What is the problem with raising the level cap?

[DarthKeagon]

So, I want to raise the level cap like they did in the DLC's as a part of an unannounced mod I am working on. Now I can't find very many mods that do this(if any) and i'm wondering what the problem is? The DLC's did it. Is it that hard for us to do it? Am I not looking hard enough? If anybody knows how to raise the level cap and could tell me, that would be fantastic.

 

Also wondering how to make a message popup like how it does ingame when a DLC is loaded. Thanks!

There is something like this: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/46791/?

Or you could check this for FO3: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/359/?

Well, I know mods exist for it. I'm just wondering how they actually change the value of max level. I want to do it like where if you have this mod it raises the cap by 5, so if you have no DLC it will raise it to 35, but with 1 it will be 40 or with all it would be 55. Which i'm pretty sure is how the actual DLC's do it.

the max character level isn't saved across games - you have to reset it every time you start.

 

if (GetGameRestarted == 1)

set OldMaxLevel to GetNumericGameSetting iMaxCharacterLevel

set NewMaxLevel to OldMaxLevel + 5

SetNumericGameSetting iMaxCharacterLevel NewMaxLevel

ShowMessage YourMessageHere NewMaxLevel

endif
