📋 About This Mod

- What does this do?

------------------

Modded the guns from Frederyck Tactical Weapons to use CALIBR ammo. Needs the CALIBR mod (obviously) Didn't touch anything else, credits go to Frederyck!

Link to the CALIBR mod (http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3447)

Was annoyed that I had all those fancy guns Frederyck made but no ammo to use them, so installed GECK and switches their ammo to that of CALIBR.

- Installation

-----------------

Just toss the esp into your Fallout 3 Data folder and make it load instead of Frederycks standard .esp.

So basically check out Frederycks tac. guns mod (http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3796) and make sure you install it with his instructions. Then override his esp with mine. Make sure you have Calibr mod load.

- Ammo details

---------------

I checked the wiki for the guns to see what ammo they used. Only time I strayed was with the MP5. CALIBR has 9x19 ammo, but the WIKI for the mp5 said it also uses 10mm ammo, since Fallout already has 10mm ammo IG.. I made it use that =)

- Will this f* up.. <insert something>?

-----------------------

I have no idea. I basically whipped up GECK, loaded the master file for Fallout and CALIBR, loaded up Frederycks ESP and switched each gun's ammo to CALIBR ammo. Should work without problems.

-Known bugs:

-------------

If you already got one of the guns in your inventory the old ammo will still be used. Dunno how to fix, I think fallout3 'remembers' the stats of the guns in your inventory. Junk your old gun and buy a new one. Get your lost bottlecaps back with the Console. (google .fallout 3 console commands.. lazy dude)

- Version change list.

----------------------

V. 1 - Makes all the guns use CALIBR ammo.

V. 1. 1 - The MP5N4 and its silenced counterpart had gone from the vendors inventory, v1. 1 fixes this.

V. 2 - The original mod contains some ammo boxes placed randomly in the world, packed with ammo. Alas, its the old ammo. V2 replaces it with CALIBR ammo.

V. 2. 1 - Adds random amounts of CALIBR ammo to the inventory of the most well known weapon vendors (lucky harith, moira, gustav, etc) Att: Only the ammo actually used by freds guns will be added and the ammo for the Dragunov mod (so if you don't use that mod then that ammo will be useless.)

- Thanks to..

---------------

Frederyck for his work on the guns!

Bethesda for Fallout 3!

Hamsters, for looking so damn cute and running into your sleeve and shit.
