[Mod Request] Looted at start of New Vegas

[Cain2]

Hey guys,

I saw some old links to a mod that causes all your equipment to be looted at the beginning of New Vegas, and either left with Benny or The Great Khans for retrieval later in the game.

This seems like a cool way to help with the New Vegas start being pretty easy after spending some time in The Capital Wasteland (as well as giving you some extra motivation to find Benny/The Khans). Unfortunately it seems the mod is for an older version of TTW.

No idea how hard this would be to implement, and frankly I could just leave my stuff at Doc Mitchel's and pretend, but I think it would be a cool mod to bring back if possible.

Before someone makes a mod more specifically for this, it is possible to simply put your Capital Wasteland gear loadout into the lockers inside the passenger car of the train - Just do this before you go and pull the switch in the train engine to start the transition into Mojave Wasteland. After the train trip, the items will still be there in the train now at the Freeside station, but it will be long ways from Goodsprings.

With this you also have an option to keep some items the robbers might not be willing or able to loot, like clothing outfit or perhaps even a concealable weapon and few easy to hide odds and ends. My rationalization for this usually is that the Mojave Express delivery job is a covert low profile one - Cannot expect to properly do it wearing power armor or tactical nuclear catapults, no, better to look like some random wastelander to avoid any unnecessary ambushes.

That's for sure better than leaving it at Doc Mitchells. I could leave it in my megaton house even, just bring enough for the journey to the train station.

Would still be kinda cool if that old mod is easy to convert, but if not your idea is totally passable.

That's generally how I do it. I've also reduced my stats in the past just to make FNV's starting area more entertaining. I was shot in the head after all.
