Mod Introduction
Adds centered iron sight meshes and animations for most vanilla guns
Last updated 03.24.12
01.02.2025
Ignore anything I've said previously about never working on this mod again. Look for an update sometime in 2025.
RH_IronSights is a full replacement package for meshes, textures, and animations, designed to "unlock" iron sights aiming. Fallout 3.
Being able to look directly down the sights of a gun in-game is very immersive. Unfortunately, though Bethesda put the framework for an iron sights system in place, it wasn't included in the final game. So **Fallout 3** Players miss out on this classic FPS gameplay mechanic.
The aim of RH_IronSights (pun intended) is to modify the .nif mesh of every vanilla weapon and the .kf file of every necessary animation to enable true, perfectly centered iron sights.
This is a tricky process and can cause some conflicts. It's recommended you have at least a moderate level of modding experience if you want to use RH_IronSights with other major weapon mods.
I haven't tried any of the following mods; if you're so inclined, please leave a comment in the Posts Section with your experiences. If you have a weapon you've adjusted for RH_IronSights, let me know and I'll post the link here, or set RH_IronSights as a requirement for your mod so it shows up in the Requirements Section!
This mod alters the mesh files for dozens of vanilla weapons, including most—if not all—weapons in the Small Guns and Energy Weapons categories. All animation files related to weapon aiming, as well as some tied to firing and reloading, have also been changed as necessary. will Create mod conflicts! I have made multiple patches, and more have been published by the FO3 modding community. As a rule of thumb, try to load RH_IronSights files as late in your load order as possible.
The optimal load order looks like this:
Q: "None of my weapons are centering."
A: There may have been an installation issue. Make sure there isn't a Data folder inside your game's main Data folder—any folders with the same name should merge and overwrite as needed. Also ensure that the .esm and .esp files are enabled in your mod manager. If nothing else works, try re-downloading and reinstalling the mod.
Q: "Some weapons center when firing, but not while aiming."
A: If you're using weapons from the base game or a supported plugin that don't center while aimed but do center when fired, you probably have a file loaded after RH_IronSights in your load order that modifies the same files, causing a conflict. Place the RH_IronSights .esp files as low (late) in your load order as possible, and use FO3Edit to identify any mod conflicts. If you're creating your own weapons and having trouble with them centering when fired but not when aimed, this is caused by the 'Don't Use 1st Person IS Animations' flag, which can be removed in the GECK or FO3Edit. And if you have a weapon that does not center when fired — or Aimed, it's probably intended to work that way. For example, large weapons like the Railway Rifle and all Big Guns are not supported by RH_IronSights (and never will be).
Q: "Wait wait wait hold up -- why won't Big Guns ever be supported?"
A: To center a weapon, the model needs to be tweaked and often scaled down so its sights align with the center of the screen. For Big Guns to be centered, I'd have to shrink them so much they'd become Little Guns. Nobody wants that. Rest assured, Big Guns are best fired from the hip.
Q: "Does this mod work with mods that add a lot of weapons like FWE?"
A: I have made patches for three major weapon mods: FWE, EVE, and CFW. I have also made a patch for WMK (which doesn't add any weapons but I figured I'd mention it). Any other patches will have to come from our talented modding community.
Q: "My characters are shooting into the sky or into the ground."
A: That is caused by an animation conflict. If you have **Fallout 3 Re-Animated** Installed, use the FO3RA patch found in the Optional files section. Please comment in the Posts Section if you see this problem with any other mods.
Q: "Is this a finished mod?"
A: After about oh gosh let me see (checks watch13 years later, I'm coming back to this mod to clean it up and make sure it works well with modern setups. There may be small tweaks, but the overall mod is unlikely to see any major changes going forward.

First of all, a big happy birthday to Skyrim. One year old today!
I’ve got a couple of small updates. First, the Better Uniques package is available again under the Miscellaneous section. Grab it if you’re using a plugin compilation that requires it. Also, sorry about uploading a version of the file earlier with an empty .zip — that was just me being careless.
Next, I'll be uploading a new version of the Remove Reticle plugin soon. It will remove the crosshair for pistols and rifles while aiming, but keep it for melee and heavy weapons. Still a work in progress, so please share your feedback!
Finally, I’m going to try and address some other issues people have been posting about, but I never seem to have enough time to work on the mod. Please stay tuned for future updates, and as always, thanks for your patience and for using my mod!
UPDATE: RH_IronSights BETA Update #1 is now available for download in the Main files section! It makes the noted changes to the Remove Reticule plugin, and also includes the missing scope texture for the Scoped Hunting Rifle. Let me know what you think!
10.24.12 Part II
Folks, I've finally found some time to work on the mod again. I will do everything I can to update the main files and fix some of the problems users have been experiencing. I still do not have a fix for the drifting problem, so if anyone has any insight into that issue, please contact me!
Watch for an update this Sunday!
10.24.12

