- BUGFIX: Added Legion ear script to a handful of Legion NPCs who were missing it.
- BUGFIX: removed Legionaries at Mountain Shadows Camp Ground from general Legion enable parent, to make doubly sure they despawn as intended + as ground work for an upcoming revision to the encounter
- BUGFIX: Removed one Khan Pusher from the Great Khan enable parent, which I could've sworn I did - but didn't - thus forgoing a script error.
- BUGFIX: commented out two leftover console prints I overlooked.
- BUGFIX: Removed enable parent from a trigger box pertaining to a scripted Fiend attack outside of Westside.
- BUGFIX: Took care of 2 typos in a note.
- BUGFIX: Took care of a script loop in TLDQuestScript.

- CHANGED: The Van Graff hit squad members should now behave more aggressively, as intended.
- CHANGED: Removed a feral NCR Trooper ghoul near Coyote Mines who was left over from when TLD used to edit that location.
- CHANGED: Also removed some leftover concealed frag mines from Coyote Mines.
- CHANGED: The NCR Prospector encounter near Nipton is now a reactive event occuring in scenarios where the BoS ended their lockdown but did not yet forge an alliance with NCR. It despawns again if an alliance is forged.
-

- BUGFIX: Fixed a wall lean marker in Primm that was too far off from the wall.

- BUGFIX: Fixed script loop relating to Legion ambush after RS Charlie was destroyed.
- BUGFIX: Fixed an edge case where the Jacobstown mutant patrol could spawn right back in after being disabled following Marcus' death.
- CHANGED: Renamed "iLessCivilians" .ini option to "iFewerCivilians" because this agrammatical name's been bugging the hell out of me for years.
- CHANGED: Also renamed "iNoYaoGuais" to "iNoYaoGuai" for similar reasons.

- CHANGED: Removed Fiend boss' name.

- CHANGED: TLD's Viper spawns now draw from a larger pool of appearances.
- CHANGED: Revised the quest script for greater cleanliness and efficiency. Shouldn't affect your experience, unless I accidentally introduced new bugs in doing so.

- NEW: Re-added the "Mojave's Most Wanted" .ini setting, setting all hit squads after you at once.
- NEW: After concluding Old World Blues and passing all X8 tests, friendly Cyber dogs will appear in various population hubs throughout the Mojave to protect the locals.
- NEW: Conversely, if you finish the DLC without passing all X8 tests, frenzied Cyber dogs may be encountered randomly throughout the desert.
- NEW: Some NCR patrols now have a day-night cycle.
- NEW: Some Legion patrols now have a day-night cycle.
- NEW: All Viper patrols now have a day-night cycle.
- NEW: Added a scripted event to the deserters' camp in the northwestern map - you'll come upon it being raided by NCR Military Police officers.
- NEW: Added a Jackal gang patrol to the north Vegas area.
- NEW: Added a scripted Fiend attack to Underpass.
- NEW: Added a scripted Fiend attack to El Rey gas station.
- NEW: Added a scripted Jackal attack to a north Vegas farm.
- NEW: Added a scripted reinforcement event to the Viper camp south of Novac.
- NEW: Upon first visiting Powder Ganger Camp East, you'll witness a Jackal Gang Raid.
- NEW: a boss-type Freeside thug ambush will occur in one of multiple possible spots in town if you have a very high reputation in Freeside (since you're messing with their business), taking the place of a hit squad that was removed a few updates ago.
-
Version 2.6
- BUGFIX: fixed bug some users were experiencing where the Repconn rockets would crash in the northern map even if you fixed their flight data.
- BUGFIX: regenerated facegen using MorningSpice's 'Mostly Fixed Facegen Tinsts', removing weird discolorations from a range of characters.
- BUGFIX: fixed a bug where being idolized in Freeside would stop hit squads from spawning in.
- BUGFIX: fixed NCR Heavy Troopers having combat armors from the start.
- BUGFIX: fixed Khan chem dealers having medical supplies from the start and losing them after Aba Daba Honeymoon when the opposite was intended
- BUGFIX: non-respawning dead NCR Deserters now disappear like they're supposed to.
- BUGFIX: resolved issue where one of the NCR patrols around Sharecropper farm wouldn't despawn in some ending scenarios.
- BUGFIX: NCR Sergeant in Camp McCarran should now always despawn after all non-NCR endings.
- BUGFIX: fixed Great Khan chem dealers being mute.
- BUGFIX: fixed a furniture placement bug in front of the Dino Delite that would sometimes cause one of the Novac Prospectors to spaz out and die.
- BUGFIX: resolved some oddities that would occur around Mojave Outpost after the Long 15 has been nuked.
- BUGFIX: removed a ragdoll data error from a scripted event related to 'There Stands the Grass'

