Gore Dismember and Explode Edits

For each weapon in Fallout New Vegas, the GECK specifies if it can neatly cut off a creature's head or limb, make an enemy's head or limb explode, can't do either, or can do both.

Some settings are a little odd, however: a 9mm pistol can decapitate an enemy, a spear makes limbs explode, a switch knife is able to cut off a leg in one blow, etcetera.

This mod aims to change these settings to make the gore effects a weapon creates a bit more like what you'd expect (note: no changes are made to the weapon statistics themselves). In general, the weapon's relevant values are set to do the following:

• Dismember: lasers, melee cutting weapons.
• Explode: high powered and heavy caliber weapons, plasma and tesla weapons, heavy blunt weapons, power fists.
• Neither: small cutting and blunt weapons, small caliber pistols, medium powered rifles.

Please see the "Readme" section for a detailed list of every change this mod makes to the weapons. Also, using the list posted there, you can easily make changes to the weapons you want by looking up their respective IDs in the GECK and changing the relevant value.

This mod should be compatible with gore/effect graphics enhancers such as EVE, as long as you load this .esp after those mods.

Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition is required (all DLC).

A final note: other mods on the Nexus have set out to make similar edits, however this one differs from those in that I have chosen different settings for a number of weapons. Go for whichever suits your tastes best.
