- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
edit: sort of broken. it worked when i made it and now it doesn't (which happens... worryingly often with my mods). i might fix it at some point but i'm mostly leaving this page up for anyone with the inclination and know-how to fix it sooner than i'd get around to it to have the opportunity to do so.
so if you've ever used the sexchange command you'd know there's some issues that come with changing your gender; first and foremost of these issues being that your character still uses the animations of their previous sex (at least until you reload the game) so your pipboy is wildly off-center. second being that, if you've taken any gender-specific perks, you're stuck with them even though they obviously don't apply anymore (plus they're now potentially unbalanced since you've just unlocked their opposite-gendered equivalents). this mod provides a convenient method of changing your character's gender any time you want without any of the aforementioned issues by placing a coffin by the boulder beach campground pier that, upon activation, will change your character's gender, dynamically swap out your gender-specific perks for their equivalents (confirmed bachelor becomes black widow, cherchez la femme becomes lady killer, etc) and force the game to reload so your animations are set to those of your new gender.
this mod is a recreation of a similar feature in dark souls 2. i found a really nice coffin model in the old world blues files and it was like... divine inspiration tbh. thanks to radioactivelad for helping with my scripts!
here's a video of it in action:
as of v2.00 the coffin is now locked behind wild wasteland and nestled in the courier's grave. there's also a TTW version with another coffin just outside of vault 101. if you have any better ideas as to the placement of the capital wasteland coffin i'm more than open to hearing them out.