- BUGFIX: fixed blue light in Haggling Harry's Stop & Shop not being linked to enable parent.
- BUGFIX: got rid of leftover underwater fence near Fisherman's shack; reverted some wild edits on nearby Lakelurks
- CHANGED: Primm's hit squad is now only triggered if you kill the Nashs.
- CHANGED: overhauled and fixed a number of levelled lists based on Sweet6Shooter's work & proposals; more NPCs now level with you & no longer use static sets of weapon and armor
- CHANGED: Khan chem pushers now always sell you drugs rather than when you're like with them. They'll offer you a discount if you are at least accepted. Conversely, they'll attack you if you try to engage them while vilified with the Khans.
- CHANGED: combined all 6 FPGE scripts into a single one, allowing me to delete 6 redundant quests from the mod, cutting down on bloat and performance cost.
- CHANGED: edited script delay on all quests so they run faster
- CHANGED: short circuited a number of scripts with 'if eval' functions, possibly improving performance.
- CHANGED: Converted voice files to .OGGs. Apparently this can improve performance.
- CHANGED: hit squads are now despawned if the feature is disabled via .ini even if they've already spawned in the world previously.
- CHANGED: TLD's dogs will now no longer walk in a straight line behind their handler but instead move freely within a fixed radius around them, leading to a significantly more natural appearance.
- CHANGED: all non-robotic Follower-type NPCs are now set to wander about the close vicinity if their caravan/patrol leader was killed rather than standing around in a line like broken androids.
- CHANGED: set two Prospectors to use 'accompany' packages rather than 'follow' packages, making their travel groups seem less like military formations.
- CHANGED: removed offscreen speed bost from hit squads.
- CHANGED: Aurelius' corpse is now teleported to a dummy cell if Cottonwood Cove was irradiated, sidestepping some soft incompatibilities with other mods affecting his enable flag.
- CHANGED: gave Turret at NCR-occupied El Dorado gas station a slight DT boost.
- CHANGED: beds in Haggling Harry's Stop and Shop are now marked as owned
- CHANGED: removed all edits to Coyote Mines, because that stuff simply didn't belong in this mod. This encounter serves as the basis for a dedicated side quest in my upcoming quest mod "Westside Story - A New Vegas Noir".
- CHANGED: Slightly moved some NPCs out of the way to avoid a conflict with 'The North Road'
- CHANGED: removed a somewhat cringe line of dialogue from Westside's Khan chem dealer, edited another line into something more characteristic.
- CHANGED: removed two generic wandering Prospectors

