About this mod Machine translation
This mod adds a shoulder-mounted M2 to Fallout 4, complete with level list integration, workbench attachments, and lots of .50 caliber fun.
The M2 was added to the tiered list and can be found on the Advanced Gunner, as well as anywhere you might find a Missile Launcher, Mini Cannon, or Fat Man.
This weapon combined with the Heavy Gunner perk makes for an interesting new ballistic heavy weapon.
Since Bethesda never intended to animate fully automatic missiles, this mod was awesome to make, but also a huge pain in the ass for me. Having said that, there are several known issues:
- NPCs cannot use full auto. The weapon was originally intended to be fully automatic, but as mentioned above, that wasn't entirely possible. It's hard enough to make it work for players XD
- Burst mode while wearing third-person power armor. This is an engine level issue and I believe the only solution is a full set of custom animations.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
