📋 About This Mod
Love it, or hate it, the Pip-Boy glove has been a long standing annoyance in Fallout New Vegas. It can be a blight on bulkier armors but can also add to lighter ones. Moreover, sometimes you just want to see your hands unburdened by any additional handwear. Where most people choose to remove the glove from the universe outright, this mod will turn the glove into a unique piece of playable apparel. In the game, the glove already exists in the player inventory (as well as other Pip-Boy users) but is hidden from inventories and is stat-less. Now, you'll be able to see and interact with the glove in your inventory. Equip it, unequip it, repair it, drop it, sell it, the choice is yours. While the glove offers almost nothing in terms of defense stats, it allows the player to have an additional 10 action points, mostly for use in VATS. Now there are genuine benefits to using the glove if you choose to.