- NEW: added broken Securitron to Hidden Valley bunker to reflect Mr. House's dialogue about his bots disappearing around the area.
-
Version 2.5
- BUGFIX: BoS Safehouse map marker no longer gets disabled after the Brotherhood Remnants are wiped out.
- BUGFIX: BoS Safehouse no longer gets renamed while Sato is still alive.
- BUGFIX: FPGE-related map marker checks are only checked for if FPGE is installed
- BUGFIX: master file requirements are in correct order again.
- BUGFIX: reactive inventory changes are now implemented via global variables, as the previous method would allow the levelled lists to reset to their default state.
- BUGFX: fixed spelling error in Coyote Mine interaction textbox. Next I'll fix this whole encounter by removing it wholesale.
- BUGFIX: added AI Packages to Securitrons at Switching Station
- BUGFIX: fixed two Legion soldiers who wouldn't despawn in non-Legion endings.
- BUGFIX: hitsquads now have a script that immediately teleports them out of interiors if they spawn inside despite all other safeguards.
- BUGFIX: hitsquads should now no longer follow you into the D.C. wasteland.
- BUGFIX: fixed five issues that would cause error messages.
- BUGFIX: fixed campfire sounds playing in Underpass even while the town is set to be disabled in the .ini
- BUGFIX: fixed a misspelled name by removing an erroneous dash in-between the words "Super" and "Mutant" (you'll never guess which generic creatures in particular were affected by this)
- BUGFIX: fixed dead dog in Westside sometimes spawning outside of the truck trailer.
- BUGFIX: Fixed table in BoS outpost being misalligned with workbench animation marker.
- CHANGED: Novac's townspeople and "visitors", such as prospectors and some wanderers will now aid each other in combat.
- CHANGED: Massive balance pass - merchants have less caps and goods, item and armor levelled lists have generally been debuffed insofar as expensive and powerful weaponry is rarer and spawns later in the game.
- CHANGED: Removed console print.
- CHANGED: Gave nearly all notes another writing pass to match a higher standard and do some subtle groundwork for my upcoming quest mod.
- CHANGED: Gun Runner Guards are now set to sandbox if their leader was killed. Naturally, they don't actually do what their AI package tells 'em, but I'll leave this feature in anyway and will take another look in the future.
- CHANGED: Hanged Troopers around Fiend territory now despawn after the gang's leaders have been taken out.
- CHANGED: Removed barriers surrounding northern switching station post Securitron MKII update, as they were visually distracting and causing pathfinding issues.
- CHANGED: Fiend Underbosses now also carry melee weapons, since they were basically defenseless in close combat before.
- CHANGED: Tweaked lights around BoS Outpost
- CHANGED: Temporarily removed Freeside Thug hitsquad, as they were annoying to deal with. WIll revamp this encounter in the future.
- CHANGED: Powder Gangers and Legion are now hostile to hitsquads by default.
- CHANGED: Removed all navmesh edits for the sake of compatibility.
- CHANGED: rebalanced the power armored NCR Prospector encounter near Nipton. The armor is now only at 1% condition, making it nearly useless. Both NPCs are much tougher now, and killing them gains you NCR infamy again. On the flipside, there is now a little more loot and environmental detail. May change more about this come the next version.
- CHANGED: Novac's generic prospectors now have unique appearances.
- NEW: Quest consequences for 'Come Fly With Me' :
- If you sabotage the rockets, the test site will become radioactive. After leaving Novac for a few days, some feral ghouls will attack the town. Some non-respawning ghoulified prospectors will spawn on the test site.
- If you kill the ghouls or succesfully launch the rockets, Novac's Prospectors will loot the site during the day , fending of the remaining feral population in the process. The Junk Merchant will also spawn in.
