Featured Recoil Rework 1.4.0

Introduction

Tarkov's recoil feels kind of bland and weightless. This lightweight mod aims to make recoil punchier by tweaking some recoil values. While I am open to suggestions, this mod is ultimately shaped by my own preferences and is thus highly opinionated around what I would like Tarkov's recoil to look and feel like.


I encourage you to play around with various settings to see what suits you.

Drag and drop. Like any other mod.

Known Issues

  • There's a rare bug where weapon recoil gets multiplied for seemingly no reason. I could replicate it by reloading my weapon and shooting without aiming down sights but there seem to be other causes. Setting the Recoil Angle Intensity config values to 1.0 seemed to make the issue go away at first glance. Let me know if this still happens with >1.3.0

  • Me and a Buddy are getting very different recoil amounts on a fresh install for both, is there any way you could do a video of the latest build using an m4a1 for example to show the baseline recoil and what to expect? Might help people who are on the fence about the mod as well :)!

    • Just to add to this, we had the same before, but after the implementation of the "Real Recoil" we get very different results

    • preview is a good idea, should have made one. currently not home though but ill make one later


      as for the recoil difference i wouldnt know without more details, i had my friends test 1.4.0 on fika and it seemed to work fine. could just be a config issue but im just guessing here. ill give it some testing when i get back home.

    • Thanks! On my end - My recoil was super dramatic in the hideout, but after getting in raid went back to normal, so a small bug on my end I guess!

  • Bro only if there was a way to bring pre 12.12.15 recoil back :S

    Thinking 1 Thumbs Up 1

  • Iff your thinking of ever doing one last update , see iff you could keep the orginal left lean animation that would be cool 👍

    • maybe if i find a way that prevents it from messing with the weapon's recoil pivot point (my best guess). otherwise ill improve compatibility and add a toggle.

  • Sweet man! thanks for increasing the left stance angle, ya a legend!

    Heart 1

  • Anyone else occasionally get crazy-high recoil for no (discernable) reason?


    I had to remove this from my mod list because, regardless of the weapon i had equipped, recoil would sometimes max out. I thought it might be based on arm stamina at first, but no. Then I thought it might be based on arm health, but it happened when I was at full health.


    EDIT: Nevermind, read the last line of the description. I look forward to it being patched, this rework feels a lot better than vanilla imo!

    Heart 1

    • the description was outdated, i think its caused by recoil angle intensity values being improperly applied. try setting recoil angle intensity values for both pistols and rifles to 1.0 and see how it goes.


      also, your modlist would be greatly appreciated :)

    • Reinstalled and left default configs as-is. Unable to recreate so far, but I'll leave it installed and let you know if I see it again. I don't remember changing the configs in my initial install, but *shrug*

  • Подскажите пожалуйста как тут убрать эффект попадания в тебя пуль? Ты только прицелился, если в тебя попадают( а рейдеры они всегда попадают) то просто не можешь выстрелить потому что тебя шатает из стороны в сторону из за их попадания по тебе.

  • does anyone else have a guns fire rate turn into like 2000 rpm and no firing sounds when downloaded?

    • nvm im as intelgent as room tempeture water

      Happy 2

    • Hey man all good we're all a little bit smooth brain sometimes xD

  • SO, you telling me that you ppl said that old recoil before 1.13 sucked, they changed it, and now you literally making it all the same as it was before 1.13? bruh.

    Thinking 2

  • Этот мод убирает отдачу, или наоборот добавляет? Есть тогда мод на отдачу 0 для версии 3.11?

    • можно в этом моде настроить отдачу так, что бы ее не было. пойграйся с настройками

    • А что изменить подскажите пожалуйста. Или скиньте пожалуйста готовую что бы отдача было 0. Спасибо.

    • here is a video with the settings you need and a comparison

      Thumbs Up 1

    • Вот спасибо друг.

    • Подскажите еще 2 момента,

      1. где там поменять значения что бы при перезарядке не шатало.

      2. Как убрать эффект шатания когда по тебе попадают пули.

      Спасибо.

  • hi!

    I would like to know, could you make the weapon SWING when shooting in the aiming mode as if from the hip? I showed an example in the video, how it would look in theory.

