📋 About This Mod
=============== Description =============== This Mod is a replacer for the default Laser Pistols and Rifles. It will cause all in game models to be changed to the smaller, leaner version. This makes it much easier to see your enemies in first person mode. The weapons no longer block half your screen when equipped. I think they look better too. It also increases the damage done by the Laser Rifles to be midway between the damage done by hunting rifles and plasma rifles. Better than hunting rifle, not as good as plasma rifle. Originally the laser did less damage while being more uncommon and more valuable. This didn\'t make sense to me for game balance. It is a small change and doesn\'t unbalance the game. Since it is a replacer, be warned, you may want to target enemies with laser rifles first. I added a unique laser rifle to the game. It is comparable to other unique rifles for specs. e.g. the A-321 Plasma Rifle, Lincoln Repeater, Backwater Rifle. See Images for the graphics. =============== Location =============== The new Unique Laser Rifle \"Black Widow\", can be found in Germantown Police Headquarters, ground floor, Contraband room. The door is locked \"average\". =============== Requirements =============== Regular Version -Fallout 3 -I recommend using FO3 Patch 1. 7 since this is the patch version I have used in creating it. -You must use ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated (or FOMM equivalent) to avoid any problems with textures. =============== Install/Uninstall =============== To install,unzip the folder and copy the contents to the fallout 3 data folder.
