Midwestern Power Armor
The classic Midwestern Power Armor is now in the Commonwealth and needs to be retrieved!
wsUOjD3RnxQ
Quirks & Features
You will get the retrieval quest at level 50 and above.
The armor set is based on the human skeleton not the Power Armor one so you don't need a PA frame to use it.
You can also construct a special crate and BOS flags at your settlements.
There is an item you can construct and wear called the "Arm Mobilizer Unit" which piggybacks off of the clothing scaling system and it inflates the arms so they match the original tactics armor and concept. In 1st person view your sight might get blocked. Completely optional.
All armor pieces have to be worn to avoid invisible limbs.
After finishing the quest you can construct all armor pieces at the Chembench.
4K textures for the armor. 2K for the crate and 1K for the flags.
Crate and flags are contructed in the workshop menu under the Special tab.
All armor pieces can have mods and insulation applied to them.
Pipboy will clip if you don't use a Pipboy hiding mod.
And yes the crash site was also all setup my me :)
Yeah, that's pretty much it! It's pretty straight forward--new armor set addition. Feel free to ask any questions if you have any.
Adds the classic Midwestern Power Armor from Fallout Tactics to Fallout 4 with new models, textures, and a short retrieval quest. A well-received cosmetic and gameplay addition for fans of the classic game.
