Description:

Per request, I've released a small collection of 20 object palettes that I've developed over 18 months since the release of the GECK. I've used these palettes in the development of my mod (WIP), and include interior, exterior and general palettes. I've used these palettes in the development of my mod (WIP), and include large interior and exterior palettes. These palettes do not encompass every theme available in Fallout3 (some I couldn't release because they are too theme-specific), but will hopefully help fellow GECKinators in building your own mods. I provide a brief description of each palletes contents below:

Art - These pallettes contain posters, paintings, graffitti and stains.
Buildings - A collection of exterior buildings and building pieces of all varieties.
Clutter - Items of every variety to use when cluttering interior / exterior cells.
Computers - A palette of comptuer and terminal-specific objects.
Doors - Doors of every variety for use inside and out.
ExteriorRoadRubble - A pallete of exterior road, rubble and highway parts.
ExteriorGeneral - Exterior objects of many types for use when building exterior cells.
Factory - Factory pieces for building interior/exterior power stations.
Fences - An object pallete of fence-specific pieces.
Furniture - A large object palette of furnishings primarily focused on interior cells.
GroundLitter - A palette of paper debris and ground litter for messing up cells.
GunNut - A pallete of weapons, loose ammunition and ammo cans (this is not all of the weapons).
Hotel - Interior hotel parts based around the statesman hotel.
Lighting - A subset of the available lights and lighting fixtures for brightening a cell.
OfficeMetro - A large palette of Office and metro pieces for building interior cells.
PipeKit - A collection of different pipes and pieces for making pipelines.
PowerStation - A collection of interior and exterior pieces for making power stations.
ScaffoldKit - A complete set of the scaffold pieces from The Pitt
Sidewalks - A complete set of sidewalk pieces for building sidewalks.
UtilBay - A large palette of utility bay pieces from the Anchorage War Memorial cells.

I am always changing and evolving some of these over time, but some are almost a year old now. Most of the palettes have been modified and updated for this release to remove custom items or problems. There are 20 other palettes that I'll release with the mod, so this should be considered a "first draft".


Installation Notes:


1. Decompressing the palettes into the Fallout3/OPAL directory will make them available to you in the GECK.

2. All 5 of the DLCs are incorporated into these palettes in the default order (Fallout3.esm, Anchorage, Pitt, Broken Steel, Point Lookout and Zeta). If you do not have some of the DLCs, the palettes for DLC items may or may not work correctly - in which case the palette will work but you'll see a "NONE" for the item. All Fallout3.esm objects will work normally.

I would welcome all feedback and input on how I can improve these (most especially if I screwed up the release somehow!)

Cheers!
