After the November 2019 Fallout 4 update Bethesda implemented a version check: the mods created after the update WON'T WORK in outdated Fallout 4! If your game version is below 1. 10. 162 you won't be able to use this mod.

You should either:

- update your Fallout 4 to the latest version

- use FO4Edit to change version in Header to 0. 9500 (you'll need to do it again if I will release any .esp update)

Also if your Fallout 4 game version is lower than 1. 10 even if you'll edit file header in FO4Edit you will most likely experience crashes in workbench and inspect menus!

tl;dr - keep your game up to date!



Sometimes you may experience a rare animation bug in 3rd person when the weapon starts moving around the right hand on reloading (reports say it can happen if you try to reload mid-jump). Simply switch to 1st person and back to 3rd to fix it.

Take pictures!
