IMI . 50AE Desert Eagle - VR Fix + FO4VR CTD FIX
This is a VR fix for the IMI . 50AE Desert Eagle: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/43313
The weapon mod IS REQUIRED FOR THIS FIX TO WORK
Features of this mod fix:
Since the last Creation kit (CK) update the header was updated to 1. 0 instead of 0. 95. This changes the header for the mod to work in FO4VR.
Do you also hate that some weapon mods crash your game?
This mod also removes parts of the base mod that crash FO4VR. (Usually sight mods, yes this means that some sights will not be accessible to you. Still better
than the game crashing randomly when the weapon spawns on NPCs or you the player modding the weapon at the weapon bench.)
Install order:
1. Desert Eagle 1. 0 (use eith 2k or 4k)
2. Desert Eagle 1. 0. 1
3. This fix, overwrite if asked. Place this after\overwrite the weapon mod in load order.
Question: I'm having issues like the gun deconstructing or not working properly:
You are missing files.
Install order:
1. Desert Eagle 1. 0 (use eith 2k or 4k)
2. Desert Eagle 1. 0. 1
3. This fix, overwrite if asked.
Question: Does this require Fallout 4 VR?
Answer: No, but this position issue happens only in Fallout 4 VR, so I see no reason to use this mod if you are not using Fallout 4 VR. More than that, it might not work in older Fallout 4 since the VR version is a fork of an older version and Bethesda abandon their products and are too lazy to update the VR version.
Question: This mod fix is conflicting with the base mod!
Answer: Yes, this mod should replace the main base mod esp file. Either overwrite\replace the file completely or put it after the base mod in your mod manager (MO2, Vortex).
Question: I downloaded more than one of your VR fixes and they conflict! A file named DummyReciever_1stPerson.nif appears in all of them, do they conflict with each other?
Answer: No. It's the same exact file. So if it asks you to overwrite it, do it.

⚠️ Cons

For Fallout 4 VR players who love the IMI .50AE Desert Eagle and want to use it without crashes. If you're not using that weapon mod, this fix is irrelevant. Skip if you play the base game without VR.
