__________________
:: INSTALLATION ::

Before installing this mod, make sure you have ALL the mod requirements installed first!
This is very important, you will break your game if you don't do this beforehand.

Do NOT install this mod for an already existing saved game, it is unlikely to be compatible!
Install the mod first, then start a new game for optimal performance. If you are updating the mod,
you should be safe to update for an existing save if you already have the mod installed for that save.
Please be aware that not all updates will be save compatible. If any aren't you will be alerted on
the mod page when the update is released.

Furthermore, by installing this mod and starting a new game, you are now fully committed to keeping the
mod active for that saved game at all times. Do NOT disable the mod if you plan on continuing a save that
has this mod already loaded! Any reports of bugs that have dismissed this advice, will in turn, be dismissed.

Now with that out of the way, let's begin.

If you have a mod manager, simply download this mod and install it with that like you would with
most other mods.

If you want to do a manual installation, follow the steps below:

- Download the mod from the files tab
- Unzip the SurvivalCore mod archive.
- Locate your Fallout: New Vegas directory.
- Copy & Paste all the folders and files from the mod archive, into the Data folder of Fallout: New Vegas.
- If you haven't yet done archive invalidation, do that before continuing.
- Play in Hardcore mode. Nothing bad will happen if you don't, but you won't get the mod's full functionality if you leave it disabled.
- Enjoy! Thanks for the playing with SurvivalCore!

____________________
:: UNINSTALLATION ::

Do NOT uninstall or disable this mod and then proceed to play a saved game that had this mod loaded.
You will almost certainly run into instability issues with that save!

If you have installed this with a mod manager, then uninstall it the way you would other mods.

If you are doing a manual uninstallation, then follow the steps below:

- Locate the 'SurvivalCore' folder in the Meshes, Textures, Sound, and Music folders. Once found, delete them.
- Go to your 'Config' folder, delete the SurvivalCore.ini located there.
- Go to your main Fallout: New Vegas directory, and delete anything beginning with 'SurvivalCore' there.
- Delete 'SurvivalCore.esm' from your Data folder.
- You have now fully uninstalled the mod.
