https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/68248?tab=files Same implementation as the scripted version, includes it too, so you don't need both. Should cover all the relevant TTW weapons and uses the same reach numbers for comparable weapons. Auto axe = chainsaw, PL Axe = Fire axe, Zeta batons = police batons etc. If any of the numbers seem off let me know.
Really nice mod, been super fun for my melee playthrough? My only question is, how come the straight razor and switchblade, while admittedly very short blades, are shorter than being unarmed? Nitpicky I know, but it is a realism mod and suppose was just curious about this since a knife would have a little bit more reach than a glove or your actual fists.
Had CTD's, after disabling the Optional version I didn't have them anymore. Haven't tested the Main version. Just gonna live without this one. More than likely a compatibility issue with what I have installed but if you're getting crashes it wouldn't hurt to double check this mod
What do you mean? Does that mod also fix the reach of melee weapons independent of each other? It does have a reach multiplier, but it seems like a simple universal multiplier that doesn't fix the differences between different weapons, or does it?
With this, for example - https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/65960 But, it works with everything. Don't worry. Just make sure to make Merged Patch. Scripted version is compatible with everything on fly.
Looks good, only issue is that it doesn't have TribalPack.esm as a master and thus injects its own copy of the WeapPreordMachete, which will conflict with other mods that change it - the Preorder Packs have vanilla FormIDs and this tends to happen often if you clean masters in FNVEdit. I made an edited version if you want me to send it to you, or you can fix it yourself pretty easily.
The only issue would be that it could overwrite other mods that change the weapon, and adding Tribal Pack as a master would remove the need for the additional weapon record. If you're making a deliberate change to the weapon, you don't need TribalPack.esm as a master, but if you'd rather maintain maximum compatibility, I don't think it would hurt.
Yeah that's understandable, would only really be an issue if you use WMX and have no idea how to make a Bashed or Merged Patch, which by itself is a recipe for a very broken game. Thanks for the update, by the way.
Yes exactly, I'm just overly obsessed with my notion of "compatibility" and figured if even one person were to install this incorrectly and then complain that their machete wasn't working, it'd be a waste of your time. I was pretty unclear, and ironically, ended up being the one wasting your time instead. Sorry about that.
I made a version of your plugin for FNVEdit: Apply Melee Reach Fixes.pas. If you know how to apply scripts in FNVEdit, you can use that script to patch the reach data in any plugin directly, eliminating compatibility issues. The other method is to add the "Stats" bash tag to your plugin, so that Wrye Flash merges your reach fixes, and only your reach fixes, into the bashed patch.
I run WMX and would love to run this mod because as you said in your description, the melee reach on the weapons is a little absurd, so if you can make this patch that would be most awesome!
Will there maby be a patch for WMX? I think WMX adds modifications to most of the mods listed. Great mod btw, I was trying to make a assassin type character with a silencer 10mm and a combat knife. This mod fixes the combat knife.
Actually WMX might be compatible. I haven't tested it yet, but since it's all about adding modifications, it may be that the mod doesn't change the base data of the weapons.

Pretty please? :)

Why not upload it to Nexus? i think a lot of people would appreciate this! :D

The reason I'm asking because I have some weapon related mods. WMX, bugfixes, etc.
But, it works with everything. Don't worry. Just make sure to make Merged Patch.
Scripted version is compatible with everything on fly.
Edit: Now uploaded as an optional file to this page, thanks naugrim04!
Load it up in FNVEdit and you'll see it shares the same FormID, and YUP fixes have been forwarded.
The mod is still scripted, so it doesn't matter if you load other mods that change the weapon after it, the script will still modify its reach.
