📋 About This Mod

Don't you hate it when you get 37 gold bars and you basically have to carry them around as collateral in your bartering except for when you neglect to take them with you for said bartering because they weigh so much? Not anymore.

This mod adds a new recipe to workbenches--after you get the gold bars, just exchange them for their exact value in caps at a workbench.

I was going to make it require a barter of 100, but I made it 0 instead since if you actually go through the trouble of escaping the sierra madre with all 37 gold bars, you should be able to exchange them right away, regardless of your skill.

The recipe only requires 1 gold bar, so you can convert as many or as little as you like.

This mod also comes with an optional file to do the same for gold bars earned from The Inheritance quest mod.

Note: Dead Money gold bars are worth 10,547 caps each while Enclave gold bars (from The Inheritance) are worth 10,539. This is because I use the value listed in FNVEdit exactly, rather than what's used in-game.
