About this mod
Automatically replaces Beantown Interiors Project's more immersion breaking collectables, powered by Base Object Swapper
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
The Beantown Interiors Project is a mod that needs no introduction, being one of the most well-known attempts at fleshing out the Commonwealth.
Unfortunately, despite all of the effort put into it, both of its major collectathon-type activities are, in my subjective opinion, about on par with a bad Fallout 2 throwaway joke.
This mod consists of 3 components:
-a light-flagged .esp that disables the mod's new loading screens, modifies a relevant leveled list to remove magazines from it, and renames the G.I. Joe series of valuables to Power Armor Action Figure to attempt to maintain some degree of coherence
-a Base Object Swapper _SWAP.ini that dynamically replaces most of the mod's placed magazines with the base game's trio of burned magazines, with a 25% chance of any of the non-junk magazines to be replaced with an Overdue Book.
-a Base Object Swapper _SWAP.ini that dynamically replaces every* Drunk Gnome with one of Far Harbor's garden gnomes, as well as swaps the note connected with the quest into a burned magazine
Theoretically compatible with any possible combination of Beantown Interiors and any of its bugfixes, previs or optimization patches, and/or integrations, with a few notes:
WhiskyTangoFox's Disabled Mags is soft redundant due to trying to accomplish the same task
Lively's Typo Fixes and Gnome Removal is similarly soft redundant, again due to trying to accomplish the same task
Should work out of the box with both the original Beantown Interiors and pra's True Interiors Patch, as well as with any other patch to Beantown Interiors
The Mad Bomber and Nuka Cola magazines were also disabled, but if you want them you can open the Magazines_SWAP.ini in any text editor and either comment them out with a ; or simply delete them. This is recommended to be done before starting a game, as I'm unsure if removing an item from a _SWAP.ini restores them.
Mid-game installation should be safe, but obviously any magazines or gnomes still in the world will swapped.
*there may still be unaffected gnomes, but i'm pretty sure i caught all of them; let me know if i missed one
