📋 About This Mod

WASTELAND TACTICAL

VISIBLE WEAPONS ON PACKS

aka

Weapons Holstered on Packs - Portable Arsenal Resource

(The WHOPPAR)

VWOP allows you to holster weapons immersively on your backpack. No longer must you stuff them or your items in those magical vault-suit pockets. (Or any other implied storage location...)

Strap multiple options to your pack simultaneously, which can all be equipped/unequipped independently. Carry a versatile set of weapons and gear with you on your adventures.

This contains a respectable starter set (in my opinion) with hundreds* of possible combinations.

Be mobile. Be versatile. Be prepared!

All items are crafted at the Chemistry Station in their own category, and are editable at the Armor Workbench. Items have optional, plausible weight redistribution benefits, some material swap options, and some customization options (more to come).

THIS MOD DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY OTHER MODS FOR BASIC FUNCTIONALITY - IN OTHER WORDS, TO USE THE BACKPACKS AND THE HOLSTERS.

However:

- You do need the Visible Weapons mod (linked below) to link holsters to weapons

- You will have missing textures for any mod weapons for which you do not have the corresponding weapon mod installed. (Please see the detailed information below about textures for the mod weapons.)

PERSONAL NOTE:

In my own self-imposed “Survival Mode,” I try to only take what I could conceivably carry. These packs make that play style feasible, and I think it's way more fun. If some other people feel the same way, maybe they’ll like this mod. But even if you don’t care about all that, I also think the stuff just looks really cool! :)

Part of my hope in sharing this too is that in addition to being fun as-is, it could provide a framework to help people make their own things they might want. Or maybe some better modders will like the idea too and help me improve it. I always really wanted weapons that holster immersively on a backpack, figure I’m probably not alone there. I hope this can augment the awesome weapon holst
