📋 About This Mod

GHOUL MANSION v3. 1 For those of you who don\'t want to explore/search for the entrance. This is the same as version 3 but has a map marker at the entrance so it is easier to find (it is shown on the map but you won\'t be able to fast travel to it until you discover it). GHOUL MANSION v3 This is the same as Ghoul Mansion v2 (and therefore includes everything) but in a new worldspace. This means you will not have to remove the game borders to get to it – instead there is a pipe in some rocks just north of Vault 92/Old Olney. There is one problem with this version (which is not my fault). A bug with the GECK means that companions can’t follow you into a new worldspace. I will update this version when the fix is released but for now take a look at this post - http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=925470&st=0 - for a temporary scripting fix or just don’t take a companion (I chose not to include the script change incase some of you use customized or new companions, plus I don’t trust myself to get it right). GHOUL MANSION v2 Includes: -Everything in Ghoul Mansion version 1 - A vault below the mansion complete with a story. - Vertibird in the mansion grounds which flies you to a desert island in the middle of the sea. Includes a home, bunker, large tree house and more. Beautiful and fun! - 3 new items: - Addiction Coat – Allows you to remove addictions by equipping the item but sacrifices some of your health. - Scuba Helmet – Allows you to breathe underwater. - Missile Launcher Quatro – A missile launcher which fires 4 missiles at once. -Improved terrain around the mansion (for realism). GHOUL MANSION v1 A fairly large mansion located north of Old Olney/Vault 92 (just off the map). It is filled with feral ghouls for a fun challenge and includes a story explaining why it is like this. The mansion can become a new home (with all the equipment - workbench etc) after it is cleared - don\'t worry about the left over corpses, they will disappear after 3 days away from the mansion. Challenging, fun and rewarding! It also has a few customized items (for fun): - Super Duper Sledge - A Super Sledge with slightly more damage, range and health with a knockback bonus. Good for whacking ghouls. - Feral Ghoul Coat - A coat that prevents Feral Ghouls from attacking you (the same as the Ghoul Mask). Added for the story and for those of you who didn\'t complete the Tenpenny Tower quest in the way you have to (trying not to spoil :P) to unlock it (like me). INSTALLATION: - Extract all the files included into the Data folder of your Fallout 3 folder. - Go to the Data Files in the Launcher and check the \"Ghoul Mansion\" option box. For Versions 1 and 2 only: You will also need to change \"bBorderRegionsEnabled=1\" to \"bBorderRegionsEnabled=0\" in the Fallout .ini file in order to get past the normal map border.
