Introduction

The HK416 was born out of a collaboration between the US Delta Army’s Delta Forces and German arms maker, Heckler & Koch. Due to its reliability over its direct-impingement cousin while offering the same ergonomic, the HK416 was a weapon of choice among special operation units around the world. Over 2 centuries later, many HK416 remains functional, and is among the most sought after weapons of any mercenaries due to its familiarity of the service rifle while offering superior durability.

Highly customizable, including mounting two types of scopes at once!

Future-proof design, allowing further expansion.

Once your character reaches level 27, Proctor Teagan, Cricket, Arturo, and your settlement's weapon shop should sell it. I've chosen not to spawn it on NPCs by default as it's not a lore-friendly weapon (however, if you so wished, there's an optional file for that, which will spawn the gun on Gunners). Mind you that this gun isn’t meant to be common, so merchants are unlikely to sell one every cycle.

You can also search up the gun's ID using console command, help "HK416" 4 with a quotation is a recommended search term, make sure its signature is WEAP, then spawn it in your inventory using "player.additem" command.

Or you can you head to Boston Mayoral Shelter with an expert skill level in hacking...

Future Updates

More customization options, with a focus on optics and textures.

Custom animation (if I can eventually afford it).

As usual, bug fixes and rebalancing.

Stay tuned for more!

  • The RU556 file is too big, and I don’t really use it in my gameplay

    Unfortunately, FX0x01 never replied to my message requesting permission to integrate the RU556 animation into my mod. And F34R, the animator that made the animation doesn’t give me the permission to use it. I have no choice but to make my gun dependent on other modder’s weapons (and yes, the cost to hire an animator is beyond my ability to pay). I’m so sorry everyone :-(

    However, you can keep only the main RU556 file and ESP, the overwhelming majority of the mod size is actually textures. Animations and sounds are archived in the main file, so you only need that.
