Its so dangerously stupid, it becomes completely lore-friendly, like the kinda thing a raider cobbles together.
What is it?
Vanilla assets edited to look like miniature vertibird wings and engines on your back - a different looking jetpack. It has a weight of 20 and small damage and energy resistance. Does not use a body slot. The plugin has ESL flag.
Requirements
Fallout 4 Script Extender, because of the script to attach rotating propeller blades on press/release of the jump button.
Where to find it?
Cambridge PD. It will re-spawn. It's not craftable, unless you know how to use FO4Edit - there is a constructible object inside the plugin(without material/perk requirements), you just have to add the armor to it.
Effects
- On jump button pressed - the propeller blades rotate faster, there's some glow(no illumination) and heat effects from the engines.
- On jump button released(idle state) - the blades keep rotating at lower speed. Same goes when you equip it.
- Increased jump height, reduced fall damage and slightly increased movement speed.
- One modification on the armor workbench, which requires Science 3 and reduces AP drain by half(it's not cumulative, just changes game settings to half of default vanilla value).
- Custom jetpack thrust sound, without affecting PA jetpack sound(v1.1).
- 8 decal options(v1.2) - under Paint on the armor bench: Atom Cats, Brotherhood of Steel, Gunners, Institute, Minutemen, RailRoad, Vault-Tec and Wolfenstein. They require Armorer 2 and no materials. Having a decal boosts Charisma with +1.
When you first equip the Vertipack, the propeller blades will be missing. Same goes if you are wearing the Vertipack and you've just exited a workbench. Pressing the jump button will make them appear.(Fixed)- The vertipack model is big so expect clipping here and there. It may get in the way of your 3rd person aiming.
- When you start the game and load a save, the rotating blades will become misaligned from the engines
and the jetpack thrust sound will be back to default one. This can be easily fixed by re-equipping the vertipack. I don't know if there's other, more permanent solution. (sound is fixed in v1.3, but the blades still get misaligned upon game start, sorry)
Recommended mods
Jetpack Animations - this mod will replace falling animations with something more stylish and suitable for jetpack flight. I used it while taking screenshots. Sadly it is no longer available.
