Hey please watch this trailer it only takes a minute and I spent like a week on it
Have you ever tried playing Fallout New Vegas with a build focused on explosives? No? Well now’s the time to change that.
Introducing: Grenade Machineguns Reborn, a visual and gameplay overhaul of one of the best weapon types in the game that is guaranteed to make you fall in love with things that go boom.
Grenade Machineguns are an often-overlooked weapon type, due to several factors: They require a maxed-out Explosives skill and a STR stat of 8 to handle, and they are extremely uncommon in the overworld, Nellis AFB being the only location where you’ll run into NPCs carrying one. Vendors rarely have them in their inventories, and the unique version, Mercy, is located at the end of one of the game’s most difficult dungeons. Many people do not even know these weapons exist, and I’m hoping this mod can change that somewhat!
I really adore them, but I always found the model and textures to be pretty mediocre and low res, not to mention the mesh has tons of errors, including a floating triangle inside the muzzle brake, messed up smoothing groups, and UV errors galore. I can’t be too harsh on Obsidian for this, their development schedule was rough. So, I decided to be the change I wanted to see and began working on this complete overhaul of not only the standard Grenade Machinegun, but also its unique variant. This was easily the most ambitious modding project I’ve ever tackled, and it is with great pride that I share it on the Nexus today for all of you to enjoy!
[]A complete overhaul of the Grenade Machinegun’s model, UV, and textures, fixing errors that have been in the game for over a decade and finally giving this weapon type the visual overhaul it deserves.
[]Mercy, the unique variant, gets the same treatment as the standard version! In addition to that, it retains its unique rusted skin and “Hei Gui Bye-Bye” spray painting, and gains a yellow screen tint.
[*]Comes with textures in 1K, 2K and 4K resolutions to accommodate a broad range of setups. The 4K Package only comes with 4K textures for the diffuse/albedo maps of the main bodies, and all the other maps (normal/specs, glow, refmasks, etc) come in 2K. The same is true for all other packages in de
Grenade Machineguns Reborn is a weapon overhaul that replaces the grenade machinegun's models and textures for both standard and unique versions. It improves the firing arc and reduces screen shake, with three resolution options including 4K. Popular with 768 endorsements and over 232k downloads.
