📋 About This Mod

This mod will always be free to use. (Unless the original author changes her mind; then I'm not sure what will happen to this.)

Simply a FWE-compatible version of bluebellfairy's Player Animations - Food and Drink mod.

This one preserves FWE stats of ingestibles and doesn't require you to use RI - Primary Needs separately. Additionally, it adds existing animations to the following foods and drinks that didn't have one otherwise:

  • []All Wondermeats []Brahmin Jerky []Grandpa's Brain Tonic []Cat Food []Clam Chowdah []Human Jerky []Molerat Jerky []Mutfruit Rotgut
  • Wasteland Moonshine
As of v1. 3 it also makes some minor changes to FWE cigarettes. The way the smoking animation worked conflicted with the animations in this mod and caused them to act erratically. I had to integrate the cigarettes to the system that this mod uses to play animations to fix those issues, but in the process I opened the door to new weirdnesses such as the smoke FX triggering out of sync with the animation. I then made v1. 4 to fix that, but since I had already touched cigarettes that much I took the liberty of also fixing other minor issues, and they actually ended up working better than in FWE. Yup, I know that was not the scope of this mod, but if you install it your cigarettes will work better than before lol. If you're not ok with that just let me know and I'll try to break them again for you. Breaking is easier than fixing, after all. >:)

All credit goes to bluebellfairy. Give her kudos :) she deserves them!
