📋 About This Mod
This is the third installment in the Mojave Master series, it currently lacks a few voices for characters, I personally have voiced 2-3 of them so any help would be MUCH appreciated. The Desert Ranger's Task Force 101 has been assigned to investigate Anthony Spilotro's presence in the Mojave, tracking him down to the town of Cascade, ran by the Crusader's of Atom; a splinter faction of the Children of the Cathedral. Use multiple tactics to perform your investigation, you may act as a spy for the Rangers, attempting to join their ranks, investigate around town, or even betray the Rangers and help the Crusade. This is an "introductory" to Task Force 101, which will eventually play as an essential point to the plot in later installments (only for my Cannon endings to this mod). But of course, like in all my mods it doesn't end there! After liberating the town of the Crusade (if you so choose) you will be given a quest line to regroup with the old town members and rebuild the town from the ground up! I had a lot of fun in this mod and did a lot of experimenting, so PLEASE keep in mind this could contain some bugs, in fact i guarantee there will be bugs, most I can fix, some I can't and it's just the weird quirks of the engine. That DOES NOT mean I haven't play tested it, I have it's just difficult to predict and do every thing that the players have the freedom to do in the mod.
Where to start: The far guard tower in Old Mormon Fort.

Bug:
Strange bug where aiming get glitched out, I honesty have no idea why it does that but i suspect it could be from the Mojave Master Animations that were added, a possible solution delete the _male and 1stperson in meshes\characters. I will investigate ASAP.
