📋 About This Mod
Made by DaiShi Description: This Mod places a Tau Rail Rifle in the Abandoned Tent (WEST of Tumbleweed Ranch). The Tau weapons are made to last, so theyre not degading, but they have secondary ammo in the form of rechargable Power Cells in the stock. Yo recharge use Tau Power Cells (weapons repairable with Tau Power Cell) For ammo/power cells u should also use my Tau Ammo Vendor http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Known Issues: -nothing so far ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation: Unzip it in Data folder, check Only ONE esp, and DS_WH40k.esm There are 2 versions: -the 1st has electric arc-like beam projectile reminescent of FireWarrior game -the 2nd uses plain old Gauss Rifle projectile ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have Fun!
