📋 About This Mod
- Description -
High quality models/textures for all the Mini-Gun variants including the weapon's modifications.
I made this mod for the following reasons:
- Compatibility (Animations/Scripts /Overhauls...etc)
- Distinctive visuals between variants & weapon modifications. (See Images)
- Kind of missed the backpack it made it look like a real heavy weapon, also added glowing maps for the red buttons.
- Adjusted the backpacks so they no longer float in the air.
- An ammo counter for the CZ57.
- Classic Fallout 3/New Vegas aesthetics.
- Compatibility -
Should be compatible with everything.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 507 endorsements and over 254k downloads—clearly a popular pick
- ESPLESS means no plugin slot, so it won't clutter your load order
- TTW support is a huge plus for players who run the combined Fallout 3/NV experience
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated December 2025—might not be compatible with future game patches or mods that alter minigun meshes
- Requires manual installation or mod manager—no FOMOD installer mentioned, so you'll need to handle files yourself
For Fallout: New Vegas players who want a classic, high-quality look for their miniguns without adding new weapons or gameplay changes. Perfect for TTW fans who want consistent visuals across both games. Skip if you're looking for new minigun variants or gameplay tweaks—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's ESPLESS, just drop the meshes and textures folders into your Data directory—no plugin to activate.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, you can still install it as a mod, but make sure it loads after any mods that also alter minigun models.
- For TTW users, ensure you have TTW installed correctly and that this mod's files overwrite any conflicting minigun textures.
