📋 About This Mod
Credit: Used Resources From: Creature and Weapon Modders Resources by CIB http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/39419 by CIB Thank you for an awesome resource! Description assumes familiarity with Craig\'s Boone story/quest in the game if not may contain spoilers. Quest starts on it\'s own when mod first loaded. Modifies the original story line to allow for Carla Boone\'s survival. Engage on multiple quest adventure to find exactly what happened to her and find a way to get her back. In the process you will meet a lot of new NPC\'s that range from slime bags to do gooders and some that just don\'t want to die. A couple main story line quests interconnected for a total gameplay of two plus hours, possibly much longer. Take down a new large crime organization by the name Cobras. Own a private detective agency. Fight in a fight club objective. Arrest certain npc\'s during detective quests. Perform a few stealth kills. Post on comments if you get stuck, save your game twice before starting the mod. The quest story is fully finished and you can play right to the end. However I am in the process of polishing it. (Explained and given out in game as of version 1. 3) Once you reach the detective agency quest pick up a police nightstick on the table in front of the entrance. This is needed to capture alien space ghoul leaders and slavers. To capture the alien leaders, hit them with the police baton when they are unconscious. They are essential so kill them first so the go unconscious and then hit with police baton from the table. It also works if they are knocked out, but the K. O. needs to be from another weapon than the baton used to capture them. Small update 1. 1 : if you can\'t hire boone now there is an old lady with red hair on the second floor of novac hotel. makes one of the safehouse door hackable as opposed to needing a key. Small update 1. 2 now you can send the ghouls back to the agency, talk to them. Update 1. 3 Space Ghouls are out and replaced by actual aliens, from the resource pack, since FNV aliens kept on crashing Ranger helper quest is not a capturing quest anymore, now you kill slavers (still not fully finished) Capturing Baton for the alien captains is now given properly by the Alien Hunter YOUTUBE: http://www.youtube.com/CommentatorSix - Consists of nine parts, complete play test of Version 1. 2 - Thank you for making the videos CommentatorSix. - Channel also has Inheritance, Alpha Six and more! http://www.youtube.com/user/AlChestBreach - Consists of 12 parts, complete play test of Version 1. 3 - Thank you for the laughs, and making the videos Al - Channel also has Lucky Dice Casino, On the trail, and... every imaginable quest mod for FNV http://www.youtube.com/user/TheFraz316 - A few parts are up already - Thank for the review - Channel also has review of NCCS companion system, Portal, and minecraft For all the above search Carla Boone in the channel search and i
