📋 About This Mod
Malt Shop Mayhem is hosted by a guy who thinks he is Vinny Barbarino from Welcome Back Kotter (television show from 1970's) He plays the best malt shop oldies and is an overall slacker who is too cool to deal with the common problems of the wasteland. Don't ask Vinny for help. He'll just say... "What... Where...." and then just play another song!
Special Features
Completely standalone radio station that plays in real-time! This station will not prematurely restart or stop playing. It continues to play while turned off just like a real world radio station! (pre-recorded of course)
Includes craftable custom-skinned radios to place and enjoy inside your custom built settlements!
Includes a craftable custom-skinned holotape which will allow in-game volume control! Adjust your station's volume to your liking!
NOTE: Holotapes can be crafted in the Chemistry Station under Utility.*Fixed the modified worldspace issue that caused Vertibird flight altitude info to disappear by using radio mods created with older versions of xEdit/FO4Edit.
