📋 About This Mod
This is my first mod so please be nice!
I think https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/63620 is really cool, but it was bugging me that the in-game chip is not round like the physical collector's edition coin. So I made a new mesh and textures that made me feel a little less steamed about eating lead over it. The main file is just an asset replacer no esp/plugin needed.
Optional File:
Replaces the $500 chip that is used in blackjack with the platinum chip and adjusts casino max bets and betting limits to allow you to get it on the table. It does not bet the actual quest item so won't mess up your game if you lose a hand while betting it. Also imo the higher hand limits are good limits in their own right. The esp will conflict with anything else that changes the max bet per hand. Details:New Casino Limits: Max Winnings/Table Limits/Slots
Vikki & Vance: 4000/200/50
Atomic Wrangler: 7500/500/100
Gomorrah: 15000/1000/200
The Tops: 25000/1400/250
Ultra-Luxe: 50000/2000
If you want to see the chip use console command: player.placeatme 001164fb 1 to create one at your feet. Maybe do a lil hop so it isn't clipping the ground (that's what I did).
Installation:
Throw it in your data folder or use a mod manager. If you are installing the optional file just merge it with the main file. It needs the textures but doesn't overwrite anything.
Same process in reverse
