📋 About This Mod
Better Character Creation - Faster Start
Better Character Creation - Faster Start is an addon to Better Character Creation that further speeds up character creation by making some minor tweaks. It is intended for impatient people who want less yapping and more playing, bedside manner be damned!
The mod does three things: first, it speeds up the process of getting to the Vigor Tester by shortening script timers and disabling certain animations and lines. Second, it makes the Vigor Tester usable without having to wait for Doc Mitchell to get to his spot and say his line. Lastly, it automatically enables Wild Wasteland and Hardcore mode.
List of disabled lines
-
[]"Whoa, easy there. Easy. You been out cold a couple of days now."
[
]"Why don't you just relax a second? Get your bearings."[]"Huh. Can't say it's what I'd have picked for you. But if that's your name, that's your name" (also disabled in the original mod).
[]"How'd I do?"
[]"Take it slow now. It ain't a race."
[]"Looking good so far. Go ahead and give the vigor tester a try. We'll learn right quick if you got back all your faculties."
Compatibility
Better Character Creation - Faster Start should be compatible with most mods as long as they do not edit the same few quests and scripts. It is likely incompatible with Tale of Two Wastelands.
Installation
Extract the contents of the archive to the Data folder of your Fallout: New Vegas installation.
