📋 About This Mod
The very talented Borjoyzee has left Fallout New Vegas Nexus but fortunately gave me permission to reupload his stuff. So here\'s Caves of Primm. All credit goes to Borjoyzee. --- Name: Caves of Primm Version: 2 Category: Building/Locations/Player Homes Author(s): Borjoyzee Description Over near the eastern parts of Primm nestled in the mountainous area are the cave systems of Primm. You can explore the caves and choose to live there, but you must clear them out of Powder Gangers first. Also explains how they got into Primm so easily in the first place. While most carried on through and took over Primm, some decided to stay behind and set up home for themselves. They won\'t respawn and their dead bodies will disappear after a few days, so once you\'ve cleared the caves of Powder Gangers the place can be yours as there is a nice shack available with lots of nice features. Main Features - Sorters for everything except weapons and armor. - Workbench, Reloading Bench, Campfire. - Water Purifier, taking 1 dirty bottle of water and giving 1 purified bottle. - Plenty of normal storage. - Nuka Vending Machine so you can buy Nuka Cola, Quantum, Quartz and Victory. Also a Sass Machine selling sass. - Garbage can that will incinerate anything you\'ve put into it so it\'s gone for good. - Lab for brewing chems and detoxifying yourself. - Infirmary for healing, fixing crippled limbs and flushing rads from your system. - Autodoc for changing your facial features, gender, race and your name. - Teleporter to take with you for teleporting back to the caves, and to go back to your previous location. - Merchant living in a cave, near the boat dock. Sells junk mainly for now. - Merchant has a dog you can borrow, even buy a dog whistle to call him or send him back to his master. - The dog is set to essential, but leveled to your own level. - Nearby ant nest with friendly ants, with: - Forager ants, will give you random useful/less junk once per day. They are found all over the caves system. - Queen ant located in the Ant Caves, she will give you some of her pheromones that will: - Summon Ifrit the Fire Ant. You can tell him to follow and wait, go back home and also: - If you have some Ant Meat, Cram and Flour, ask him to cook the ingredients into some Fire Ant Fricassee. - He is set to essential, but is leveled to your own level. And loves setting your enemies on fire >8) Other Stuff Be careful near edges as there are places where you can fall a long way, as you might have noticed in the screenshots. In most cases you\'ll just land in water and I always put places where you can get out, but if you\'re unlucky you might just catch the edge of an outcropping on the way down or something... Been working on this for quite a while, and I wanted to just get the mod out and let people have a look. But I plan on adding more to it. More areas, backstory, enemies..anything I can think of
