📋 About This Mod

This tiny mod "fixes" a tiny thing that's always bothered me about the start of Fallout 3 - the free XP resulting in enough for a levelup when leaving the vault.

Admittedly, the biggest reason that I dislike this is because anytime I start a new game to do a test for a mod I'm messing with, I always have to go through the levelup screen when I COC out of the starting cave when using Quick Start, but when using Quick Start for normal play, it feels dumb to me to just get a levelup for free when walking out the door to start the game.

The levelup does feel more earned when not using Quick Start, but I hardly ever don't use it, and even if I don't use it, I'd still prefer to get the XP to levelup more organically through the XP granted during the intro sequence and early combat outside the vault.

Requirements:

JIP LN, xNVSE, Johnny, the usual stuff.

TTW, obviously.

Installation:

Regular installation.

There is a version for Quick Start users and a version for those who do not use Quick Start. Choose one, delete the other.

Please endorse and vote if you appreciate the mod.

Load Order:

Place this after Delay DLC Redux. Don't use it's Delay CG04 Levelup file if using this file.

Permissions:

Do whatever.

Support:

If you'd like to support my modding work or say thanks, feel free to donate via the Nexus or here at Ko-Fi.
