So why didn't i recommend EVE? Personal tastes really. That and from what i've been told by experienced mod developers, it can cause save bloating over time which can cause issues late into your playthrough. However when i used EVE in the past, i never experienced those issues. Or maybe i did and just didn't notice.
It's guns are also very buggy and have broken meshes. And the amount of work to get it to work with WMIM and some animation mods aren't worth the effort imo. Don't get me wrong though, it's a very good mod, it has great texture work and effects, so if you are using it already, keep doing so! Don't let me stop you!
