Timescale Adjuster v2.2
CarlCorey
Version update info: You can just install this over 2.1 and overwrite the files, your timescale setting should remain intact. If you have a version earlier than 2.1, please uninstall the old version of Timescale Adjuster before you install version 2.2. The file "Timescale Adjuster.esp" is now "Timescale Adjuster.esm". Just installing this over the older version will leave an extra file in the Data directory and confuse things. You will need to redo your timescale settings if you had changed them from the defaults.
Description:
Dynamically changes the timescale based on player location. There is another mod that does this in a different way. I wanted a little more location specific control and direct support for all of the DLC packages. There are DLC enabled and Vanilla versions of the esp file. You can use the Vanilla version even if you have DLC installed and it will work fine for the most part. I'll talk about where it doesn't down below. The DLC version requires all 5 DLC packages.
When you start or load a game after installing this, you will be given a new Pip-Boy accessory which you can use to adjust the timescale settings for various locations. The accessory will be on your Apperal tab. To activate the settings menu, select the accessory in the Pip-Boy. The menu will then pop up when the Pip-Boy is put away. The locations you can set specific timescales for are as follows, the default/staring values in parentheses.
Requirement:
Fallout Script Extender (FOSE) version 1.2 or later. You can download this from http://fose.silverlock.org/
Some notes:
I was a little subjective in my definition of "Metros, Caves and Tunnels" in a couple cases. The Fairfax Metro, Northwest Seneca and the portion of the Meresti Metro that The Family occupies are considered "Interiors". In the DLC version, the Costal Grotto on Point Lookout is also considered an "Interior".
The Tranquility Lane simulation and the Anchorage simulation in the DLC version each have a single setting regardless of whether you appear to be outdoors. This is to represent the unreality of the simulations and that perhaps time in the "real world" and perceived time in the simulation perhaps don't always match.
In general, if you use the Vanilla version, most of the DLCs will behave pretty well with some exceptions:
Installation:
You can install manually or via a mod manager. The mod has a texture for the Pip-Boy icon an esm file and two esp files. These files are:
If you install via NMM or other FOMOD aware mod manager, it should detect whether you have all five DLCs and whether you have See You - Time for Bed installed and install the appropriate plug-ins.
To uninstall, remove the esm and esp files and the file textures/interface/timescaleadjuster/Pip-Boy Accessory.dds

If for any reason you want to use this in another mod, or if you want to translate it to another language, you do have permission but please let me know and give me credit.
As always, I assume no responsibility for this to work on your game as it does on mine and no responsibility for any harm or damages that may come as a result of using this mod.

In general, if you use the Vanilla version, most of the DLCs will behave pretty well with some exceptions:
- The Operation Anchorage simulation will follow Interior and Exterior rules and not be treated specially. Bailey's Crossroads Metro will be "Interior"
- Broken Steel locations will all be Interiors and Exteriors; Metros, tunnels and the Mobile Base Crawler will all be "Interiors"
- The Pitt, likewise
- Point Lookout has very few locations that need special handling. Herzog Mine and Kenny's Cave will be "Interior"
- All of Mothership Zeta will be "Interior"
Installation:
You can install manually or via a mod manager. The mod has a texture for the Pip-Boy icon an esm file and two esp files. These files are:
- Timescale Adjuster.esm - totally vanilla, no requirements other than Fallout3.esm. Required.
- Timescale Adjuster DLC.esp - special consideration for DLC specific locations. Requires ALL FIVE DLCs and Timescale Adjuster.esm
- Timescale Adjuster See You.esp - compatibility adjustments for co-existence with See You - Time for Bed by sesom. Requires that mod and Timescale Adjuster.esm
If you install via NMM or other FOMOD aware mod manager, it should detect whether you have all five DLCs and whether you have See You - Time for Bed installed and install the appropriate plug-ins.
To uninstall, remove the esm and esp files and the file textures/interface/timescaleadjuster/Pip-Boy Accessory.dds
