About this mod Machine translation
Updated for Nightstrikers (version 2.0):
Various bug fixes, the most important being that Borous should now remain in the shed basement until discovered and recruited by the player, and will not randomly pop up when fast traveling or moving through loading doors.
Install the update (version 2.0):
Before uninstalling version 2.0, please reclaim everything in Borous's inventory as you will need to recollect him. If you can't find Borous, whose reference ID is xx008f8c (xx is the number of Nightstrikers in your load order) use the moveto player console command NOT player.placeatme as it creates a copy.
Fire Borous if he is a companion
Move to the inner cell (where there is no Borous) and save your game
Exit the game and uninstall Nightstrikers using your preferred Mod Manager
Load back into the game and create a clean save
Exit the game and install the Nightstrikers update
If something goes wrong because you didn't follow the instructions above, I can't help you.
This mod was created due to two things:
It seems (at least to me) that the number of creatures changes less in Aftermath 4 than in previous entries
Nightstalkers are my favorite animals in Fallout New Vegas and I missed them in FO4
What this mod includes/does (short description, see for more details):
Fallout Nightstalkers, based on New Vegas, spiritually introduces a new class of creatures called Nightstrikers to the Commonwealth
Like their Mojave cousins, all Nightstriker variants are immune to poison damage
Nightstrikers come in 5 styles, each with their own unique textures and abilities
Legendary versions of all 5 variants with their own unique mutation effects
4 new loot exclusive to Nightstrikers
3 new crafting recipes (2 cooking, 1 chemistry)
New unmarked locations, providing some killer(?) for Nightstriker origins
A possible Nightstriker companion
IMPORTANT NOTES REQUIRED:
This mod requires the Far Harbor DLC, without it it will not run and may crash your game. Any requests to remove this requirement will be completely ignored as the mod uses assets from this DLC.
Installation instructions:
Download using NMM or Mod Manger of your choice. If you want to install it manually I assume you already know how to do this.
Uninstall instructions:
Better to use NMM, or open the Fallout 4 Data folder, go to Meshes, Textures, Materials, Sound->Voice/FX, Scripts and delete any folders with Nightstriker in their name.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
