::: New Creatures

::: Enclave Deathclaw Alpha

So you know those Deathclaws the Enclave are fond of harnessing? They kinda did one better, you know gave it a small boost with some protective armour... and a giant twin-pronged blade. Add to it your list of creatures under 'RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!'. Thanks go to Tumbajumba for the model.

::: Super Mutant Enforcers

Enclave Armoured Super Mutants, with long spiked Gauntlets to tear you a new one. Yay! They can be found with Enclave Patrols and checkpoints mostly. Big thanks go to c.i.b for the models.

::: Abominable Mutants

You only know them as an abhorrent abomination that clearly shouldn't have lived from Vault 87. But some did, and they can be found with their Super Mutant brethren. To handle the pain of their deformities they use a lot of drugs, which you're free to take if you can kill them. Another excellent model set from c.i.b.

::: Wild Boar

Rather large and slighty crazy wild boar for you to hunt... or run from. Hit as hard as they look. Can loot them for Boar Meat and Wild Boar Ears. One of two Stalker creatures from Toxa01.

::: Monstrous Dog

Scientists thought dogs were supposed to have been escaped mutations after the war. They were wrong. Though less common, Monstrous Dogs are far more fearsome than their Vicious Dog counterparts. Those long, shiny, sharp, teeth can fetch a pretty penny though if you can loot Monstrous Dog Teeth from them. The second of two Stalker creatures from Toxa01.

::: Yao Guai Pup

Awww! So cute! And yet, so deadly. Don't make the mistake of patting one of these guys, you'll lose your hand. Or you can take theirs -- Yao Guai Pup Claws are valuable, being somewhat rare. Pups spawn, of couse, near their parents so be careful... they're not alone. Pups are thanks to c.i.b too.

::: Sesom's Iguanas

Where does Iguana-on-a-stick come from? Now you know! Iguanas can be found in the wasteland, and are passive unless provoked. They come in three colours, but beware the Yellow one, it's poisonous. At night, they freeze due to the cold night and then re-animate at sunrise. You can also kill an Iguana for Iguana Bits, or pick one up live to sell or eat raw.

If you want the full experience of unleashing Iguanas on the Wasteland, use the full http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=13537 from Sesom and complete the quest. This also allows Iguanas to be given to vendors and swapped for the on-stick variety and the ability to raise an Iguana as a pet. Note Iguanas won't appear in the Wasteland until you complete the quest.

::: New and Updated Features

::: New Menu System!

Yes, finally, you too can configure MMM to your heart's content through the comfortable interface of the Pipboy! Just click to 'Apparel' and you'll find an option to launch the MMM Configuration panel. Huge thanks go to Mezmorelda and the FWE team for building the initial version of this.

NOTE: The first time you load your game with the menu plugin loaded, it takes 15 seconds before you'll see the option in your Pipboy.

ALSO NOTE: You still need to load certain plugins that can't be configured from the menu: these are Natural Selection, Tougher Traders, Zones Respawns and the DLC plugins. All the rest can be done through the menu.

::: Body Part Amputation

Removing tails, teeth, hands, eyes, horns etc from creatures will destroy that particular body part on removal. Additionally, bodyparts destroyed during combat are no longer lootable -- if you blow off a MoleRat's head, you can't loot its teeth.

::: Night Ghoul Vision

Finding it hard to see in the dark at night when you're a young whipper-snapper before you get power armor (or have your batteries run out?) Chow down on some munchy crunchy Night Ghoul eyes to beat the Night Ghouls at their own game! Taste's like chicken, too.

New in RC6: Night Ghoul Eyes now give you an AP boost and increase your movement speed 100%. Not only can you see like Night Ghouls now, but move like them too. Feel the power of the Night Ghoul!

::: Night time penalties for NPCs

It's harder to shoot and fight in the dark, isn't it? At least it should be. NPCs now suffer a penalty to Perception, Weapon and Melee abilities at night making sneaking in the dark and generally staying undetected at night easier, as well making night time combat harder for them. The effect applies only to NPCs outside, and is nullified if they wear Power Armour. Creatures are also unaffected (most will have adapted to night time survival).

::: Gooification and Disintegration

Gooification and Disintegration now destroys all meat, flesh and body part loot (which, if you think about it, is really how it should be). Now Goo and Ash piles are just that -- goo and dust.

This only applies to Creatures. Robots and NPCs have been made excempt by request, for those scavenging for robot parts or Energy Weapon users who rely on looting dead NPCs.

