📋 About This Mod
Annoyed by the limited and copy-pasted magazine racks with exactly the same magazines in the same order every time? Well, then this mod is for you!
What does this do?
-
[]Expands the number of magazines by about 8x the vanilla game.
[
]Randomizes the distribution of magazines so that they are more evenly distributed.How does this mod compare to similar frameworks?
-
[]Better performance - This is not a script mod, so it is lighter on your CPU. It does not require a script processing thousands of nodes as they are streamed in (there are well over a million nodes in the game).
[
]Vanilla behavior - Assets are persistent just like vanilla.[]Better compatibility with apartment mods - Allows for easy exceptions with no
processing overhead for areas such as your player-customized apartments.
A graphics mod is required to experience more than just the randomizer. I currently do not have my own graphics mod for this. Check requirements to see a list of compatible 8x graphics mods.
If you like this mod, you might want to check out my similar framework for vending machines: 4x Vending Machine Framework
And for posters: 4x Poster Framework or 8x Poster Framework
Features transforms buffer optimizations.
If you want to mix graphics mods together, then combine graphics mods with load order priority. For example, if you want to mix a 4x and 8x mod together:
[4x graphics mod] > >
Or let's say you want one of the standard replacer poster mods to mix in with a 8x mod:
[small standard replacer mod] > >
Combining them all:
[small standard replacer mod] > > >
Framework should always be lowest priority.
How you change load priority depends on how you install mods (manual is done by ascii order file names, mod manager has a GUI to customize load order).
