To provide the utmost hardcore experience for myself (and others with the release of this mod), I've always had the "1 in all stats" challenge run in mind. My only pet peeve was the constant amount of console commands others would do to achieve this or the use of stat-raising items/perks/implants. With this mod, that completely changes.

Changes:
- Set all Skills to -9999 (shows as 0) and starting SPECIAL points to 1
- Completely skip the vigor tester, no SPECIAL points to allocate
- Tag skill bonus is 0
- Can't select Traits (use Stewie Tweaks' "Free Wild Wasteland" Tweak to get WW)
- No perks from levelling up, perks obtained from challenges and other means however are kept
- Levelling up provides skill points and Skills are seen increasing, but it's all visual, as a stat returns to 0 immediately once past the level up screen.
- Health is no longer increased on level up
- Skill Books and Magazines are completely useless
- Completely removed the game's ability to raise or increase Skills or SPECIALs from Perks and Items alike, other things like DT/DR, Resistances, etc. are kept
- Kept the text mentioning an item raises a stat, just to taunt the player
- Finishing Lonesome Road no longer provides a SPECIAL point

Note:
Because levelling up is kept, everything else around the player will level up accordingly as usual: enemies will get tougher, vendors will have better gear to sell, etc. Compared to the player, NPCs keep every benefit from a higher level, like for example: increased health.
Tip:
Because DT/DR, Resistances, other effects, etc. are still present in items and perks, you will have to rely on them a lot more to survive.

Recommended experience:
Very Hard,
Hardcore (bonus if mods that increase the difficulty are added),
Hit's Anims S1-S3 and Cowboy additions (even slower reloads with 1 Agility),
attempt at max quests,
all DLCs completed,
"Agility affects Weapon Reload Jam Speed" Tweak,
"Clip Size Matters" Tweak,
"Manual Reload Tweak": No reload on ammo pick up, No firing animation with empty clip, Automatic weapons play empty clip sound;
No companions,
No VATS
No major exploits or glitches (Reload dashing, Item Duplication, Quicksave/quickload clipping through walls)

Installation:
Either manually or through your preferred mod manager. Put at the bottom of the load order (although above every other "bottom of the load order" mods like Desert Natural Weathers (DNW) for example).
