Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades Update 118 Overhauls Optics and Night Vision
Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades Update 118 delivers an overhaul to reflex sights alongside new night vision headsets like the FNVG and PNV57E. The update also introduces LPVO options, physical scope controls, and extensive attachment support for pistols.
Update 118 for Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades concludes an overhaul cycle for reflex sights and introduces military hardware. The release brings fresh night vision units, variable optics, and attachment compatibility across numerous firearms.
New Optics and Night Vision Systems
The update introduces the FNVG headset, featuring a fused thermal camera in the right eye complete with a custom user interface. The Soviet Gen-1 PNV57E tank night vision system is available in head-mounted and weapon-mounted configurations. The ST6T Low Power Variable Optic arrives in Black and FDE alongside a batch of new reflex sights, including the VUH1, S2, and H507c.
Reflex Sight Overhaul and Compatibility
Dozens of older reflex sights use the physical shader system, featuring accurate reticle brightness and persistence when vaulting. Pistol sight support expands, adding RMR mount compatibility to handguns such as the CZ75 Shadow, FiveSeven, Glock series, M9A3, and USP Tactical. Several older optics are retired to clear space for the updated attachment catalog.
Weapon and Item Tweaks
The Sustenance MP7 no longer spawns with a built-in reflex sight, instead appearing with an attachable version. ACOS TA31 scopes feature functional fiberoptic-driven reticle brightness. Fixes address spectator camera IPD offsets, item spawner image errors, and manual reloading issues for speedloaders including the .38 Special and .455 Webley.
Why this patch matters
Update 118 modernizes the optics ecosystem in H3VR, expanding loadout variety and cleaning up attachment quirks.
