FO3 - Can you recommend a mod that adds weight to ammo?

Hi,

can you recommend a mod for Fallout 3 (not New Vegas) that adds weight to all ammunitions?

With a quick search I've seen a couple on the nexus but they have low endorsements, post counts, downloads... makes me wonder if perhaps there's a problem.

Or maybe they're fine and it's just a shame that they are so poorly known?

Low endorsements/posts/downloads/etc. mean jack-s***, it usually indicates:

 

a) It's a simple mod edit, so people don't feel the need to endorse it or they can make it themselves within 30 minutes. Weighted bullets -are- a series of simple edits.

b) There's not much demand for such a function/mod. Like me for example, I would never weight my bullets/arrows, because do you have any idea how much strain it would cause in my inventory? I usually carry 1k of at least two kinds of ammo for different weapons that I may use (one combo being a Blackhawk/Experimental MIRV), my followers either carry 1k of the Alien Power Cell for the Alien Blaster, then there are the Terrible Shotgun and The Kneecapper, which combined is another 2k composed of shotgun shells. The point is, me and my followers would all be easily over-encumbered by such a mod, (even if I had 500 rounds of only ONE weapon) so that kind of terrible function would make me go pure melee. Which is suicide.

c) It's probably a relatively recent mod and most people prioritize "Most Endorsements" and don't really give "Most Recent" a lookie loo.

 

My suggestion? Get the GECK, open it up, go to the Ammo section and add the weight yourself, if you're still apprehensive. (Remember to put it into your FO3 directory!)
