REQUIREMENTS

[Hard req] The original mod - obviously!
[Hard req*] Pip-Boy Selection Menu - to be able to equip it (select any version including support for Pip-Boy 2000, in the optional files).


INSTALATION

Recommended to install via Mod Manager.

  • Make sure you have BOTH mod requirements.
  • Install original mod.
  • Install this patch. Make sure to let this patch overwrite original mod files (just overrides the replacer scriptrunner).
Pip-Boy Selection Menu should be loaded AFTER this patch.


HOW

Two files in this patch:

  • A blank scriptrunner text file, to override the replacer of the original mod.
  • An .esp for location and the functionality*.

*This mod doesn't add the actual Pip-Boy item to the container for the player to pick up, as that would need the Pip-Boy itself to be what the engine considers as "playable". Player is able to take "playable" items from containers, but also to equip or unequip them. A playable Pip-Boy would mean the Player could unequip the Pip-Boy from the apparel menu, which renders the player without interface.

Instead of that, this mod adds an impostor item called Pip-Boy 2000, which adds the true Pip-Boy 2000 when added to player inventory, and then dissapears. This way, the Pip-Boy 2000 stays non-playable. It will be in the inventory, but will NOT appear in the menu.

This renders the only way to equip the Pip-Boy through scripting. That's how Mick and Ralphs can switch you between 3000 and 3 Billion Pip-Boys. Pip-Boy Selection Menu, however, uses scripts to let you equip any supported Pip-Boy anytime. Because of this, is a hard requirement.


CREDITS
All credits go to DarthFANt0M. This is just a standalone patch. It could not be easier to do!


DISCLAIMER

The requirement of Pip-Boy Selection Menu circumvents the problem of the pip-boy being the apparel equipping main menu. However, if you really need that .esp slot, ask me in comments and I could eventually post a version which doesn't need the Selection Menu mod, but with the unequipping problem. Just lemme know!

Also, you could suggest more locations
