Have you ever wished that there were more Valentine's Detective Agency cases for you to play through? Ever wished you could open your own business and run your own jobs? Ever wished there was more to life than to be the MM general, where every settlement needs your help? Or wished there were more options for a role-playing experience that was not related to the main story or the various factions within the base game, a way to play a mercenary out to earn a living? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you're definitely in the right place, because that's exactly what this mod allows you to do; to role play as a gunslinging mercenary out to make a cap, anyway you can. You can infinitely run 34+ different jobs with 125+ random outcomes, in near infinite locations. Plus, there is a player owned office space, a vertibird you can optionally access later, as well as a custom-made multi-follower system, where you can optionally recruit up to 3 teammates to travel with you.

That is Gun For Hire, in a nutshell.

But in all honesty, there is no such thing as a tl;dr when it comes to this mod, or any mod of it's size or complexity, not if you want to use it to it's full effect without issue. Please, RTM. Everything you need to know is written on this page for you. I have not only taken my personal time to craft the mod, but to also document it to my fullest ability. The least you can do is to take the time to read, at minimum, this description page, before using the mod or posting questions that are already answered here. Control-F is your friend! Please, use it!

Please remember to ENDORSE a this mod if you enjoy it. There are over a 2000 hours and 8 months of my personal time and effort put into it's construction and I do not ask for donations or any remuneration of any kind from you for that. All I do ask is that you help this mod to stay on the hot files via your endorsements and votes so that it doesn't get buried and lost in a sea of other people's works. Also, if you are in need of vocal talent for you own mods, be sure to scroll down to the credits section and reach out to any of the talented actors who brought this mod's characters to life, free of charge.
