This mod lets you equip any weapon as a side arm
I was inspired by Xeronkar’s More side weapons, but it does not seem to be updated anymore
since S2 had some mayor patches, it no longer works
This is just a new version. This mod was developed with Stalker HOC 1.5.1 so it’s working at the current release, don’t ask for older versions support
Installation:
use vortex or install manually
Manual Installation:
download the mod and extract it with 7zip
Place the .pak file into this directory: “S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Heart of Chornobyl/Stalker2/Content/Paks/~mods/”.
If the “~mods” folder doesn’t exist, create it and place the file inside it.
if you’re using other mods that modify WeaponPrototypes.cfg like Better Ballistics use simple mod merger or modify the WeaponPrototypes.cfg yourself (when the game updates and I’m unable to update the mod)
in WeaponPrototypes.cfg search for EInventoryEquipmentSlot::PrimaryWeapon and change every weapon Type to ItemSlotType = EInventoryEquipmentSlot::Pistol
