I love the Grease Gun, BUT I found it to be waaay too strong. On Hardcore it melted basicly everything strait out the box in milliseconds. Maybe if it was exclusive to late game but it's on Raiders almost immediately and it shreds like a 50cal. Had to remove it from the LO because it just wasn't balanced.
Learning to use F04edit is a must if youre gonna add mods to your game, changing the damage of a weapon only takes seconds, Leveled list integration might take some time to perfect but it should be pretty straight forward, you can also make it Standalone if you want to.
One of the main issues I find with weapon mods, almost always ends up with your level 8/10 character having some serious firepower, and it doesn’t have a proper flow of character building
seen an issue I have with the Grease Gun in most games is that and the fact it's WAY too accurate at long ranges, it was given to tank operators for if they needed to get out to fix it they had something besides a pistol for protection but it wasn't accurate at all, hell most SMGs aren't that accurate, and was truly a spray n' pray weapon
Currently playing with Hardcore Health Overhaul + True Damage. All guns (bullets) deal damage according to their caliber. So any modded guns are going to Just Work. All legendary effects and enemies have been removed, which is just a vast improvement if we are being honest. Really there is no going back once you try this kind of setup. There are multiple mods and methods to achieve a similar setup, of course.
I quit FO4 back in 2018. I used to whatch Juice, Baters, EpicNate, and poir to them, Thenthaple for FO3 And NV. I just got back on it, and you have been added to my Hall of Fame Fallout content. Placed 1st on my YT load order. Keep it up 👊🏽
One thing about Miami's Uzi is that PA animations didn't recieved nearly as much love as regular ones. Hell you can't even throw a grenade if you have this Uzi equipped while using a Power Armor because throwing animation is bugged and ends half way through.
@@peckneck2439 Exactly. Though, at least it sounds like the gun itself works. I remember a cool pump action shotgun mod I installed just didn't work at all in Power Armor.
1) I recommend the sten mk2 mod, and this year wonderful animation pack came out for it. 2) the mac-1? has an interesting history so I recommend reading up on it 3) does anyone know about a valmet rifle mod? Thx.
I agree that both weapons are but the mods that represent them aren’t. They’re very modern and tactical with their attachment selection and don’t really have that fallout feel
@@DegenerateDak I agree. MP5s are way lore friendly but RIS with lasers may not be as much. Especially if it involves plate carriers and other gear that only showed because of the influence of GWOT in the 2000s. I encourage more mod authors to take inspiration from 1950s/60s uniforms, gear and weapons for lore friendly mods.
I actually mildly dislike the Mac-10 mod, simply because of the obnoxious amount of messages it vomits on you whenever you it first initializes. Why can't weapon mods just have Level List support and stop there?
Hi dak love yeah content! Curious do you happen to know any good mods that add in a more variety of pipe weapons & post war weapons that would be good for the low level list? Maybe even more ww2/1 style weapons with tarkov customization?
It’s cool when certain weapons are only available to certain factions, but it just isn’t my preference. I’d love if that Uzi was found on Raiders, Gunners, and Minutemen as well. On Xbox, mod space and lack of leveled list replacers for certain guns make it hard to choose certain things. So I usually go for the IMI Uzi instead and just run it with the wood stock.
