Weapon Replacements – Auto Axe
Replaces the Chainsaw, Minigun, or Mr. Handy Buzz Blade with the cut/unreleased Auto Axe.
The Auto Axe is a cut/unreleased automatic two-handed melee weapon in Fallout 76 that was originally featured in Fallout 3. Like some other weapons featured in other Fallout games, the Auto Axe was planned to be added in Fallout 76 possibly around the Wastelanders update. You can learn more about the Auto Axe at the Fallout fandom wiki.
WARNING: The game lowers the volume of some sounds including the Minigun’s barrel spin sounds, which this mod replaces with the sounds from the Auto Axe mods. I countered this by increasing the volume of the sounds from the Auto Axe mods by about 2.5 times, so be aware of this if you decide to listen to them outside of the game. Also note that the chainsaw also uses the Minigun shredder barrel spin sound.
NOTE: Because some of the options of this mod replace a lot of game assets, they come with side effects. Most notably, the Mr. Handy Buzz Blade replacement options replace most two-handed melee weapon animations, causing two-handed melee weapons to be held by players and NPCs in a strange way.
