📋 About This Mod
This mod provides several ammo counter options.
Every gun require own patch, so please see Articles - I tried my best to write something understandable for you.
(Don't forget I'm russki whose native language is obviously not English)
I'm also made some patches to make an example of work and showcase for modders in practice how this framework works.
Feel free to make patches and widespread them on Nexus.
Also, I'm ok if my patches will not be good in your experience, so feel free to remake them.
In the future, all my weapon mods will have this framework as master, to prevent creating a lot of versions and combinations. But you can unmaster them and share if you wish.
Known issues:
Ammo Counter shows 00 after start game and first save loading - reequip weapon, reload (if possible), or fire the weapon. Scripting limitations.
Bolt-action-like weapons (rifles, shotguns etc, and patched to BCR too) are not supported by ACF because of extra animation events which confuse counter system. Don't even try it, useless.
Work only with newly spawned/created weapon reference, because of attached script. Sorry for the inconvenience.
SPECIAL THANKS GOES TO:
Scrivener07 for ammo counter script example, I learnt a lot from it and improve it in some ways
I will be glad if you visit some of my pages

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,437 endorsements and over 122k downloads—clearly a go-to for ammo counters.
- Framework design means you can apply counters to any weapon via patches, giving modders flexibility.
- Lightweight and focused—does one thing well without bloating your load order.
⚠️ Cons
- No detailed documentation or install instructions provided, so you'll need to figure out patching yourself.
- Last updated in 2021—might not be compatible with the latest game version or other mods.
- Requires some modding knowledge to create or apply patches; not plug-and-play for casual users.
For mod authors and experienced players who want to add ammo counters to custom weapons or existing ones. If you're a casual player looking for a ready-to-use counter, this framework requires extra setup. Skip if you prefer simple, standalone mods without patching.

- Check if any weapon mods you use already include patches for this framework—many popular weapon mods do.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to handle file conflicts when applying patches.
- If you're new to patching, look for tutorial videos or forum posts on how to create patches for this framework.
