Realistic Reloading Mod

[Z-Boy]

For those that haven't heard of this mod, I would strongly recommend getting it; it's a great mod that adds an awesome amount of depth to the gunplay in NV.

Basically, what the mod does is it gives the player manual control over the reload system. If you fire a gun until you run out of bullets you have to manually reload the gun yourself. And if you reload a gun that has some bullets left in the magazine then that also gets deducted from your total ammunition count. Swapping weapons will also leave the gun you swapped out at the same ammo count you had before as well.

I've been using it so far, I love it and would suggest others to try it out.

Only problem with that mod that needs to be warned about, un-equip guns that are modded to have larger ammo capacity than they do by default. At times when loading in from a save with the said modded weapon equiped, your ammo count will drop to the original count and you will have to reload/swap ammo types to get the modded effect back.

Strange, I've never had that happened before. I did have an issue where my ammo count was stuck at zero and couldn't reload so I had to restart the game, but that happens every blue moon.

It's a shame the mod haven't gotten support it a while.

I honestly prefer Manual Redloading mod. No auto reloading ever for any vanilla or modded weapon. Helps with the immersion.

Same here. Also realistic reloading messes with save files (because of the way it saves ammo).

From the description:
"The mod will remember the ammo left in the weapon's magazine after changing weapons and loading the game."

Its a cool concept, but seems like awesome way to get a few corrupt saves.

Check the description of this video.
The video is by the mod author and he has kindly provided the dropbox link to the latest version of his mod in the video's description.

The mod still works for me with TTW 3.3, which is amazing and works well.
I've seen a few bugs but nothing noteworthy for me.

The author removed the mod because it will literally break your saves over time. It's unavoidable, and it *will* happen.

The first part - manual reloading - is done without a plugin by Stewie's Tweaks.

The second part is done - better, including the ability to go back and pick up half-empty magazines, leave one in the chamber for magazine-fed weapons, and more - by B42 Dropmag.

Those should be used instead of broken-ass ancient mods.

There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to use an incredibly old broken mod like that.

Yeah the original post is from ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 2017... I've been using the aforementioned Manual Reload mod, which is plugin-less.
