I am interested in making my first mod. I have a few ideas on what i want to make and while it may be advantages to start small and create a player house (which i fully intend to do for both DC and Mojave wastelands) I thought about a mod that would make it connect the two games together in a story.
Now one thing that always kinda bugged me is how the player character is both the lone wanderer and the lone courier, so what i intend to do is make a quest/job starting in D.C. and continue in Vegas. This being a courier service that you pick up items from and deliver for caps and other rewards, you may get asked to deliver some items that attract a lot of attention, and when you are about to get on the train, you will be asked to take a chip...
What does everyone think to the idea? Now i have never made a mod (well, i did make a player house for fallout 3 but it went horribly wrong LOL) so i dont know where to start, if theres any tutorials for making mods that is nice and easy to understand (i have learnng difficulties) that would be good.
Thanks for reading!

Re: My First Mod
That actually sounds kinda badass but in a way it would break lore since ALL of the stuff in NV points right to the courier being hired somewhere in the mojave as they were on a list. I'm pretty sure a Securitron wouldn't make it to DC and I'm also pretty sure House wouldn't reach all the way to DC just for someone to carry a chip via train when there are probably THOUSANDS of applicants, especially when House could just use a robot to do it for him. So, while this IS a good idea, you can see how it wouldn't work without breaking lore. The courier thing would work if you used another hook though, like give the courier another job in DC, use the train, and just assume the item was delivered and he went about his life UNTIL the NV storyline starts, because it does say in TTW cutscenes that it was 9 years before NV storyline starts (which I don't entirely agree with but whatever). I'm curious to see how far this goes.
