=============
-Description-
=============
A massive expansion to the New Vegas weapon modification system, adding over 150
new modification options to the game.
Every standard gun has received the maximum number of possible mods, as have all
but four Uniques. As a bonus, instead of removing mods from uniques, most have got
minor stat boosts to reflect the mods they come with, and most use that extra room
for some extra modding options.

Not enough? Being graphically inclined, every modification (that I've added) is
visible on your weapon, be it tapered barrels, a recycler, or a Double Load Missile
Launcher.

==============
-Installation-
==============
1. Move the contents of the rar file to your /data folder.
2. Arrange your load order (using a mod manager), Weapon Mod Expansion.ESM near the
top, Weapon Mod Expansion.ESP after other mods that change weapons.
3. May not be necessary, but using FNVedit to check for conflicts or create a
merged patch is suggested.

In Game: You may want to check Chet's for a couple of in game notes as well as a
free mod kit to get you started with WME. If you're using an existing save, you
may also want to wait three days for merchants to refresh.

================
-Uninstallation-
================
1. Ditch Weapons with any non vanilla mods in a place they will never be found
again.
2. Save your game.
3. Remove: the "WME" Folders in /textures/weapons/ and /meshes/weapons/ as well as
Weapon Mod Expansion.ESM and Weapon Mod Expansion.ESP.

Optional: I've created a simple uninstaller that shows non vanilla mods as REMOVE,
it can be found in the optional downloads.
===================
-Incompatibilities-
===================
Due to having to edit nearly every weapon's entry, WME will conflict with quite a
few mods that alter the vanilla weapons. Loading WME after these mods will ensure
none of the conflicts are fatal, however using FNVedit to check for conflicts or
create a merged patch is a great idea.

I may have missed some, but to my knowledge that's all of them (that asked for
permission anyways).

=============
-New Content-
=============
Current Count: 174

See the helpful list for full details.

Changed Kits:
12.7mm SMG Silencer -> 12.7mm SMG Extended Magazine (They actually have identical
silencers, brings it more in line with my new content)

Several mod kits being used by multiple weapons have received less specific names,
although most can easily be figured out.
However, these two may be a bit confusing:
Hunting Rifle Scope -> Long-Range Rifle Scope
Trail Carbine Scope -> Mid Range Rifle Scope

Changed Weapons:
It's completely against my general view of uniques, but I really felt that Mercy
seemed to make a lot more sense without it's standard High Speed Kit. It wasn't
reflected in it's stats at all, and I felt that it would have been too much of a
buff to tweak them.
Also includes a handful of Vanilla bug fixes related to weapons.

==============
-Bugs & Notes-
==============
I added a mod to my weapon, but all I get is a red !.
Make sure you've installed the mod correctly, and that your data folder contains
/meshes/weapons/wme. It may also be possible that your download was corrupted, or
you simply grabbed the wrong version OF WME.

I can't apply new mods to this/these weapons.

Load Weapon Mod Expansion.esp later in your load order.

I can't find the new mods on any of the vendors!

You'll need to wait three days for the vendors to refresh their inventory before
the new items can show up. They've been put in rotation though, so you may end up
with bad luck and only see vanilla mods, try a few vendors. If it still isn't
working, try moving the mod later in your load order.

Speed Loaders keeps showing up after equipping/holstering my weapon

Laser pointer visual isn't there when I equip my weapon
Other random parts are there/not there/not glowing.
Flamers, gatling laser, etc are there when they shouldn't be.
If you changed your armor, try re-equipping the weapon.
If you're using a pip-boy remover(including Readius), bind your weapon to a
hotkey to re-equip it without entering your pipboy.

Companions will not show their weapon mods, this is a Vanilla issue and not
something I can fix at the moment. It should be noted however that the mods effects
will still be active.

Weapon mods currently can not be removed from weapons. This is due to limitations
in both GECK and NVSE, when it can be done, I'll definitely be looking into it.

The .44 Magnum getting a silencer and or suppressor is unrealistic!

Somewhat, although I did edit the cylinder a bit when the silencer is on to take
out the gap, and ensured the casings were covering the other end.

If you find any other bugs, please report them in comments and I'll see what I can
do.
