On the ocean coast between Nordhagen beach and Fort Strong three red shipping containers have washed up ashore. Rumors are spreading that they may contain enough ammo and rifles to re-arm a small
army. However these whispers of weapons have been heard by raiders, the Triggermen and a mysterious man named Bubba --
can you make it there before they do?

SKS Redux contains:

• #############################*SPOILERS BELOW*##################################
  

• - 4 Custom load screens, so keep an eye out for them!
• - A copious amount of real world variants, and sadly some actual horrific modifications people have made to their SKS
• - This means many material swaps and 1.7GB of HD textures there is a 2K textures option
• - Custom animations that I've either made or borrowed, I think they're good enough but some could be better - so if you want to help I'd love that!
• - 6 new magazines hidden around the CW that will allow you to build special sks variants
• - A few custom NPC's - A few Diamond City Guards actually carry custom variant SKS' and two Raider Boss' with custom variants
• - The Nordhagen beach shipping containers have been updated and rebalanced - you need to actually repair the SKS to get it working
• - There is a small cave alp Orfdwhg dorqj wkh poo wrs erughu ri pds - Good luck finding it! - with a secret inside
• - You probably didn't make it before everyone else, I'm sorry, that's life - that means the SKS has proliferated (scripted injection) through the commonwealth's levelled lists starting at level 15 (weaker variants)
• - There are custom painted SKS' added to The Pack levelled list as well, and some SKS' added to other Nuka Town raiders
• - There is probably more that I can add later or you can discover while exploring this mod!

     ########################*IMPORTANT TECHNICAL DETAILS*##############################

 

• Please note there are A LOT of attachments and skins, in order to see/access them all you need to have
  your current SKS you want to modify equipped. This is a Bethesda side bug as far as I know so there isn't much I can do about it.

•  If you have the M1 Garand Mod or SVT mod, load this mod after them to avoid any conflicts - I haven't heard of any so far, but just in case
  

 

• I've updated the sound data in xEdit in the newest version 1.0.5 , hopefully this solves the weird muddy sound bug once and for all
  

 

• I've update the way the sounds work in the newest version. Give it shot to see if they sound more substantial.
  If you still have sound issues - try the optional file included in the files section (I don't know why this is happening, the loose sound files are included
  if you want to fiddle with them yourself to see what you can figure out)
   
  

• The Laser Garand may conflict with my SKS animations - targetedfox posted a patch
  

• One last thing, if you experience stutter with 4K try the 2K, if you still have stutter try upgrading your memory to a faster read/write speed.  GPUs don't matter as much in Fallout 4 compared to your SSD or HDD read  write speed when loading textures, meshes and materials - I'll be  working on downscaling the least important textures even more

A special thank you to all the amazing creators who made the SKS possible outside of the community, consider donating to them before me

I made the stripper clip reload animations, the paratrooper stock and handle (minus the tape), and a few more things from scratch.
The rest is a modification or rework of open source work, or work I obtained permission to use. Some pieces are literally the original.

If I missed you please let me know, because again, without you this mod wouldn't exist!
