Ammo Description:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


New basic ammo types are as follows:

Incendiary: Creates an incendiary explosion on impact, and sets targets on fire.
Explosive: Creates an explosion on impact, Does massive damage to unarmoured targets, But has a DT penalty. Also great for seeing where your shot.
High Explosive: Creates an explosion on impact, Does massive damage and penetrates armour. Also great for seeing where your shot lands.
Tracer: Shows you the path of your bullet, in all guns! Most machine guns also only fire 50% tracers, So these fire 100%. See how accurate your pistol or rifle is.
Plastic: Less lethal rounds, Mainly do fatigue damage.
SWC +P: Like normal rounds, Only heavier, And packed with an overpressure powder load. More damage, Small DT reduction. Small weapon condition penalty.
+P: Like normal rounds, but packed with an overpressure powder load. Slightly more damage, small DT reduction, Small weapon condition penalty.
JHP: Jacketed Hollow Point: Like HP rounds, But with less DT penalty and slightly lower damage. Typical 2X DT and 1.5X damage
JSP: Jacketed Soft Point: Like normal rounds, But small DT reduction and small increase in damage.
FMJ: Full metal jacket: Like AP ammo, But with a lead core for more damage then AP but less DT reduction.
All Jacketed rounds also cause less wear to weapons then normal rounds.


New energy ammo types are as follows:

Regulated: A built in regulator results in more consistent energy output, Resulting in less wear, and a slight improvement in damage output.
Modulated: Modulated to produce a longer, lower energy output that does large damage to flesh, but fails to damage armoured foes.
Pulsed: Micro pulsed output that is much better at defeating armour, Without the wear that overcharged ammo results in.


New 12Ga/20Ga/25mm/40mm ammo is as follows:

Buckshot: Wide spread, High damage.
Magnum: More buckshot, More powder, More damage.
Incendiary Slug: Explodes on impact producing a Incendiary explosion that ignites anyone caught in the blast.
Plasma Slug: Results in plasma explosion on impact
Explosive Slug: Detonates on impact producing an explosion.
High Explosive Slug: Detonates on impact producing a large explosion.
Lead Slug: Single slug of lead, High damage
Magnum Slug: An even bigger slug of lead and more powder, high damage.
Tri-Ball: Three slug like projectiles puncture armor better then buckshot with less spread.
Glass shot: Like hollow point buckshot ammo for shotguns. 3X DT and 1.75X damage. Great for Cazadors.
Flechette: Large number of small steel darts, armour piercing buckshot.
Mine: Grenade that does not explode on impact, but is proximity triggered. May be disarmed and recovered.
Remote: Remote detonated grenade, Detonated via 'Detonator' Weapon used by C4 or by damage.
Cluster: Detonates on impact, releasing a number of smaller time delayed grenades. Massive damage.
EMP: Makes an EMP/Electrical blast that damages Robots and power armour users, And causes fatigue damage and temporary paralysis to everyone!
Impulse: Causes a controlled shock wave that blasts enemies away causing large amounts of fatigue damage


New Missile ammo is as follows:
Cluster: Detonates on impact, releasing a number of smaller time delayed grenades. Massive damage.
EMP: Makes an EMP/Electrical blast that damages Robots and power armour users, And causes fatigue damage and temporary paralysis to everyone!
Carpet: Explodes in midair when it detects a NPC or Creature within 15 feet, Scattering small bomblets everywhere! Massive area damage!

For crafting recipes for all ammo types (hundreds of other recipes too), Download Craft pack. http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=43918


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Module description:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CASE.esm
Main ESM file, Contains all new ammo types, New ammo leveled lists, new ammo effects, etc.
Does not alter any existing records. CASE-Rebalance.esp does that to insure the overrides can be placed last in the load order.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CASE-Rebalance.esp
Needs CASE.esm
Alters existing ammo types and ammo list forms to conform with CASE
Needed to use new ammo types in weapons.
Alters all ammo boxes and case boxes to have a standard 100 rounds or cases.

Increased Percent of empty cases recovered from most weapons/ammo types. Now its 30 to 40%.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Leveled List Organizer.esm
Leveled List Organizer.esp

Leveled List Organizer.esp Must be last in load order, And should not be merged with other mods!

New leveled list resource for modders. Makes it MUCH easier to add new weapons to the game by sorting out and simplifying the leveled lists!

Restructuring of the leveled lists was done to more easily add weapons to factions, and know exactly where and what level they will show up, Resulting in a much cleaner and easier to edit selection of leveled lists, as well as easier to make mods inter-compatible, and easier to copy and paste additions from one faction/npc subtype to another in FNVedit, resulting in much less work overall to add a weapon to multiple leveled lists.

Rebalances most vendors to have much more ammo, and more relevant weapons and mods.
Rebalances most NPC's to spawn with more variation in weaponry. Many NPC's used to be hard coded to only use one weapon.

See included Leveled List Organizer.txt for more details and instructions on how to make your own LLO patches!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Merged version of LLO-Partial Patch-CASE.esp + LLO-Base Patch-Overhaul.esp

Be warned! Some of the new ammo types are very powerful!
Typical 30% chance that a NPC will have a regular round, 70% that it will be a new CASE round!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FAQ:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Can't use the new ammo types
A: Enable CASE-Rebalance.esp and put it as last in your load order.

Q: Is it Compatible with X?
A: CASE.esm adds totally new ammo and alters nothing, however to use that ammo, CASE-Rebalance.esp alters a number of form lists.
As such, CASE will likely not be compatible with other mods that add ammo without a merged patch. However it should be compatible with most other mods, Although mods that add weapons to NPC's typically won't spawn with the new CASE ammo, unless a dedicated patch has been made.

Currently, Classic Fallout Weapons has its own patch. Project Nevada has been tested by a user and no conflicts found, Other then NPC's with new Nevada weapons do not spawn with CASE ammo.
If you find a conflict between this mod and another that does not add new ammo, Please leave a comment and I may attempt to fix it.

Leveled List Organizer alters a LARGE number of leveled lists and will likely override other mods changes. It will work with other mods, but likely prevent them from adding items to NPCs unless a proper patch is made for that mod.

Q: Is it Compatible with DLC?
A: Honest hearts has a patch to make it compatible and use the new .45 Auto ammo types. However I don't have GRA or Lonesome road yet, so I can not make patches for those DLC's. It should work fine with Dead Money and Old World Blues. Although new NPC's might not spawn with the new CASE ammo.

Q: I don't like ammo type X, Can you remove it?
A: No, However I have been considering making a 'Realistic' version of the LLO-Partial Patch-CASE.esp plugin, that would result in NPC's and vendors not having the more exotic ammo types. (Although craft pack could still be used to craft them), If you desire this, please leave a comment and tell me what ammo types you don't like.

Q: I found a bug
A: Please report it in the comments section, or as a private message to me. I love to get bug reports as finding a bug is most of the work needed to fix one.

Q: The game stutters or lags when I use explosive ammo?
A: http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/635371-explosion-stutter-fix

Ehy Cyber, I would like to use the new version along with PN(no equipment) and FOOK. Which files should I use? The only "issue" I should get is the fact that NPCs with FOOK weapons won't drop any CASE ammo right?
