📋 About This Mod
Description:
Are you tired of wasting time in the lockpick or hacking minigames? Your character has the skill, so why can't you just get through with it? Well I present to you "Bypass Minigames", the all-in-one way for easy minigame bypassing, without having to open their interface at all! Just press Z while you're looking at the terminal or locked door/container.
What it Does:
Press Z (can be configured) while looking at the locked terminal/door/container with the correct skill level or higher to bypass the minigame completely, however there are some side effects, for starters you will not gain experience for bypassing a minigame, period, secondly bypassing a physical lock has a chance to break a bobby pin depending on player skill vs lock requirement, so you need at least one to unlock doors and containers.
Recommended Mods:
Yukichigai Unofficial Patch: Never play without YUP, it is the ultimate unofficial patch for New Vegas and fixes thousands of bugs and mistakes, both big and small.
Unofficial Patch NVSE Plus: A collection of bug fixes that require and utilize NVSE and JIP LN.
Controller Support: For players using controllers.
Bypass Minigames - Lockpick and Hacking lets you skip lockpick and hacking minigames by pressing Z, provided you have the required skill. A simple QoL mod for players who find these minigames tedious, with 708 endorsements and 23,960 downloads.
