About this mod

This is pretty much a complete redo of a mod I made back in 2019, Skyrim GUNMOD Redux Part 2 - .44 Magnum, that I was never really satisfied with. Now with scripts it functions a lot better!

Big Iron - .44 Magnum and Mysterious Magnum
Gone are the days when the Dragonborn had to rely on swords and magic to take down his foes. As if the he wasn't badass enough, now he has a big iron on his hip to accompany him on his adventures across Tamriel. The future of the Dragonborn is here. Lets see how tough Alduin is with a cap in his ass.


Description

First off, for those of you who may not be too experienced with modding this game, to make this gun I had to use a staff as a starting point. So at its core it will function like a staff, in other words, it uses staff animations. However, luckily for all of us, there's a great pistol animation mod, made by gaju, that replaces staff animations to counter that small issue. It's not required, the staff animations work fine and I didn't alter the mesh in NifSkope to work with the pistol animations. The gun mesh is designed to work with the standard staff animations. If you want to use the pistol animations you'll have to edit the mesh yourself to work with them. I did this assuming most people would opt to keep the standard animations. Update: I got off my lazy ass and edited the mesh myself so you don't have to! You can find the download under Optional Files on the Files tab. There's a full guide on how to use NifSkope to alter the mesh for the new animations on that mod's page, found here.

Both the .44 Magnum and the legendary Mysterious Magnum can be crafted at any forge. the .44 Magnum requires the Steel Smithing perk is crafted with steel and firewood, the Mysterious Magnum is crafted with steel, firewood, and a daedric heart. It requires the Daedric Smithing perk. They both fire 6 shots before depleting and can be reloaded with .44 Magnum ammo, which is also craftable at any forge. Both weapons can also be upgraded.

I know its kinda lame to just have them craftable at a forge, unfortunately, I'm not xEdit savvy enough to make a badass quest to go along with them or anything. However, that being said, if anyone wants to make a quest mod centered around the guns, or just wants to use them in their own mod for whatever reason, I invite them to do so!
Please feel free! Screenshots, videos, etc. are always welcome as well!
