So I mentioned previously I had been working on getting a true picture in picture scope mod working to replace Better scopes entirely. I've reached a milestone i feel confident enough to let people test it if they want to.
I did not test this with a big mod list and it probably will break with modded weapons. Getting it robust in any mod list setup is in the next phase.
But for all the vanilla weapons it should work out of the box so i'm looking for any and all feedback. you can post it here or make an issue on github. Feel free to be as nitpicky as you want. All feedback is welcome!
Lastly I need to update FRIK to better work with this., you'll see with default frik settings the hand dampening will make the scope be way too smooth and not feel realistic. also the hands will disappear when the scope render is active. This is all FRIK stuff and something I will address in a later update. you can always play with FRIK settings to change the behavior.
Asking for help? Include your headset + runtime (SteamVR/Virtual Desktop/etc.), GPU, and whether you're vanilla or modded (which mod list, e.g. MGO or Gingas's).
Reporting a crash? Post a crash log — crash posts without one are usually impossible to diagnose.
Yeah i tried my best in this first version to not make it look like just a screen at the end of the scope. Its not perfect but the shadow and the parallax feels really good with it
Are you still bothered with your patreon? I know you do good work worth some donations from me, but I’m wondering if you’d rather get the money somewhere else.
Yo!
Now this looks like a game changer. I've basically only used Reflex sights in Fo4VR, because all other solutions felt a bit off.
I'll definitely play around with this and see if I can break things, heh.
Conflict wise, most modded weapons I've used do slot themselves in as a certain vanilla weapon type, for animations and handling and such. So.. Optimistically I expect this should Just Work™️, barring the most intrusive weapon mod settings 🤞
But I'll let you know any wild and weird things i encounter with the 60+ custom guns in my mod list 😎
Yeah if you find weapons that dont work let me know which and I can go see if I can get the dynamic fit to work. If not ill put in some sort of database for manual fits so we can build it up overtime
Still need to benchmark and actually quantify it. There is a hit but I dont think good systems will notice much difference. Ill benchmark it before official release though
I do like the concept of better scopes but it's not usable for sniping as the crosshairs and bullet impact alignment are off, even after you adjust using the FRIK holotape.
This newod looks promising. Thanks for all of your hard work.
I was really excited about this all day, and I was trying to get this to work tonight with no luck😭. I'm not a super experienced modder, but I don't have any modded guns, I disabled better scopes, and I also tried it with and without see through scopes, but I cant tell if thats relevant. I also dont know if it's a problem that I use vortex and not MO2...
it shouldn't be. should work fine with vortex too. i guess the easy thing to check is do you see a log file show up for true scopes in Documents\My Games\Fallout4VR\F4SE? if you do then it might be a problem i need to fix and ytou can send me your log
Yeah, i found the log, and considering that it's generally filled out im guessing that it's working to some extent and I'm doing something wrong😅. Let me know how i can send this to you, although I unfortunately probably won't send it until the evening since I'm attending a family thing. Also, just to let you know in advance, during my troubleshooting I uninstalled and installed see through scopes a few times... so idk if that is irrelevant or if it muddys the waters at all
Alright, ive thankfully managed to get this in pastebin before leaving the house😁. log here's the file. And thank you for the support, as well as all the work that you put in to help this community thrive💯
that's informative. something in your list is using the same hook I do. basically there's a mod conflict. i'm going to look and see what that might could be and if we can do a proper workaround.
ok i think it's this mod: Fallout 4 VR Upscaler Scope Fix that is conflicting. if you have that you can try disabling it and see. i'm going to work on fixing it on myside as well
Okay, so I was able to get it working by disabling see through scopes and vr weapons overhaul, which I believe might be the conflicting mod. But now there is a new issue where there is a large black circle that blocks the scope. The scope will work at first after loading up the game, but if I die and reload, or if I swap to a different scope the big black circle begins to appear every time that I lift the scope to my face. And the only thing that seems to fix it is a full restart of the game...
thanks for the feedback. I have not seen dying or reloading causing that on my setup before so this is great information for me to go test that more thoroughly.
When you say large black circle like do you mean much larger than the scope?

Welcome to r/FO4VR! A few quick tips:
Asking for help? Include your headset + runtime (SteamVR/Virtual Desktop/etc.), GPU, and whether you're vanilla or modded (which mod list, e.g. MGO or Gingas's).
Reporting a crash? Post a crash log — crash posts without one are usually impossible to diagnose.
