The handcrafted rocket rifle is the answer to early to mid-game explosive weapons. Don't want to wait forever to get a missile launcher? Then the rocket rifle is the weapon for you.

data

This weapon does half the damage of the Missile Launcher, making it good against small groups of humanoid enemies, but not so good against tough targets like Death Claws or Sentinel Droids.

How to get

Rocket Rifles start spawning in the tier list after level 8 and can be found on Raider Leaders, Gunner Leaders, and occasionally Militiamen.

Animation

The animations in this mod are a modified set of double barrel animations created by Diacute. These animations eliminate shell ejection so you don't have that mysterious second rocket.

Ammunition type

The Rocket Rifle uses New Vegas "Rocket" ammo. In its current state, this is just a visual change, and the weapons still use missiles. Once ammo 1.1 drops, the appropriate rocket will be used.

Unique variants

A unique variant of this weapon adds a nuclear option and can be found when a certain scientist is hiding in the Glowing Sea. (i.e. Vergil’s hideout in the main plot)

Known issues

The third person is a bit weird. Solution: Play in first person.

Final Notes

This was a fun little weapon to test whether I could create a complete weapon mod in a short amount of time. This is also a test to demonstrate the many applications of the assets featured in my asset pack. These useful little gubbins add a lot of interest to handcrafted weapon mods, check them out here:
