✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted reupload (324 endorsements, 20k downloads)
- Two installation methods: loose files or .ba2 archive
- Clear installation and uninstallation instructions provided
⚠️ Cons
- No longer updated since 2019 — may not work with current game patches
- Author explicitly states no additional reticle requests will be accepted
- Requires manual .ini editing for .ba2 installation, which can be tricky for beginners
For Fallout 76 players who want a cleaner, modern look for their scope reticles without overhauling the whole UI. If you're comfortable with basic file extraction and .ini edits, this is a straightforward cosmetic upgrade. Skip if you expect ongoing support or new reticle options.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If using the .ba2 method, make sure to add ModernScopes.ba2 to the SResourceArchive2List in Fallout76Custom.ini exactly as shown, and separate multiple archives with commas.
- For loose files, you must use Baka File Tool to load them; otherwise the game won't recognize the custom interface files.
- Always back up your Fallout76Custom.ini before editing, so you can revert if something goes wrong.
