📋 About This Mod
While m150's Institute Power Armor is excellence, but how he put the armor is not immersive. Therefore I took liberty to put the armor inside the Institute, in a dedicated power armor frame. It is located in Institute Advanced System.
This mod contains only ESP, therefore you need the original mod. Install it with NMM or other Mod Manager and overwrite the original ESP.
There are two version of this mod, and use only one.
1. Contains only I-01.
2. Contains I-01 and X-01 with Institute paint-job, located in a storage, inside Father's room.
