Description
Gunshots in the north, the tearing of flesh and a wounded yelp - a possible ally?
This mod adds a mutated Gila Monster to the game as a fully functional companion! Save its life and earn the trust of a brand new fully custom animated reptile. The venomous dagger-like teeth and bone-plated hide at your command, the lizard also holds within its FEV-ridden cells a few additional tricks for you to discover...
Find the Gila north of Vegas, south of the Northern Passage under a power pylon.
Gila Monsters will feature as a regular enemy type in the upcoming Kingman Arizona quest mod by AgentFuse, the author of The Haunted Casino and The Uncanny Valley Research Center. Check out their Youtube!
Features:
- Brand new custom animated creature companion.
- Balanced to be similar to Rex but with venom.
- Custom companion perk with a new high quality icon!
- Every applicable feature of the vanilla companions.
- Full companion wheel support!
- You can name it anything you want!
- New sounds.
- Custom dialogue anims! Possibly the first of its kind for FNV.
- Custom swimming anims!
- Custom Companion Command and Control icon in the perk/vault-boy style.
- You decide where it calls home. You can also send it to the Lucky 38 once the suite has been unlocked.
- It can wear a few cowboy hats and a space helmet!
- If it soaks up too many rads it may mutate into a more powerful form (with a mild drawback), you can revert this if you wish and also prevent it from ever happening again.
- A teaser for Kingman.
- Wild Wasteland stuff!
FAQs:
Someone: This looks nothing like a Gila Monster!
Me: We know, we couldn't find a game-ready Gila model so we painted a generic lizard in Gila colors instead, blame the FEV!
Someone: Is this compatible with X?
Me: Should be compatible with almost everything, unless a mod drops a building on its initial spawn point you should be good.
Someone: Why did you make this mod?
Me: Fun! Also to learn how to do new things and to work with my friends.
Someone: TTW Patch?
Me: Not necessary.
Someone: Realism? X is wrong!
Me: I don't care.
Installation:
Installs like any other mod, manually or using a mod manager, I recommend the later for easy uninstallation.
Uninstallation:
Installation in reverse.
