It also features:

*New areas on the ship, like Crew & Commander Quarters, Bar, New Hangars, Armoury, Infirmary... and many MANY new things.

*New Areas in the wasteland.

*A LOT of new NPC.

*Voices and lipsync.

*Populated ship

*Recruitable soldiers (followers, or cannon fodder if you want)

*A vast selection of new clothing and equipment.

*Other new items

*New Missions (4 for now)

More things will be added periodically.

POINT 1

If you don't use my sepparate "Mothership Zeta Improved Commander Quarters" mod, refer to point 2.

If you DO use my "Mothership Zeta Improved Commander Quarters" mod, BEFORE INSTALLING ANYTHING take everything out of your commanders
quarters, get out, save and disable the mod. Then refer to point 2.

This version is no longer compatible with that mod.

POINT 2

If this is your first time installing the mod, just proceed with a normal installation (See "First time Installation" below). If you are playing a prior version (v. 1.3 or posterior),
you'll have to TALK TO THE LEAD TECHNICIAN AND TELL HIM TO UPGRADE THE SHIP ONCE v 1.5 is Installed. As simple as that.

POINT 3

If you're upgrading from a version PRIOR to 1.3, you'll have to tell your first lieutenant to DISMANTLE THE LAND TELEPORT CAMP and then make a
CLEAN SAVE before updating.

If you're upgrading from v 1.3, no clean saves or special commands are needed to install the mod.



-----------------------
FIRST TIME INSTALLATION
-----------------------

You can ignore everything above this section if it is your first time installing this mod (Except for the requisites).

-First of all: since this mod goes over Official DLC, you'll have to locate the mothership zeta download from the Games for Windows Live folder and place

it into the fallout Data folder.- (Achievements wont be available. This is a standard procedure, necessary for a lot of mods.)

Once that is done:

1.-Just Unpack the files on your fallout3/data folder. If asked to overwrite, say "Yes".

2.-Activate "Mothership Crew.esm" from either the "data files" option of the game launcher or Fallout Mod Manager.

3.-Make sure the file is loaded on top, along with other .ESM files -before .esp files-, and AFTER Zeta.esm

4.-Done.

When you start the game and have finished the MZ questline, go to the command bridge and, to the right of the command chair, there is a console with a big button.

Press it and let the story begin!

-SHOULD work from the beginning of Mothership Zeta with no issues-


--------------
UNINSTALLATION
--------------

1.-Go to the Engine Core and talk to the Lead Technician.

2.-Ask him to "prepare the ship for mod uninstallation" and confirm it.

3.-Leave the ship and save.

4.-Deactivate the mod.

---------------------
WHAT'S NEW on v.1.56?
---------------------

v. 1.56 is basically a "tidy up" and polish install. It solves a few minor bugs and replaces ALL of Harkin's voice lines and

lipsync files for something decent.

It also adds a memorial to a great comedian.
