1. Introduction:
----------------
As a kid, I once visited Arlington Home with my father while he
was in D.C. for a buisness trip. I remember being moved by the
beauty of the grounds and of the house itself. So it came as a
bit of a disheartening shock to see such a historic landmark's
portrayal in FO3 as just a generic track home cluttered with
modern appliances.


The Arlington Home Restoration Project is my meager attempt to
rectify what, I thought, was a glaring oversight on Bethesda's
part. An attempt to bring FO3's Arlington Home more closely in
line with the real Arlington Home - both on the interior and the
exterior. This is NOT a player-home mod, and does not have many
of the convieniences you'd expect from such. However, if you do
wish to use it as a player home, all of the containers should be
safe and the interior is marked as player-owned. The raiders
will respawn, however. I may make it convertable to a
player home in later revisions if there is enough interest in it.

With that said, thank you for downloading this mod, and I hope
you have as much fun using it as I had in making it.

2. Requirements
----------------
Fallout 3 and Point Lookout.

3. Installation.
----------------
Simply unzip the archive to your Fallout 3 Data folder and merge
folders when prompted. Then activate "ArlingtonRestoration.esp"
in your load order via FOMM.

If you are updating from earlier versions, it's important that
you preform a clean save - as the interior has undergone
substantial revisioning and you may experience placement glitches.
To do this, simply deactivate the ArlingtonRestoration.esp in
your load order, start your game wait a few moments, then save
your game again. Exit your game and reactivate the
ArlingtonRestoration.esp file in your load order.

4. Known Issues & Incompatibilities
-----------------------------------
This mod will be incompatible with any mod that makes changes to
Arlington Origin or the original Arlington House interior. There
are quite a few enemy spawns inside, so if you have any mods
which increase enemy spawns or damage, you may want to turn
them down/off or otherwise be extremely cautious.

I believe I have fixed the majority (if not all) of the collision
geometry errors from the previous versions, and I also set up
room markers and portals to optimize preformance. You may still
get some slowdown in a few areas where your line-of-sight crosses
all three room-markers, but overall it should preform much better.

5. Thanks/Credits:
------------------

these years later.
