📋 About This Mod

Name: Firefly Ranch - Scary Quest Edition Version: 1. 3 Release Date: 10/01/2009 Last Update: 10/10/2009 Category: Buildings / Quests Author: Kodiak888 Well I reinstalled FO3 and have gotten back into the swing of modding. I have a half finished horror mod for NV, but am taking requests to fix bugs / alter this mod. No promises, but it never hurts to ask. Plus I might be able to use the ideas in the next mod. Release Thread Link: http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1044070 ** If you have invisible toilets, download the mesh quick fix! This mod has some problems with the Pipboy PDA Mod. If you use it, the quest may not work correctly. I\'ll look into the PDA scripts and see why they don\'t work with mine, but it might be best to use this mod with it disabled until then. Sorry. If you\'re having CTD or Navmesh issues, run fo3edit\'s master update function. It\'s a problem with vanilla fallout 3 and how it handles .esp files that alter navmesh and exterior cells - a link is at the bottom of this page ** To do this, 1. Download FO3Edit, a link is in the tools used section at the bottom of this page. 2. Make a copy the \"FO3Edit.exe\" 3. Rename it to \"FO3MasterUpdate.exe\" 4. Run the master update now, and whenever you alter your load list. 5. To restore the files, rename the .exe to \"FO3MasterRestore.exe\" 6. Learn how to use the fo3edit program effectively to nullify 99% of your crash problems ::: Short Description ::: =========================== This mod adds a player house a little ways outside of Germantown, across the river. It has many advanced features, but the house is not intended to be a god home for a level one player. There is a quest to earn it, designed to scare and test the player. It makes a great home for an experienced player that has graduated beyond their current megaton or tenpenny home and wants something the king (or queen) of the wasteland deserves. ::: Please help to make this better ::: ========================================= All comments and suggestions are very appreciated! It\'s nice to get feedback, just to know if you actually enjoy the mod or not. If you think there are ways for improvement, please let me know. Thank You to everyone who has left praise and endorsements! And an especially Huge Thank You to those of you who have voted for this for Mod of the Month, since I just realized that that\'s separate from Endorsements. I was shocked to see it on the list at all. Thank you. ::: Intro ::: =============== You\'re walking along through the wasteland, creating chaos and discord or sowing the seeds of hope throughout the land, when off in the distance you see a house that looks like it\'s got some good loot. You pick the lock to the outer gate and snoop around a bit. Everything is locked up tight, but there is a note on the table in the camper. It alludes to a valuable prize, and gives directions to th
