Love this mod! Having a place to crash and stash with crafting amenities in Goodsprings is so much better and much more convenient than the vanilla shack. No more crashing and campfire cooking at Goodsprings Source in that crappy trailer in that gecko infested area then having to fast travel back to Goodsprings just to reload or use the workbench. I have a bunch of mods and all DLC as well all of which give me a lot of items at the start of the game. So, having multiple storage options at the beginning of the game is perhaps the greatest feature of this mod as there was zero storage in the vanilla game until you reach Novac! Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Great idea with flawless execution! Looks (and smells) so much better without the bighorn in the house too! 5 smiley seal of 100% approval!!!!! I endorse and highly recommend this mod!!! PS: Only one suggestion for any potential update to this mod would be to restore the lone weapon repair kit and 2 scrap metal items anywhere in the vanilla shack. Picking up those few miscellaneous items was the only reason I went into Victor's shack before this mod so this is a minor consideration, not an issue. Thanks again. Love this mod!
You don't have to crash at the Source, just use Easy Pete's spare room. Easy Pete lives right across from the bar so it's extremely close to the fast-travel point. There's a decent sized spare bedroom he doesn't use - with double bed, wardrobe, foot-locker and a desk. All free and safe for the player to use. As is Pete's fridge. And you can just use the workbenches outside the general store across the street. I guess Easy Pete might take the odd food/drink item if you leave it in his fridge, but I haven't noticed - he has a simple routine of sitting outside the bar or going home to sleep. There should be a game dialogue line like "I've got a spare room I never use, and could use the company" or even a one-off charge/quest, but there isn't.
Good job on cleaning up the shack but I think using four of the same type of storage locker feels a bit visually dull, I would suggest using a more diverse choice of storage. Also it could use a desk and chair for all your business doings. I would really like to see this done up a bit more because vanilla shack definitely needs a tune up but you're on the right track.
Makes more sense to me having something this, Mr. House wants to "look after" you so why the hell do you have to fight your way to Novac or New Vegas to get a "decent night's sleep"?
Always great to have a few extra safe houses for the player dotted around the Wasteland too, using a few already (all in Goodsprings like this is though) but always wondered why Victor's got a shack, but never uses it... he ain't fooling anyone- thinking he's like the other residents in town
You've hit the nail on the head. That's why I made this. If there is anything you'd added or improved on i'd be happy to do it if we came to an agreement. Enjoy the mod.
