📋 About This Mod
(quote from the creator of the original mod Dung_Beetle) \"Start the game faster right outside Vault 101. You start with a meager amount of supplies that you would likely have gotten if you actually completed the tutorial.\" This mod requires \'A Tale of Two Wastelands\' to work. The original Fallout 3 mod is here on the Nexus: url=http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/1494 (Mild spoiler) See attached ReadMe for summary of equipment. This is my very first stab at modding/conversions, so sorry for any errors/omissions. Enjoy! mjt960