::: Soft Unleveling

Provides a chance for a encounter from any level, regardless of player level. It helps to make the game more challenging (and rewarding, if you take down foes much bigger than you) and to provide a less linear experience as you level (where you're often reminded that you've gained a level because a new type of creature suddenly starts appearing).

NOTE: This function only works if Increased Spawns are active, and the chance is applied for each enemy spawned. The Soft Unleveler plugin sets this to 12%, Soft Unleveler hardcoe to 25%.

ALSO NOTE: This is enabled by default for Menu users. It will likely become completely standard next version (i.e the Soft Unleveling optional .esps may change to reflect this).

::: Dynamic Player Scaling

Dynamically scales difficulty during the game as the player gains in level. The scaling applies only to the influence MMM has on your game: globals for Increased Spawns, Behemoth Chance, Feral Ghoul Raise and Soft Unleveling are gently increased as you level. DPS works by applying an incremental bonus dervied from the player's level, and can be adjusted to whatever value you want. Values between 4-6 are probably ideal. The Dynamic Player Scaling plugin uses 5 by default. To use other values edit the .esp directly, or use the new in-game Pipboy menu which provides values for 4, 5 and 6. To see how DPS would affect your game, see this table:

DPS -- 4		MMMzBehemothChance [2]			|	MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMax [3]			|	|	MMMzFeralGhoulRaiseChance [50]			|	|	|	MMMzSoftUnleveling [12]			|	|	|	|Player level 2 --	2%, 	1-3,	50%,	12%Player level 4 -- 	3%,	1-3,	55%,	14%Player level 8 -- 	4%,	1-4,	60%,	16%Player level 12 --	5%,	1-4,	65%,	18%Player level 16 --	6%,	1-5,	70%,	20%Player level 20 --	7%,	1-5,	75%,	22%Player level 24 --	8%,	1-6,	80%,	24%...DPS -- 5		MMMzBehemothChance [2]			|	MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMax [3]			|	|	MMMzFeralGhoulRaiseChance [50]			|	|	|	MMMzSoftUnleveling [12]			|	|	|	|Player level 2 --	2%,	1-3,	50%,	12%Player level 5 --	3%,	1-3,	55%,	14%Player level 10 --	4%,	1-4,	60%,	16%Player level 15 --	5%, 	1-4,	65%,	18%Player level 20 --	6%,	1-5,	70%,	20%Player level 25 --	7%,	1-5,	75%,	22%...DPS -- 6		MMMzBehemothChance [2]			|	MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMax [3]			|	|	MMMzFeralGhoulRaiseChance [50]			|	|	|	MMMzSoftUnleveling [12]			|	|	|	|Player level 2 --	2%,	1-3,	50%,	12%Player level 6 --	3%, 	1-3,	55%,	14%Player level 12 -- 	4%,	1-4,	60%,	16%Player level 18 --	5%,	1-4,	65%,	18%Player level 24 --	6%,	1-5,	70%,	20%...

NOTE: The above assumes both Increased Spawns and Soft Unleveling is enabled. The Increased Spawns maximum modifier applies only if Increased Spawns or Increased Increased Spawns is loaded. Keep in mind all bonuses are on top of the initial base value -- i.e if you have Feral Ghoul Raise set to 75%, then at DPS level 12 it will be on 85%. If you use Increased Increased Spawns, the MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMax increase applies on top of 5 from the 2-5 of Increased Increased Spawns.

::: Recommended load order

In general, with some of the changes over recent versions, I thought I'd update a list of modules I'd recommend for use in your MMM experience at a minimum:

Mart's Mutant Mod.esp
Mart's Mutant Mod - DLC plugins (for the DLCs you use)
Mart's Mutant Mod - Natural Selection
Mart's Mutant Mod - Tougher Traders*
Mart's Mutant Mod - Zones Respawn
Mart's Mutant Mod - Mutant Mod Menu

(*if you don't use any other mods that beef up traders)
And, in the menu, set at least Increased Spawns to 1-3, and the Soft Unleveler to 12% (note Soft Unleveling depends on Increased Spawns). For old style configuration (if you don't want to or can't use the menu) as a minimum:

Mart's Mutant Mod.esp
Mart's Mutant Mod - DLC plugins (for the DLCs you use)
Mart's Mutant Mod - Increased Spawns
Mart's Mutant Mod - Natural Selection
Mart's Mutant Mod - Tougher Traders*
Mart's Mutant Mod - Zones Respawn
Mart's Mutant Mod - Soft Unleveler

If you use FWE then Natural Selection, Tougher Traders, and Zones Respawn are included in the FOIP FWE-MMM plugin. So is the menu. This means your FWE load order for MMM should look like:

Mart's Mutant Mod.esp
Mart's Mutant Mod - DLC plugins (for the DLCs you use)
Mart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release

You can then configure both MMM and FWE settings from your Pipboy. NOTE: When installing, just choose the Menu method if you use the FOMOD, then grab and install the FOIP MMM-FWE plugin.

