📋 About This Mod

PUT YOUR HANDS UP
Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3 don't have armor items for your hands. There are glove styled weapons, but no gloves you can just wear for cosmetic/protective purposes. Well, users of STARS TTW will know that Sweet6Shooter has added a fair number of hand-apparel items, including Left and Right hand variants. As the base game does not have this by default, ySI's sorting system does not account for it. So, here's a patch.

Also added icons for the Power Glove replacers added by No PipBoy in Power Armor's plugin. Not necessarily a requirement, but it is a requirement of STARS TTW so most users should already have this. Either way, there won't be any issues for users without NPBPA.

I made the glove icon in Pixelmator using license-free resources provided in the app. I am not an artist, so if anyone has a better icon they'd like to recommend, let me know and I may swap it out. Poncho icon was sourced from Consistent Pip-Boy Icons v4/(Modders Resources) Icon Template Files and Sources, thanks to the work of ItsMeJesusHChrist and their team of contributors.

INSTALLATION
Either install with MO2/mod manager of choice, or extract to \Fallout New Vegas\Data.

COMPATIBILITY
This patch was made specifically for users of STARS TTW and ySI. There should be no compatibility issues. Technically also compatible with No PipBoy in Power Armor even without STARS TTW.
