Fallout GigaPatch

Fallout Giga-Patch is a hefty pack of patches for Fallout Collaboration Project mods, which fixes bugs and rebalances the content to fit standards set by vanilla and DLCs.

• Tuned down all obscenely overpowered stuff (75% accuracy minigun, 12x better social apparel, +50% research boots for 20 cloth etc.)
  
• Changed items according to their flavour, creating alternatives to vanilla ones with slightly different application or a spacer tier versions of industrial weapons
  
• Rationalized all market values. No more cheap junk to sell for thousands or op guns to buy for pennies
  
• Swapped research requirements for stuff that was put in medieval tier but had stats better than industrial/spacer tier
  
• Added missing weapon tags and Ideology classes
  
• Changed apparel that takes all 3 layers to adequate number of layers
  
• Fixed wrong weapon offsets
  
• Added mechanics that were mentioned in descriptions but wasn't there. (e.g. Shock Sword desc reads "Causes EMP and burns." so now it really shocks and burns)
  
• Fixed missing sounds, integer errors and other misc stuff
  
• Plants are no longer simply better than vanilla ones - now they have a bit smaller yield and require more work, but are resistant to toxic fallout and blight
  
• Most descriptions were not touched, but I removed things like "XYZ can inflict 16 damage per hit in good condition", which was both immersion-breaking and untrue
  
• Changed any copy-paste skins into alternative versions of given weapon, with ups and downs fitting the description
  
• Fixed some laser weapons not dealing heat damage
  
• Unearthed items that missed XML completely
  
• Made unique weapons not appear in trading or on raiders. If you create only one, it will be truly unique. Also, made them have a positive beauty score
  
• Undid any uncalled changes these mods silently made to vanilla files

Below you can see the list of currently patched mods. You can use one, few or all, although I recommend subscribing to everything. I tweaked them to complement each other when possible and they fill the tech tree nicely, enhancing item progression.

Q: Is it safe to add or remove mid-game?
A: Yes.

Q: Why do I see yellow warnings about things that were supposed to be fixed?
A: They are fixed. The game informs you about errors in original files, which were later overwritten. That's due to the method of patching.

Q: Method of patching? Wait, these are not patches at all!
A1: Indeed. While usually it's a bad practice to overwrite defs to make fixes in someone's mod, we have a specific situation here. First of all, these mods are not maintained in their current state, so there are no new changes the overwrites could harm.

A2: But most importantly, Rick plans to rebuild these mods to use new FCP Framework. As a side effect, said framework will require people to start a new game. Rick also decided they will change some defnames along the process (which I am strongly against) and such changes simply break saves. So if/when this happens, don't panic. Give me a day or two and this workshop entry will be transformed into a legacy fork, with all fixes applied and old defnames restored. With FGP you'll be able to continue playing on your save.

Q: What about mods that are missing from the list?
A: I released this initial package to quickly fix the mods I use in my 600+ modlist, because they contain some really op stuff that needed to be tweaked asap (and I'd rather do that than just remove them). I will include more, although in a bit slower pace, as this was a lot of work already. If you know a FCP mod that needs tweaking to fit vanilla, make a comment and I'll get to it, 1 mod a day.

If you'd like to see a Fallout overhaul one day, consider supporting Fallout Collaboration Project. It's a very cool, ambitious project and they would appreciate help.
