About this mod

A redux of Sean_S' M79 mod! Complete with New textures, attachments, animations, you know the drill. The most low quality explosive mod you'll ever find on nexus.

Requirements
Permissions and credits


[Excerpt about the M79 I grabbed off Wikipedia]
You guys probably already know what the M79 is. The Bloop tube, Bloop Gun, Thumper, Grenade Rifle, whatever. This mod adds a low quality (because I made it) M79 into the game under the name “Thumper”. Not calling it Grenade rifle because I know PBW will have a proper Grenade Rifle recreation at some point. Plus the Grenade rifle in NV has some differences in terms of design. 


==================================================================================================
As of the Next Gen update. 40mm is now in the game! I'll patch for it after it gets patches and such.
Due to Fallout 4 not having Grenade shells, this mod will require either of these two ammo frameworks  
NO I WILL NOT SUPPLY A VERSION THAT ADDS IN 40MM. YOU SHOULD BE USING EITHER OF THESE TWO IF YOU WANT GRENADE LAUNCHERS IN YOUR GAME CURRENT YEAR. 

If this is such a hindrance to your simplistic and stable 500+ modlist with 50+ weapon mods,feel free to make a patch to add
in standalone 40mm. I left in the files and esp entries to do so.
=============================================================================================================================


With that being said.

This mod aims to breathe new life to the M79 - Standalone weapon by Sean_S. I even went as far as to find the original listing on Unity’s Asset Store to re-export the textures. So not only will it have new assets and animations, but a new look as well! A good portion of the implementation has been stemmed from Antistar’s painstaking work in WARS - Weapon Addition and Replacement Suite. Without him this mod wouldn’t even be a thing. Please be sure to visit the mod and give it an endorsement or even a playthrough. However this isn’t just a rip of WARS as I tried my best to adapt my balance philosophy to the M79 as well as expanding the attachment selection. Not too much but enough.



                                      This mod contains                                 

  • 5 Receivers with their own uses
  • 3 Barrels
  • 4 Stocks
  • 3 Sight Options (With Glow sight colors)
  • 4 Reflex Options (With Reticle Variants)
  • 2 Scopes
  • 2 Muzzlebrakes
  • 9 Skins (+9 Clean skins on Saint Sean’s Special)

Saint Sean’s Special similar to its previous iteration is located in Gorski’s Cabin, however the legendary effect is changed. Due to me doing away with the Grenade types, it’s now a Berserker legendary.

“But wait isn’t Berserker for melee weapons?”

Well funny you ask, you can make the Thumper a potent bashing weapon with the right combinations! And even then, Berserker actually works with any weapon type! Though the damage increase isn’t displayed. This means you can make glass cannon builds with this puppy. Have fun making naked Grenadier builds. 

How does it fire?

Both Munitions and Explosives complex have pretty accurate projectiles for 40mm. Meaning you'll have to actually lead your shots. It's kinda had to do it in third person but it is possible. 

Yes it works in Power Armor, works pretty fine in third person as well.

“Where do I get them”

  • Raider and Gunner bosses love them. Starting from level 20. 
  • Minutemen will also get them Level 30
  • KLEO also sells em at level 30

FAQ

Q: "This isn't realistic in the slightest"
A: Cry About it

Q: Some random bethesda bad comment
A: Reddit is down the hall and to the left.

Q: Can you make a vanilla version?
A: no make your own.

Q: Can I translate this mod?
A: Sure!

Q: Can I patch this for another ammo mod or my favorite overhaul?
A: Sure!

Q: What's with the third person animations?
A: They're a very quick conversion from first person. Antistar didn't really spend much time with them because you don't really see them in actual gameplay. (which I agree)

Q: Why does my grenades drop like a rock?
A: That's kinda how the nades act. Aim higher.
