📋 About This Mod
Name: Silver Rush Door Guard Version: 1. 1 Author(s): Ripple
Description =========== After you complete the first mission of "Birds of a Feather", Gloria Van Graff informs you that she's found another door guard "more experienced" than you. When does this door guard arrive to assume his post? Did Gloria lie to you? You can wait a hundred days and he will never come, because there isn't an additional entance guard....unless you install this mod!
This mod adds a guard to the Silver Rush entrance opposite Simon, who will assume his post after you complete the first mission of "Birds of a Feather." It doesn't matter if you have already finished the mission or even the entire quest. The door guard will arrive as long as the Van Graffs aren't dead.
Details ======= Along with "Atomic Wrangler Sex Workers", This mod is part of my further deneration into my obsessive-compulsive 'immersion' fetish. That is all.
Install ======= 1. Extract the files to /Fallout New Vegas/Data/ 2. Start the Fallout New Vegas Launcher, click 'Data Files', place a checkmark beside the SRDG.esm file.
Uninstall ========= 1. Start the Fallout New Vegas Launcher, click Data Files, uncheck the SRDG.esm file. 2. Delete SRDG.esm from the /Data/ foldier. 2. Delete all files in the /Data/Sound/Voice/SRDG.esm/ sub-directory.
Incompatibility, issues, or bugs. ================================= The door guard is added via script. No modifications are made to the "Birds of a Feather" quest. This mod should work with mods like "Save Cass."
The plugin has been checked and cleaned in FNVEdit. Please report any issues.
