**************************************************************
This mod allows you to bottle water from all water sources
without an annoying menu. When you use a water source while
sneaking you automatically fill all empty water bottles. Empty
water bottles are automatically attained when drinking dirty or
purified water.
The water bottled is either dirty or purified. You gain dirty
from any water with rads and purified from any water without
rads. By having only these two types this is completely
compatible with mods that purify dirty water.
If you need extra empty water bottles they can be purchased
from Rivet City Supply and Boutique Le Chic in quantities of
100. Empty water bottles have a weight of 0. 1 because they're
empty and a price of 1 cap which is same as soda bottles.
This mod also changes Dirty and Purified water to give more of
an effect so you don't need to drink a bathtub full to heal
yourself. Having the Food Sanitizer increases the healing
Dirty Water
+10 HP With Sanitizer
Purified Water
+30 HP With Sanitizer
Q: Why not allow all bottle types?
A: Because it's unnecessary. Really think about it you need at
most 20 bottles. Once you have them what are you gonna do with
all the thousands of extras? Besides this way it stops the
bizarre model morphing that occurs. How does that soda bottle
turn into a tiny plastic water bottle?
Q: What water sources are included?
A: ALL, that means lakes, puddles, sinks, water fountains,
fire hydrants, toilets and even urinals. If it's got water you
can bottle it.
Q: Why can i only do it while i'm sneaking?
A: Because i HATE having things interfering with otherwise
quick to use actions. I hated all other water mods because
they filled bottles 1 at a time or added an annoying menu
when i tried to take a drink.
inventory and remove it when you drop the last one. If you
want to uninstall this mod remove all empty water bottles from
your inventory before doing so to prevent a CTD.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Saves time and frustration by skipping the menu when bottling water.
- Auto-filling all empty bottles at once is a huge QoL improvement for survival runs.
- Community-approved with 309 endorsements and over 5,600 downloads.
⚠️ Cons
- Old mod (last updated in 2009) – may have compatibility issues with modern mods or the GOG version.
- Only affects water bottling – if you're looking for broader survival changes, this won't help.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter water sources or the bottling mechanic.
For Fallout 3 players who are tired of the clunky water bottling menu and want a quick, no-frills fix. If you're a survivalist who constantly collects water, this is a must-have. Skip if you want more comprehensive survival overhauls – this is a single-purpose tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to sneak when near a water source to trigger the auto-fill – it won't work if you're standing.
- If you're using a mod manager, install this as a simple ESP – no FOSE or extra patches needed.
- Test it early in your playthrough to ensure it doesn't conflict with other water mods you have.
