About this video

Does anybody else experience this issue with iron sights?I have been working on a new scope mod, seen in this video with the Sniper Rifle, which has led me to really focus on this shaking iron sights bug.

It appears the affect the rear of the weapon most, so is especially noticeable on two handed rifle weapons. Even worse when the rear sight is close to the screen, as with the Cowboy Repeater, and unfortunately all of the new scopes in my mod.

Also as demonstrated this does not happen in interiors, only the exterior. I've also watched a few old AlChestBreach videos and noticed it there whilst he is aiming, so I am assuming it affects everybody, but there don't seem to be many reports and certainly no fixes.

I'd be eager to hear feedback on this in the hopes of finding a way to fix it.

    Maybe the player was originally intended to be a compass.

      That's a shame, definitely too advanced for me to fix then.

    Yeah, Marcurios is right. You just have to learn to live with that problem. But tbh it doesn't even look bad, the shake is minimal, you can just pretend its the hands that are shaking and that is fine.

      I agree its not bad on the iron sight weapons, just very noticeable on the scopes in my mod, though they are still accurate hopefully it won't put people off.

    Everyone has that, it's the way the sightingnode is put in it's place, something to do with the blend between the sightingnode and sightdrift and aimis animation i suspect. it might be that in exteriors the game has more other things to do (more distant rendering takes performance) so then the effect gets more pronounced. maybe they should have interpolated the sightingnode anim over time a bit more to smooth out the motion. It seems to me that they're trying to correct the position each keyframe and that causes the jitter cause it corrects/blends 30 times a second.
    It might also be that making AimIS animations have more frames then just the 2 could help alleviate this problem, but i'm not entirley sure, cause i don't know what the sightingnode is doing in the code since it's not a kf file.

    Just guessing here, but that's what i think.

    It's just something you have to get used to when playing NV, maybe one of the plugin coders could check the sightingnode hardcoded anim to see if they can smooth it out by lerping the anim.

    Notice that as long as you keep moving your weapon when you use IS that it doesn't do that, it only does it when you hold it still.
    i don't have it with scopes, you have a mod that let's scoped weapons use the IS animations or something (cause i don't see the regular scope nif there)? Like the old Optics Of New Vegas or something like that ? It's clear that using scopes this way intensifies the effect.

      On my end the effect is far worse whilst moving when aiming. Oh well it will just have to stand then, so long as my meshes sights are accurate we'll just have to compensate for the shakes.

    i legit thought this was a feature of the game. like to add some realism since you cant hold a gun perfectly still IRL

      Makes sense to me, always thought it was an intentional feature. If it's a bug turned feature, that's fine by me too.
