📋 About This Mod
This mod and its assets are not affiliated with any Fallout: New Vegas recreation project.
"A Taste of Blues" is a content pack mod inspired by the Fallout: New Vegas Old World Blues DLC. Here, you will travel to the X-49 facility, discover the secrets therein, and find some familiar (and some new!) weapons, clothing, and items.
The quest, 'In La-La Land' will begin after you arrive in Sanctuary for the first time, and will show you where to go. If your character has already visited Sanctuary before installing, the quest should begin automatically.
This dungeon can be hard for lower level players, so it is recommended to be level 15 or higher (however, you can go there at any level).
Requirements:
Automatron DLC and F4SE.
