************
INFO:
******************
The mod has been completely rewritten in the Creation Kit and now functions a bit differently than the previous versions, the injection of caps is now done through script thus avoiding editing any original records. The plugin is also compatible with all DLCs.
You are now able to choose the amount of caps carried by vendors and workshop vendors separately, this can now be done in-game using a holotape in your pip-boy without having to switch between .esp plugins. More info Below. NOTE! The amount of actual available caps a vendor has depends on your character setup (skills, perks, etc.)
You might need to wait/sleep for a day or two before the vendors inventory updates. Created with FO4Edit. Creation Kit. ************************************************************

INSTALL:
- ******************
ATTENTION! if you still have the older version of this mod installed (v1. 2) please uninstall it and make a save without it before installing the newer version. v1. 3 was completely rewritten in the Creation Kit and functions differently than 1. 2 so make sure to remove it before updating, to avoid bugged vendor caps amounts.
Recommended: I recommend you install the mod with the nexus mod manager, it will simplify the installation and removal of the mod greatly.
Manual: 1. Open the downloaded archive 2. Copy the "VendorCaps.esp" file into your "Fallout4/Data" folder 3. Activate the plugin. 4. Play

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 8,537 endorsements and 210k downloads — this is a proven mod.
- Holotape config means you can tweak vendor caps on the fly without restarting or messing with load order.
- DLC compatible out of the box, so no extra patches needed for Far Harbor or Nuka-World.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019 — might have issues with the latest Fallout 4 patches or next-gen update.
- Only affects caps, not other vendor inventory or barter prices — if you want a full economy overhaul, this is just a piece.
- No in-game menu (like MCM) — you have to use a holotape, which can be clunky if you're used to mod settings menus.
For Fallout 4 players who want to fine-tune how much money vendors have, especially if you're tired of vendors running out of caps when selling your loot. Also great for settlement builders who want to control workshop vendor economies. Skip if you're looking for a complete economy overhaul — this only adjusts caps.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the holotape in your inventory after installing — it's usually added automatically, but check your Misc tab.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid conflicts with other vendor mods.
- Test the settings on a save before committing — you can always revert by re-running the holotape.
