v9.3.2

12/29/17


Description,

Have you ever thought about scavenging the Commonwealth, even though, the super mutants, Ghouls or Raiders
may horrifically and violently rip your heart out? 

Have you said to yourself "D*** the torpedoes, I am going into Downtown Boston or I'm heading to the coast!", only
to find once you arrive that 99% of the shops and houses are all boarded up?
 
Have you ever wondered "Why hasn't anyone looted these buildings in the last 200 years?" (Well 210 years to be
exact, give or take the rotation of the earth and a few dings to my chronometer!)

If so, then this mod is for you!

The Beantown interiors project, the sister mod to Fallout 3's D.C. Interiors Project and Fallout New Vegas's
N.V. Interiors Project, promises to bring many of the elements from my previous mods which you've come to know
and love, into Fallout 4. I also hope to add more depth and, features, as my modding skills progress. This Mod opens up many of the boarded building for you to explore.

I'm happy to announce that all single story wood frame houses that can be opened up now are. Vanilla had 47, I've opened 44 of them, there were 2 used as vanilla interiors and one that was so far underground that it would have needed a massive overhaul to open with new LOD so I didn't attempt it. 
 
This is my "End of the Year" update, I will be around for small patches but don't expect anything major until 2017. 
 
I did not get the Drunken Gnome Prize finished again! I wanted to but for reasons and personal frustrations it's still WIP. If you cheat into it do so at your own risk! I may try to finish it between Christmas and the New Year but, don't expect it. It is on the list of things to do but, I'm now going to take some time for myself and also Port what I can from this to PS4 first. 
 
The Drunken Gnomes and I wish you and yours a happy Holiday and a Drunken New Year!
