Mod Info

Introduction

Tarkov’s recoil feels kind of bland and weightless. This (relatively) 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. Feature requests are always welcome.

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

Preview

Somewhat outdated and not the best example of what’s possible with this mod. I’ll get around to making a better preview someday.

Installation

Drag and drop. Like any other mod.

Known Issues

  • Left stance pistol recoils look broken because vanilla left stance is wack. Pushed a temporary “fix”, but it’s still janky.
  • Pistol (real) recoils are weird. Just reduce the multipliers if needed
  • The occasional NullReferenceException. If you see any let me know.
Recommended Mods

A small list of mods I would recommend using alongside Recoil Rework:

… and a few others, but I’m gatekeeping them.

Realism

Realism & Recoil Rework

This mod is largely incompatible with Realism Mod’s recoil changes and causes weapons to go flying all over the screen when fired due to how Recoil Rework works. Because of this I would recommend not using this mod alongside Realism. Besides that Realism’s gunplay is great as is (thx fontaine)

However, if you REALLY want to use this mod with Realism then make sure to either edit the Recoil Rework config or disable Realism’s recoil changes within its server config. Good luck!

This mod is a must for me. So thank you for updating it for 4.0! Vanilla recoil is the absolute poops, and being able to tailor it to feel more realistic is great. Makes recoil/ergo mods seem like they actually make a big difference instead of only slightly. 10/10 mod.

So what are your settings?

Thank you for updating! This is one of the best mods imo, even after the vanilla recoil rework.

So if i just want to keep the tarkov recoil but without the crazy initial vertical jump up i use the 1.7.2 option? This is the best i have found so far by tinkering with the options. If anyone can guide me better please do so.

So far i have the 1.7.2 and the alternate recoil with compensation on and it seems alot easier to control than normal tarkov. Great work Pein thank you for all the hard work you put into this and ofcourse the work to update it to spt 4.0

Tinkered alot of setting and ended up with alternate recoil and vanilla stable recoil. So you have vanilla recoil without the huge starting climb of vanilla. So many options indeed quite amazing job there.

Hello, I would like to know if you are interested in trying to create another alternative recoil. This time related to the implementation of recoil in the style of 12.11 with an initial recoil toss and subsequent soft auto-compensation? (For reference, that recoil was very pleasant, it was spoiled in 12.12 by forcibly increasing it to 25% for all weapons and until patch 14 there was practically no attempt to correct the situation.) If so, I will be happy to help with materials for any request for a video for clarity.
upd: This is what I mean https://youtu.be/wetyNsFxL3I The recoil is smooth, the weapon’s behavior feels pleasant after each shot

If this becomes compatible with realism it’ll be the best recoil mod easily.

Well… it is actually, I adjusted a lot of the values and it works well enough. I just wish I could enable automatic recoil reset on the regular “real recoil” and not the alternate one

Using realism beta 3. Maybe talk to Fontaine to implement all the settings/mod ? I imagine many people will shift to realism.

thinking about adding realism compatibility when it gets updated

Love the mod along with Realism, just pistols are broken (which i never use anyway)

But aren’t the same or similar systems clashing ? it’s great if it works

It works you just need to reduce recoil position backwards quite a bit, and reduce recoil in general.
