📋 About This Mod

+++DESCRIPTION+++

This mod adds in an SVT-40. It comes with unique static and sound entries, as well as having it added to the appropriate repair, vendor, and leveled lists.

It can be found under Doc Mitchell's bedroom wardrobe.

v1. 1 Update: The mesh has been completely redone for various improvements in accuracy and scaling, new textures have been created, and also adds two new modifications, a scope and a silencer.

+++COMPATIBILITY+++

This mod should not conflict with any other mod.

+++KNOWN ISSUES+++

The reload animation for the lever is going to be a little awkward - that is to say, the animation will show that it's pulling back on it and pushing it forward, but it won't move. That's because there are no appropriate animations for the combation of hand grip, attack, and reload animations for this gun altogether. For example, we can animate the lever and the magazine perfectly at the cost of the handgrip holding the rifle like a pistol grip or we can get the handgrip and lever working normally, but the magazine reload is awkward. We can not find a perfect combination that we're happy with, so this is as good as it gets.

The lever clips through the back of the gun on every shot. Without altering the design of the gun, which fans would instantly tell, or modifying the animations, which we can't do, there isn't really a fix for this either.

+++INSTALLATION+++

Copy/extract the archive into your Data folder and check the esp off in your data loader.

+++UNINSTALLATION+++

Remove the contents of the archive from your Data folder.

+++Credits+++
