Anyone remembers the awesome high quality chainsaw by jobra888 and Weijiesen? 
Well, here it is: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/58288/?

However, there was no Gun Runners Arsenal patch provided that would make the weapon use the chainsaw mods from the dlc, thus having players still stuck with the horrible looking vanilla version with mods. I have now corrected this, and with jobra888's permission I decided to share it with you.


Installation: 

Step 1: Install XChainsaw with smoke-effect version from the link above, otherwise this mod won't work. YOU MUST USE THE REPLACER VERSION which is in that download.

Step 2: Download, extract, and put the Data folder of this mod into your Fallout New Vegas folder (usually located in your Steam folder - Steam/SteamApps/common/fallout new vegas/). Then activate the .esp plugin in your mod manager. Make sure it doesn't conflict with any other mods that alter the GRA chainsaw, otherwise the mod won't work.

The esp is required to remove the 1st person model textures in order to ensure the weapon looks the way it should in 1st person.


Credits: jobra888 for the chainsaw mesh and textures, Weijiesen for the smoke effect FX, and me for editing the meshes, alloy frame texture, and creating the esp.

I hope you enjoy the mod :)
