    VTAC REDUX IS NOW AVAILABLE.

    This mod is now in Legacy mode,
    please comment on the new page.


    Update v.9 became so big, and with so many changes, it warranted its own page.
    The new version includes everything from this one, and is easily upgraded to.
    Upgrade instructions are in the pinned in the posts section of the new page.


    Thank you to everyone for all the support, please enjoy the new version.

    Information Post:

    Regarding my REDUX mod and Dante's Vault-Tec Suit:
    Spoiler:  
    Show
    TLDR: Dante's mod Vault-Tec Suit and my REDUX version are two separate mods based on Dante's original mod Another Combat Armor, and after continued updates, ended up having different features and styles.

    Full story:
    My mod, Vault-Tec Armor REDUX, started as an add-on expansion pack made for Dante's original mod Another Combat Armor.

    Shortly after I first released my mod, someone reported both our mods, saying the rebreather mask was taken from Niero's CROSS Institute Tech-Mask pack, causing both of our mods to be hidden by Nexus staff. I was able to get permission from Niero to use their mask, and was able to have my mod unhidden. I'm not sure what happened with Dante and their original mod, but it unfortunately remained hidden, and still is now.

    Because of all this, Dante's mod was no longer available and people couldn't find it anymore, and I couldn't upload it, so I had to re-write and re-pack my mod completely to be standalone and no longer depend on the original.

    Now Dante has released their new versions of their armour set and mask, with new assets, and I kept updating mine based on the old version, so now it's two different mods based on their original Another Combat Armor.


    Classic High Heels & Outfit Studio:
    Spoiler:  
    Show
    If you are using BodySlide v5.6.0, it may momentarily freeze when viewing the bodysuits with the classic heels style in the preview window or loading them in Outfit Studio. It will eventually unfreeze if you wait, it takes less then a minute for my PC.

    This will only occur when you viewing the outfit piece, it will still build properly, and works properly in-game. Just don't open the preview window.

    I have left a bug report on the BodySlide page, hopefully its fixed in a future update.

    KNOWN WORK AROUND: Don't open the preview window while building the bodysuits. You can also rollback to BodySlide & Outfit studio 5.5.2., as it doesn't suffer from this issue. 


    Update v.4 "Clean Save" Instructions:
    Spoiler:  
    Show
    Please note: This is only needed if you've used v.4 or older and want to update to v.5 or newer. Not needed for new installs.
    - Remove all armour/outfit pieces from the player and companion inventories by either dropping them on the ground or placing in an empty container.
    - Make a new save and quit Fallout 4.
    - Uninstall previous version and original mod, install v.5 or newest version at the time. (The original version is no longer needed, but can be kept if so desired. Please be aware, it will no longer have the all the bug fixes or the new features added by the REDUX version.)
    - Load the save game made earlier, pick up outfit pieces from ground or container, recraft missing pieces at the chem bench under category "Vault-Tec Advanced Combat Armor".
    - Make a another new save and enjoy your game.


    BodySlide Conversion Permissions:
    Spoiler:  
    Show
    Feel free to use my BodySlide files as a base for your own conversion to another body type if you want. All I ask is that you please make sure to credit and endorse the original mods by Dantemk2, please credit me for my BodySlide files used, and have my mod here listed as a requirement.

    Also please do not ask for donations for the conversion and do not have a donation site/link on the conversion mod page itself.

    Enabling the option to gain Nexus DP's is allowed.

    I have a question: why did I decide to change the scarf to black, yet its actual color remains light blue? The alteration in color does not reflect any real change

      This is the page for the older version of VTAC.

      I cannot see if you have downloaded all the proper files for the new VTAC. Make sure you have the latest version of all the files, meaning both the main file and whichever BodySlides you use, as there was updates to both.

      Make sure to rebuild all the pieces in Outfit Studio after you download the update. Make sure no older files remain.

      If your issue persists, please comment on the new page here:

    just wondering if this works with fallout London

      I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work, it just adds crafting recipes and doesn't touch any vanilla records. If whatever reason the chem bench is different in FOLON, you can use SAM or the console to add the armour & equipment to your inventory.

      I would also suggest you use the new version of the mod:

    Stupid question, does this mod and your newer VATC mod work with the older version of FO4 before the NG update? I have recently downgraded FO4 back to the original original version before the Next Gen update

      Yup, works for both versions of the game, archives are saved in the older format to avoid issues. I am currently running on pre-NG with no problems.

      I also recommend you use the new version of the mod. You only need to new one installed, this older version isn't required:
      VTAC REDUX - Vault-Tec Advanced Combat-Armor and Suit


      And this tool can be very helpful when dealing with newly created mods:

      This is the old version of the mod, you should upgrade to the newest version.

      You can find it here: VTAC REDUX

      Make sure to download BOTH main files.

      That's a headset from Tactical Flashlights.

      They can be worn with the Exo helms equipped, allowing you have a spotlight while wearing the armour.

      The new VTAC REDUX is basically update v.9 of this mod here. So much was changed and added with v.9, that it warranted it's own page.
      The new version includes everything from this one, and is easily upgraded to.

      Upgrade instructions are in the pinned in the posts section on the new page, in the large info post. 👍

      I don't use MO2 for FO4, so my experience is limited, but you won't need both versions as the new one has the same esp name and file names.

      It's all written in the info post on the new page. Follow those steps and you'll have no problem.

    Not sure if this is a bug, or a failed download on my end, but the Duster Overcoat is a metallic chrome, with purple buttons and lines on the back.. Purple normally means missing texture, but I am not sure about the chrome..

      You need the NCR Outfit Pack installed, as the duster and it's textures are from there. 👍

    When using NMM to install Vault Tec Armor Redux v.8- BodySlides Atomic, an error message will appear and the installation will fail
    I have installed CBBE and Atomic Beauty.
    Has anyone encountered this problem before?

      CBBE and Atomic Beauty aren't compatible with each other, you have to use either one or the other

      I never used NMM, but I would suggest you try manually installing the mod.

      And as Michaelmtv1226 said, you can't use CBBE and AB at the same time. There's no harm in having both downloaded, as they are just BodySlide files, but you can only build one or the other.

      Compatibility


      - It's not compatible with any other body model.
      - It's not a CBBE mesh, but it's compatible with any CBBE textures.

      And regarding using NMM CE latest version, sometimes and very few times Fomod or standard can chrash very rare so either try again and if its only BS files manual download unzip and drag - drop to data folder.
