📋 About This Mod
Mod Name: Two-Handed SMGs Version: 1. 0 Date: 3/3/2009 Category: Animations Author: dd409 Description ----------- Ever think it\'s a little unrealistic that your character holds and fires a sub-machine gun with one hand? This mod changes the 10mm SMG animation to be slightly more realistic by making your character hold it with two hands instead of one. Also, because your character is now holding the SMG with two hands it will be slightly more accurate (+4% in VATS) and SMGs now benefit from the Commando perk instead of Gunslinger. Other than that, no performance changes. Due to the limitations in the G. E. C. K., this is the closest I could get to making it look natural. Sorry if it isn\'t perfect. Update: Added higher-res screenshots ;P Installation ------------ Just copy the SMG Mod.esp file to your data folder, then select it in either the data files manager or your own mod manager. Compatibility ------------- This mod (obviously) modifies the 10mm SMG and Sydney\'s 10mm \"Ultra\" SMG. This mod only affects the vanilla SMGs, and will not change the grip on any SMGs added by other mods. It should be compatible with antistar\'s Weapon Mod Kits, as long as my mod is loaded after WMK. Thanks, and be sure to comment & endorse!

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 539 endorsements and 13k downloads

⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2009 — may not work with modern Fallout 3 versions or mod setups

For Fallout 3 players who want a more realistic two-handed grip on SMGs. If you're a purist who likes vanilla animations, skip it. This is purely cosmetic and won't change stats or behavior.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's an animation mod, make sure to place it in your Data folder and enable it in the launcher or mod manager.
