Description
===========
This simple .esp creates two additional armor IDs for the Operation: Anchorage DLC. One consists of a helm-less Chinese Stealth Suit, while the other is a headgear item for the helm itself. The Dragoon Armor and Dragoon Helm, respectively!
1. 0 Changes
- Now replaces original Chinese Stealth Suit's location (item ID still there, FYI)
- New (No Stealth) version
- Changed Dragoon Helm to Dragoon Helmet
Inside the sealed room, where the regular suit of armor is. The body armor and helmet are on the shelf right next to it. Check the screens for a closer look. Please rate, comment, and enjoy!
Alternatively, use the following codes with the console (XX represents the Mod Index number, found next to the File category in FOMM):
Dragoon Suit XX00102A
Dragoon Suit (No Stealth) XX0030D0
Dragoon Helm XX00102B
- I didn't really like being forced to use the helmet to use the suit's effects. This modification may be something directed toward personal use, but I figured some of you would like the options as well.
- The .esm already comes with a standalone helmet item, but I made an additional one to avoid any conflicts and maintain consistency with the names of the armor added.
- The location of some of the screenshots is in a player home I'm building. Its in a development studio centered around a game I worked on.
1. Copy the .esp file to (install folder)\Fallout 3\Data\
2. Start the Launcher, click 'Data Files', place a checkmark beside the .esp file(s).
1. Delete the .esp file
Troubleshooting
===============
You may need to relocate the DLC's files from their hidden Xlive directories to your Data directory for everything to work properly. You can find the files in the following locations, depending on your operating system.
If you're using Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\Your User Name\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Xlive\DLC
If you're using Windows Vista:
C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\XLive\DLC

⚠️ Cons
