Compared to the "Gun Smoke (Weapon muzzle smoke and Smoke Trails)" how is this mod with performance. Better, worse or about the same? Is there also excessively musch gun smoke so when you shoot full auto it looks like a 1700 musket battle involving 500 men.
Anyone knows how to turn off smoke on this mod? it looks cool but my pc cant handle full autos, Assault rifle and minigun to be specific. Fo4edit has no setting related to smoke, any direction in Nifskope would be great!
So from my time of using Spitfire with some modded weapons, some don't actually work correctly, most notable would be the Hunting Revolver mod by The Rizzler. The muzzle flash (the smoke and everything is working fine) isn't the nice fancy sprite it is for the other weapons, they are a muzzle flash with a black background which in my case, blocks light and is really noticable. So far the only way I've thought of why it is like this is because some mods have their own muzzle flash textures, whic is conflicting with this mod. (and I'm ngl I'm not the most tech kind of person out there, I couldn't get a mod that I got working flawlessly on Skyrim SE but not Fallout 4, so if this is the issue I'd be suprised.)
In case anyone else has the same problem that i had (broken pistol muzzles), here is a simple solution i found by playing around with the files:
1) Download the mod 2) Manually unpack the mod (with 7z) 3) Delete the file "MuzPistolSmall01.nif" from \Spitfire Working Fomod\Lite\full\Meshes\Effects\ 4) Pack the mod again with 7z 5) Install the mod via Vortex (select the "Lite" option when the popup shows up) 6) Enjoy the game with awesome muzzles on all guns
If you want to get the smaller sparks you can also replace the file from https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/63916 before you pack the mod again, so you don't need to install two mods.
BEWARE: This mod breaks all muzzle flashes on your gun mods, if you uninstall it you will not get them back, you are stuck with the new sparks and smoke effects and thats it (no more muzzle flashes at all).
Update: I was able to remove the mod via Vortex on a new game with no negative effects (got the vanilla muzzles back), so i don't know why this happened the first time, still be careful if you got a lot of visual mods installed at the same time.