- If you don't correct the rockets' course on the launch pad terminal, you'll find them crashed across the northern edge of the map, with a handful of survivors in need of saving. Credits for the crashed rocket asset go to PineAppleSurprise's Vehicle Resources mod. - NEW: If you irradiate Cottonwood Cove, the entire area from the southern riverbank to Coyote Mines becomes overrun with Legion Ghouls. Additionally, Aurelius will return as a miniboss unless you killed him some other way. Currently they're set up not to respawn, so you can clear them out if you wish to do so. For some extra fun I recommend waiting for a leftover Legion patrol or caravan to attempt passing through the camp. All credit for the new ghoul models goes to CarlZee's "Feral Ghoul Armor and Outfit Pack"
- NEW: Added a reloading bench to the NCR's presence at El Rey.
- NEW: BoS-House truce mods are now natively supported.
-
Version 2.3
- BUGFIX: Fixed or removed all bathtub water. Previously the refraction and reflection settings were missing from it.
- BUGFIX: Fixed bug with the H&H Tools Ambush event, as well as placing the trigger differently so players don't just get jumped immediately after leaving the factory.
- BUGFIX: Fixed some NCR Troopers and Sharecroppers remaining at Sharecropper farm after House ending. Also fixed related potential script loop.
- BUGFIX: Removed remnant shelf and plates from the LOOOOONG-ago removed Follower's Farm.
- BUGFIX: Removed dam war face mask from Khan Pusher due to it clipping into her eyepatch.
- CHANGED: Removed now-redundant hotfix from TLD's control quest. This was implemented as a temporary measure in v2.0.
- CHANGED: You can now tip over the Brahmin at El Rey. 10/10 this whole mod.
- CHANGED: FPGE-related quests now only run if FPGE is actually loaded. This also ensures compatibility with FPGEL. Thanks to AVeryUncreativeUsername for bullying me into including this.
- CHANGED: Freeside Thugs now chase you down for having a very positive rep in Freeside rather than the other way around, since helping the community would cut into their business.
- CHANGED: Reduced Fiend population by 8 in total, since in combination with Mojave Raiders or similar mods it'd get kind of silly how many of them there were, also wrecking performance on weaker systems.
- CHANGED: Removed GetQuestCompleted check that was left over still. Thanks to AVUUN for pointing that one out.
- CHANGED: Slightly changed the script in regards to the Brotherhood Alliance.
- CHANGED: Underpass Brahmin and gore tub are now back at their original position. Their presence is dependent on the Underpass Disabler .ini setting.
- CHANGED: Decompressed NPC records again. Forgot to last time.
- NEW: After completing Debt Collector and leaving the Wrangler, McCafferty's hat will appear as a wall trophy, like Francine Garrett mentioned. Unless you kill her before then, for some reason.
- NEW: Map Marker Reputation of locations affected/added by TLD is now reactive to takeovers and story event. All credits for that one go to AVeryUncreativeUsername whose script, which was originally intended for one of his mods, was only slightly modified by me and pasted straight into TLD.
- CHANGED: Levelled lists now match a max level of 50 rather than 30. This should space out the appearance of powerful and expensive items and is the first step of a larger balance pass. JSawyer users may wanna build a patch or adjust the levels manually in Xedit.
- REMOVED: Cut out the entirety of Fisherman's Shack, because it's a bad and embarrassing remnant of a time when the whole mod was bad and embarrassing. Might remake that one to a higher standard (such as it being good, for example) in Westside Story.)
- REMOVED: A now-superfluous dialogue quest. Moved all dialogue into a single quest instead, because there is no reason not to.
-
Version 2.2
- BUGFIX: Put Wastelanders at Pylon Camp into a separate faction so they don't attack the Strange Man during Birds Of A Feather (note: untested but ought to work.)
- BUGFIX: Put in extra line of script to 100% ensure the NCR caravan at the Sharecropper Farms despawns in any non-NCR ending, independently of Hard Luck Blues. (note: untested but ought to work.)
- BUGFIX: Set Silver Rush Sign on top of Von Graf's Lazr Gunz to be initially disabled, eliminating a visual bug that would occur when re-generating LOD.
- BUGFIX: Commented out some leftover console prints.
- BUGFIX: Hooked smoke at California Sunset Drive-In up with its campfire's enable parent.
- BUGFIX: Added DT to Tunneler Queen. Reported by LedZepIv
