📋 About This Mod

NW Western Revolver Patch: https://bethesda.net/en/mods/fallout4/mod-detail/4156581
Description
This mod is an animation replacer for the vanilla . 44 revolver, complete with all new idles, walk/run, firing, and reload.
All animations were created by myself. Sounds are vanilla as well.
Base game is required for vanilla . 44; optional separate .esp for nukaworld Western Revolver is available (though I HIGHLY recommend using Zgabuterimon's replacer instead.)
This set does not currently contain third person animations!

IMPORTANT NOTES
1. This mod is a replacer, thus any revolver weapon mod using vanilla . 44 animations will use this set instead, but will continue to be single action unless modified though CK or FO4Edit.
2. This set does not currently contain third person animations, the gun will still work as a double action, but the the hammer will slowly rotate to the cocked position on its own (THIS DOES NOT AFFECT FIRST PERSON IN ANY WAY!)
3. All animations have been optimized for a view model FOV of 120 and below, use whatever you find comfortable with :)
4. Not compatible with any mod that alters weapon stats or values; damage and/or fire rate stats must be changed manually. Also incompatible with CC skins.
