[INTRO]
I love the original Conversions mod, but it adds a lot of munitions ammos that don't have their dedicated weapons, and many I felt weren't realistic or not lore friendly.
So, here, I edited the original mod and cut it down 75%, leaving only the additional ammos to the pipe weapons, based around which ammos DegenerateDak has used in his weapon mods.
I made this for myself a while back, but I will update according to dak's uploads and when I'm back to playing fallout.
[WHAT THIS DOES]
The original mod adds 99 receivers, and uses pretty much every single munitions ammo, here, I only kept receivers that use .22, .32, 9mm, 10mm, .357, 44-40, .30 and 30-06, simply because I use gun mods that require them.
The added receivers are:
Pipe Bolt-action - 30-06; 44-40; .30
Pipe Revolver - 30-06; .357; .32
Pipe Gun - .30; .22; 9mm; 7.62 Tokarev (this last one was added by me)
I also cut down from the original mod every feature I felt were unnecessary, leaving only the gun mods recipes/objects and munitions LL injections. This also means this mod requires no additional asset use, so you can use this standalone without downloading the original, but please do a leave him an endorsement.
[REASONING]
Pipe weapons are mostly crude, handmade post-war creations. They are resourceful scrap weapons, designed to utilize the limited resources available in the post-apocalypse. It makes sense that they would build guns around the ammunition available to them.
Meanwhile, what we see in game are mostly common ammos and weapons, the conversions mod adds in a lot of rare ammo types, many of which are only used by pipe guns, with their original gun nowhere to be seen, this is unrealistic to me.
Also, many of the ammo conversions to pre-war weapons were unrealistic, a lot of conversions to these other vanilla weapons were already covered by The Attachment Pack, so I decided to not touch those here.
[REQUIREMENTS - COMPATIBILITY]
This mod of only requires Munitions and The Attachment Pack. It also doesn't require but was built around the attach pack implementation patch, plus Attachment Pack Unofficial Expansion and Refinement.
This mod is of course not compatible with the original Conversions mod, but its recommended you use that mod instead, its much more feature complete.