::: Overview :::
------------------

This mod is a port of MMM from Oblivion to Fallout 3. It focuses on adding a huge range of diversity to creatures and NPCs in the Fallout 3 world as well as adding new and unique creatures and NPCs to encounter. The mod is broken down into a core base and a range of optional modules.

The key results the mod achieves are:

Every creature and NPC is unique with its own stats, size, confidence, health, damage and even skin (texture)
Creatures and NPCs suffer improved wounding effects such as visible bleedng and statistic penalties
Creatures and NPCs can loot the corpses of fallen enemies, afterwhich you can find this loot if you kill them
Creatures and NPCs have improved behavioural AI based on class -- in any given group some may be aggressive towards you, some may be ambivalent, and others may avoid you outright.
Configurable increased spawns allow you tailor how many creatures and NPCs spawn in the game at any given spawn point
Improved faction system to better reflect inter-faction relations and ensure the player isn't the center of the universe
New creatures and NPCs to add variety to the wasteland -- all hand-crafted with their own stats, abilities, loot, weapons, textures and in some cases scripted AI behaviour.

Main features include:

:: Stat scaling

All creatures and NPCs have a sliding-scale random modified adjustment to their base values for STR, END, PER, INT, AGI, LUC, Speed and Health.

The adjustments range -3 to 3, with the following percentages: 30% no change, 30% -1/+1, 30% -2/+2, 10% -3/+3.

The exceptions are STR, END and Health values which are based on size (see next), as are loot drops for creatures (see below), where larger creatures are stronger, have more endurance, and more health.

:: Size scaling

Isn't it a little bit odd that all creatues and NPCs are identical in size? Indeed, so size scaling randomly adjusts size based off base value between a factor of +/- 20% for creatures, and +/- 12.5% for NPCs (though it's actually weighted -10% to +15%.). It's not quite a blanket rule -- Ghouls for example follow size scaling closer to NPCs, given they were formerely people.

As above, size is more than just visual variety -- it impacts the strength, endurance, and health. Larger creatures hit harder, and last longer.

:: Size based loot

Larger creatures will drop more meat, smaller ones less (or none at all). This may be expanded in future to include other types of loot.

:: Factions

A new faction system through the optional Natural Selection plugin ensures you're not always the center of the universe -- creatures and NPCs have foes they might consider more dangerous than you, and act accordingly.

Additionally a special No Attack faction protects Scavengers, their pets, and optionally traders (with the Tougher Traders) plugin from being attacked, without the need to mark them Essential (and thus prevent the player from killing them). It's also used for special creatures in the mod, such as the passive Wasteland Scorpion and Corpse Flies being largely ignored in favour of bigger threats.

:: Behaviour AI

Why is it that most creatures and NPCs seem to be hostile, despite the fact that in order to survive a creature or NPC still needs to pick its fights (otherwise, how did it last this long?)

Changes to wildlife on a creature-by-creature basis reflect that not all MoleRats are suicidal, and even a Vicious Dog can have the sense to avoid a fight it's got no chance of winning. NPCs, as well, can have a greater sense of self- preservation but to a lesser degree than creatures and, as with size and stat scaling, the chances are randomised based off their base value -- so Raiders are more likely to turn tail and run than Outcast for example.

:: Diverse Creature Skins

Most creatures in Fallout 3 have only a single texture, making every creature a clone of the next. Diverse Creature Skins provides a range of texture variants for each and every creature, so when you encounter a pack of rabid, yet slightly cute, MoleRats they all look a little different. This is one of those features that sounds simple but makes a huge impact in-game.

