Description
In the vanilla game mini nukes and rockets can sometimes destroy a limb but nothing can destroy a torso. Worse yet frequently while running around in the waste if I nuke someone from orbit their bodies are typically completely intact and look seemingly untouched. After some digging into this immersive breaking behavior I found that in the vanilla game you can only destroy a torso of a NPC if you have the bloody mess perk and then if you softly punch a guys foot, his head can fall off and his body explode which makes no sense.
Whats Included
This mod adds a new level of destruction and immersion. Basically Big Guns like rocket launches and mini nukes (all Big Gun heavy explosive weapons) will always destroy a body in various destructive ways with rare exceptions. Either the limbs will get blow off and explode or the torso will explode into a thousand pieces turning the body into mush. Big Guns like mini guns and Gatling laser guns (every non-explosive Big Gun including the junk jet and broadsider etc.) will also explode a torso at a 1 in 4 chance if you target the torso or limbs near the torso.
Additionally I have upgraded the 50 cal modification to keep pace with the Big Guns by completely reworking it. Specifically, the 50 caliber modification has had its audio digitally remastered using an actual 50 caliber shot recording that has been studio enhanced for the game and includes a new silenced 50 cal sound effect. The 50 cal without a doubt is now one of the loudest guns without a silencer and you will feel like you are welding a tank killer. The impact visuals have also been modified which now give an explosive impact effect fitting the 50 caliber rifle and adds an additional 15 points of damage to the gun. But I didn't stop there. 50 caliber rifles also have a chance to explode the torso when hit and are very likely to explode limbs as well in similar fashion to the non-explosive big guns. (Please note that head shots will just explode the head not the torso or limbs)
As a bonus all other weapons have been modified so that limbs don't randomly fall off. Basically bullets can explode limbs just like the vanilla game, but a 10mm etc. shot to the head will NOT result in the head getting cut off and instead WILL result in the head exploding thus fixing what I consider to be a vanilla defect. Swords etc of course will still cut off limbs but will no longer explode limbs. Finally small caliber weapons like the .38 etc will not explode a limb. This mod should bring a new level of realism to your game and more fun. You can still modify these guns any way you want and legendary versions of these guns still apply the legendary effect.

Compatibility
No one to my knowledge has fixed this issue so there should be no conflicts and will be compatible with most mods out there. That said note the follwoing:
- This mod will apply the explosion effect only to vanilla big guns which is 6 guns in total - look in xEdit if you are worried about another mod overwriting these vanilla guns. I would just make sure my 6 gun edits here win over anything else
- All other gun edits are again just for vanilla guns and prevent guns from cutting off limbs and will instead explode them. You again can check xEdit to see if someone is overwriting these edits but these are minor and it wont really matter if you overwrite these edits. its just a small fix I provide.
- My changes are compatible with legendary modifications to guns, and any vanilla gun modification made at the workbench
- If you want my explosion effect on a New Gun created by a mod author then just make the patch dependent on my mod so you can copy my ability from my big guns over to that gun - it will take you a second to do and I have open permissions for patches requiring my mod.
If you have a preferred audio file for the 50 Caliber you can overwrite mine without issue. My audio for what its worth is a Ultra HD high quality audio of a actual 50 Caliber rifle. If in doubt just place my mod lower in your load order and everything will work.
