Even Better Mod Descriptions is an update/re-creation of Better Mod Descriptions by Takaru Minari.

*This mod was made with the latest game version using a game version before the creation club updates may result in crashes*

Whats Included?

-Full DLC support including an All in one for all DLC users (Nuka World, Automatron, Far Harbor) and separate Vanilla and DLC files for other users
-UFO4P fixes are included in all files (but does NOT require the UFO4P patch!).
-All descriptions for weapon mods, armor mods, power armor mods, robot mods, and special effects/legendary effects have been overhauled.
-The vague descriptions for Perks, Perk Magazines, and the Lockpick Bobblehead have been changed (See shoddy photos for examples)
-Sorted so that each value is in the same order everytime. 
-Some compressed terms which mostly eliminates the smaller text although not entirely.
-Descriptions are based off their standard parts to show the differences no extra BS
-Updated to newest game version fixing two records from the original BMD
-Fixes errors from the original mod
-Optional compatibility patches and replacer esps for various mods that will grow as I make them 

Sorry for the shoddy photos

Other Work By Me

Not a big fan of complex crafting systems? Want something more inline with vanilla? Check out my update to  Craftable Guns and Weapons 

Donations: If you like my mods or patches consider making a donation to...

Me personally: 

If you wish to support me in some way a Donation link is now live on my profile as well as premium. You can also add me here on steam and gift me anything you want message me for details
 
Wildlife Conservation:

We continue to use the earth without allowing its resources to grow back. Animal life is in a steady decline. More and more become extinct every year. Everything has its use in the cycle of life and each thing we lose brings us closer to death. This is my preferred option if you decide you want to donate but either way the support I receive will be used towards a similar goal in my community and of course more content created by me. Theres also other organizations out there of course if you know of any that need it more and don't forget to message me that you did or send a screenshot so I actually know if I made a difference however small!
