I do want to point out that on some mods realigning the sight may malign where the bullet lands. Unlike real life, aligning the mesh will not realign the animations and the bullet trajectory that may be slightly off. So your shots may all be landing slightly below or above the iron sight in game. You may want to test the trajectory, or if anyone has further knowledge on please correct me.
Yes, thank you, you're absolutely right, I was definitely aware of that potential hiccup. I've tested it for a bit to make sure adjusting the sight wouldn't mess up where the bullets end up (I'm actually using it for my new playthrough). From my tests, the aiming is not only ok but even feel better than before, shots are landing closer to where you aim, taking its given accuracy into account, of course. (and animations aren't affected). Before you would aim with the front sight while having the rear sight higher than your target.
I haven't check but I guess at the nif level, the projectile spawner position is aligned to the barrel anyway, so that's good. But if you're still on the fence, you could crank up the accuracy to crazy levels in Fo4Edit and shoot at things. I haven't tried this yet, since as I said, aiming feels not just good but a smidge better than before.
So I was actually correct xD I was also thinking the iron sight looking kinda off. Sadly there is no laser attachement for it, otherwise I could tell you for 100% if or where the bullet is hitting where you're aiming. But it really looks like the allighn you made is as good as it is. _________________________________________________________ I just watched a video from kentucky balistics (1911 exploded, when gunds go boom) and there was a nowadays modern smith and wesson version of the 1911, which was looking TOTALLY Awesome! Besides all argueing about the outdated 45.acp and accuracy of the 1911s the one who invented the gun must have had a nick for art. So I decided I want to have one in the game eventually. xD
I Have to agree, BHs 1911 is really currently the best one with the most attachements (if you really want a original 1911). Not saying the other mods are bad, but they released them on old time where cration kit and else wasn't out yet and the details of the gun is the most clean + animations and else. In addition I already had the USP installed so it was quite comfortable for me, AND it is even working with the "Loads of ammo" mod without any issues if you change your caliber. (Just increased the base damage a bit myself to compensate for the lower mag capacity and firerate compared to the USP)
* Though I'd love and welcome if someone would create a new modern one like the smith and wesson version with glow sights.
