Fixed a bug where the zoom lens kept zooming while shooting.

ScrollZoom allows you to adjust the zoom of scoped weapons using the mouse wheel while aiming. Zoom levels are saved for each weapon and scope setup.

Install using the Mod Manager, or copy the included files to your Fallout 4 Data folder.

Use the mouse wheel to adjust the scope's zoom while aiming.

Save zoom level for each weapon.

Keep different zoom values for different scope settings.

Support for OMOD entries excluded via INI file.

Supports "Fallout 4" original version and "Fallout 4 AE".

fStepSize: Controls the magnitude of the zoom change each time the mouse wheel ticks.

fMinZoomRatio: Sets the minimum zoom limit to the ratio of the weapon's original scope zoom.

iStartZoom: Controls the initial zoom level when no value is saved.

0: Start from minimum zoom.

1: Start with middle zoom.

2: Start from maximum zoom.

fMinFovMult: Ignore weapons or scopes below the field of view multiple, helping to avoid non-scope aiming.

bDebugLogging: When set to 1, detailed debug logging can be achieved.

sExcludedOMODs: Allow specific OMODs to disable ScrollZoom. Entries are in the format Plugin:FormID and separated by commas.

source code

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.
