Overview:

Similarly to Dynamic Starting Gear Overhaul, this mod changes what gear you're given by Amata at the start of the Escape! Vault 101 quest.


 

This mod does come with one contrivance:

Amata also "gives" you a whole bunch of stuff depending upon your character build. Only one or two items of the total starting gear are shown in the top left overlay message, but the ones that it shows you aren't usually the 10mm Amata gives you.


 

If you'd prefer wasteland themed items instead, maybe check out Wasteland Starting Gear DC instead! Both this and WSGDC can be used in tandem if you want double gear.

Requirements:

Full TTW installation.


 

Installation:

Regular installation.

Please endorse and vote if you appreciate the mod.


 

Compatibility:

Put this below any other character creation overhaul type mods, and you should be fine.

Use the Quickstart version if you're using TTW Quick Start. It gives you all your appropriate gear once when you start the game, instead of during the vault.


 

Questions:

Why is __ in this list?

I tried to make everything in the lists plausible to have been found in a vault at some point, but also theme your character just a little bit right of the bat.


 

Creating your own custom gear set:

Don't change the editor IDs for any of the item lists, they'll break the script.

You could very simply add more conditions and lists to your version of the mod with just a working Geck install very simply.


 

Permissions:

Whatever.
