About this mod

Enhanced Vanilla Ammo Boxes (EVAB) provides high-resolution retextures of Fallout 4's Ammo Boxes. Each ammunition type has its own new colour scheme and specular map. 5mm no longers comes in Ammo Crates, it has boxes like all other ammunition types.

Comes as a Replacer or a Material Swap - I'd recommend both

Caliber Labels and Rationale
  • .308 Caliber -> .308 Winchester - Self explanatory.
  • .38 Caliber -> .380 ACP - .380 ACP has a shorter case than .38 ACP, and given how small pipe weapons are I figure that they probably use this
  • .44 Caliber -> .44 Magnum - Self explanatory.
  • .45 Caliber -> .45 ACP - Probably the best known .45 variant and it's iconic.
  • .50 Caliber -> .50 BMG - It makes sense that the .50 cal would be specifically .50 BMG
  • 5mm -> 5.7x28mm - AWKCR categorizes 5mm as 5.7x28mm FN, so this label reflects that (Only included in Material Swap Version)
  • 5.56mm -> 5.56x45mm - Proper metric nomenclature, there could be many 5.56mm variants and a customer needs to know they are buying the right kind!
  • 10mm -> 10x25mm - Same rationale as 5.56.
Aesthetic Choices
You may have noticed that my boxes have silhouettes of the respective cartridge on the box as opposed to a picture, my goal was to create an easily recognizable preview of the bullet that stands out.

Additional Content
I also have some additional modules that will be in the FOMOD release.
Logical Weapons - Logical Weapons is an extension of EVAB that rechambers the Assault Rifle, Combat Rifle, and Minigun to appropriate ammunition types for each gun. The Assault Rifle is renamed "Light Machine Gun" and it along with the Minigun are chambered for a new 7.62x51mm ammunition type. The Combat Rifle becomes the default 5.56mm gun in the game. Additionally, weapons with existing conversion mods can now be converted to 7.62x51mm. As this is a separate ammo type you do not need Nuka World for this module to work.
Patches
I plan to make a patch for both FROST and Wasteland Ballistics, as well as weapon mods such as the 9mm Browning from Deadpool2099.
