About this mod
Places books for the Big Guns skill in the Mojave Wasteland and DLC areas. For use with JIP LN's bEnableBigGunsSkill option.

- Permissions and credits
Though a few mods have already been made to reintegrate the cut Big Guns skill into New Vegas, I couldn't help feeling this one little piece of the puzzle was missing. With a total of eight skill books distributed throughout the world of FNV and its DLCs, Big Guns should feel that much closer to parity with the game's other skills. This mod is intended to help make the Big Guns skill feel like it was there all along, so the books have been hand-placed in as vanilla-esque a style as I could manage, rewarding players for keeping their eyes open in largely unassuming locations. For Old World Blues, this means a recipe has been added, requiring you to craft the skill book.
Note that all this mod does is place the skill books in the world; it won't be of any use without JIP LN with the Big Guns skill enabled (bEnableBigGunsSkill=1 in the ini). I also strongly recommend pairing this mod with your choice of Big Guns integration mod:
Big Guns Skill by miguick
Big Guns Framework by MildlyFootwear
S6S Big Guns Implementation by Sweet6Shooter
Locations
Four Big Guns skill books have been placed at thematically appropriate locations in the Mojave. Two more are in the Sierra Madre, another is in the Divide, and a recipe has been placed in Big Mountain. No skill books have been placed in Zion because that location doesn't contain any skill books normally, and its workbench crates only contain books for non-combat skills. A text file is included with the mod that provides a hint for each of the eight locations, as well as the exact locations.
Requirements
Dead Money
Old World Blues
Lonesome Road
Conflicts
I don't foresee any, but as always, it's possible that this mod will conflict with others that edit the same worldspaces.
