I'm seeing the weapon in vendors and the pre set locations but for some reason the NCR Rangers won't spawn with it, I don't have mods that edit their level lists so I'm not sure what it could be.
I downloaded this on a whim because there was an animation replacer for it, and its quickly become one of my favorite rifle mods, the power, the sound of the weapon, the fact that the bullets are projectiles and you watch them fly out with a trail in VATS, its just so damn good.
Does the .264 projectile type suppose to not have "hitscan" flag on it? Cause it doesn't, and thus it's affected by gravity. It can look weird if you don't have any ballistics mods. I was confused by this rifle having a bullet drop, when i clearly don't have any ballistics mod installed. I quickly edited it in fnvedit, so no problem for me, but it can confuse people.
Yes, I intended it to have non-hitscan projectiles so it has its own custom settings for drop, and the varmint grenade projectiles have particle effects so they have to be non-hitscan.
Thanks. I understand it now. I just decided to ditch ballistics mods some time ago for simplicity sake. (Maybe i'll get back to it in the future.) For now i just put hitscan flag on the normal .264 projectile, and set the gravity to 0 for varmint grenade, so it would still have a smoke trail, but no drop. By the way, there's this mod that adds smoke trail to all projectiles by the script and doesn't care for hitscan flag. Maybe it's the better way? But i guess if you want to have ballistics it's not. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/75122
Beautiful mod, and finally gave me the perfect sniper style rifle I was looking to use for myself and Boone. One request though, would you be interested in making a version that uses .300 Win Mag instead? Personally I see that as a more lore friendly and realistic ammunition option.
