Barter with NPC's...

[TheRoc]

IIRC, way back in FO1 & 2, you had the option to barter with almost everyone in the wastelands. You could click on almost any NPC you encountered and trade the useless (to the player) stuff you pick-up for the occasional stimpac, weapon, ammo, etc. Oft times I wished it was present in FO3 & NV too.

 

I stumbled across this http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=35609#fileanchor recently and it sort of goes in that direction but is broken on several levels.

1) It only works (apparently) on those 'special' NPC's with dialogue options and not just the everyday random NPC's.

2) There is no barter or trade, just let's see what you have and let me take it from you for free, no cost to me, and you just don't care - just take that quest item if I like...

3) Some NPC's get stuck in dialogue and the player has no escape option other than reloading from a previous save.

4) Because of this alleged dialogue glitch, it makes completing some quests impossible to further (triggers are lost?).

 

I'd like a mod that will make everything on 'normal' NPC's such as wanders, townfolk, non-hostile raiders, troopers, etc. to be playable and therefore barterable; caps, weapons, ammo, armour, whatever they have on them, I can buy or trade for.

 

Is this doable without breaking the game mechanics?