- BUGFIX: Deleted leftover matress in Underpass Trailer. Wow, can't believe I never noticed this.
- BUGFIX: Fixed one Prospector near Crimson Caravans not being linked to the correct enable parent.
- BUGFIX: Fixed/completed Happy Trails Caravan route which appears to have been broken despite me insisting on the contrary for all these years - oops!
- CHANGED: Vigilantes are now in a faction of their own, leading to more sensible faction reactions. First proposed by Reaper.
- CHANGED: All Wasteland Securitrons now help Friends and Allies.
- CHANGED: Wasteland Securitrons will now aid the player in combat if they completed the MKII update. First proposed by AVeryUncreativeUsername.
- CHANGED: Replaced GetReputation checks in hitsquad control script with GetReputationTresholds checks, ensuring they will no longer chase after you just for minor infamy. Proposed by ryanmar.
- CHANGED: Followed FPGE's example and removed needless edit to Wasteland water type.
- CHANGED: .ini has been re-structured, as per AVeryUncreativeUsername's suggestion.
- CHANGED: The Underpass Disabler option in the .ini is now enabled by default. Switch it off if you wish to have the settlement in your game still.
- NEW: Made Westside's Population Boost customizable in the .ini
- REMOVED: Removed edits to "Unfriendly Persuasions" to continue TLD's push away from direct edits to vanilla NPCs and quests. The standalone mod will soon become available again.
-
Version 2.1
- NEW: Implemented an INI for players to adjust their games with. All optional files are now obsolete and incompatible, please remove them from your files if still present.
- BUGFIX: Fixed Syntax error that could occur and potentially lead to slowdowns if the player had any hitsquads after them. Special thanks to c6, karut and Xilandro for their aid in finding and fixing this issue quickly. No thanks at all to the entitled weirdo who called me a nazi in the DMs for doing so. How embarrassing!
- BUGFIX: Fixed NCR Propaganda appearing at Primm even if Meyers or Primm Slimm were made sheriff. Implemented script to clean all that back up again if this bug occured for you.
- BUGFIX: Fixed beds at Novac gas station appearing prematurely.
- BUGFIX: Fixed hitsquads no longer pursuing player if all 16 of them were activated normally.
- CHANGED: Manually disabled all junk wall pieces around switching station north of Vegas. This may help during LOD generation.
- CHANGED: More generic NPCs now don't spawn in until level 8. This to make the "less civilians" ini option more attractive.
- CHANGED: A number of small details, fixes, etc. that are mostly unnoticable while playing, but still improve the mod's overall quality.
-
Version 2.0
- BUGFIX (FPGE): Fixed NCR MP at Camp Golf not disappearing after non-NCR endings
- BUGFIX: Fixed Underpass campfire smoke not being tied to enable parent
- BUGFIX: Fixed floating idle marker in Underpass
- BUGFIX: Fixed typo in Murphy's Log
- BUGFIX: Fixed one Legion patrol leader's AI settings being set to Very Aggressive - might not've been an issue, but better safe than buggy
- BUGFIX: Fixed Westside Drunks occasionally using wrong voice type. Reported by BlooperReel
- BUGFIX: Fixed grave at NCR Deserter camp near Followers' Safehouse floating
- BUGFIX: Fixed COC'ing to Goodsprings Saloon placing you out of bounds.
- BUGFIX: Fixed BoS Outpost's map marker being positioned too low, making it impossible to actually discover.
- BUGFIX: Fixed NCR Rangers patrolling the I-15 not disappearing after certain non-NCR endings.
- BUGFIX: Fixed NCR Prospectors' buried land mines not disappearing when disarmed.
- BUGFIX: Fixed Tunnelers not actually appearing after completing Lonesome Road (in some cases, at least.)
- BUGFIX: Fixed Legion slaves at Coyote Mines being in wrong factions; temporarily put Legion Prospector leader in different faction and voice type until more in-depth edits to area implemented.
- BUGFIX: Fixed Strip hitsquad not being triggered due to scripting error.
- CHANGED: Deleted some unused scripts.
- CHANGED: Removed superfluous quest for handling of Haggling Harry's Rest Stop event.
- CHANGED: Reworked almost all scripts; used more efficient functions, cleaned up layout and syntax and added comments in some places.
- CHANGED: Moved away from inefficient and less-reliable quest stage system.
