📋 About This Mod

A lightweight revision of certain loot tables to make the a game a little more difficult and adhere to a certain level of realism. The bulk of the mod consists of editing death-item level lists for most creatures in the game. In vanilla, nearly all creatures would have the chance to drop caps and junk items upon death. These have been removed entirely, so you can no longer earn caps directly from hunting and must sell the resources of the creatures you kill. This also aids in the game playing more like a wasteland survival setting, as killing 'boss' creatures doesn't yield weapons or armors. Creatures will only drop what they would naturally be found with. In addition to death-item level list alterations, select container level lists have been edited with the same logic. For example, caps have been removed from pre-war mailboxes.

Likely conflicts with other level-list overhauls such as Capped Out. Simply load this below them so this mods changes overwrite them.

Install with a mod manager such as Mod Organizer 2 and activate. Alternatively, drag and drop the files in your 'Data' folder and activate with the mod manager of your choice if required.
