Scopes Without Overlays

This mod removes scope overlays and allows you to zoom in using the actual scopes on the weapons.

Swapping scopes with a menu is not a part of this mod. It is a feature of this mod. I used it in the video to make showcasing different scopes easier.

Details:

• []This is a replacer mod, meaning all the scopes in the vanilla game (and shattered space if you download the patch) will be replaced by these scopes.[/]

  []Like my reflex sights mod, the reticles in the scopes will always point to where the first bullet will go, center of the screen.[/]

  []The scope reticle will move with the sway of the camera, but this sway affects the whole screen so the center does not change.[/]

  []Weapons' parts that would normally be visible when looking through the scope will be hidden while you are looking through it to give a better illusion of a scope. (Let me know if i missed any)[/]

  []Vanilla zoom levels are changed to the following:[/]

- Medium: x6

• []Since this mod removes the overlay, you can't hold your breath to stabilize your aim anymore. To fix this, you can choose the option "Hold Breath" while installing the mod. This requires SFSE and Cassiopeia Papyrus Extender. It works with or without scopes, you can use it for iron sights or reflex sights too. Default hotkey is "Shift" and can be changed by "iKeyCodeHoldBreath" in "SFSE\Plugins\ScopesWithoutOverlays\Settings.ini".[/]

  []I also made the stat "Actions use -XX% O2" that can be acquired by consuming some items affect the O2 usage of holding your breath. Sniper Certification rank 2 perk will still work as intended and halve the cost. "-25% oxygen consumption." legendary effect for helmets also works.[/]

  []Combatech recon scope model is now removed and replaced with the usual combatech scope model because I did not want to edit the same scope model.[/]

  Limitations:

  []I couldn't find a way to make the scope reticle render only through the glass so they are hidden based on viewing angle. They will only be visible when seen at an almost 90 degree angle, which will always be true when the player is looking through scopes. Because of this work around, sometimes they can be seen outside the scopes as the weapon moves around when jumping. Based on my tests, it only happens with some weapons when the player jumps or fires while strafing right.[/]

  []I can't find a way to make black and thin scope reticles that don't cause horrible ghosting. So, I opted to use textures that are more similar to reflex sight reticles. Some were already in the game but unused, some I got from other games.[/]
