Details
=======

** Update 2/14/10 ** v. 0.5
- Added skullcaps to raiders hat and wastelanders leveled lists as well as various vendors.
- Added 20 texture varieties
- Released to the public.

Known Issues/Bugs or Notes
==========================

- Note: Don't expect to find the skullcaps everywhere. In my playtesting I spent about 2 hours before one showed up on a raider.
Though you may find them in some vendors. They may or may not show up as they have a 5 percent chance of turning up none.
If you do find one on a vendor, you'll probably see no more than 2, maybe 3. It'll be chance on which variety of skullcaps show.

- Issue: If given to companions, the caps may not show up right away. Just go back into their inventory and exit. Their body will update correctly then.

Incompatibility
===============

-None as I used a script to add them to the various leveled lists and containers.

Credits
=======

-People who created those wonderful Modding Tools/Applications. Thank you.

Licensing/Legal

This is for the community, all I ask is if anyone uses this in a release mod, I receive a courtesy credit. Thanks

LOL, funny you should mention that. He's exactly who I had in mind when I did this.

Right now, no attributes. Just purely cosmetic. Though in the Vanilla game I did see
some headbands with +1 to some stats. I could make some maybe do a +1 or -1 to Chr depending
on which one the player wears. Like you may be less approachable with a crossbones than say with
one of the flags. (shrugs) It's really all subjective though.

so far after an hour, I found the Yellow (merchant), Green (raider), and Confederate (raider) SkullCaps.
no problems with my vanilla or modded followers wearing them. gave you a vote for mod of the month
on nexus. :thumbsup:

Thanks, yeah it really shouldn't conflict with anything as I put them into lists and containers via scripts. If anyone adds or removes things to the lists or containers, so long
as the actual name of the Ref container and/or list doesn't change, the caps will get added to them. Nothing is actually placed to avoid conflicts.
Playing I found some on traveling vendors and more on raiders. Pretty cool seeing someone with a gun and crossbones cap. I stop and think. Yeah I made that. lol
Anyhow, glad you're enjoying the mod.

PS, yes, keeping it at the bottom of the Fomm list will ensure that the script to add them get's run after any mods have made any modification to any of the lists/containers.

I llike these, it's always great to have more variety in apparel, especially leveled list variety.

I think it would be safer to put them into the lists instead of adding them via script. If it's anything like NPCs and other actors, the act of altering the leveled lists in question makes them part of the gamesave and thus make any changes via plugins not work since gamesave data loads last in the load order. Removing this mod will also result in a null entry in the list.

I think it'd be safest to add them to the leveled lists you want them in, and then putting in the notice that FO3Edit list merging may be needed, because the only way to undo changes in a save is to load an earlier one before the change.

Ah, noted. Thanks.

Will a 'Create Merge Patch' in FO3Edit merge all leveled lists automatically? Or would the person need to check each mod to see what get's overwritten then merge the lists manually?

** Update 2/22/10 ** v. 0.5.1
- Changed how skullcaps were added to fix an issue if one were to uninstall this mod. *(See notes below)
- Added the need to create a merge patch for extra compatibility.

- Note: If upgrading to 0.5.1, the only way to correct a potential uninstall issue is to start a game PRIOR to running 0.5
else this hotfix is useless. For new users, just using the 0.5.1 version after installing 0.5 will be fine.
