WeaponSights_Zoom Overhaul

by WheelAxle & Gunter Severloh

 

Description

When you look down the iron sights of infantry weapons in Arma 3 some
of the sights are very small, making it challenging to hit anything unless you're close or use

the zoom feature to zoom or magnify the sights.
 

What does this do?

This addon will automatically zoom iron sights & attachments sights for all infantry weapons to

the max when you normally had to hold rmb or use the zoom key.

What DLC's & Mods does this work for?

  • All vanilla Arma 3 weapons
  • Bi Created DLCs:  Apex, Contact, and Marksmen
  • Creator DLC Weapons:  CSLA, GM, SPE, SOG, & WS
  • IFA3_AIO
  • RHS
  • Partial CUP support

What weapons does this work for?

  • Rifles
  • Semi-Rifles
  • Assault Rifles
  • Sub-machine guns
  • Machine guns
  • Pistols
  • Launchers without scopes
  • Sight Attachments

 

Author Notes:

  • Built this addon off of Gunter's original and incorporated his IFA3 and RHS mod. CUP support is partial like the original, as there will be multiple scopes that aren't zoomed in.
  • Created this addon because my finger was starting to hurt more and more as I'm getting old trying to hold the mouse down. Gunter had no plans for cdlcs.
  • No Compats needed as the addon will automatically detect what cdlc/mods you are running and activate depending on which are loaded.
  • Nothing else planned for now unless there are huge bugs.

Oh my, weren't we talking about this the other day? Nice going Günter, I'll be sure to give it a go when I get back to it.

 

Just a small request, unless I'm missing it here somehow, alternative links for direct downloads would be great, thanks!

Update

added a new version of the mod.

 

This is the No zoom version, does same exact thing as the original except it removes the zoom.

Great! While I find it fully zoomed in to be "as intended" use of sights, options are always more then welcome.

Ya as requested on the workshop for the other zoom, WheelAxle put together the no zoom version.

Ideally what i'd like to do and this was asked in the past on my other zoom versions is have the option where you can adjust the zoom

to different settings via CBA.

    Whats really neat if for those of you who own Arma Reforger is, in that in the options you can not only adjust your

FOV but also adjust the FOV of your weapon zoom, and any range, if i can get something like that for this mod then

it would eliminate the different versions.

Woot, Reforger has FoV settings? Maybe it's not so bad then... heh. Lame jokes aside, yeah, I used to love that in Battlefield 3 and 4 introduced some additional options. Then later, CoD adopted bunch of settings and these days you have something like Insurgency Sandstorm which is just FoV settings galore. 😄

 

Edit: Insurgency actually has bunch of sensitivity settings in regards to various FoV levels instead. Totally different thing but very useful nonetheless.
