📋 About This Mod
PREVIEW:
9Wr-T4sJatc
RECOMMENDED MODS:
The Humble Hunting Rifle by dpillari.
Hunting Rifle Bayonet with Handle by MrTroubleMaker.
Sniper Scope Overlay and Reticles Replacement by JGLondon.
No Scope Fade In by deathclay. I use "Reduced Scope Fade In" (50%).
PATCHES:
New Calibers Patch by ShaquilleWang.
DESCRIPTION:
This is a Battlefield 1 Animation pack for the vanilla Hunting Rifle.
The base animations are based off of the SMLE for the Scout class in Battlefield 1.
The Equip and Sprint animations are based off of the Mosin Nagant for the Scout class in Battlefield 1.
The Large and Medium Magazine Reloads are specifically based off of the new Howell Automatic for the Medic class in Battlefield 1.
The Small Magazine Reload is specifically based off of the Gol Magnum for the Recon class in Battlefield 4.
REQUIREMENTS:
Only the Base Game.
INSTALLATION:
This mod is standalone. It does not require AsXas' right handed meshes as they are included (with permission).Extract the content of the .rar to your Fallout 4 directory or use NMM (no fancy fomod though).
NOTES:
1. The standard view model FOV of 80 is recommended. You may however use any camera FOV you like using the .ini.
2. Unfortunately, this mod breaks 3rd person charge animations and there is very little I can do about it.
3. Not compatible with any mod that alters weapon stats or values. Stats such as fire rate mustn't be changed.
Although this is a Battlefield 1 animation pack, the animations were made from scratch with video and screenshot reference of the game.
As such, NO BATTLEFIELD 1 ASSETS WERE USED IN THE CREATION OF THESE ANIMATIONS.
CREDITS:
DICE
ShadeAnimator for the Fallout 4 Animation Kit
AsXas for permission to use his edited right-hand meshes.
hitman47101 for the Grenade/Mine throw animations. I STILL don't want to do those.
Last but not least, Bethesda for Fallout 4.
