Adding Items and weaposn to an NPC's item list

[CrusaderTemplar]

I have created some new misc. items I have added to the game but I have have no idea how to add it to an NPC's loot menu thing. I want to know how to do it, how to set the chance of finding it and how to add it to several NPC's at once istead of going into each ones files and adding it (if possible). So if someone could tell me here or even better, point me in the direction of a tutorial that would be great, I will also give an example so everyone knows what im talkig about:

 

I created a new misc item called a Fuse, this was already in the game files, but it was not being used so i decided to try to add it to the possible loot you might get from killing a NPC such as any robot. So maybe there is a 25% chance that they will spawn with a fuse on them. :confused:

 

Also I want to know how to add a weapon to an NPC's loadout e.g. adding a 10mm SMG to an NCR's troopers possible loadout. I assume this is done in a similar, if not the same, way of adding normal items.

 

I know it kind of seems like a pointless thing to do but I like little things like that, and I might even add some sort of misc expansion mod someday...

 

Please say if you don't get what i'm saying and thanks to everyone in advance!

 

P.S. I also have a decent understanding of how the GECK works now.

I haven't done this yet with FNV but I assume you are using GECK right?

What I did for items in FO3 was find an item that I wanted it to be as common as then right click it and click item use then add the "new" item to whatever lists the the existing item already is in.

For example in FO3 I downloaded a scarf mod, I wanted scarves to be as common as biker goggles so I right clicked on outfitwastelandhat03 saw that it was in the list wasteland clothing (or something like it) then grab and drag the item into the list.

Sorry for being vague I did this a while ago, hopefully someone who knows more will come along and give you a more satisfactory answer.

I should lookin more into this for adding backpacks to vendors and NPCs for hardcore mode.

To reduce number of creatures to go through, You can use "DeathItem" leveled items. Most creatures (NPC) have it and names are pretty self explaining.

 

To add weapon to NCR troopers You can use leveled list LL2Tier2GunsNCRTrooper90 (and maybe others, really only depends on designers in obsidian what they used where...)

 

You can read more on leveled items on geck wiki.