- CHANGED: Removed all edits to vanilla quests besides Unfriendly Persuasions
- CHANGED: Added holotags to BoS NPCs.
- CHANGED: Some slight edits to Harry's place.
- CHANGED: Some edits to various notes.
- CHANGED: Ensured some events despawn once occured.
- CHANGED: Overhauled hitsquad system. Hitsquads no longer follow you into interiors or quest hubs. Only one hitsquad is allowed to spawn at once, making installation mid-playthrough far less annoying. Optimized system by making tracker quest only run once appearance of any squad triggered. Credits to Brandherre for helping me out with the new region check-based system.
- CHANGED: Removed NCR Medic tent at Mojave Outpost; Medic will now only spawn in a tent-like kitbash structure at the Brahmin Pens in the event the NCR was nuked.
- CHANGED: Removed names from some NPCs. Giving certain NPCs names was an attempt to please people who were looking for a different kind of mod entirely, which doesn't fit in with TLD's more tightly defined aims anymore.
- CHANGED: Prospector Merchant in Novac now only spawns in when Repconn quest completed peacefully. Sells all sorts of junk, making her an attractive contact person for players who enjoy crafting stuff.
- CHANGED: Decrompressed NPC records, which apparently gives a slight perforamnce boost.
- CHANGED: Reworked faction relations of some hitsquads so other NPCs no longer just ignore their presence. May lead to messier fights with more collateral damage, but you wanted a world that's a little more alive and dynamic, didn't you?
- CHANGED (FPGE): Sharecropper farms will now be taken over by the Legion, Mr. House or the Followers of the Apocalypse respectively after the ending if Hard Luck Blues was solved by saving the farms. The fences will also be fixed up if NCR, Legion or House win.
- NEW: Gave all Prospector Merchants unique appearances, as the original levelled list by Obsidian recycled some very recognizable faces like Cass, Veronica, Vulpes Inculta, Red Lucy, etc.
- NEW: NCR Heavy Troopers added by this mod will now spawn in combat armor if a truce was brokered between NCR and BoS.
- NEW: Added unique appearances to all NCR Trooper patrol followers, to generally combat clone syndrome.
- NEW: A Freeside Thug will attempt to stick up Haggling Harry's place upon first entering it. If you've taken out the Van Graffs, a squad of their men will attempt to raid the "Von Graf Lazr Gunz" store the second time you enter it.
- NEW: Viper dogs now spawn in levelled variants making use of the game's various dog models. Past level 30 you may rarely encounter tamed Nightstalkers - the Vipers worship snakes, after all, and I'm assuming Nightstalker are fairly docile if fed the occasional traveling merchant.
- NEW: If Hardin was made Elder or a NCR-BoS truce was brokered and the Brotherhood destroyed afterwards, a gang of very well-equipped Powder Gangers will take over the Brotherhood checkpoint.
- NEW: If you teach Jack how to cook up meds, the various Great Khan chem pushers around the Mojave will sell some medical supplies. Suggested by Th3Overseer, because who else cares about the Khans.
- NEW: Added navmesh to overturned trailer/hunter camp near Searchlight to accomodate newly added event there.
- NEW: If both the Hunters at the camp die, the location will get taken over by a handful of Vipers.
- NEW: The first time you enter the truck trailer, a few ghouls will spawn nearby, potentially getting into a fight with either you or the hunters. After that you may be attacked by a Legion patrol if you are hostile with them and enter that area again.
- NEW: After taking out Nelson, Camp Forlorn Hope will receive a slight population boost.
- NEW FILE: Mojave's Most Wanted: combines "Respawning Hitsquads + All Hitsquads Enabled" into one package.
- NEW FILE: No DLC creatures: removes the appearance of Tunnelers and Yao Guais in the Mojave Wasteland.
- NEW FILE: I Can't Find It In My Heart: spawns travelers along I-95 without the need to complete 'Can You Find It in Your Heart' for Ranger Jackson.
-
Version 1.67
- Fixed broken condition setting in BoS Turret Control Terminal that'd give people errors when trying to build a patch
- Changed some stuff for the sake of compatibility with Robbable Caravans
