Pre-war Cybernetics come to the commonwealth wasteland. This mod adds the Cybernetics Lab Workbench, and several pieces of armor (and a pair of RoboHand-gloves), each with a significant amount of customization including vanilla lining mods, special Gadget mods, advanced Frame mods, cybernetic implants, firmware upgrades, and 20+ paint/pattern options. The main pieces have light/medium/heavy variations, and the 'RoboHand' gloves can be modded to be exclusive to either the left/right hand. Most items are worn as armor and generally will fit with vanilla outfits (RoboGloves cant be worn with some vanilla 'gloved' outfits)
A note on Bodyscales:
The vanilla game uses a funky system to scale over-armor to fit cleanly over under-clothing, this system works alright for the relatively small armors of the vanilla game, but for the Cyber armatures it can be a little aggressive. You might notice while wearing certain under-clothes (army fatigues) you will get massive scaling on Cyber Armatures. There's no way to avoid this without editing vanilla items. My best advice is to stick to thin under-clothes like Vault suits, harnesses, and BoS uniforms. Additionally you can scale down your characters weight to average/skinny to offset most strange scaling. The first-person models Have been specially made to not clip over the pipboy at any size. You will need another mod if you wish to hide the
pipboy in 3rd person, this mod will not do that for you.
CBBE Bodyslide files are included for female versions, these may help with clipping, but are not necessary.
Screenshot auto-approve is turned on, I'm sure most of you can take better screenshots than my potato computer can!
There is a Palette guide in the screenshots that can help you find the color you want.
All of the main items of this mod are made at the Cyber Crafting Bench. Once made they can be customized at an armor bench, paint/palette swaps cost nothing, some of the more advanced mods and armors have long parts lists, so remember to scroll the component list!