Big things are happening with RH_IronSights...
First of all, the official RH_IronSights - WMK Bridge has reached the beta stage and is ready for testing! Download it from the Optional files section. Please give feedback on this important patch!
I should note that Wision's WMK-IronSights file has been removed from the Helpful Links section. No offense to Wision, but after testing that patch, I wasn't happy with it, so I decided to create my own.
The RH_IronSights - WMK Bridge will be in beta testing for about a week. Once I'm satisfied that it is complete, I will begin work on the long-awaited Apocalypse Armory patch. Stay tuned!
The FWE and New Weapons plugins have also been updated with the latest patches and bugfixes.
Finally, I'm removing the Better Uniques plugin. I never had the time to finish it, and I won't be able to make compatibility patches for all the bridges and plugin files I'm creating. Rip to Sydney's camouflaged SMG. If you absolutely need those textures, PM me.
Thanks everyone!

For anyone having trouble with the Reticule Remover mod, CarnivalOfFear discovered it may cause issues when using a 360 controller. Quote:
The reticule script uses an IsControlPressed line to check if the aim button is being held. The game's controller system uses different commands when a (360) controller is in use. So I mapped all the buttons to keyboard keys in Xpadder and gave it a try. It just didn’t feel right like using a controller normally should, so I enabled controller mode and it worked. It seems all control lines in the scripts adapt based on whether a controller or keyboard is active, allowing Xpadder to press the aim button (right mouse button). I then went back to Xpadder and disabled all buttons EXCEPT L-trigger = Right mouse button, and it works. Just a tip for anyone using a controller.
Hope that helps some folks. Kudos to CarnivalOfFear!

RH_IronSights has entered BETA!
The current version fixes the Gun Oil by removing unused menu options.

Version 1 of the RH_IronSights / FWE Patch is now available in the Optional "Files Section – Important Notes:"
* This is a straight-up FWE patch — no EVE or WMK yet (coming soon!)
* The patch requires both this mod and FWE to function; it is not a replacement for FWE.

Thank you all very much for your support during the development of this patch. ~ RH

* The "Crazy 88" v0.881 Beta of RH_IronSights has been uploaded to the Nexus!

- The Gun Oil now properly retains custom hand drift settings between sessions.

Thanks to jholdsclaw and EssGeeDee for helping me test this version. Thanks to Skyhawk469 for the reticule remover script my plugin is based on, and to Pelinor for the idea. And thanks to everyone who has endorsed this mod!

I have a few days to work on RH_IronSights, so I'll be fixing some DLC bugs and doing a bit of work on my mod bridges. If you have any requests, concerns, questions, or anything else, feel free to contact me. If you've already reached out and I haven't replied, please do so again—I've been a bit out of the loop the past few months. Thanks!

This small, simple patch fixes the longest-standing bug affecting this mod—the dreaded sneak-lean bug. Please share your experience with the patch in the comments—your feedback is greatly appreciated!
Oh, and don't go trick-or-treating where the Feral Ghouls live—they only give out Jolly Ranchers and pennies.

Version 1 of the RH_IronSights / FWE Patch is now available in the Optional "Files Section – Important Notes:"
* This is a straight-up FWE patch — no EVE or WMK yet (coming soon!)
* The patch requires both this mod and FWE to function; it is not a replacement for FWE.
* Only about 20 weapons have been added so far; the rest are hip-fire for now. This will change as more adjusted models are added in future patches.
Thank you all very much for your support during the development of this patch. ~ RH

* The "Crazy 88" v0.881 Beta of RH_IronSights has been uploaded to the Nexus!
This version contains several new fixes and features:
- Due to popular demand, the Revolver Rifle is now part of the 'New Weapons' plugin. This is a work-in-progress (WIP) model. Feedback is welcome!
- The aiming sights and attack animation of the Laser Rifle have been improved.
- The Gun Oil now properly retains custom hand drift settings between sessions.
- The 2hrhandgrip3_combatshotgun.kf animation has been improved.
- All five DLC packs include Basic plugins.
- New weapons like the 5.56mm SMG have been moved to their own plugin.
- The 'Remove Reticule' plugin removes the crosshair when using first-person iron sights.

You may want to remove your Textures/0roguehallow folder before installing, as it contains many redundant textures. Be sure to back up any changes you made to the folder before deleting it.
