📋 About This Mod
UPDATE5: Holster Gear v1. 4: TEMPLAI suggested Loki gear models gave fps drops so did my best to optimize (removed excess nodes, stipified- yeah can't belive i forgot in previous version), so you should get better fps with them now. Thats that for this update.
This is something i made for myself, from mods i found on nexus, but since i saw tumbajumba and thatguy10 gave permission, figured i'd share it.
Anyways the mod contains meshes of gear you can wear over armors to look cooler and have a rig, the guns can hang of.

- INSTALL:
- Download main file and textures update
- Extract to data folder
- Activate Holster gear.esp
- Get the gear from a trunk infront of Doc Mitchells house
USAGE: There are 18 items in the trunk. 6 are complete gear. 12 are divided lower and upper parts. You can mix and match them, or wear just lower or upper. Lower parts have an L in name and upper parts have U. Complete sets have no letter :)
OPTIONAL: If you want pistols and handguns to fit the leg holster you'll need animations for it. I belive both of these mods should supply them

Kudos to soopahfly for pointing out that vanilla animations are part of the game :) I keep forgeting that.. ************************************** ***************************************** UPDATE4: Holster Gear v1. 3: Added 4 "Lean" versions of gear without the lower pack, as per soopahflys suggestion. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seems I didn't do immersion all that well so.. UPDATE3: Holster Gear v1. 2: All gear has been renamed, I have added a custom icon for the gear and put in one more piece just so it would be all immersion update. Hope you like it.
PS: I never really did icons so if it's no good..my bad and if anyone knows how to do them, i wont complain if you wanna make one that is more fallout style :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Smaller note: Wow, you guys made it a Hot File :) Didn't expect to see that when i woke up (19 end woot). Anyways a big thank you for endorsing the mod.
UPDATE2: Textures: All the textures for meshes so you dont have to download the other two mods. --------------------------------------------------