    • looks interesting, maybe in the future ill try to implement something like this

  • Will this work with realism when its updated?

    • more than likely not

      Crying 1

  • How can the uncontrollable muzzle rise during full-auto pistol shooting be eliminated?

    • tbh you really cant, the automatic pistols are a never-ending battle. for 1.1.0 i just got them to a state where theyre "playable".

  • Would it be possible to add more rotate percentage, because I was able to make a canted aim position but also felt like the percentage could be a bit more higher to rotate more, just a suggestion, I hope you continue working on this mod, it makes the game feel way better!

    Heart 1

    • thanks, sure

  • what mod do you use in the video to make the optic look like that

    like the blur

    • Amands Graphics - Settings - Weapon Depth of field/Optics Depth of field

  • UPDATE :love:

    Heart 1

  • feels pretty nice, I've only played SMGs in the last few sessions but they feel very real and nice

    Heart 1

  • What ive noticed is that the experimental Left/Right Stance Animation is pretty choppy, feels like its playing in 10fps... Other than that i am liking the pistols

    Thumbs Up 1

    • could come down to fps differences but ill give it more testing and see if i can make some improvements

      Thumbs Up 1

    • The choppyness also occurs when i am sitting at over 80fps, so its basically all the time

    • it does look and feel really choppy when toggling stances while aiming down sights, not so much when not aiming. ill see if theres any improvements i can do

    • yes while i was doing a raid like an hour ago it occured to me that i shouldve specified that it looks choppy when in ADS rather then in general. but thats exactly what i mean

      Thumbs Up 1

    • The update fixed it, great work!

  • thx to invite us to realgun shooting play. Is this mod compatible with Fontaine's FOV Fix mod?

    Heart 1

  • Hey i love this mod , its so good it actually makes it feel like a gun however i think it removes the head bobbing effect when walking and other things , just wanted to know iff they this is why and overrides it and iff it was possible to keep both, -- Head bobbing is in the game settings next to fov and i have it on highest because its immersive ,,

    Heart 1

    • thats unintentional, thanks for reporting it. ill try to figure out a fix for the next update

      Heart 1

    • Actually, could you please leave it in as an option? There is no mod to disable head bobbing for the current version of SPT.

    • of course

  • Im having an issue since installing the new version of this where my weapon is just randomly switching between left and right shoulder

    • crap give me a second LOL

      Heart 2

    • should be fixed

      Heart 1

  • I'm always watching

    Happy 2

  • is there any way to turn off the sway when ADS and strafing? that tarkov feature is very annoying lmao

    • no. i do want to do something with the sway but likely not for the next update. probably after though

  • Hey, the recoil of AUG in the rear is very strange, the amplitude of the scope's up and down vibration is too large, looks like it's hitting my eyes :D

    Thumbs Up 1

    • thanks, ill get a fix out soon™.

  • i started using pistols more and oh my fucking god the recoil feels just like IRL
    i actually shot a glock 17 gen4 in a shooting range like 2 weeks ago and the recoil on the pistols feels basically the same
    goated asf mod this is now mandatory for any SPT playthrough

    Heart 1

  • i cant even lie the recoil on the AK's with this mod make it feel like they ARE ACTUALLY SHOOTING REAL ROUNDS INSTEAD OF RECOILESS BLANKS
    holy goated mod

    Heart 1

  • very cool mod

    Heart 1

  • ну ладно... я не верю своим глазам, после 3.8.0 (мод на реалистичность для отдачи) не прошло столько времени, мод на нормальную отдачу. а тут появился ТЫ, я просто целую твои ноги, чувак , правда

    Heart 1

  • Is this also affecting modded weapons :think: i guess i can just find out but I agree this game needs better recoil overall. I'll edit this when i know if your mod is the solution =) at any rate thanks for your efforts and time spent on making a game we all like this much just better.

    • yes

    • im battling my mod load order since earlier eeer ... life .. but cool im looking forward to it . again thanks for your efforts and time !

    • I can legit not always notice its on which given i play lots game means 2 thing 1 im no quite used to tarkov recoil... and 2 your mod has to be feeling a minimum natural or i would see it as a problem. Thanks =)
