=== UPDATE === Hello again everyone! I would consider this mod finished at this point. If support continues, I might add more in the future, but I am once again very busy and do not have much time for modding.
Thank you so much for sharing in The Overpass with me! Your support really means a lot and I appreciate everyone who used this file.
Cheers to all

This mod is a self-contained unmarked adventure/quest/player home (What this mod actually is is up for debate, but I consider it an "Note-centered adventure" Everyone has their own opinions though and what you make it out to be is entireley up to you!)
. It begins right when you load up your next game with a message like the one in the small description. It should be noted that while this mod is about an Overpass populated with people,There is a warning right before you enter the Overpass for the first time that all companions should be told to wait or be temporarily dismissed because they may (Until you complete the quest) become nothing but a distraction, and might ruin your experience.
This mod is in the catergory that shares the same ideas of Puce Moose. I love his note-quest mods and was inspired to make my own. Puzzles, locked doors, keys, a mystery and PLENTY of notes await you....
This mod has been in development for a long time now, and is something I am extremely proud of. I am now hoping to pass on all the things I have done here to you! If you like this, please consider leaving a comment and/or endorsing.
What this mod adds: New craftable Grenades Weapons with custom meshing and texturing A new Overpass near Arefu that can be used an epic playerhome after the quests are finished New Armors Custom sounds A sad story of murder And a new perk
The population isnt on the Overpass at this time.....
1st BEFORE anything else, Load Fallout 3 and make a clean save game. This allows you to revert back to this save
