📋 About This Mod
The Cross Cryolance is an incredible mod. I absolutely love the thing, but the Author's choice to diverge so strongly from the vanilla game in terms fo the crafting is something that's always bothered me. It finally bothered me enough to go ahead, and vanillafy the thing.
Mods renamed to follow vanilla conventions
Weapon rebalanced as a cryo version of the Gauss Rifle
Weapon now uses cryo cell ammo
Mag capacity set to 3 (it's a lot more powerful now, so this helps balance it out)
Cryo damage moved to base weapon, so it shows up on stats
Addon magazine attachments rebalanced to boost cryo damage, instead of misc effects.
HasScope keyword added to scopes

Vanillified Syringer Rifle Overhaul
Vanillafied Street Sweeper
Vanillafied CS5
Vanillafied Cross Break Action Laser

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid endorsement-to-download ratio (185 endorsements, 52k downloads) shows it's a trusted tweak.
- Fills a real need: makes a cool weapon actually viable without breaking balance.
- Simple, focused change—no bloat, just rebalancing.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects the Cross Cryolance—if you don't use that weapon, this mod does nothing for you.
- Requires the Cross Cryolance mod to be installed first, so it's not standalone.
For Fallout 4 players who love the Cross Cryolance but find it too overpowered. If you're a balance purist who wants every weapon to feel like vanilla, this is for you. Skip if you don't use the Cross Cryolance or prefer your weapons overpowered.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the Cross Cryolance mod installed before adding this patch.
- Load order matters: place this mod after the Cross Cryolance to ensure the changes apply.
- If you're using other weapon rebalance mods, test in-game to see if they conflict.