These are some of the creatues and the number of variants in the mod:

3 Brahmin
3 Radroach
3 Deathclaw
3 Deathclaw Baby
3 Deathclaw Matriarch
3 Giant Ant
3 Floater
3 Wanamingo
3 Vicious Pup
4 Vicious Dog
4 Mirelurk
4 Yao Guai
4 BloatFly
4 FireFly
5 Molerat
5 Molerat Young
5 Centaur
5 RadScorpion
9 Geckos
84 Feral Ghoul
104 Supermutant

:: Diverse NPCs

Just like Diverse Creature Skins, the NPCs in the game also get some treatment. Mostly, and for the moment, this focuses on Raider diversity and includes 100 Raider variants all with new unique faces, hair, etc. Additionally, there are 12 variable tattoos styles which are mixed and matched across 28 different race variations.

The result is a much wider scope of Raider appearance you will encouter in the game, and greatly fleshes them out as a faction in the Wasteland.

:: New Loot

Geckos, Vicious Dogs, Vicious Pups, Molerats, Mirelurks, Ants, Yao Guai and Radscorpions all now have extra loot apart from their meat -- fur for the dogs, teeth for the Molerats, claws for the Mirelurks, antennae for the Ants, eyes for the Yao Guai and stingers for the Radscorpions.

Fur from the Vicious Dogs and Vicious Pups can be sold, with the Pup fur being lighter and more valuable. Like meat on creatures, fur is size-scaled and larger animals yield more. Likewise for the Geckos, larger creatures yield more skin in addition to meat, and the Fire Gecko skin is the most valuable of all.

For creatures like Mirelurks, Ants, Radocorpions, Molerats, and Yao Guai the number of extra loot you get will range from 0-2 randomly for each creature (i.e 2 claws, or 1 antennae, etc).

The Deathclaw loot deserves special mention -- as one of the toughest creature fights in the game, Deathclaws drop both new Deathclaw Meat and Deathclaw Blood. The meat is quite toxic, and not terribly valuable. The blood, however, can be consumed to distill the Deathcalw's Rage and provide the following benefits for one minute: +5 strength, +5 AP, -4 intelligence, +1 HP per second. It's also valuable, and can be sold.

As with other creatures, the larger the Deathclaw the more meat and blood you will be able to get. For more on loot see the Creatures & Loot section.

:: New Creatures & NPCs

What's an MMM without new creatures and NPCs? Just to start, the first release of MMM for Fallout 3 has:

::

Supermutant Gargantuan

::

Firelurk

Firelurk Saliva

::

Wasteland Scorpion

::

Wild Dog

::

Night Ghouls

::

Corpse Fly

::

Vicious Dog Pups

::

Young Mole Rats

::

Little Geckos

::

Golden Geckos

::

Fire Geckos

::

Deathclaw Matriach

::

Deathclaw Young

::

Floaters

::

Wanamingos

::

Fireflies

::

Ramblers

Between size scaling, stat scaling, behaviour and diverse skins every creature you meet is literally unique. See a group of Vicious Dogs? Each one looks different, has its own temperament, has its own size, moves at its own speed, has its own endurance and health, and its own strength and damage. Fighting in the wasteland will never be the same, every encounter is unique!

:: Other features

Night Ghouls that appear only at night, and are faster and stronger than normal Feral Ghouls
Wild Dogs and Wasteland Scorpions may appear at wasteland spawn points, and are generally passive
3% chance of a special Supermutant spawn with muties, which includes 8 variant Behemoths and the Supermutant Gargantuan
A whole range of new ingestible meats and unique loot for all creatures
Slightly reduced chance of Robots and Radscorps for wasteland spawn points
Evergreen Mills Behemoth replaced with Gargantuan (great in tandem with Increased Spawns)
Robots aren't included in stats/size/confidence scaling -- afterall, they are machines, produced identically off the production line
Corpse Flies may appear at corpses after a certain amount of time. They can be VATS targeted and killed, if you feel like some sharpshooting
GMSTs adjusted to extend corpse lifetime, the number of corpses before cleanup, and the number of actors able to be in combat at one time.
Special effects like the Gargantuan's demolishing strike, Glowing Ones and Robots may explode with force on death, Fireflies casting colourful light at night, Skeletons decayed from corpses after a time and much more...

::: Optional plugins :::
--------------------------

Naturally, MMMF3 comes with a range of plugins to add features or alter the operation of the mod. In this release you will find:

:: Increased Spawns

Both the Increased Spawns and Increased Increased Spawns modules enable the same functionality from the standalone MMMF3 - Increased Spawns mod you're probably already using.

If you currently use the standalone Increased Spawns the MMMF3 installation will overwrite this for you and replace it with the required module for MMMF3.

Increased Spawns adds 1-3 spawns per spawn point, while Increased Increased Spawns adds 2-5 per point. The feature is actually configurable, and you can set whatever range you want by editing either plugin and changing the MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMin and MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMax values.

