Description

Details
=======

I really liked the Cosmic knife when I saw it in Dead Money, and all the stuff you read about it in the game.

From the wiki:

"They could cut through bone like a knife through warm butter, and often cut straight through chopping boards during food preparation".

But once I got out of the Sierra Madre I saw that they were not even the best knives in the game, which to me they surely should have been.

But what really got me looking in the GECK though was when I got to the Vikki and Vance Casino in Primm after picking up ED-E again after it was sent there upon my entry to the Sierra Madre.

I went in to the casino and was attacked by Layla, and decided to check out a Cosmic knife super-heated attack on her.

It was at that point I saw what the special V.A.T.S. attack the Flambé Cut does, and that got me to thinking to see if the knife was on all the perks that it should be.

Well it was not, and that lead to this mod being created.


So what this mod does is this:


Adds the Cosmic Knife, Cosmic knife clean, and the Cosmic knife super-heated to the following Perks and lists:


Cowboy Perk: Cosmic Knife, Cosmic knife clean, and the Cosmic knife super-heated

Pyromaniac Perk: Cosmic knife super-heated, because of its special V.A.T.S. attack the Flambé Cut.

Hold Out Weapons: Cosmic Knife

Improved Holdout Weapons: Cosmic Knife, Cosmic knife clean, and the Cosmic knife super-heated

Weapons List Melee All: Added all Dead Money melee weapons to this list as they were not on it.

There is no Perk List for the Bloody Mess, Slayer, Super Slam and Melee Hacker challenge Perks like there is for a Player Selected Perks such as Shotgun Surgeon and the Cowboy Perks.

The game just checks to see if the weapon you are using is designated as a Melee Weapon and then applies the perk.

Which is why I added All of the Dead Money weapons to all the applicable lists that would allow all of those perks to be applied after you have selected them for use in your game.
