As this is a skinned weapon it doesn't work well with Classic Holstered Weapons. If you have CHW enabled you will most likely get a CTD (possibly at the workbench) if you do not exclude it.
From Reisstc: You can keep CHW active if you add "ExcludedWeaponFormId_Crossbow=Crossbow.esp|F9C" to the bottom of ClassicHolsteredWeaponsConfig.ini without quotes.
Thanks to Reisstc as I do not use CHW so hadn't tested it.
Hello, this mod is not usable in Power Armor 3rd person, so I made a personal edit I hope this helps the mod https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mYLJR27qVzqwlPgPF0Qq75uC96XgkwCt/view?usp=sharing
Tip: the fix above also removes crossbows from well funded groups (BoS, Gunners, Institute, maybe more).
Then 'added "no workbench crash" and "no holstered crossbow on back" to bottom of ClassicHolsteredWeaponsConfig.ini ExcludedWeaponFormId_Crossbow_Crossbow=Crossbow.esp|001805 ExcludedWeaponFormId_Crossbow=Crossbow.esp|F9C
Dreadmorg, The Ammo switching only seemed to work for me reliably when I owned a single Crossbow. If I had more than one crossbow stored in my inventory, ammo switching via a double reload stopped working. I would suggest scrapping or removing any additional crossbows from your inventory, and then see if that gets ammo switching working for you.
Does anybody know how to remove the crossbow from the leveled list? Almost all gunners in my playthrough now have or use crossbow. They should change their faction from Gunners to Crossbowmen.
Also anybody knows how to switch bolts? I try pressing the reload button twice and there's a confirmation about changing bolts but I'm still using the same field bolt. I have several explosive and storm bolts in my inventory.
I'm no expert but you can go in FO4Edit, look for the tab QUEST in your loaded crossbow.esp and exclude the entries you want there. Gotta look for the entries. I believe you could exclude QUEST too if you like without any major bugs, it would exclude the crossbow completely from the leveled lists.

just wanted to see if there was a chance this mod could be ported over to xbox by one of the trusted porters active at the moment.
i understand it uses f4se but alot of mods released with said changes, have now been able to be made/ported over to console like IAF for example.
if there is any chance of this it would be greatly appreciated and also understandable if not :)
were really lacking on the crossbow department and this is by far the best example of it
once again thank you for the mod and your hard work.