Note: It is highly recommended to use a slower leveling mod while running Increased Spawns.

For more information on how the plugin works, see the README - Increased Spawns.txt file.

:: Zones Respawn

By default most areas, especially interiors, in Fallout 3 are marked as 'Never Resets' such that once you clear an area, it stays cleared. This module enables these areas to respawn, with the exception of areas which shouldn't, such as the Vaults and some areas related to the main quest line.

Note: This mod does not change or provide modules to change the amount of time before a cell 'resets', which defaults to 3 days. There are plenty of other mods to change this for you.

:: Feral Ghoul Rampage

For those zombie movie addicts, Feral Ghoul Rampage multiplies the volume of Feral Ghoul spanws by 5, on top of the result from Increased Spawns. So for example if you are using Increase Spanws instead of 1-3 Feral Ghouls you will see 5-15 at any Feral Ghoul Spawn point. If you load this with Increased Increased spawns, make sure you're packing nukes!

:: [ Wounding Effects ] -- in development

While crippling works quite well in Fallout 3, does it make sense that a SuperMutant near death is able to swing his nailboard as hard as when he first met you?

With wounding, pentalties are applied against certain statistics the more wounded they become -- badly wounded enemies will hit with less damage, aim less accurately, and move slower.

Bleeding effects will add spurting blood to wounded creatures and NPCs which starts midly and increases as they become more wounded.

:: Natural Selection

Author: ACE

While some factions behave as you would expect in Fallout 3, many others don't. Natural Selection ensures creatures and NPCs properly attack or ignore foes logically based on type, as well as ensure the PC isn't the centre of the universe -- tired of a dog thinking you're the most dangerous creature in the universe while a SuperMutant bears down on you both? Not anymore!

Thanks to ACE for working with me on this and creating the plugin.

:: Tougher Traders

By default MMMF3 will automatically protect Scavengers from being beat-up on by the local wildlife, while still enabling them to be killed by the player, and the same is true of Traders if you load this plugin. Traders were made optional for this protection so that you can use mods like Roadwarden where you play quests to protect Traders from attack. If you don't want Traders getting killed off mid-game, load this.

:: Hunting & Looting

The Wasteland is a dangerous place where resources are sparse -- so why do NPCs like Raiders kill a foe and just leave all that good loot lying around? With this plugin creatures & NPCs will loot the corpses of fallen foes, taking what they can. If you then kill them, you will find this loot on their corpse. This can include weapons, ammo, armour, food, and drugs.

This adds much more than a simple dynamic to the game. NPCs for example may pick up extra weapons to use as a backup, or find more stimpacks to heal themselves. When you find an NPC, he could well be using a weapon he looted from the corpse of a foe further down the road.

Note: In the Beta only NPCs are included. Additionally, in Fallout 3 currently (as I may be able to fudge this) NPCs only pickup weapon types they don't currently have. For example if they have a ranged weapon but no melee weapons, they may pickup a baseball bat but ignore a gun. They also can't pickup equipped items on corpses, a limitation carried over from Oblivion. For this reason you'll find grenades, food, drugs, etc looted more often than weapons and armor (maybe this a good thing we don't want to change, leaving you to get them).

:: 'No...' plugins

Various plugins to turn off MMM features. Usually these are provided for some new creatures, and features that may be more taxing (enabling lower-end users to disable them).

:: DLC Plugins

There is now a plugin for each DLC. There are too many changes to list, but the general gist is adding MMM features to the DLCs while providing compatibility where necessary. Note that the plugins for Anchroage and The Pitt are optional, but the plugins for Broken Steel and Point Lookout are required for proper compatibility.

::: Making your own MMMF3 plugins :::
----------------------------------------------

With the MMMF3 master file Mart's Mutant Mod.esm you can now do the following:

Create new plugins to add or modify content in MMMF3
Create compatibility or integration plugins for other mods, by building them with the MMMF3 master file

To add or change content simply load Mart's Mutant Mod.esm in the GECK, make your changes, and save as a new .esp.

To build a compatibilty or integration plugin, use FO3Edit to determine which records or fields you want to populate across to MMMF3 (or vise versa). You can then use FO3Edit to copy new records into a mod, or a new dependent plugin, and use either FO3Edit or the GECK to populate fields as required.

See me for more help if you're the author of a mod and want to provide MMMF3 integration as a core or optional plugin with your download.

