📋 About This Mod

Description:

This mod is a simple script runner that buffs the Dinner Bell (unique Hunting Shotgun). This mod essentially serves as a ESPless version of Dinner Bell Reworked by RonaldMcBigD, which is the inspiration behind Dinner Bell Reworked - ESPless.

This is what Dinner Bell Reworked - ESPless does:

  • []Magazine size increased from 5 to 7.

    []Spread reduced from 1. 2 to 0. 85.

    []Number of projectiles increased from 7 to 8.

    []Action points used reduced from 28 to 24.

    []Required Guns skill raised from 75 to 90.

    []Base VATS accuracy raised from 20% to 35%.

    []Crit chance multiplier raised from 1. 0 to 1. 5.

    []Base damage raised from 75 to 85. (Base damage is divided by the number of pellets, so raising the base damage will retain nearly the same damage per pellet).

    []Durability increased from 150 to 200.

I attempted to get EVERYTHING from Dinner Bell Reworked; however, due to certain limitations I was not able to, but I got pretty close.

This mod will be included in my following collections:

  • []New New Vegas

    []New New Vegas Lite

    []New New Vegas Non-Premium

    []Tale of Two Wastelands

    Compatibility:

    You can use sound mods, animation mods, texture mods, mesh mods, or whatever, but this mod is obviously NOT compatible with any mod that adjusts the statistics of the Dinner Bell Shotgun.

    Credits:

    • []Special thanks goes to Pericov1 who taught me how to write this very simple script.

    • Special thanks goes to RonaldMcBigD for the original vision of the Dinner Bell buff (Dinner Bell Reworked).
