📋 About This Mod

This is AEW - An Expanded Wasteland!

A Tale of Two Wastelands-Based Content Enhancement mod, featuring new weapons, armor, enemies and perks, all seamlessly integreated into the game world, as well as a plethora of gameplay tweaks and changes, for the optimal gameplay experience! This mod requires TTW ,JIP LN NVSE and KNVSE.

Everything introduced aims to be wholly Lore-Friendly, with a specific emphasis on including content from games both before and after 3/New Vegas into this game. I was particularly inspired by the perks and traits of the classic Fallouts, and intend to find ways to bring even more classic perks/traits into this mod in future updates.

The following is a list of everything this mod does (so far!). A large number of the assets used for the new items and creatures are taken from modders resources or mods with open permissions. I reached out to the appropriate mod authors to gain appropriate permissions for those that come from mods that are not resources or open use. The links will be provided with each item - full credit for the assets naturally goes to the original creators - thank you for contributing to this mod! If any creators of the resources used are unhappy with their resources inclusion in this mod for any reason, I urge you to get in contact with me and I shall remove your items from the mod as soon as I can.

Many weapons and armors featured have brand new icons created by me, all non-unique weapons and armors are scattered around the Wasteland using Leveled List Integration in a non-intrusive way, minimizing mod conflicts. The new icons I created were created using resources from Consistent Pip-Boy Icons, and thus that mod is a soft requirement if you want the icons to display correctly.

The armors in this mod use Breeze's Male Bodies as a base (some patches for Breeze's in this mod were made by me and are admittedly a little shoddy) - however if this is not to your taste, there is an optional file for Vanilla bodies instead.

New Weapons

Perpetua - A Recharger Gatling Laser. This weapon is extremely powerful and thus rather difficult to obtain, you must destroy the Brotherhood during the final quest of Broken Steel, and it can be found in the weapons vault that is made available once the citadel has been destroyed.

HK L30 Gating Laser is a Gatling Laser variant based on the Gatling Laser from Fallout 1. One can be found in the BoS Safehouse, and many more can be found being sold by the Brotherhood Quartermasters or being wielded by Brotherhood or Enclave soldiers.
