Fallout 3 - T51B Armor Classic BoS Armor mod

Swaps the armor model of default BoS power armor with the more familiar

T-51B variant from Fallout 1-2.

INSTALLATION

1: Extract the data folder into your \Fallout3 folder.

2: If this is the only texture mod you are using, then extract the "ArchiveInvalidation.txt" into your Fallout3 folder. (NOT THE DATA FOLDER!) If not, then you should already have one in your FO3 folder and you only need to add the following lines to it:

textures/armor/t-51bpowerarmor/t-51b powerarmor.dds

textures/armor/powerarmor/powerarmorbodyoutcast.dds

textures/armor/powerarmor/powerarmorbodyoutcast_n.dds

textures/armor/bosunderarmor/outfitm.dds

textures/armor/bosunderarmor/outfitf.dds

textures/armor/headgear/bosunderarmorhelmet.dds

3: Open the ini files and alter the "bInvalidateOlderFiles=0" line to "bInvalidateOlderFiles=1".

ISSUES

- There are two gas canisters on the back of the power armor. Not really a problem, as it still look like an integral part of the suit, but still a bug non the less.

- The outcasts' helmet has a wrong texture, and until I find/create the correct dds texture file for the T-51B helmet, I'm afraid it will remain like this.

- Also the outcasts' left glove has the old green color instead of dark.

- I haven't tested the medic and the Lyonn armor, they remain to be seen.

VERSION HISTORY

Initial release.

V0.6

Added the BoS decal to the BoS armor.

Altered the Outcast armor so the texture is not messed up any more.

Added the Outcast decal to the Outcast armor.

v0.7

Altered the Outcast armor to have more subtle coloring. The difference is still noticable, but not as prominent as it was.

v0.75

Made the decals look more worn and faded to reflect the years of use.

Ditched the "dark redish" concept of the Outcast armor and went with a black approach.

v0.76

Included the correct normal-map for the Outcast armor. Don't forget to update the invalidation txt.

v0.8

Altered the Recon armor to have a blue coloring instead of the default brown to match the blue suit usually worn underneath the T-51B power armor.