- Fixed Rogue NCR Ranger spawning too early
- Fixed Securitrons and BoS being set to Allies rather than neutral in House BoS-alliance scenarios
- Removed feature creep-y edit to random vanilla NPC
- Carried over some YUP fixes re: water type of WastelandNVmini worldspace.
- Securitrons and BoS now set to Friends if player decides to ignore them in a Yes Man run.
- A top corner message now shows up upon installing the mod.
-
Version 1.66
- QUICK UPDATE: Fixed a number of smaller inconsistencies, bugs or oversights.
- NEW: NCR Rangers attack Great Khans or NCR Deserters near RS Foxtrott if you approach their position.
- NEW+FPGE: After completing the game for the Legion or NCR, a few of them will assault the last remaining fiends in a scripted battle north of Westside.
- NEW: If the NCR retook Nelson and turned the gas station at the dry lake into an outpost, the Legion will assault their position as you enter it for the first time.
- NEW: As a fun surprise, especially for those who don't read changelogs or the compendium, there are now Yao Guais in the forest near Jacobstown :) They will appear in scripted attacks, which will only stop if you manage to find and take out the Den Mother. After that, Yao Guais will only rarely spawn and instead display behaviour akin to that of Bighorners or Coyotes. Idea by Valde, aka Cheesehole
- QUESTION: ELPASCAL HOW CAN THERE BE YAO GUAIS ON MT. CHARLESTON? THERE ARE NO BEARS THERE IRL?!? - It's very simple, you see: I placed them there.
There aren't any scorpions living in Boston or D.C. either. Let's say they wandered up there during the Great Winter of 2130 and leave it be. - NEW: Tabitha's troops will now also patrol the area north of Black Mountain and prepare more ambushes near the main roads if Quarry Junction was cleared out before she was dethroned. There also is an additional two man patrol of fiends in the area.
- NEW: Quest consquence for There Stands the Grass. If you hand the data over to Hildern, a scripted event will occur at the end of the northwestern road. Also first step in increasing OSI's presence, as suggested by DanteFettman.
- NEW+FPGE: Additional non-respawning remnants of the NCR and Legion will appear after their respective faction lost. See compendium for more details.
- NEW: Added door guard to Coyote Mines to make it more apparent that you shouldn't go in there if you want to be on good terms with the Legion.
- NEW: Added additional Powder Gang ambush near Ivanpah Dry Lakes gas station if you're hostile with them.
- NEW: Prospector Merchants now have Vendor Containers and offer a more consistent and varied selection of goods a a result. Brought to my attention by RoyBatty.
- NEW: House-BoS alliance mods should be supported now. (Untested.)
- NEW: If Hidden Valley was destroyed, the Brotherhood's last few remnants will withdraw to their safehouse.
- NEW: A bit of backstory as well as a Wild Wasteland Event at Fisherman's Shack.
- NEW: Added hackable turrets to certain locations.

- Added two Great Khan snipers with a day-night schedule to Red Rock Canyon’s entrance for better defense.

-
Version 1.61

- - Made every creature and NPC persistent to avoid issues with them not being enabled, etc.
- - Gave dead NPC's the quest item flag so they don't disappear.

- Changed McCarran fiend execution event to be compatible with mods that add new weapons to NCR troopers.
- Added some more unique notes to various hitsquads.
- Removed several npcs for better performance

- All data is now stored inside a .BSA file, leading to better performance and eliminating the white face/white body bug for people who don’t have bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles set to 1 in their ini, which would also lead to performance loss. Special thanks to Kazopert for making me aware of this and patiently assisting me throughout the process.

- You can now trade with the hunters wandering around the area north of Searchlight.
- 2 additional Securitrons now roam the wastes after the MKII update was completed, increasing their total number to 3. They take the place of generic Prospectors.

-
Version 1.57
- Removed NCR flag in Primm that was partially blocking the Vicky and Vance entrance.
- Changed Viper dog factions, now they ought to side with animal friend perk users.
