Fallout New Vegas Mod adds additive stagger animations to NPCs


Modder ‘Kormakur’ has released a new mod for Fallout: New Vegas that adds stagger animations to all NPCs. This cool mod can make your game experience even better. So, if you’re replaying it now, you might want to give it a try.

As the modder noted, the hit reaction animations are layered or added on top of the current animations. This will give a more immersive experience in combat. At the same time, they won’t affect the game balance.

The strength of the animation depends on several things, like health, the intensity of the original animation, and the character’s current pose. This lets you actually see when a character is hit, even if they’re busy doing something else. For example, if an NPC is shooting or reloading, a pain or stagger animation will play on top without interrupting them. The good news here is that the hit reactions are just visual. As such, they won’t change the game’s balance.

In short, this is a cool mod that you can download from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a video for it. This video will give you an idea of what you can expect from it. So, be sure to watch it.
