WHAT IS IT?
The Combined Visible Weapons Addon Series, or C-VWAS, adds a number of FULLY-CUSTOMISABLE visible weapon apparels for Mod Weapons, which can be used together with Visible Weapons - 3rd Person Holster by registrator2000. Also compatible with the Rebel and Merc Backpacks from The Mercenary - Pack by L0rd0fWar Includes both a Combined Package (for those with all required files) as well as Individual Packages (for those who don't have all the required files). 


In addition, C-VWAS currently DOES NOT, nor ever will, require F4SE to function, and is ALWAYS COMPATIBLE with the Vanilla Skeleton and Favourites System (No need for additional replacement mods). This ensures that C-VWAS will ALWAYS be XBone-Compatible.


Packages :
- The new Combined Package simply combines all previously released Visible Weapons Addon Series (VWAS) mods into one, combined package.

- Individual Packages are more or less the same, but with slight updates. They can either be downloaded as individual files (under optional files) or as part of the combined package (should you change your mind after downloading).



Weapon Positions :



As of Update v1.6, C-VWAS supports a total of 5 weapon positions for Small Arms, as well as a thigh holster position for Pistols, 4 positions for Heavy Weapons, and a Knife Holster position for Knives.

Small Arms (Slot 58) (CLICK FOR SCREENSHOT):

- Default : 
Weapon slung across the back with muzzle pointed down, same position as Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

- Backpack : 
Weapon slung with muzzle down, next to RIGHT side of backpack.

- Patrol-Ready : Weapon slung with muzzle downwards across the front of the person. This position is similar to the positioning of weapons in Max's Visible Holstered Weapons Tactical Edition (but fully-customisable).

- Side Sling : Weapon slung with muzzle downwards on right side of waist.

- Rear-Sling : Weapon slung with muzzle downwards across the back, similar to Default, but lower. Exception being older weapons such as asXas' Lee Enfield.


Pistols/Handguns (Slot 57) :

- Thigh Holster : Thigh Holster on right thigh.

Heavy Weapons (Slot 56) :

- Default : Weapon slung vertically down on back with muzzle pointed down. 

- Backpack : 
Weapon slung with muzzle down, next to LEFT side of backpack.

- Patrol-Ready : Weapon slung with muzzle downwards across the front of the person. This position is similar to the positioning of weapons in Max's Visible Holstered Weapons Tactical Edition (but fully-customisable).

- Side Sling : Weapon slung with muzzle downwards on left shoulder, similar to the Lee Enfield.

Melee Weapons (Slot 61) :

- Hip : Knife Sheath on left hip.



TUTORIAL :
1) The (Holster) "weapon name" can be crafted at the Chem Station under the sections:


2) Once crafted, head over to the Armour Workbench to customise it to the configuration you currently have on your weapon. Includes all attachments. (As shown in screenshot). **For some weapons, you might have to choose a carrying position (One of 5 Positions) before the model becomes visible**

3) Once you're happy with the configuration, simply "Link" your outfit and weapon together like you would any other Visible Weapon (You should know the drill by now, but here's a refresher below)



***ALSO : In order to function properly, this mod requires the Visible weapons (weapon mods fix) from Holsters and sheaths by zalteredbeastz***
