Iron Sights Mod Fallout 3

broken image


I've played it a lot so far, and i'd really prefer iron sights. Yeah, you do use VATS a lot for the edge it gives you (you attack at normal speed while everything else is slowed down, say 10 bullets fired instead of 3 or 4 real-time), but the times when i'm wanting to aim manually, i hate the zoom crap. As soon as i saw that, i wanted a mod for iron sights. Someone make it, please! In any case, any gun mod that you see that is noted as being aligned for Iron sights (and there are quite a few online) will be compatible with RH's mod. In fact, even without it if the gun's.nif is properly aligned, and the 'Don't use 1st Person IS animations' is unchecked in the GECK, you can look down the sights (though you won't get RH's. Iron sights add more immersion to the game even if the bullets don't go exactly where you aim them due to the rpg elements. And frankly it is more realistic than a floating cross hair.

Fallout 3 was the 2008 reboot of the beloved late-90’s PC role-playing series, Fallout. Now a classic RPG beloved by millions of fans worldwide. The Fallout series went on to spawn two more games, Obsidian’s Fallout: New Vegas and the massively-popular sequel, Fallout 4.

It’s still a great game even 10 years later. With all the DLC content available at such a cheap price, you can enjoy the DC wasteland in all its glory. The huge array of mods available only make it better and more appealing than ever. There’s never been a better time to experience Fallout 3, whether for the first or 101st time.

Here are the Best Fallout 3 Mods

Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch

The base Fallout 3 game is known for having a lot of bugs and glitches that have never officially been addressed by its developer, Bethesda. Luckily, the modding community has done a lot of work in creating the Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch.This definitive package includes a wide range of fixes, updates, and changes including disappearing NPCs, armor textures and dialogue bugs. It all comes in one simple and handy plugin, too. Highly recommended for an improved Fallout 3 experience all-round.

Fellout

Although Fallout 3 is considered to be a Bethesda classic, it is safe to say its graphics have not aged well. Fellout is a graphical overhaul mod that removes the awful green tinge you’ll find everywhere in vanilla Fallout 3. This mod does this adjustment for both indoors and outdoor environments. Fellout also gives a more harsh feel to the world of Fallout by neutralizing indoor lighting, removing the green fog and changing the look of water. Overall, Fellout is a lighting and weather overhaul that’s highly recommended if you’re looking for a more realistic-looking wasteland.

NMC’s Texture Pack

The only texture overhaul pack you’ll need to make your DC wasteland look as sharp as possible. The base game is pretty ugly at this point, let’s be honest. This essential fallout 3 mod, although it won’t make it look as good as Fallout 4, helps to alleviate this problem a considerable amount by replacing terrain, trees, interiors/exteriors, and most vehicles and furniture with high resolution real-life based photographic equivalents. It also changes roads, litter and paper scraps, and other medium-large sized objects such as toolboxes and chairs. This covers most of the in-game visuals and makes it all look much better.

Games For Windows Live Disabler

Anyone who has played Fallout 3 on PC will know how annoying and obnoxious the Games For Windows Live feature can be. A weird and antiquated remnant of PC gaming’s past-life, GFWL probably doesn’t even work. This simple and easy mod removes it completely. What exactly does this mod do? It allows you to stop the Games for Windows Live from running in Fallout 3 and prevent its .dll files from loading. This will drastically help reduce the time that it takes for Fallout 3 to startup. It also removes the “Live” button from the main menu, and unbinds the “Home” key, allowing you to rebind the key to another useful action instead. A very nice QoL mod.

Fallout 3 Redesigned – Formerly Project Beauty HD

The faces of Fallout 3 are pretty bad, especially in 2019. They all look muddy and bland. This comprehensive graphical mod makes the faces look better, sharper, and less bad. Specifically, this mod re-designs the facial structure of NPCs in Fallout 3 to make them more realistic and to better reflect their personality. In vanilla Fallout 3 there are a lot of awkward skin tones and facial structures included, and this mod completely removes those in favor of the updated ones.

Iron Sights Mod

Fallout 3’s minute-to-minute action was never a reason to play it, and it’s only gotten worse with age. Fallout: New Vegas added the ability to aim down sights on all guns, which helps to make the action feel a bit tighter and more responsive. Even if you’re not a fan of FPS games, you can’t deny the convenience of this iron sights mod. What this mod does is it adds centered iron sight animations to most of the vanilla guns in the game for Fallout 3. This mod was supported for a long time by its creator, and many updates were made to improve it over the years. While it is no longer a work in progress, it has certainly improved the user experience for many Fallout players.

Stutter Remover

Fallout 3’s engine was never the most optimized. Bethesda’s open world RPGs are known for their abundance of technical issues. There are a number of mods to fix some of these issues, but one that you might want if you’re getting performance hitches and FPS stutters is this mod. This plugin makes Fallout 3 not stutter as much, and will make gameplay feel smoother and perform better. It will prevent or reduce the impact of issues relating to stuttering and frame rate and will reduce the amount of crashes you may receive as a result of those stutters.

Weapon Mod Kits

One of the coolest things Fallout: New Vegas introduced was weapon mods. The ability to tweak and improve your weapons with various attachments and improvements helped make the combat more engaging and more varied. This mod adds a similar system into Fallout 3, letting you customize your weapons with silencers, scopes, and more.

Let us know if you think we missed anything!

i personally think that they should have never added iron sights at least with NV because the graphics in this are not so pretty close up. i was so pumped when i was playing NV for the first time and when i was handed the varmit rifle to shoot the bottles i was disappointed on how unpretty the iron sight looked. also i found it somewhat difficult to use the iron sights on moving enemies, note i don't svck at shooting guns in other games. anyways am not bashing NV am just pointing this problem so that he an employee from Bethsda fixes this problem in the next Fallout game if there ever is one