Dak for some of these SMGs from the Early to mid-20th Century it is quite possible for them to survive into the 2280s as most were built tough and over engineered or in the case of Sten and the Grease Gun were mad so simple from easily machined and stamped parts that they were rugged. For most WW-1 and WW-2 firearms and many pre-WW-1 firearms I have no issues with them surviving into the time of Fallout 4. They were made very rugged with few exceptions. A P-08 Luger or some C-96 Mauser pistols were maintenance headaches. The P-08 for example sucked as a field issue pistol, but excelled in the German Imperial Navy and among German Imperial police units. It attracted too much dirt for a combat environment and that's why the P-38 Walther was adopted as a replacement. Depending on who made the C-96 under contract it was an excellent pistol for out in the field or a piece of crap. The same goes for the M-1911 and M-1911A1. The ones even today made by real firearms makers work great in all environments. However if you are unfortunate enough to latch on to one made by Remington-Rand (a business machine manufacturer in the early and mid-20th Century) you have the vary piece of Junk G.I.s from the 1950s through the 1980s complained about. I know on the M-1911A1 as I had two different ones issued to me as a 19E between 1986 and 1992 in an Army National Guard Armor unit. We were the B Company for two different battalions of the same Armor Regiment. For the first 3 years as B Company of the First Battalion of the Regiment I was issued a Remington Rand M-1911A1 that was completely worn out and in need of serious Arsenal Rework. I never could hit the center of mass of a shiloette target during qualification with it despite the sights lining up where I aimed. For the next 3 years as B Company of the Second Battalion of the same Regiment I was issued an M-1911A1 built by Ithica in 1941. Despite its age I always scored expert with that pistol. Since then I have acquired a Rock Island Armory Mil=Spec M-1911. For those in the know Rock Island Armory is a subsidary of the Philippine company Armscorp. This pistol fresh out of the case was great and even today some twelve years after I bought it the pistol still shoots straight where I aimed it. Had I children to pass it on to I would suspect it to be around in 2237 or later serviing whoever has it then. The only mod I did to it was to replace the laquered and polished Filipino hardwood grip panels with MagPul stippled polymer panels with a thumb slot on the left side panel. Otherwise the pistol is as it was purchased back in 2011.
Bethesda (deservedly) gets a lot of flak for its poor weapon designs in Fallout 4, although in my opinion the SMG is maybe the least egregious (honourable mention to the Pipe Revolver as well for its believable box-of-scraps design) on account of it basically being a box receiver Thompson with an Owen's separated recoil assembly. Functional, practical, reliable, desirable. So why is it so pointless in-game??? And worth noting that some of the mods showcased here are being integrated into DankRafft's ECO framework via the Weapon Integration Project and thus have non-conflicting compatibility with Gunsmith Overhaul. If you're not using ECO and GSO because of AWKCR dependencies... rethink your life and build a new profile.
man it's nice to have a channel run by a mod author that does videos like this so I can know which ones got the love and attention I love to see from mods and which didn't (made the mistake of downloading a Modder's Resource thinking it was a standalone weapon and the R91 mod I use's animations are off with no reanimation out and the mag just goes into the side of the mag well somehow), list like this I'd personally love to see is mods that add gritty reality to the wasteland, things like Raiders being the strung out, raping, kidnapping psychopaths that the lore presents them as and just generally making the game more oppressive and bleak in it's depiction of the world even if the gun play is still standard FO4 (personally like that to stay as far from realistic as vanilla gunplay can get, I only use Uneducated Shooter (mainly to fix the issue with not being able to crawl under things you should be able to) and Better Locational Damage as an ammo conservation method) only ones I've found that do something similar are Crime and Punishment, Gun for Hire, Mutilated Dead Bodies, and Child Raiders and Other Horrors of the Commonwealth
this game is so sick in it's ideas (and inconsistent withing it's own lore...) that it's hard to invent something not 'lore-friendly'. my opinion. want to play as anime girlie? no problem, you've just found cosplay costume in this superduper mart. want to jump as high as sky? you just mutated into some flea-man... why folks have this lore-friendly-paranoia anyway? the world ended, maybe some million people left on earth, but everyone live in devastated shacks and wear clothes more dirty than yaoguai's ass... they all should live in those suburban villas, wearing guccis and versaces .. or something. there should be plenty of such crap around... so why 20ton power armor jetpack is lorefriendly, but modern camo harness with cool gadgets are not? just saying crap. as always. thanks for content, it's so convinient to have nexus roadmap.
Does the Ingram has a recoil and firing speed that makes it completely uncontrollable? So that you might hit with the first rounds but are pretty much guaranteed to empty the rest of the magazine into the air without hitting anything, before you can take your finger off the trigger? (Unless you’ve added the giant supressor or is wearing power armor.) No? Then I won’t install that mod. I don’t care if the textures are nice if the gameplay entirely fails to reflect the actual real world handling.