::: Contributing to MMMF3 :::
----------------------------------

There's always room for more new creatures, skin variants, and features. As above you can make your own compatible plugins, and I'm happy to help you create them. Indeed, like Natural Selection, they can even be included as part of the core mod.

As always, credit is given for any work so if you want to be involved let me know!

::: Making use of the globals

MMMF3 is designed to be modularised from the ground up, and you may notice most (but not all, for functional reasons) of the optional plugins actually just toggle global variables in the main mod.

Here's an explanation of the global variables so you can further tailor the mod if the values used in the plugins aren't to your liking. Either edit these in the optional MMMF3 .esps, or create a new .esp by editing the globals from the MMMF3 master:

MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMin [1]
MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMax [0]
These control the minimum and maximum spawns to appear at spawn points. MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMin shouldn't be set to less than 1. Setting MMMzIncreasedSpawnsMax to 0 will disable Increased Spawns (the default). The plugins Increased Spawns.esp and Increased Increased Spawns.esp set these values to 1-3 and 2-5 respectively. For more information how the spawns percentages are distributed, see the README - Mart's Mutant Mod - Increased Spawns.txt file included in the mod.
MMMzBehemothChance [2]
Sets the chance for Behemoths and Gargantuans to appear randomly in the wasteland with Supermutant spawns. When this occurs there is a 1 in 5 chance of the spawn being a Gargantuan, otherwise it will be one of 8 different Behemoth variants. Note this setting is distinct from Increased Spawns, and works even if it isn't enabled.
MMMzSpecialEncounterChanceDay [15]
MMMzSpecialEncounterChanceNight [20]
Controls the chance for a special wasteland spawn. During the day this includes the passive Wild Dog and Wasteland Scorpion, at night this will spawn Fireflies and the far from passive Night Ghouls...
MMMzCorpseFlies [15]
This controls whether Corpse Flies can spawn around corpses after six hours, and then chances of this occuring. If set to -1, Corpse Flies will be disabled. The default is a 15 percent chance.
MMMzLooting [0]
Controls whether creatures & NPCs will loot corpses during and after a fight. Any value larger than 1 enables looting behaviour.
MMMzWounding [0]
Controls whether creatures & NPCs will suffer wounding penalties and visibly bleed the more damaged they become. Currently doesn't do anything, the Wounding Effects plugin is in development.
MMMzFeralGhoulMult [5]
Sets the multiplier value for the Feral Ghoul Rampage.esp plugin, which defaults to 5. Keep in mind this multiplier is applied against the result of the Increased Spawns value, so you'll see 5-15 Feral Ghouls when using Increased Spawns (1-3) and a crazy 15-25 when using Increased Increased Spawns (3-5). Set this higher if you're crazy!
MMMzFeralGhoulRaiseChance [50]
Sets the chance for Feral Ghouls to raise again if not properly killed (to prevent Feral Ghouls raising, ensure head or legs are dismembered). Note this applies only to increased spawns, so if 3 Feral Ghouls spawn from a point and you kill them, 2 of them have a 50% chance of raising. Raised Feral Ghouls have a fraction of their health left, have stats and abilities reflecting their wounds, and will not raise again when killed.
MMMzSkeletonDecay [85]
Sets whether corpses decay to skeletons. To keep it simple and efficient the effect works at cell resets -- bodies will become skeletons after one reset, and then the skeletons themselves will disappear at the next. A randomisation engine creates full body skeletons, part body skeletons, or combinations of body and limbs. Note: Requires the Zones Respawn plugin to be loaded as most cells don't reset in vanilla, and so you won't see skeletons appear.
MMMzDLCIncreasedSpawns [1]
Controls whether Increased Spawns applies to the DLCs independently of the main game. Has no effect if Increased Spawns isn't also enabled. Note: Increased Spawns is only applied to some DLCs and in areas where it makes sense, so you probably won't feel a need to disable it but the option is here none the less.
MMMzSizeScaling [1]
Disables the dynamic size scaling for NPCs and creatures. Size scaling has been corrected in RC 5.0 to be less extreme, but it can be disabled entirely with this global. Note: if you disable scaling in a current game, sizes will return to normal as cells reset and new spawns are spawned.
MMMzSpawnsChanceNone [0]
Sets the chance for no spawn to occur at exterior Wasteland spawn points only. The Reduced Wasteland Spawns plugin sets this to 12% by default. For those who feel the Wasteland gets a little too busy sometimes.
MMMzPlayerScaling [0]
Dynamic Player Scaling (DPS) gently increases the difficulty of your game by raising MMM options as you level. These include Increased Spawns, Feral Ghoul Raise, Behemoth Chance and Soft Unleveling. See the MMM ReadMe for more information.
MMMzSoftUnleveling [12]
Soft Unleveling allows creatures and NPCs higher than the player level to spawn, adding diversity and challenge to the game. Standard setting recommended. NOTE: requires Increased Spawns.
MMMzMenuSystemLoaded [0]
Enables the in-game Pipboy menu and sets globals accordingly so they can be stored in a savegame. This is set by the 'Mart's Mutant Mod -- Master Menu Module.esp' plugin. The menu incorporates most, but not all (due to their nature), MMM optional .esp plugins. This is the preferred way to configure MMM to your liking.

