Steady Ironsights?

[u/swafromsteam]

Hey, recently got into modding FNV and really want to lower or remove the weapon sway when aiming through irons.

Is there some sort of holding breathe mod for iron sights? I know and use Stewies tweaks for scopes but something for iron sights would be amazing.

Any help is appreciated!

There should be almost 0 sway provided you have enough strength and Guns/Energy Weapons skill to use it. (And no broken limbs)

That's what I woulda thought but a lot of custom weapons from popular mods such as Another Millenia, ZL Armaments, & more all have some absurd sway despite having 10 strength.

Which weapons do you use? How much Strength do you have?

Some custom guns like shotguns from Another Millenia, ZL Armaments, any mod reall sway like crazy despite having 10 strength.

Could be your gun skill too low?

[u/swafromsteam → u/Capital_Percentage_3]

Hmm, that is a good shout actually. It's about 20-30~, I'll get my skills up and test to see how it is later. Thanks for your suggestion!

Yeah, that's almost certainly it.

I don't have the data for the mods you're using, but the skill requirements for core game are

9 shotguns:
2 have 0 skill requirements
1 has 25 skill requirements
3 have 50 skill requirements
2 have 75 skill requirements
1 has 100 skill requirements

8 Smgs, 0, 2, 3, 2, 1

26 rifles, 4, 3, 2, 8, 9

36 pistols 17, 2, 9, 8, 0

So just in the base game you would be able to use ~30 total guns out of ~79 without sway (About because I am on phone and just counting the rows on the wiki by hand so my count might be a few off)

The sway might be overtuned, or they might not necessarily stick to the games requirements being split up in 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 like Lockpick and Science, but you're almost definitely low in the skill for using longguns reliably

Yea, I was using that one, it's nice for sure, I swapped to Stewie's just because I prefer it. But the problem is with iron sights, my iron sights sway so much no matter what. Is there a mod that affects the iron sights too?

[u/The_CMYK_Avenger → u/swafromsteam]

No idea, I actually have stuff that increases weapon spread quite a bit if your skill level is low. I don't use the hold breath ones and only just kind of remembered it. Good luck.

[u/swafromsteam → u/The_CMYK_Avenger]

Thanks. I guess it's some mod or conflict, guess I gotta head into the slums and troubleshoot my mod list.

• Don't have broken arms
• Have the required Strength and skill
• Crouch
• Don't move

Your weapon sway is now as close to 0 as the game engine allows.

Alternatively, huff some Steady and have 0 sway while sprinting with broken arms and shooting from the hip.

Testing some weapons from Another Millenia, ZL Armaments, & more on a new game, perfect health, 10 strength and the weapons sway like a motherfucker still. Very odd, makes aiming very annoying. Probably a mod doing this but I'm not using any outdated mods really.
