VFE - Ammo Weight Patch

Description
This mod reduces the weight of the 7.62 & .22 boxes, along with the ammunition packs, cases, & crates provided by the Vanilla Firearms Expansion mod. All credit goes to the VFE team for the assets.

I play with mods that reduce ammo boxes by 50%, so I wanted to do the same for VFE's ammo packs, cases, and crates, along with the .762 and .22 boxes. Without these changes it would not be worthwhile for me to pack ammunition beyond boxes. This mod aims to help strike a balance between having a lot of ammunition and taking up container space in your safe houses.

Based on an assumed 50% reduction of ammo box weight relative to vanilla: 1) Ammo packs now weigh 10% lighter than the required 4 boxes, 2) Ammo cases weigh 10% lighter than the required 4 packs, and 3) crates weigh 50% lighter than the required cases of the respective ammunition types. Converting boxes to packs, cases, and crates will have an even greater impact on storage if you are accustomed to vanilla ammunition weights.

I definitely think you should include it in your description for the correct setup awareness. Thanks for the mod! Do you have a code repository of this mod? Maybe I can add a configurable option for weight reduction. :)

@Delfino Thanks! It's definitely not default settings in DG Configurable Ammo Weights; ammunition and magazine weights are on by default to have weight reduction as well.

Just making sure, to have the same behavior as your mod:

1. Install DG Configurable Ammo Weights mod.
2. Modify sandbox settings to have 50% weight reduction.
3. Turn off bare ammunition and magazine/clip weight reductions (unchecked).
4. Leave boxes weight reduction to on.

@Jenek The ammunition and clips are not touched. I only reduced the packaged weights of the boxes+ Boxes and beyond are the real killers in terms of taking up space with weight.

Does your mod also reduce clip weights? Seems to me there are 7.62 ans .22 mags and I'm not sure if they're reduced to half.

@Jenek My mod does not have settings or the ability to adjust the weights. I adjusted DG's weight mods to half of vanilla weight, which might be the default settings.

@Delfino thanks, how about the mod settings for that mod? I see there are settings for it, I am not sure exactly what settings fit in your mod (unless your mod is also configurable?)

@Jenek https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3201209313 is what you're looking for. The mod author also has weight mods for many other items. It helps tremendously.

What other mods did you use to patch the ammo weight? I want to do the same. :)