:: Does the Evergreen Gargantuan count towards the achievement?

Yes, all Behemoths and Gargantuans count towards the achievement. I made sure of it

:: The molerat repellant stick isn't exploding the molerat heads!

This is not MMM. You are using a mod that alters weapons that incorrectly modifies the stick.

:: After installing Broken Steel, Bael and his pals are missing.

This is not MMM. This is a bug with Broken Steel. Grab the 'Bring Back Bael' mod -- http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=6545

:: In the Project Purity mission to kill 14 Super Mutants and Centaurs, I've killed everthing I can find but there's still 2 missing?

This is MMM, kinda. It only affects some people and appears to be related to old savegame data and these particular spawn points. For now, the easiest solution is to disable MMM while completing this quest, then re-enable it afterwards.

:: After installing MMM my sixy body textures don't work on raiders and they look funny.

You need to install the MMM compatibility for body mods:
- For Type 3: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=11711
- For Exenem: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8693
- For Breezes: [if you have a link, send it to me]

:: Don't know whats causing it but whenever I load game theres a chance that monsters are standing next to me, even if I had just blasted every mob in sight before saving. What teh deal?

Unknown. Strange bugs in the vanilla game and some other mods have occured with followers appearing next to the player when they shouldn't, and it's possible there's a similar thing going on here. MMM specficially, however, doesn't add this 'feature'. It's an engine quirk.

:: Ants, especially those in springvale, are hard to hit outside of VATS and go all spastic when they die. What yo!

This is a known bug with vanilla, to mininise this MMM makes minimal changes to the ants (no dynamic scaling, health etc) but it still occurs. Use VATS or wide area explosives to target them.

:: I disabled XXX creature but I'm still seeing it in MMM. Gazah!

When you disable a creature to spawn, it will prevent any future spawns, but any current spawns of that creature running around in a cell will still be there until you kill them and/or the cell resets (if it's a cell that resets).

::: Mini-FAQ for RC6

::: Are the Abominable Mutants from the FEV mod, and do I still need to load that now if I'm using it?

Yes they are, and no you don't need to load it anymore, all variants are fully integrated and expanded upon in MMM RC6.

::: I use the STALKER mod, does it include all creatures and do I still need to load this with MMM RC6?

No it doesn't include all creatures, only those I thought would be closer to Fallout 3 lore. I may add a few more in future (just ran out of time this time). You can load the STALKER mod with MMM but it works by overwriting creature types to see them spawn, so you will lose other creatures from MMM. This is the reason I integrated it, because it's not just a simple matter of adding to lists. Ideally you shoudn't load STALKER with MMM, unless you really really want some of the other varieties not currently integrated.

I started a new game, not with this update but with 6.0 and at level 5 I already saw Enclave with an Enclave enforcer and I havent went far at all in the main quest (just got out of the vault). So am i supposed to be seeing the enclave with this mod so soon? Also, I dont know if this has been documented but when enemies die sometimes they turn into a bung of black squiggly lines and move all over the place like crazy, sometimes bouncing high in the air and moving at tremendous speeds.

You talk about BS DLC bug, which spawn enclaves too early in the game.
It was fixed in Unofficial patch and FWE

Just a quick question which I can't figure out from the readme:

I am running both FWE and all DLCs - do I have to use BOTH Mart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release.esp AND Mart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release + DLCs.esp, or just the latter one ?

You need both. Take a look at the size of this files

Ahaa, a new topic. I'll stick it here too.

Police-grade protectrons. Why are they Metro protectrons, office protectrons, and Dean Dewey police-grade? UF3P uncovered a much more fitting Metro Service decal set for the metro protectrons.

