Requirements
Requires xNVSE v6.2.6 or greater: https://github.com/xNVSE/NVSE/releases.
Installation
ShowOffNVSE.dll and ShowOffNVSE.ini must end up under Fallout New Vegas/Data/nvse/plugins/.. (in the plugins folder).
Installing the primary .zip file from a mod manager should also work.
ShowOffNVSE_INI.zip need only be installed once; new INI options are automatically added to the file.

Subjective Bug Fixes

ResetInterior Resets Actors
The ResetInterior script function will now resurrect actors, as they would be if the cell was reset by waiting long enough. This renders it functionally identical to the ResetInteriorAlt function.
Gameplay Tweaks
-
Use Gamesettings For Fist Fatigue Damage
Instead of multiplying the hit damage by 0.5 to get the fist fatigue damage, the formula is now: fistFatigueDmg = fHandFatigueDamageBase + (fHandFatigueDamageMult * regularDmg) -
Creatures Deal Melee Fatigue Damage
Lets creatures deal fatigue damage from melee attacks. The formula is: meleeFatigueDmg = fHandFatigueDamageBase + (fHandFatigueDamageMult * regularDmg) -
Unarmed Weapons Deal Fatigue Damage
Lets unarmed weapons deal fatigue damage, except for those with the 'Spin' animation type. The formula is: fatigueDmg = fFatigueAttackWeaponBase + (fFatigueAttackWeaponMult * regularDmg) -
No Self-Repairing Broken Items
If enabled, broken items (0% condition) cannot be repaired in the pipboy repair menu. This encourages more attentive maintenance. -
No Vendor Repairing Broken Items
If enabled, broken items (0% condition) cannot be repaired in the vendor repair menu. This encourages more attentive maintenance.
Questions-&-Answers
This is a series of questions that generally get asked on pages for other NVSE plugins.
Q. Does this mod replace JIP LN NVSE Plugin, JohnnyGuitar NVSE, and SUP NVSE?
A. No, ShowOff does not replace those plugins. It is meant to be installed and used alongside them.
Q. Will you support NVSE 5.1.4?
A. No. Due to features in xNVSE that this plugins need, it is not feasible to support legacy versions of NVSE.
If you have anymore questions, feel free to join us on the xNVSE community Discord server.
Permissions
All releases are free to be used by anyone.
As for redistribution or taking code from this plugin for your own use...
Keep in mind that much of the ShowOff NVSE code is taken from others .
I (Demorome) try to make it clear from where such code came from.
If you want to use code I took from someone else, you should ask the original creator for permission.
Besides that, you may use any of my code anywhere without asking for my permission, so long as you credit me.
