📋 About This Mod
Summary
Restores the Armored Vault 21 Jumpsuit to the game, by adding a mounted version of the armor to the Vault 21 Gift Shop, that can be purchased or stolen from Sarah, similar to how it was found in Fallout 3.
This is the best way to restore this item in my opinion, considering that the Mounted scripts for the Vault Jumpsuit were updated and included in New Vegas, and the armor was placed in the Vault 21 Gift Shop in the JSawyer mod (although it was implemented improperly).
Requirements & Compatibility
- This does not edit any vanilla data, and only adds 1 new item to the world. This mod uses its own mounted item and script that are identical to the Fallout 3 version, in order to maintain compatibility with Tale of Two Wastelands
