Overview:
This small mod changes the TTW hunting rifle to use 5.56mm. The primary value of this is to disconnect it from other .32 weapons' balancing, and cause it makes a lil more sense than it using pistol rounds.
It's damage has been reduced from the ludicrous 37 to 20 instead, to hover around the same damage as the service rifle.
Worldspace and interior placements of the rifle that were near .32 ammo have had that ammo disabled and replaced with 5.56mm.
Recommended for use with TTW .32 Caliber Weapons Pack, so that .32 becomes a plentiful pistol/SMG ammo. Ensure that this file loads after the 32 pack's esp if using it.
There is also a version that uses GaigeStorm's Mauser M18 model and sounds.
Requirements:
Just TTW for the main file.
GaigeStorm's Mauser M18 is required for the M18 file.
Installation:
Regular installation.
Please endorse and vote if you appreciate the mod.
If using the M18 file, make sure to disable or delete GS M18.esp.
Load Order:
Any of my files not listed here don't have any load order considerations in relation to my other mods.
The listed mods which aren't by me are ones I always have active and need specific LO considerations; if you don't have them, that's fine.
It is highly recommended that you check for conflicts with this file yourself in FNVEdit to ensure that this file is placed lower than any conflicting ones.
If you are seeing NPCs showing up with the wrong ammo or the gun uses the wrong ammo when you use it, try placing this mod practically last, but just before any weather mod you have.
Patches:
Patches are available for AWOP F3 and Wasteland Starting Gear DC.
I will not be making patches for more mods, except cases in my own mods that need patching.
Compatibility:
Natively compatible with DC Arsenal - DC Arsenal distributes a base game WithAmmo list, so it will automatically provide 5.56mm with the rifle when this mod is loaded.
Limitations:
Mods which give NPCs the rifle and ammo directly instead of using base TTW WithAmmo lists will need to be patched. This is trivial to do in FNVEdit - please do so yourself if you run into cases of NPCs not having the required ammo to use their weapon.
Questions:
Scripted patch system for mods that aren't patched for it?
Considered it, but ultimately decided I don't care enough to bother.
Permissions:
Do whatever.
