📋 About This Mod
Repairable Gauss Rifle v1. 01 HawaiinYeti ======================= By default, the Gauss Rifle is only repairable by other Gauss Rifles. Seeing as there are no other Gauss Rifles in the Wasteland, this can quickly lead to a broken weapon. All I\'ve done is change the Repair Form List of the Rifle to another one that includes Spare Parts, Plasma and Laser weapons, both Pistols and Rifles. The Operation: Anchorage DLC is, obviously, required for this to work. Instalation ======================= To install, simply extract to your Fallout3/Data/ folder and enable in your Data Files on the Fallout3 Launcher or in the Fallout Mod Launcher Changelog ======================= v1. 01 - Added Gauss Rifle back onto the repair list (Just in case any other mod adds more or any of the other DLCs add more for whatever reason), Fixed compatibility with backpack mods. v1 - Initial release. Changed repair list to include Plasma and Laser guns, both pistols and rifles, as well as Scrap Metal.
A small Fallout 3 mod that enables repairing the Gauss Rifle in the Wasteland. With 223 endorsements and over 5,500 downloads, it's a niche utility for players who want to maintain this unique weapon without relying on merchants. Simple and to the point.
