📋 About This Mod

Gunner Outfit Pack - West Tek Optics

Adds Flashlight support to all Gunner Combat Helmets in the Gunner Outfit Pack. Also adds Night and Thermal Vision support to the Thermal/NV Goggle Helmets.

Requires West Tek Tactical Optics - Night Vision Thermal Vision Goggles and More by fadingsignal.

Some Info

Night and Thermal Vision is currently applied to the 8 helmets:

Gunner Combat Helmet / Balaclava / Thermal / NVG / Up

Added new "Forehead" mod that is applied by default to all helmets that previously had "Up". Can be changed at Workbench.

Original NV will have the NV Effect by default. Original Thermal will have the Thermal by default.

"Night Vision Goggles" is now called "Tactical Goggles" and "Thermal Goggles" is now called "Cyclops Goggles" as all affects can be applied to all of them.

Helmets looted before adding patch won't have the needed modifications added and you need to add them yourself (which requires unlocking Blueprints).

Also need to drop and then pick up the helmets again for the script to properly apply.
