Some way to wear guns normally while using power armor?

[afgi98]

So, yeah

What I want (not so sure if possible) is a mod that allows me to holster my weapons normally like if i were using any other armor or clothing, or whatever, while im wearing power armor

I heard once that it can be done, but the animations will clip

I don´t really care about that (if that's the main problem anyway)

so, if someone can make that, I'd really appreciate it

Remove the "has backpack" flags in FNVEdit. Should work well.

I don't use power armor in FONV, so I'm curious what the issue is.

the thing is, that when u wear power armor, the weapons u holster on your back get flipped, like, ussually the gunstock goes over your rigth shoulder, and with the power armor, the stock goes down, and the barrel ends up on your left shoulder

i'm not so sure if i explained it well...

I don't think it matters, as neither the flag/mask or the bipod object backpack is selected for any of the power armors in my geck/fnvedit. In other words, there is no "has backpack" flag to remove, it's not ticked, and is just erroneous info that got into the mix.

From the wiki;

 

"In Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, any weapon that is holstered on a character's back is normally hanging off the right shoulder diagonally with the barrel downwards. However when wearing any form of power armor the gun is hanging diagonally off the left shoulder with the barrel pointing up. This is because power armor prevents the arm movements necessary to unholster the gun when it is in its normal position."

 

There are power armor specific animations that are analogs of many of the normal character animations like attacks, sneak and some idles, and they have special drawing and holstering animations listed for PA. As I mentioned I don't use PA, so I'm curious if characters draw two handed weapons like rifles in the same way/animation (and thus grabbing the barrel) or does it switch to the way two handed melee weapons are drawn (ie from the bottom and grabbing the butt)?

I did a quick search through a rifle nif and didn't see anything that looked connected to the issue but that's easy to miss.

We are probably going to have to scour the forums for info on what triggers the weapons orientation unless someone can contribute the arcane info.
