📋 About This Mod
3 files that fix the weapon clipping on the backs of the Ranger Combat Armor, the Desert Ranger Combat Armor from Honest Hearts, and all versions of Riot Gear from Lonesome Road. All I did is check the \"Uses Backpack\" boxes on all the armors so the rifles are reversed in position like when wearing Power Armor. Use ONLY the .esp files you need - if you don\'t have Lonesome Road, don\'t use the Riot Gear Fixes.esp. If you don\'t have Honest Hearts, don\'t use Desert Ranger Armor Fix.esp. FAQ \"It doesn\'t work!\" You did something wrong or it\'s a bug in the game. \"Can you fix it so the rifle butt is over the shoulder like normal, without clipping?\" NO. That would probably involve editing the armor meshes or something which I don\'t know how to do, so don\'t ask. \"There\'s another mod out there that fixes the meshes, instead of just changing the flag.\" Well, go download that one then?
A compact bug fix mod for Fallout: New Vegas that resolves weapon clipping issues on the Ranger Combat Armor, Desert Ranger Combat Armor, and all Riot Gear. With 482 endorsements and over 9,000 downloads, it's a community-approved fix for a common visual annoyance.
