Thank you again for dropping by and checking out this mod and be sure to check out the other bug-fixing collection mods I have linked here (for NVEC, YUP, and MM). They all do a great job in fixing Fallout New Vegas' issues, and in some cases enhances the game with additional features if you so choose, but make sure to use only one since they would most likely conflict with each other.

For any new visitors to this mod page, this mod is included within the New Vegas Enhanced Content (NVEC for short) mod which includes a plethora of fixes to Fallout New Vegas and optional gameplay changes. I personally use it as my all-in-one fix for the majority of Fallout New Vegas' issues and I suggest everyone check it out if they haven't already.

Thank you for taking a look at my mod and get back to playing Fallout New Vegas (or whatever game has your fancy at the moment)!

[Original Mod Description]

The in-game challenge, Demise of the Machines, is supposed to reward the player the Machine Head perk for every 50 robots killed/destroyed (totaling 3 ranks, like the one for animals and abominations).

Though as some people may have noticed, upon completing the challenge for the first time, they are rewarded with rank 2 of the perk instead of rank 1. This fix edits the script that removes one extra line that apparently gave the player an extra rank upon completion of the challenge (from what it looked like to me anyhow). Its script is now identical in function like those for killing animals/abominations which already appear to work just fine in the game.

I've simply tested this fix by finding a group of robots (Crashed Vertibird location) and killing them over and over again by using the resurrect console command. By repeating this method I was able to unlock each rank properly and complete the challenge. Note: this was tested on a character which had not completed the Demise of the Machines challenge even once, so I'm not sure if this fix will affect a character who has already earned a rank or two in this challenge. Comments are more than welcome on this matter.

To install this mod:

Download and unpack into the Data folder where Fallout New Vegas is installed. Activate through the game's launcher or through any other launcher that is used (like FOMM).

To uninstall this mod:

Simply remove/delete the .esp from the Data folder where Fallout New Vegas is installed.

Other notes:

This mod edits only the script for the in-game challenge Demise of the Machines and nothing else, so it should not conflict with anything. Although, to be on the safe side and to make sure it kicks in, I would recommend this .esp be loaded after any other mod which edits the game's core scripts.
