<<< PREFACE >>>

My favourite weapon mod for Fallout 4, finally overhauled as well. This iteration isn't identical to the one from WIP, there are several parts that got changed, extended and improved. If you're missing something or want to see certain things changed/improved and got some constructive feedback feel free to share it with us in the Posts section.

I hope you'll enjoy the mod. Thanks for reading.


<<< OVERVIEW >>>

The goal of this project is to balance and fix (mostly lore-friendly) weapon mods, integrate them (better) into the game and in some cases expand on their features. So, the key aspects are as follows:

• Balance the weapons and their attachments roughly around the vanilla game so that they don't feel out of place in that environment or even invalidate every other alternative due to an insane power level.
• Fix all bugs caused by incorrectly set up records in the mod's plugin. Often WOP also fixes inconsistencies, either to make them consistent with other weapons/attachments from the same mod or with vanilla weapons.
• Integrate them into the game's leveled item system via scripted injection. The original mods already come with leveled item injections in most cases, but often they're lacking or even broken one way or another.
• Extend on the variety of configurations a weapon can spawn with. Make them spawn in certain configurations depending on where or in whose hands they spawn in. Or add a bit of randomness to the mix.
• Improve on attachment categories that are lacking, for example a magazine/ammo slot getting new ammo conversion options. Or separate mechanics that were bundled in a single slot but got the ability to be controlled separate from one another.
• Utilise ECO as a framework and integrate the weapons into those systems to allow for additional functionality, optimisation, and overall a more enjoyable gameplay experience.

<<< USAGE NOTES >>>

This mod contains an ESL-flagged ESP plugin that contains all the changes and improvements. All custom assets are packed into an BA2 archive.

< INSTALL >

For starters, refer to the Requirements section above and make sure you meet the two requirements. Then you can proceed.

Automated:
Download, install, and enable with your preferred mod manager.

Manual:
If you want to install this mod manually, download the file and unpack it with a tool that can process 7zip files. 7-Zip or NanaZip are both great choices. When all files are put in your game's Data folder, make sure that this mod's plugin loads after all mods listed under Requirements in your load order.
Be aware that I won't offer any support if you go for the manual install and in case something isn't working as expected.

< FIRST-TIME SETUP >

• For the intended and best experience it is recommended to use this mod in a playthrough that hasn't installed the Service Rifle mod already, or to start a new playthrough.
• By installing this into a playthrough that already has been using the Service Rifle, you might break weapons that were already spawned in. If that happens your best bet is to replace the broken weapon instances with new ones.
• If you're installing this mod in a playthrough where the original mod has already been in use, the original leveled item injection has already taken place. This mod's injection won't do anything then, to prevent a second injection from happening and way too many Service Rifles spawning.
  

< RECOMMENDED MODS >

• Leveled Item Framework (LIF): If you have LIF installed this mod will enable additional leveled item injections. Without LIF those injections will be skipped.
• Munitions - ECO: Apply all of Munitions' new ammo types dynamically to any weapon, including the ones from this mod.
• Tactical Reload - ECO or Tactical Reload - Ingame Switch: If you want to make use of Tactical Reload and already have the required animation files, you can use one of the two mods to enable Tactical Reload on all those guns.
  

< COMPATIBILITY >

Incompatible with mods that replace the original plugin or modify things within it via overrides. The following record categories are most affected by potential conflicts:

• Constructible Object or COBJ (basically all the recipes)
• Object Modification or OMOD (mod/attachments)
• Weapon or WEAP (weapon base forms)
  

Simple texture, material, model, animation and sound changes are fine.

< FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS >

Can I update this mod mid-playthrough?
Yes, updates in a running play-through are possible and recommended unless the changelog specifically says otherwise. So, for your own good, form a habit of reading Patch Notes / Change Logs before updating any mod. That saves you from a lot of trouble in the long term.

How do I update this mod?
The same way as any other mod. Your mod manager (usually Vortex or Mod Organizer 2) can update mods automatically. In addition to that make sure to read the changelog before you update. In some rare cases updates in an already running play-through should be done with caution. There is a warning in the changelog when that case applies.
If you're managing your mods manually then simply override the old files from the previous version with the new ones. But keep in mind that I won't provide support in that case.
