Chinese Rifle Missing

[ChineseRifle123]

The Chinese Rifle is missing in my game, it's visible on the sheriff in Megaton but I am unable to pickpocket it from him and I can't load it in using console commands any fixes for this?

You can't pickpocket weapons or armors that are equipped by NPCs. I think lStewieAl's Tweaks has a setting to allow this.

Using console commands to add items from FO3 and it's DLCs need to have their base ID changed. Our FAQ has instructions on how to do this:

If you're trying to pickpocket the CAR when Lucas Simms has a different weapon equipped, and/or you're using the correct base ID with your console commands and it's not working, then that means you must have a mod that somehow breaks the TTW CAR. Which is a pretty unique problem, since I never heard of any mod doing that before.
If this is the case, we would appreciate you telling us what mod is doing it, so we could place it on our incompatible mods list.

Thanks for the quick reply, I believe you solved my problem and answered all the questions I was going to ask, I will try everything you mentioned asap, maybe I should make a separate post for this but I seem to be running into an issue where when I manually download JIP as suggested when installing patch 3.2.2 it causes my game to crash, not sure if 3.2.2 isn't compatible with the newest release of JIP because as soon as I use the original JIP that is installed automatically with TTW 3.2/3.2.1 the games loads fine

The latest JIP LN requires the latest xNVSE (not the old NVSE).
If you haven't updated your old NVSE or old xNVSE to the latest xNVSE yet, that could be the problem.

I see, so I'll have to replace the existing nvse that is automatically downloaded with TTW with the newest version and JIP along with it?

[Risewild]

Yes.
