📋 About This Mod
An Evening With Mr. Manchester IMPORTANT: Make sure you are running the latest 1. 7 Fallout 3 Patch. You can check your version by going to Esc->Settings->Display while in the game. It should display your version in the lower left of the screen. If it does not display 1. 7. 0. 3 try to reinstall the patch. http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8216 GETTING RED BOXES/MISSING TEXTURES? You may wish to use the ArchiveInvalidationInvalidated tool http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=944 to enable new textures if you have not used mods before. GETTING CTD-on-save issues? You\'ll probably find a cure with the masterupdate mode of the excellent FO3edit program, designed to fix CTD-on-save errors (and mitigate conflicts between mods). UPDATE 1. 81 is now ready. The hint/walkthrough site is online and ready for your perusal: http://www.pucemoose.com/aewmm.htm 1. 80 (CHANGE LOG AT BOTTOM) August. 31. 2010 Ouch! While wandering the wastes, you trip over something. Angrily rubbing your stubbed toe, you bend down to examine the object that so rudely injured your toe. A package. Curious. ---- This mod expands upon and alludes to events that transpired during A Note Easily Missed. If you have not journeyed through that mod I humbly suggest that you do so (though it is by no means necessary) before delving into the adventures presented by An Evening With Mr. Manchester. ++ Installation ++ Extract all files in the zipped folder into your Fallout 3\\Data folder. The name of the .esp associated with this mod is \'HeirApparent.esp\' - make sure to place a check mark in that when launching Fallout 3 to activate the mod. ++Mod Information++ An Evening With Mr. Manchester leads the player on an adventure through the use of various notes, hints, and puzzles. If you do not care for reading notes, taking terminal quizzes, solving puzzles, or exploring for the sake of exploring then it is doubtful that this mod will appeal to you. Combat is kept to a minimum. That said, there are a few locations that may test your trigger finger as well as your brain. I do not use companions and thus have not tested companions in the new area. To avoid possible pathing issues it is recommended that you leave them at home during your time in Mr. Manchester\'s estate. ++ New Features ++ [] Three new interior adventuring areas [] New challenges include assembling information to activate a power grid, solving a painting-based puzzle, and deciphering the autobiography of an accordian repairman for clues. [] Many new textures & posters [] Several new craftable items via new schematics. These new items will not interfere with existing mods that change schematics due to a unique construction revealed over the course of this mod. [*] New we
