📋 About This Mod

Note on compatibility: AWKCR now has its own fixes for most of these issues. The compatibility patch in the FOMOD covers the few issues AWKCR doesn't fix, and is small enough that it will work with both AWKCR and Armorsmith Extended without the need for separate versions.

Tell me if the FOMOD doesn't work or the AWKCR patches don't work; this is my first time making a FOMOD and I'm not sure how to exhaustively test

AWKCR. It's fine as far as I can tell, though. I probably won't add the patches separately since the files list would become exponentially more cluttered.

Features:

Blythe Patch has been uploaded: All this does is change Blythe's lab coat (he's the random scientist in the Covenant compound). Since the female version

of the dirty lab coat looked clean, he was equipped with the clean version of the lab coat to go with the other scientist in the compound; as I've fixed the

female version, he now looks out of place. This fixes that.

The new material swap system works pretty well, but it looks like the developers forgot to actually apply some of the textures to the items. Specifically

items with a pre-war and post-war version.

In case I forget to translate for people who don't mod, if I talk about "world model" or "GO model" I'm talking about the model the item uses when on the

ground or when examined in the inventory.

-Gunner Guard Outfit world model (on-ground and inventory) uses the correct textures. This one doesn't actually have a material swap assigned (the

textures are directly assigned in the .nif file) so I had to put in a sort-of-custom mesh (duplicate of original) with the correct Gunner materials.

-Dirty Trench Coat now uses post-war textures on male characters (Vault-Tec Rep actually looks like he's supposed to now).

-Dirty Army Helmet now uses correct textures when dropped or viewed from inside inventory.

-Lab Coat uses correct textures on female characters.

-Lots of Vault Suit fixes:

  • []All of the clean vault suits actually use the correct Armor Addons now.

    []Female vault suits get their own material swaps, meaning the clean textures show up for female characters.

    []All the on-the-ground models (folded vault suits) use proper materials.

    []The trim texture doesn't look like it does much of anything but I swapped them anyway just in case.

    []All 1st Person (arm) models use proper textures.

    []These include Vault suits not actually in the game.

    -Vault-Tec Security Armor for Vault 111 (dirty and clean variants) uses V111 textures instead of V81 textures on ground and in preview.

    -Clean Vault-T
