Paciencia for Fallout 3

Paciencia for Fallout 3

version 1. 2

Description:

--------------

There aren't really any rifles comparable to the Paciencia in FO3.  You've got your standard Hunting Rifle, then jumping up to Lincoln's Repeater or the Backwater Rifle, but they're of a different style all together, and of little use by the time you get them, in my opinion.  I missed the more powerful "working man's" but UNIQUE hunting rifle from NV GRA, that can be used very effectively by low-mid level characters during gameplay, which for me was the Paciencia.  It never left my side through my entire NV play-through.  This mod ports Paciencia from FNV GRA to FO3, with all the specifications (where applicable) nearly the same.  I think it serves well as a mid-power rifle between the standard Hunting Rifle and some of the more powerful automatic weapons out there and various big guns.  Just like the Mojave, the wasteland needs something like this, too!

A version is located in an easy locked footlocker in one of the Springvale destroyed homes with some ammo.

NOTE!  I can NOT re-distribute the NV files!  You MUST also own a copy of NV and GRA, and extract the requisite meshes and textures yourself in order to use this mod!  Look at the installation heading below for an instructable!  This file ONLY contains the ESP files (and an optional customized mesh) that will ALLOW you to use those resources from NV in your FO3 installation.

The stats match the NV version where possible.

Compatibilities:

-------------------

I thought this was going to be simple because my That Gun mod worked like a champ and was crazy-easy.  This gave me problems, though, since it wasn't really lined up for Ironsights and the textures were hardcoded into the mesh making it difficult for me.  I had to download and install Nifskope in order to get the thing to function halfway decently, over the course of a few evenings.  For the vanilla version, it uses standard . 308 ammo and only requires the Fallout3.esm to use.  If you're using FWE, there is a special FWE version that requires the use of FWE, CALIBR, and xCALIBR to change the ammo chambering to . 338 Win-Mag.  PERFECT for carrying around the DC wastes to knock down those Yao Guai and Deathclaws!
