Shattered Space Update
New optional file that makes the same adjustments for new Shattered Space weapons. Space suits appear to use the same tier attachments as vanilla, so no changes needed there. No new weapons were missing tiers, so no Plus version needed.
Remember that this is not retroactive and will not work for weapons that the game has already generated.
See Articles for a guide to patching other weapons.
The Mod
Makes so equipment spawns in only one quality level, whatever its highest available tier is. For most armor
this is Superior, for most weapons this means Advanced.
Make a clean save before switching from the xedit version.
Features
--Weapons only spawn with their highest level damage values (including melee weapons).
--Space Suits, Backpacks, and Helmets only spawn with their highest protection values (For Physical, Energy, and EM).
--Maintains the vanilla numbers for all equipment, other than two Crimson Fleet armor sets, which got a very slight boost (for some reason these two sets use their own quality attachments for tiers 2-5, which are only 5 points lower than the generic ones).
--Quality level names are hidden/removed, as they no longer serve a purpose.
--All weapons and space suit pieces use their base value (plus modifiers from other upgrades). This should help with the economy to some degree.
No More Tiers Plus
--Alternate version that boosts weapons that had missing or no tiers, along with the base changes.
--The Eon, Equinox, Rattler, and Sidestar use Advanced Tier bonus numbers from Advanced Weapon Tiers. This puts all the low caliber pistols and the Solstice within around 10 points of each other.
This file makes the following changes by applying a bonus to each weapon's hidden Standard Receiver attachment:
Arc Welder: 16 damage to 40
Auto-Rivet: 100 damage to 250
Cutter: 4 damage to 24 (Not sure on this one. Most weapons get a multiplier of
somewhere between 2x and 3x, with 2.8 being the average, but I boosted
the Cutter extra (x6) due to the very low starting damage combined with
limited range)
Novablast: 100 damage to 200 (The Novablast is EM damage only. Just bumped it so you have a better change of knocking
people out in one shot when charged.)
Notes
-Works best in a new game, or when starting a new round of NG+, as already spawned gear does not benefit.
-This will make the game harder, but still perfectly playable. Use the player and enemy damage options to adjust as necessary.
- I recommend using this with Better Explosives if you want your grenades and mines to also be 'advanced'. Load after No More Tiers.
Why remake this mod instead of updating?
The current version of XEdit is unable to take this mod any further. There is a certain type of data attached to several weapons (primarily the melee ones) that made so I can't edit them, and I was unable to open my XEdit master in the Creation Kit. The Creation Kit is also my tool of choice since I've been using some version of it since Morrowind. I also wanted to experiment with alternate ways of achieving the goal, and the "Plus" version is now structured differently from the original optional files. It will also be easier for me to update for any future additions.
Compatibility
ONLY EDITS OBJECT MODIFICATIONS
This mod makes no changes directly to weapon or armor entries.
-Compatibility is high because no weapons and armor are edited directly, only the behind-the-scenes attachments that are used to make the tiers. Most mods that would not be compatible are ones that you probably wouldn't use with this anyway.
Known issues
-Due to how the armor quality attachments work you will get space suits that appear identical, but cannot stack.
-The Bridger and Negotiator still have the "Advanced" tag. This was necessary because the damage of the explosion from these weapons seems to be tied to the Advanced keyword in some way.
-I cannot currently include the Plasma Cutter from the recent update. This is a CK issue and I'll include it as soon as I am able.
Please let me know if you discover any additional problems.
XBox
For now XBox gets only the Plus version. I figure this is what most people will want and I don't like managing files on Bethesda's site.
