📋 About This Mod

The Weapon Enhancement Pack is still one of the best and most ambitious weapon retextures on the FO3 Nexus. To make it even better, I added full Iron Sight Plus support, and tweaked the UVs to make the weapons less dark. I also updated it

When it came to weapon retextures, Christopher Wallace was right up there with Millenia, in my opinion. His energy weapons in particular were fantastic. And to this day, nobody has retextured the plasma weapons better than him. Off course, progress cannot be stopped, and WEP has to move with the times. The weapons, while still great, were simply too dark. Even in broad daylight, it was hard to make out the details. I upped the UVs ever so slightly to make things more acceptable - not by much. Just enough.

But adding support for Iron Sight Plus was probably the most important. Modders want New Vegas style ironsights with their weapons, and I'm more than willing to oblige. This involved a lot of work though. Some weapons didn't have sighting nodes (like the Xuanlong and Wild Bill sidearm), which meant their aim was way off. Others were still using models meant for RH Ironsights, so they were laughably small when compared to their unmodded counterparts. These include Autumn's laser pistol, Protectron's Gaze, Smuggler's End and Wazer Wifle. Essentially, I kept the textures but made them use the newer model from Iron Sight Plus.

There were other fixes as well. For example, the regular laser pistol still used the texture from Iron Sight Plus. It's essentially just vanilla, but with a slightly-improved model. So I altered its entry to work with WEP's retexture. And Christopher Wallace didn't even give the Metal Blaster a retexture at all. So I fixed that as well. Lastly, I know some of you hate that I made the patch dependent on UUF3, but it's one of the most important fixes for Fallout 3. It's essential, and I will not bother explaining myself to people who bemoan this requirement. Moving on.

INSTALLATION:

Pay attention; along with UUF3 and Iron Sight Plus, you also need to download three things from the original mod.

1. Weapon Enhancement Pack

2. WEP Vanilla Uniques

3. WEP Vanilla Uniques for the Pitt DLC

Don't delete anything from the original files. My mod will not replace the two esp's, so keep UniqueWeaponsRetextured.esp and UniqueWeaponsRetexturedPITT.esp in your load order, and make sure they are both enabled.

After that, download and install my patch. Make sure it's below WEP and Iron Sight Plus in the load order. The same goes for the plugins.

IMPORTANT MUST READ:

The Plasma Rifle and A3-21 have a glitch wh
