Description

This mod retains the percentage-based health restoration of Stimpaks while removing their limb-healing effect. There are other mods, that try to achieve the same, but in order to remove the limb-healing effect, they replace the Stimpak effect completely and you no longer have a percentage-based heal effect. Bethesda hardcoded this effect into the Stimpak effect. This mod fixes that and removes it. (It will still work for NPCs, to get them back onto their feet)

Recommended

As this mod removes the ability to heal limbs with Stimpacks, you may want to check out Better Chems. Its a small overhaul to chems and allows you to heal limbs with Med-X.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure F4SE is installed correctly and launch the game through f4se_loader.exe, not the default launcher.

  • If you're using a mod that changes limb healing, test in a save before committing to a playthrough.
