📋 About This Mod
This mod makes it so that Nick Valentine, the Great Clockwork Dick, can finally put on something other than that damn coat. I mean, that coat is great and all, it is his trademark outfit, but there's no reason he should be completely limited to just it.
This mod makes several small changes to Nick, and one major change. The major change is that he can now wear everything that you can. The smaller changes being that he can now be customized, and will take the Gen2 Synth battle damage effect. You now have ultimate control over how Nick looks, and what gear he can use.
What This Mod Does:
- []Changes Nick Valentine's race, including giving him Gen2 battle damage effects. []Allows Nick Valentine to wear any outfit in the game! This is done by changing his race's entry. []Allows you to upgrade his coat and hat, and upgrade anything else you give him so he doesn't fall behind your other companions. []Gives Nick a decent revolver, aside from that crappy Pipe Revolver. It uses the same (NPC) ammo. If loading into a game where you already have Nick, simply take his gun and upgrade it with the . 44 Revolver parts. []Gives Nick a skeletal Gen2 body under the outfits that ends up looking pretty damn cool. (See screenshots.) []Allows you to fully customize how much or how little of Nick's body has skin over it. Simply craft the parts in the Chemistry station out of Plastic, and then equip them to him.
- []Change Nick's NPC entry. This means it will be compatible with other mods that change Nick's NPC entry directly. []Change Nick's Voice, appearance, or anything that you can see. He should look exactly the same when you first meet him. []Change his starting outfit. He will use a different version of the outfit (the one he gives to you), but it looks the same, and is simply the playable human version that anyone can use. []Change his skin or eyes. Some of the pictures may show different eyes and skins for Nick, showing that you -can- use these different retextures. []Most of the pictures show me using Improved Gen 2 Synths mod. If you want the same, go download it, and get the Nick Valentine patch.
