Minigun Sound/Animation Fix Mod

[Darkf1re]

I've been looking for a mod that would restore minigun's spinup/spindown animation and sound to what it used to be like before it was removed,but so far no such mods have been made. Not sure if its even possible,but if it is,every minigun user out there,myself included,would be happy

I don't see anything about that on the wiki, did it happen after a patch or ??

Sorry for not answering earlier,i didn't have time to do so until now. It was removed in a patch indeed,why, i have no idea. That doesn't mean it couldn't be fixed tho. Can't i just copy Fallout 3 Minigun files to new vegas since they're very similar? Problem is that i don't have fallout 3 and even if i had i wouldn't know what to do with the files

Well your talking about the minigun spinning up right? That animation isn't a character kf, it's not a loose file you can copy over. Rather it's a animated object and the animations are stored in the nif itself (to the best of my limited knowledge). I believe you'd have to copy over a pre patch version of the minigun nif. That's obviously a long shot at best, unless someone hasn't played NV in ages. You could look for a old (pre patch) mod that had a modified model/mesh, but that's a long shot too.

 

Or as you mentioned, if the FO3 minigun is the same as NV's (and you actually had it) you could try dropping that in the 2handhandle folder. But because it's a different game no one can legitly give you one of their FO3's minigun nifs for NV.
