Description
=====================
Major overhaul of the Lucky 38 suite.
This suite takes one complete level of the Lucky 38 tower and it is now possible to see the sky from the windows all over the place.
Original Mod; Russian Translation (Not Nexus): http://falcon-lair.com/files/file/393-pererabotannyi-liuks-laki-38-lucky-38-suite-reloaded/
Items Sorter (2.00)
Featuring models from DantheGeek, the suite includes a broad-range item sorter.
Storage / Sorter :
- Weapons display
- Ammo storage shelves
- Ammo components Storage shelves
- Armors lockers
- Misc items container
- Food fridge
- Beverage fridge
- Bookshelves
- Armor Mannequins
Please note that corresponding storage areas have to be bought before use. You can find them in the upgrade store.
Features
=====================
Armory
The suite features an armory to display the Courier's proud collection of weapons and ammunition.
Infirmary
The suite contains it's own infirmary, including:
- MK1 AutoDoc - From facial surgery to a simple haircuit.
- Med Storage Shelves
- Recovery Chamber - To completely heal your character of all the damage caused by the Mojave.
Laboratory
The laboratory is a large section of the suite, which can be customized and upgraded through the terminal system.
Alfred
One of the most distinctive aspects of the suite is your personal robot servant, Alfred.
Programmed by KospY, who was inspired by an idea from Gnubee, Alfred will sort your items and serve you in the suite. As well as being able to find him by the door, several intercoms are placed around the suite, so he can come to you.
Performance Optimization (New 3.00)
By adjusting lighting and environmental variables and by removing old unnecessary scripts, I have been able to optimize the suite's performance in comparison to Version 2.
Aesthetics
Aesthetically, the suite remains virtually identical to Version 2.00, however both lighting and ambient adjustments have been made to remove the 'creepy, annoying' ambiance from v2.00 and improve the overall feel of the suite.
The Lucky 38 Suite System
Each room in the suite can be upgraded and customized, using terminals in certain rooms. Since Version 2.00, I have made many changes to this system, with the following:
- New radio station controller
- New items
- A text adventure game has been added
- Jane and Marilyn can be summoned to the suite via telephone
Teleporter
The Lucky 38 teleport device rids the need of traversing through the strip and into the Lucky 38. However, one must obtain the schematics for this device, and have a science skill of 50 to use it at full power.
With the Teleport Device you can :
- Teleport yourself back to the suite.
- Set 3 custom locations
To use it :
- Activate it via the pipboy and close your pip boy revealing a menu.
- Activate it via a preset hotkey,
Please note that the teleporter device needs energy to be used.
For now, the best source of energy is fission battery, which is required before use.
The Teleport Device can be used 4 times before the fission battery runs out. You can recharge it in the fission battery charger near the teleporter (you have to buy it first).
Fission battery Charger
Using this, drained fission batteries can be replenished for use. Since version 2.00, I have optimized the code behind the system, making it far more reliable.
Balcony
The suite now features a purchasable balcony, looking over the New Vegas Strip. This includes a fridge, grill, sunbeds and beverages! Companion friendly and compatible with NVR!
Water Purifier
You can now purify your water in the kitchen by boiling it. (Yes, I know boiling won't rid the deadly nuclear waste from your water) This is a very simple feature, please use your imagination. :)
Working Fireplace
You can now feel more at-home with a working fireplace!
Ice Cold Nuka Cola Fridge
Ice Cold Nuka Cola Fridges are purchasable through the Lucky 38 upgrade system. Put your Nuka Cola in and watch Ice Cold Nuka Cola come out.
Radio Station Controller
This allows you to flick between Mojave Music Radio and Radio New Vegas at a click of a button. (Possibility of introducing Wave Radio in the future)
Washing Machine
Thanks to the suite's washing machine, the courier is able to wash dirty clothes which they may have in their inventory. Keep it clean.
Magazine Bookshelf
Always hated that inability to display your collection of comics, magazines and books? No problem, the suite now incorporates a fully functional bookshelf in the master bedroom.
VR Pod
The highlight of Version 3's update is the creating of a working VR Pod. This can be purchased via the terminal for 1000 caps, and has three software programs that can be loaded:
- Stealth Simulator
- Close-Quarters Combat Simulator
- Shooting Range
The pod is still a prototype and is still experimental. If anyone has any bugs, or any ideas for it, please let me know via the comments or private message.
There is plenty more to discover...
