📋 About This Mod

THIS MOD IS THE FORMER JUMPING SPIDERS MOD. IT IS NOW AN

EXTENDED VERSION WITH MORE VARIATIONS OF SPIDERS.

Eleven species of spiders:

Black Widow

Arkansas Chocolate Tarantula

Curlyhair Tarantula

Ivory Ornamental Tarantula

Mexican Redknee Tarantula

Mexican Redleg Tarantula

 Socotra Island Blue Baboon Tarantula

Nondescript Giant Tarantula

Nondescript Giant Spider

Boris the Spider

* Jumping Spider

They spawn in the wilderness parts of the map.

They come in four sizes, small, medium, big and giant. The giants have

radscorpion stats. But the smaller the spider, the tougher and more poisonous

it is. Small spiders are ghosts, they don't show on the detectionradar thing or

whatever the hell it is called.

There is an extra patch that I use for testing. It spawns all eleven spiders on

the road south of goodsprings. Be sure to be in god mode (tgm in console) if

you are planning to meet them there, or else you won't survive.

The old Jumping Spiders mod is still available in old files but I will delete

it in the future because it is buggy.

KNOWN ISSUE:

1: There seems to be an issue with spiders not attacking sometimes. It seems

to happen randomly, or when spiders have respawned. This probably is a mod

conflict or an NVSE plugin that's messing things up. I have looked into it

but I haven't found a fix yet. This problem is hard to troubleshoot because

the bug is so random. To get things going again you can disable the ESP,

save the game, re-enable the ESP and load the save again. That works every time.

2. The Blue Baboon Tarantula and Redleg Tarantula have a texture glitch on the

hind legs. I don't really care about that, so this is a won't fix.
