Fred's Night Vision Goggles

Description
Included Items
The mod adds the following items to the game:
  • AN/PVS-7
  • AN/PVS-14
  • AN/PVS-15
  • GPNVG-18
  • Rhino Mount
  • Night Vision Head Mount

Known Issues
  • Models don't appear correctly when placed on the ground

Usage
The mod introduces a 'Night Vision Head Mount' item that serves as the primary attachment point for other items. This item occupies its own slot and can be worn under under other items such as gas masks, motorcycle helmets, hats from other mods and so on. The 'Rhino Mount' item can be attached to the mount by itself or can be combined with any of the goggles in their "item" form (goggles in the 'Electronics' category) to create the attachable version (goggles in the 'Accessory' category)

When the goggles have been combined with the Rhino Mount and attached to the Night Vision Head Mount, they can now be toggled on/off using the 'Toggle NVG' ([N] by default) hotkey given they have enough battery. They can be raised and lowered using the context menu or the 'Flip NVG' hotkey (unbound by default). Both of these keys can be changed in the in-game settings under 'Options' > 'key bindings' > 'Night Vision Goggles'.

All goggles have identical functionality and differs only in appearance.

Sandbox options
The sandbox options allows you to adjust the spawn chances for each of the items introduced along with the battery lifetime. These options can be found under 'Night Vision Goggles' on the 'Sandbox options' page when creating a new game. If you do not wish to use one of the goggles, you can effectively disable them by setting their spawn rate to 0.

Where to find them
All items introduced can be found in military containers and army stores. The goggles always contains a battery with between 30%, and 100% charge. All goggles have 3% spawn chance and the Night Vision Head Mount and Rhino Mount have 7% spawn chance.

Dependencies
None!

Does it work in multiplayer?
Yes! (B41)

Hands down one of my favorite NVG mods. few issues in multiplayer, but overall works well. I will say the spawning really needs ot take a nose dive on default settings. They all spawn way too much, even after adjusting the spawn settings to 0.00-0.50 settings

It works correctly although a problem occurs when I am attacking a zombie sometimes it turns off automatically and I have to turn it back on. It's annoying when you can't see anything all at once. Is that normal or why does it happen? Thanks for this mod.

@日落 Sounds like you found an error. This can either be in my implementation or due to some conflicting mod. I test my mod before every release so i would assume it is the latter. Unfortunately i cannot do anything without the stack trace so if you are able to provide this, kindly put it into the 'Bug Reports' thread and i will have a look

What's the situation if my night vision goggles turn on and an error message pops up in the lower corner?

oh dang yes it does, thank you!

@superscavenger9000 Picture 3-4 shows this exact scenario

@Ketsune- The White Wolf For this mod to function, you need to:
1. Have the Head Mount equipped
2. Have a pair of NVGs in your inventory that has the Rhino Mount attached (the category of the item should be 'Accessory', not 'Electronic')

You should now be able to see the "Attach to Head Mount" option when right clicking either item. If this is not the case, you might have a mod conflict or something. I have just tested this with a fresh character and i am not able to reproduce your issue

I am just curious, when you use these in a totally dark room. Do these work in the room so i can see or is the room still pitch black and the world around it is all green?

@Fredoodle_ I do apologize, am I missing something, I am understanding the NVGs can mount to the head-strap or rhino mount? or is it 3 items to 1, head strap, rhino mount + nvg? do I need to be at a table? I still cant get it to work.

@Ketsune- The White Wolf. Yes it does work. Read the description
