📋 About This Mod

IN THE FLESH - A HORROR QUEST MOD

MADNESS UNLEASHED

The second mod in the Antagonist quest mod series.

Venture into a secret Institute facility and face the evil that dwells within.

A macabre mixture drawing inspiration from Lovecraft, Resident Evil, Dead Space and who knows what else.

How to start?

Just north of the Dunwich Borers pit is a grate embedded in the rock (see images for further guidance)

What should I expect?

Scares (hopefully) - Horror is different for everyone, but I hope that you feel at least a little unnerved or jumpy.

But if you want to revel in atmosphere, a few things:

- Don't use the pipboy light (or at least, find a low powered torch style mod for it).

- Leave you companions outside.

- Ramp up the music.

Custom monsters

It's what I do. That said, this mod makes use of feral ghoul-like creatures, so any mods you have effecting ferals will effect them too.

These certainly aren't required, but a few examples include:

Zombie Walkers (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/20485)

Feral Ghoul Bite Skills (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/46097)

Horrorghouls soundpack (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/37419)

Also note - The enemies should level with the player, but it can still be challenging for lower level characters. In classic survival horror style, running away is always an option. And in some cases, the ONLY option.

Anything else?

- WARNING - One very short portion contains flashing lights which could tentatively be considered 'strobing'. If you suffer from sensitivity, please let me know and I will sort out a version without said lights. There is also a single reference to suicide. Fallout is a mature series for an adult audience dealing with mature themes.

- WARNING - My voice acting is still terrible.

Requirements?

Automatron, Far Harbour and Nuka World DLC.

All assets used are either vanilla or free use under CC.

Thanks to justreddz for their Hooded robe assets.