Also, do the exploding 'bots affect their salvagability in any way with Toaster's http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1119143-relz-robco-certified-v2/ mod? I didn't care for the exploding bots to begin with so I nixed the script ref on the explode token, but others who want to salvage may not be able to in that case.

As I remember, there was discussion about exploding protectrons, and Martigen promised to not remove any parts from robots, by pleads of us, humble junkers

But I was not able to check it for now, in MMM 61

» Sat Feb 19, 2011 1:04 pm

Glad this thread is back now, thanks for the update, Mart!

No worries

Also, I dont know if this has been documented but when enemies die sometimes they turn into a bung of black squiggly lines and move all over the place like crazy, sometimes bouncing high in the air and moving at tremendous speeds.

Not much I can do about that, engine quirk. Especially if using mods that alter ragdoll physics (MMM doesn't, btw), this can be exasperated.

Do the Ramblers make noise now when moving or before attacking? Those guys are scaring the hell outta me.

I looked into this. They actually have the same sound profile as Feral Ghouls, and if you listen carefully at Feral Ghouls you'll notice they have a soft walking soft and a loud thumping sound when they run (which, they normally are). The Ramblers are deliberately crippled so they move slow (thus 'Rambling') but it means they only make the soft walking sound. I've set them to a loud profile in 6.1 but I can't do much more without creating new sound entries for them, which I can do if people think it's a big enough issue. Otherwise, I kinda like they idea they can ramble on up to you in ninja mode

I am running both FWE and all DLCs - do I have to use BOTH Mart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release.esp AND Mart's Mutant Mod - FWE Master Release + DLCs.esp, or just the latter one ?

Yep both, as some people may not be using DLCs. (for anyone else reading, this is about the FOIP plugins).

Police-grade protectrons. Why are they Metro protectrons, office protectrons, and Dean Dewey police-grade? UF3P uncovered a much more fitting Metro Service decal set for the metro protectrons.

Yeah I saw those too in the GECK while adding the Protectron variants. Happy to replace the above with Metros, anyone else agree?

Also, do the exploding 'bots affect their salvagability in any way with Toaster's http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1119143-relz-robco-certified-v2/ mod? I didn't care for the exploding bots to begin with so I nixed the script ref on the explode token, but others who want to salvage may not be able to in that case.

No, that robots can explode after death (note this is a random chance, and with a variable timer for effect) has no bearing on their loot.

RC6.1 Sounds awesome

I'd like to ask how should I use this with Fook2 1.1?
May I use the FOIP patch that BAN made for 6.0?
http://www.fookunity.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4742

If not, will 6.1 glitch an ongoing FOOK2 1.1 + MMM RC6.0 + FOIP 6.0 game (so I just replace RC6.0 with RC6.1 and disable the FOIP's) ?

Disregard that, BAN already mad a patch for 6.1 :clap:
http://www.yourfook.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4848

On another note, I'd like to direct your attention towards these, IMHO the both seem a worthy addition to MMM:

[edit] just an idea: I think the Jury St. Tunnels (deeper part of the Jury St. Station) should not be respawn enabled, since it make Bryan Riggs mysteriously resurrect from the dead.

» Sat Feb 19, 2011 12:51 am

Well, the office 'bot and Dean Dewey don't need to be police-grade either. GenericOfficeProtectron is apparently S.W.A.T. grade, for instance.

UF3P put the Metro M decal on as well as all of the yellow decal set.

No, that robots can explode after death (note this is a random chance, and with a variable timer for effect) has no bearing on their loot.

It's not really loot, it's salvagability. I think that Robco Certified checks limb status and stuff for salvagability (IE: whether or not it says it's salvagable when you frob a dead 'bot)

» Sat Feb 19, 2011 4:00 am

Just in the process of upgrading and I notice the install script for the FOMOD still requires you to choose one of the two methods of configuring the mod (in-game menu or seperate modules). This doesn't allow an option for FWE users and results in extra files being installed regardless of which option you choose.

It also force installs Natural Selection, Tougher Traders and Zones Respawn regardless of whether you choose them or not.

» Sat Feb 19, 2011 10:44 am

On tougher traders... are the traders and guards supposed to run away at the slightest provocation? If something aggros on me in their vicinity, they freak out and run off. I looked at their normal and combat AI settings (including confidence) and nothing indicates that they'd have that propensity.

Thank you for the update

I noticed some problems.

1. The zMMMzIguanoliveDrop script attached to zMMMzIguanolive is overwritten by FOIP MMM-FWE patch and disappears.
2. When a live iguana is put into a container, CTD occurs.
