📋 About This Mod
Removes sway / drift / wobble whatever-you-want-to-call-it while looking through scopes. This should work with all scoped weapons.
Does not affect recoil, runaway, or bolt cycling effects.
PLEASE DELETE AND UNINSTALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS BEFORE DOWNLOADING.
UPDATE 11-11-2016 Re-designed with CK, now supports DLC and stand-alone weapon mods. There should be no more compatibility issues. This mod is now implemented via an automatically granted perk instead of modifying scopes.
Does not work with magnified "Sights" like those found in the mod "See Through Scopes" ( http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/9476/? ) by henkspamadres (http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/users/17659929/?) I'm working on adding compatibility for Magnified "Sights" as well but sway in sights is likely caused by an animation and it might take me awhile, if I can ever figure it out.
UPDATE 11-4-2016 As requested I have Added Optional support for Crossbows Of The Commonwealth (http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/10484) by TrickyVein (http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/users/1949349) If you have not checked it out I would recommend doing so; much immersion, very medieval. To get the patch you have to click on the files tab and look under the heading "Optional" Please load this after Crossbows Of The Commonwealth, also this patch is independent of the main file so you can remove scope sway from crossbows only if you want.
Console support coming soon™? Now available for XBOX1. (Hopefully it works)
Please submit feedback on any compatibility issues that you may run into.
Made with FO4Edit and Creation Kit.
