DESCRIPTION
This mod adds a new experimental weapon to the game that can revert the F. E. V. process, turning super mutants into humans again. This weapon can be obtained from an old scientist named doctor Bolonov in Rivet City. This weapon uses retrovirus cells. Doctor Bolonov will sell you retrovirus cells every time you run out of them. If you kill him, you wont get more ammo. This weapon can be repaired with plasma pistols.
NOTES (with version 1. 03 changelog)
-This weapon affects all supermutants including overlords. It may affects supermutants added by other mods too.
-This weapon doesn't affect Behemots, Fawkes and Uncle Leo.
-Dead super mutants are not affected.
-Reverted humans, after recover themselves of their shocking transformation, will fight by your side till the combat ends (though they are not very brave). When combat ends they will flee and you'll never see them again.
- The level, HP and weapons of the reverted humans depends on the level, HP and weapons of the targeted super mutant.
-This weapon uses retrovirus cells. Dr Bolonov will sell you retrovirus cells. Retrovirus cells are very expensive.
-You'll win karma any time you turn a supermutant into a human.

BUGS, ERRORS AND COMPATIBILITY
I've tested the mod several times and so far I've found no errors or bugs. But I dont have installed mods that make potential changes to the gameplay. I suppose that any mod related to supermutants could cause incompatibility or bugs.
To Bethesda for creating Fallout 3 and the GECK
To the Nexus community for feeding and inspiration
I hope you enjoy the mod.
