📋 About This Mod
This mod reduces the time you have to endure MoleRat Disease from 99 years to 1 minute. This mod also makes a Vault 81 Cure available to craft on the Chem Workbench as long as you've already contracted the disease and completed the relevant mission (won't spoil..)
This Fallout 4 mod shortens the duration of the Molerat Disease contracted in Vault 81 and lets you craft a cure if you already have it. It's a small gameplay tweak for players who want to remove the permanent debuff without console commands.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 505 endorsements and nearly 10k downloads.
- Solves a common annoyance without needing console commands.
- Simple, focused fix that doesn't overhaul other systems.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may not be compatible with newer Fallout 4 patches or DLC.
- Only addresses the Molerat Disease—no other gameplay changes.
- Potential conflicts with mods that alter Vault 81 quests or diseases.
For Fallout 4 players who hate the permanent -10 HP from the Molerat Disease and want a lore-friendly cure. Also for those who prefer crafting over console commands. Skip if you're fine with the debuff or use mods that already change diseases.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're on PC, you can install manually by dropping the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager like Vortex makes uninstalling easier.
- Make sure you have the disease before crafting the cure—the recipe might not appear otherwise.
- Check if your other mods alter Vault 81 or diseases to avoid conflicts.
