Description

MAG gives the Minutemen improved gear, retaining their vanilla looks and keeping compatibility in mind by making minimal edits.
Requires a new game to see the full effect. ESP flagged ESL.

Bulleted key points and overview of the mod:
  • Heavily inspired by vanilla's balance. Better gear is gradually more common at levels 7, 10, and 20.
  • Unlike many MM mods, the iconic laser musket stays for much of the game. There's a chance they'll use it until level 20+.
  • That said, I also gave them more weapon variety, instead of "Oops, all pipe weapons!" Save those for the raider scum.
  • They also keep their hats and uniforms. It's a good identifier to avoid friendly fire. I also just liked the cowboy hats.
  • All of this being done with minimal edits, and retaining Bethesda's intention of a rag tag citizen militia that grows alongside the General.

Further specifics:
  • Levels 1 through 6 will mostly have light armor and basic guns. Minimally modded rifles and pistols.
  • At around level 7 they'll have a chance to spawn with medium armor too, with both better and maybe modded guns.
  • At 10+ they'll potentially have heavier armor, even better guns, and even more mods on their guns.
  • At 20+ they'll have peaked, wearing a mix of some medium and mostly heavy armor, with well modded, high quality guns.

"But dat's not stronk enuff! GIBS ME MOAR DAKKA! YER MOD IS BAD!!1!"



Install & Uninstall

Install through the mod manager of your choice, or drop the plugin into your data folder.
Uninstall by deleting the entry in your mod manager, or deleting the plugin from the data folder.

Adding or removing this plugin requires a new save. Otherwise, the gear will stay as you last saw them for all Minutemen NPCs which you've met.


Compatibility

YES THIS WILL BE OBVIOUSLY INCOMPATIBLE WITH OTHER MINUTEMEN OVERHAULS!
DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT $100, DO NOT MIX BLEACH AND AMMONIA BASED CHEMICAL CLEANERS.


For users of Fallout Loot Overhaul 2016 Edition and/or 2017 (Patches) Edition, you will need to place MAG's plugin(s) under FLO's plugin.

Everything else is probably gonna be compatible, or at least simply have no effect on each other.

Oh. And yes, it's fully compatible with mods that add more settler and Minutemen faces. I touched their leveled gear but not their NPC records. :)
