Name: Weaponscanner for Fallout 3
Version: 2.0 (Final)
Requirements: This mod requires the Fallout Script Extender (DL Here: http://fose.silverlock.org/)

How good is your weapon really?

Description
===========
By default Fallout 3 gives you only very limited information about your weapons. The damage value FO3 provides is a bad basis for choosing your favourite weapon, as it doesn't take into account stats like a weapons spread, critical damage bonus, VATS AP cost and more.
To get those Values you would normally have to use GECK, FO3Edit or console commands. With this mod you finally have a simple ingame way of finding out those 'hidden' stats, even from weapons added or changed by mods!


How to use this mod
===================
Simply equip the weapon which stats you want to know and press the Weaponscanner hotkey while you are in your inventory(Default is 'E'). A message will pop up showing you all the vital statistics, even from weapons added by mods!

Via the Weaponscanner > item in your inventory you can change the hotkey to any key you like.


PLEASE NOTE
===========
- Weapon spread is how your fired shots spread, so the lower it is, the better is your weapons accuracy when firing rapidly
- The values are base values, meaning they show the damage a weapon would do when at 100% durability
- This mod will not display information for Explosive weapons like grenades and mines, because they work very differently then other weapons


Install
=======
Extract the .ESP File into your Fallout 3 Data Folder (for example C:\Program Files\Fallout 3\Data\)


Uninstall
=========
Delete the file khweaponscanner.esp located in \Fallout 3\Data


Compatibility
==============
Compatible with everything under the sun.
