📋 About This Mod
Due to its scripted nature, this mod is compatible with every weather mod if you put it below others.
Recently it was discovered that there are three unused weathers in the game's files:
NVHooverDamBattleWeather
NVHooverFinalBattle
NVLegateBattleWeather
As you can tell, all of them were supposed to play in the final battle of the game, not before. After hours of trial and error scripting and getting quite a bit of help, it finally works.
I uploaded two versions of the mod: Both include the Legate weather for, you guessed it: Lanius' camp!
Then there's one version for each Dam weather.
Interplay - For creating this awesome franchise!
Bethesda & Obsidian: For the revival of the Fallout franchise
Demorome & trash - for helping me immensely with the scripts, reworking and fixing them before I almost gave up on this idea
