📋 About This Mod

Hello everyone! Some of you may remember me as \'that Quest guy\' from Fallout 3. I\'m glad to see that you made the long, dangerous journey from the Capitol wasteland to the searing sands of Nevada in one piece. Welcome! If you\'re more in the mood for questing than tweaking, head on over to Tales from the Burning Sands and get your boots dusty with my first adventure mod. Hope to see you there!

Installation Extract the contents of the balance modules you chose to download to your New Vegas Data folder. Tick the box next to the appropriate .esp in the New Vegas \'Data Files\' launcher (or the New Vegas Mod Manager.) Description This mod will consist of a number of modules designed to tweak, balance, and adjust gameplay. Most of the content will be ported over from my existing Fallout 3 mods, and kept in one place to make it easier for players to find the balance modules they want. As a heads-up, these modules will generally be designed to make the Nevada landscape a far less forgiving place. Most (though not necessarily all, as is the case with Quieter Vats) will probably be best enjoyed by those playing Very Hard+Hardcore and still seeking a bit of extra stress from the wasteland (without resorting to such gimmicks as increased enemy health, etc.). All modules are completely independent, and can be enabled or disabled at any time. PMT - Responsive Kill Reactions.esp version 1. 01 This mod is a port of Mezmorki\'s Responsive Kill Reactions (with original scripting from schlangster) from Fallout 3. The only change made to the script is a check to see if the player is cloaked (via StealthBoy effect) when assessing a response. If the player is cloaked the detection event (which causes the actor who discovered the body move to aggressively toward the player) is not generated. Check the readme file for debugging information, as well as various settings that can be changed. NVSE is required for this mod to function properly. PMT - MultiTweak Pack 1. 02 - Update June. 25. 2012. New NO REDUCED WORD ITEMS optional .esp. Use this one instead of the regular MultiTweak if you are experiencing slowdowns with the standard MultiTweak. The inspiration for this came to me when I realized that several of my mods were overwriting each other, leading to unavoidable conflicts in certain areas. I decided to combine all of the mods that were fighting each other into one, enabling me to reduce conflicts and create a more peaceful .esp environment. I thought that introducing a slightly more colorful customization method than changing globals via console commands would be a good addition, so I added a new location for the player to find that contains so
