"Moo! Moo, I say!" ################################### #### Brahmin Variant Redux - Fallout 3 ################################### Filename: lexx_brahmin_variant-Fo3.esp (Main File)
## Version 2. 5 ## Description This mod is a remake of my old Brahmin Variant mod, released about 5 years ago (holy shit!) for Fallout: New Vegas. It visually expands the range of brahmin in the game: You will now be able to find healthy brahmin as well as sick brahmin. Additionally, the brahmin randomly spawn with either horns on every head, horns on only one head or no horns at all. This mod also adds brahmin calf-variants to the game.
You can find & download the original Fallout: New Vegas release over here at the New Vegas Nexus.
That's it, pretty much.
Thanks for reading, thanks for playing and thanks for your (hopefully) coming feedback.
