📋 About This Mod
Additional Details
-To reiterate, when you get to Doc Mitchell's place from the CW, this will permanently revert your character's Level, XP, Skills, Perks, and Karma to what you'd have at Level 1, with a few exceptions.
-Most notably, permanent Skill bonuses earned via Skill Books are kept intact.
-Perks earned outside of character creation, like those earned through Challenges or Quests, will also be preserved.
-Furthermore, you may also add exceptions to what gets reset via INI file.
-NOTE: Not all Perks could be entirely removed, since some have their effects tied to tricky-to-revert Quest stages. The list below details the Perks which will not be removed (yet):
Intense Training
Animal Friend
Fortune Finder
Implant GRX
Contract Killer
Daddy's Boy/Girl
Here and Now
Animal Friend
Ferocious Loyalty
-Any other perk that contains a Quest-type Perk Entry (modded ones included).
-This mod also lets you re-select your SPECIAL stats, Tagged Skills, and your Traits.
-Includes an INI file to configure some of mod's extra features.
These features are:
- []Vigor Tester Toggle - (bLoveTester)
-By default, the SPECIAL allotment screen is chosen, unless you modify the INI.
-Note: will also apply if you start a new game in NV.
- []Quick Start - (bQuickStart)
-Quick starting is enabled by default.
-Note: will also apply if you start a new game in NV.
- []Get A Perk Reward - (bGetPerk)
-By default, the player earns a perk called "Humbled", which makes you gain 25% more XP.
That is, until you return to the Level you were last at before getting shot in the head. When that happens, the perk just gives 10% more XP.
-You may also choose to earn one of the LR DLC Karma-based perks, like "Ain't Like That Now".
Choosing this will make the PC earn the appropriate perk based on their Karma.
Note that it will also disable the player from getting one of these perks later down the road.
