Name: Addon Compendium for XFO Fallout 3 Balance Overhaul
Version: 0.1
Author: kris_h
Description
===========
There are many great mods out there but they are often incompatibile or don't fit togheter. The aim of this mod is to merge some of them, creating balanced content compatibile with XFO Fallout 3 Balance Overhaul. Why XFO? I find to be one of the best overhauls and use it myself ;-)
Everything in this addon has been configured with XFO version 0.82b in mind and will cause no compatibility issues with it. Thus it is required to install XFO Fallout Ballance Overhaul. Mod should work without problems with both standalone and modular versions.
If you don't know what XFO is, then look here: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=334
Content
===========
* New weapons
Six new weapons are added, two of them are unique ones. They are based on great community mods, see credits for list of their authors.
- Desert Eagle
- Desert Dragon (unique)
- Scoped Hunting Rifle
- .44 Magnum Revolver (without scope)
- Wattz 2000 Laser Rifle -> Deals slightly less damage than vanilla Laser Rifle, but much better accuracy.
- Wattz 3000 Laser Rifle (unique) -> Stronger and even more accurate than Wattz 2000.
Desert Eagle, Scoped Hunting Rifle, .44 Magnum and Wattz 2000 Laser Rifle have been added to the loot lists and should be available at vendors when you reach certain levels. You will also find them equipped by enemies. All entries have been leveled accordingly.
This mod tries not to interfere with other mods, so two unique weapons are added to vendor lists instead of being placed somewhere in the Wasteland. With XFO barter tweaks, it won't be easy to buy them.
Desert Dragon is available to buy at Flak & Shrapnel when you reach level 8.
Wattz 3000 Laser Rifle is available to buy at Flak & Shrapnel when you reach level 10.
* Other tweaks
Two great mods are also integrated into this addon:
- More Outcast Rewards, which It has been tweaked to use new content. Outcasts will happily buy Wattz 2000 rifles and you will be also able to get .50 Action Express ammo as a reward.
- Repair Rethought, with new content supported and compatibile with XFO.
New item Form IDs
=======
Remember to put the addon's number in loading order instead of 0X at the beginning of the item's Form ID. So, if this addon is second in loading order, you need to enter 0200BFA to add .50 Action Express ammo.
- .50 Action Express ammunition -> 0X00BFA
- Desert Eagle -> 0X001C00
- Desert Dragon -> 0X001C01
- Scoped Hunting Rifle -> 0X002FF8
- .44 Magnum Revolver -> 0X00513C
- Wattz 2000 Laser Rifle -> 0X00294F
- Wattz 3000 Laser Rifle -> 0X004A93
Install
=======
It is recommended to use Falluot Mod Manager. If you don't have it yet, be sure to get it.
1. Run addon_comp_for_xfo_0_1.exe from this .zip file. Choose your Fallout 3 Data folder if you haven't installed the game into default directory.
2. Start FOMM, place a checkmark beside the addon_compendium_for_XFO.esp file.
3. Make sure that addon_compendium_for_XFO.esp is loaded AFTER the XFO Fallout Balance Overhaul plugins.
Uninstall
=========
1. Run Uninstall_addon_comp_for_xfo_0_1.exe which should be in your Fallout 3\Data\ folder.
Incompatibility
===============
Standalone mods which have been integrated into this pack will cause problems, so be sure to uninstall or uncheck them in FOMM.
Other incompatibilities may be caused by:
- Mods changing FormList entries (eg. repair tweaks).
- Mods changing LaveledItem lists.
- Mods changing Enclave soldier templates (I had to modify them so Enclave may use Wattz 2000).
- Mods changing T-51b Power Armor entries.
Known Issues or Bugs
====================
None at the moment. Let me know if you find any bugs.
