📋 About This Mod
This file provides a user-configurable increase or decrease in the size and/or intensity of all ambient radiation in the game.
Configurable in the config ini.
Setting fRadiusMult to 0 will effectively remove ambient radiation from the game.
Requirements:
JIP LN, xNVSE, Johnny, ShowOff, the usual stuff.
Installation:
Regular installation.
Please endorse and vote if you appreciate the mod.
When updating from version 1.xx to version 2. 0+, replace your installation.
Compatibility:
Compatible with anything that uses standard radiation markers to create ambient radiation.
There was previously a version specifically for Irradiated Lonesome Road users, but compatibility with that mod has been folded into the main file.
Bugs:
Please report bugs in the bugs tab, not the posts. I get a notification when bugs are reported, but I have too many mods to keep up on the posts on all of them routinely.
Permissions:
Do whatever.
Support:
If you'd like to support my modding work or say thanks, feel free to donate via the Nexus or here at Ko-Fi.
