📋 About This Mod

This mod makes all vanilla weapons craftable at the Industrial Workbench.

Known Issue:

There is some lag when first entering the bench, and after crafting something, from adding all that stuff (and I wouldn't be surprised if there is some unneeded code lookup slowing things down like there was on switching weapons at launch). Bethesda really should not have gotten rid of the categories system when opening a crafting bench. That's an obvious fuckup on their part. They really should have seen people wanting to craft more things coming.

Made with xEdit. Thanks Elminster, Sharlikran, Zilav, Hlp, Eckserah, fire, Infernio, 𝔍𝔬𝔫𝔞𝔱𝔥𝔞𝔫, Nephatrine, and shad0wshayd3.

As all .esm plugins made with xEdit, this mod requires Plugins.txt Enabler.
