📋 About This Mod

DISCLAIMER:

This mod GREATLY improves the gunplay of FNV, but it DOES NOT fix it entirely, u may still experience some accuracy issues, but mod has proven to be vital in comparison to vanilla wobble and settings. as of Update v1. 3 any weapon with any animation pack or vanilla should be perfectly accurate, let me know in posts section if there are any issues still.

You may have found that weapons without a scope are really innaccurate despite having a really tight weapon spread value, like hunting rifle. In theory You should hit Your targets with ease, but its not the case in vanilla FNV

The reason why unscoped weapons were so inconsistent was due to this small setting fNonAttackGunWobbleMult that is set at 0. 5 at default.

It causes that when Player does not shoot: the wobble stays at 50% of its original strength, BUT as soon as User shoot the gun: the wobble IMMEDIATELY jumps from 50% to 100%, that's why when You aim with vanilla wobble: You are not aiming exactly where the bullet will go, but rather in approximate area.

This mod changes the vanilla wobble animation as a whole, making it more consistent, slower and far easier to predict and the fNonAttackGunWobbleMult is set to 1, now i had to make the wobble itself 50% less pronounced to make up the fact that You experience 100% wobble all the time.

Just watch the video, it explains and compares vanilla and this mod, the difference is immense

DISCLAIMER TO A VIDEO: BEFORE U POST NONSENSE, PUT ON GLASSES OR WHATEVER AND CHECK THE SNAP ON CHARACTER THAT ISNT MAXED OUT, OFC U WONT NOTICE THAT SNAP AFTER ATTACK IF U R MAXED OUT ON GUNS SKILL, HAVE SOME COMMON SENSE GODDAMN IT, THAT IS ALL.

Q: but why do i need that, i just use real recoil/immersive recoil.

A: u dont understand what this mod is about then, it fixes the accuracy, it doesnt add recoil.

Q: i use a mod that makes every gun laser accurate, this mod is obsolete.

A: good luck hitting anything past 40 meters with iron sights, again u dont understand this mod at all, it DOES NOT change weapon spread so if weapon statistically has a lot of bloom (minspread) dont expect to hit anything anyway, this mod fixes the character spread - wobble, so it accurately represents where the bullet will go, IF weapon's spread allows it ofc.

Q: why do i need this mod, i