Hey dak you think you could do a tactical reload mod tutorial on how to get it working in your load order? I’ve tried to find one but there isn’t one but I enjoy your videos they are very helpful thanks
You just kinda install it like any mod, not really sure what a tutorial would be good for. If it’s not working for you then either you’re missing a patch or you have a conflict
@@DegenerateDak I think it has to do with the fact that a lot of people have an issue with it where it won't let you reload at all unless your gun is empty and people wanting to know if they are doing something wrong, I could never get it to work right either so I just avoid mods that require it
any chance you could remesh the vanilla fallout 4 smg the same way you did for the makeshift combat rifle? or has someone already improved the original that im unaware of?
*here is a little list of all the SMG's from fallout 1, 2, tactics, 3 and 4 (i dont care about 76 and shelter has nothing new)* 10mm SMG H&K P90 H&K G11 M3A1 H&K MP5 MP38 Walther MPL Uzi Scorpio Sten Calico Liberty 100 American 180 SMG/ .22 SMG 12.7mm SMG H&H Nail Gun 9mm SMG and the tommy gun/ .45 SMG thats already in vanilla fo4
It's funny when shooty people make mods to un-goof BGS lack of firearm knowledge and then WILLINGLY make a mod to put the M3 in 9mm. It's bonkers and hilarious.
I mean, its not as absurd as a lot of bgs' gun blunders. Given how simple the grease gun is, the concept can easily be downscaled. Its just one step above garage built guns like the luty
I always appreciate the Grease Gun in video games. The Thompson gets all the attention but the M3 is just a much more interesting weapon and I always have more fun with it, whether it's Fallout, Battlefield, or COD. Also, it's easy to handwave the Suomi as actually being a Stemple SMG; those are NFA-registered Suomi receivers that are still relatively easy to find today and probably the "cheapest" machine guns on the market in the US, because of how many there are. Stemples come in a variety of configurations, including as Thompsons and even an MG.34. Forgotten Weapons has a bunch of videos on different Stemple builds that are definitely worth a look if you're interested in older weapon systems.
@@peppermillers8361 I would like to agree with that but for the existence of the ATF in the Fallout universe (under the name BADTFL, whose office you can loot in Fallout 4). The fact the agency was expended to regulate chems *and* lasers suggests the State is still not super fond of anyone but the government being able to defend itself, and machine guns were also functionally banned for all but the wealth by the National Firearms Act, which was passed before our point of divergence with the Fallout universe, meaning the reason Stemples are interesting and would explain the Suomi's presence are still valid in that universe as well.
@@peppermillers8361 I didn't realize they were the game's version of the ATF until I saw that organization refer to themselves as the BATF. Their office is a great place to hit for mid to high tier weapons, especially if you run mods, so it's always worth a visit.
I downloaded all the WW2 and Korean wars and some WW1 war weapons for my game as I consider them all lore-friendly. :) I love the MP 40 and the MP 3008 and the luger 9mm and the Gewehr 98K Mouser. I love all the WW2 era weapons. And I can not go without the US .50 Cal Heavy Machine Gun and the German MG 42; they put the minigun to shame. :) And the BAR M1918 is a must! And a few Japanese WW2 weapons. I do not know offhand how the Korean war fits in the Fall out timeline if it even does.
The grease gun is fun as hell to shoot. It was used by tankers as it was small enough to fit in tight places and during the Korean war, helicopter pilots used them as well for the same reason. And using the .45 ACP was cool too as the Thompson SMG and the 1911 .45 semi-auto handgun all used the same ammo. :)
Hey if you haven't seen Nexus is reinforcing their guidelines against having links to patreon and such on mod pages while monetizing mods even in the form of early access. Might wanna remove those links or change your patreon perks before May 6th.
It's the mod: "Raider Gangs Extended". The "Hell-Raiser" enemies are simply one of the many raider gangs the mod adds in. The mod also adds in many bosses/named NPCs, as well as some factions that aren't really raiders, but instead their own smaller groups/tribes (some of which aren't even aggressive towards the player).
