📋 About This Mod

Name: Scavanger Armors Version: 1. 0 Date: July 7, 2010 Category: Armor Requirements: Fallout 3, Point Lookout, CALIBR, Archive Invalidation Author(s): tumbajamba (models, textures, concept), Sithrazer (GECK, implementation, scripting) Source: klick For all russians over here download the russian version: klick Description =========== Adds many BRAND NEW armors, CALIBR compatible weapons, backpacks and headgear to the game. They can be purchased from a new merchant not far from Rivet City. Location =========== Next to Anacostia Crossing Metro Station, near Rivet City. Details =========== The armors and weapons all have unique stats, effects, and names. ALL ITEMS ARE EQUIPABLE BY BOTH MALES AND FEMALES, however most of the armors have a new or unique appearance for males only. There are several new female armor appearances, while other armors re-use vanilla FO3 armor and clothing appearances. Most of the weapons utilize CALIBR ammunition. This means you MUST have CALIBR installed in order to run this mod. The merchant in this mod will sell only the CALIBR ammunition that is required by the weapons added by this mod. The merchant is the only place CALIBR ammunition has been added to the game by this mod. Most items have a repair list and have been added to repair lists. The weapon repair lists are based off the weapon type used to create the new weapons, the same goes for armors, for the most part. This means there may be a few repair matchings that seem out of place, but hopefully will mostly make good sense. Because of some of the textures used by this mod, it requires Point Lookout. Apologies to those of you who do not have the DLCs. USE ARCHIVE INVALIDATION OR YOU WILL SUFFER TEXTURE ISSUES! (as well as hate from the authors when you complain) You can use ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated Or the \'Toggle Invalidation\' button in FOMM (if it says \'remove archive invalidation\' select \'no\', it means invalidation has already been set). If you fail to use archive invalidation and leave comments about strange textures or downrate the mod because of them, I (Sithrazer) will heckle you. We only want to know about any texture issues if you used archive invalidation and continue to get texture issues. Install =========== Make sure you have Fallout 3 and Point Lookout DLC installed. Go get and install CALIBR: Go get ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated! FOMM install 1. Extract SShop. 7z to a location of your choice 2. Launch FOMM 3. Open the FOMM Package Manager 4. Choose \"Create from folder\" 5. Navigate to where you extracted SShop. 7z and select the folder and hit \"OK\" 6. OK any copy/overwrite notices FOMM presents 7. Select SShop from the package list and click the \'Activate\' button. 8. OK any overwrite notices FOMM presents. 9. Exit package manager and verify your load order. 10. If you\'ve never done so before, run ArchiveInvalidation I
