RIVER DEEP, MALDEN HIGH
This is a re-upload of my previous mod of the same name - now improved, cleaned with FO4Edit and with the missing files that caused CTD before. (Apologies to all who had this experience)
UPDATE 21/02/2021
Removed unintended edit that closed the molerat tunnel access to the Waterworks.
UPDATE 11/02/2021
'Fixes' file addresses some minor issues - load this instead of the other (I'll remove the original file shortly)
The BoS Power armour is now equipable
Patrick has been given back his child skin
The back door to the Water Works must now be unlocked from inside
The 'Adult content' tag has been removed - don't know where that came from!
QUESTS
The Great Book Hunt: A puzzle quest
Malden High: A climbing quest to collect optional clues for the others
Water Power: A fetch quest to restore power for the next quest
River Deep: A water puzzle to access a new dungeon
The Lost Boys: A quest to find a hidden vault and rescue the occupant
NEW
Mirror, Mirror: A quest to discover the secret of the mysterious serum
More loot, more enemies and a surprise glowing one. Increased combat difficulty.
Speciality mags to collect and unique items to craft.
A new jump-suit for the secret Vault-Tec Cryo-Vault
FOR BEST EXPERIENCE
* Turn on subtiltles - there is minimal dialogue but it is not voiced.
* Turn off the pip-boy light – there are some effects that get drowned out in bright light.
* Disable Loot Detector if you have it installed – it spoils some of the puzzles and scares.
* Explore everywhere; there are multiple ways to complete the quest journeys should you get stuck on one route.
** Leave only if you have finished exploring as the only way back in is through the bookshop.
* Read all notes and terminals. Books contain some of the quest clues and many are (meant to be) funny.
* The NPC’s are levelled and 99% melee, but a challenge at lower levels so equip appropriately.
Using console commands should be considered cheating - it defeats the object of some of the puzzles. Chems and PA are acceptable but not necessary.
PATRICK
Clear a safe path for Patrick, he is not essential nor protected and tends to get killed in stupid ways like taking on mole rats barehanded, throwing himself off buildings etc. Save often. I find it best to make him wait in a safe spot, scout the route and then bring him along.
Patrick belongs to a custom race; he uses stimpacks if you give them and you can dress him in armour and adult clothing. This is probably a good idea as he will be less likely to die. He is set unable to swim and will go into wait mode if you start swimming yourself.
Patrick’s quest is unfinished as it is intended as part of my larger quest. For the moment, getting him above ground will complete the quest. You may dump him in any settlement. Ultimately his destination will be Spectacle island – you may like to see if you can get him there.
OBSERVATION
I feel that there are too few quest mods and decided that I would make my own. The trouble with being new to modding is that you don't know what can be done nor what to search for in tutorials. I would like to thank Zorkaz and 1000101 for their constructive comments and assistance in improving this mod - any flaws that remain are certainly mine. On which note, if you wish to see more of this type of thing please post helpful suggestions so that my next effort might be better and if you like what you see, hit the endorse button.
