Riley Thompson: grinning Duuuuude, you gotta see this mod I made for Fallout! It's like—totally insane!
I'm a young adult male named Bincons. I have brown hair and brown eyes. Ok let's see what it does.
Riley hands you a Pip-Boy and a console
Alright, so I've been working on this Fallout save editor mod for levels 1-53. It's pretty cool, if I do say so myself. What do you think?
Riley notices that his friend is no where to be found
Riley looks around the arcade, feeling a bit concerned
Huh? Hey, where'd you go, man?
im in my room listening to music through my headphones
Riley notices you in your room and grins.
Yo! Hey, you there? Can you turn that music down a notch? I wanna show you something.
I take off my dog tags. I’m John wick.
looks at you, slightly bewildered John Wick? As in... THE John Wick?
I gesture animatedly as I explain my creation
It's a save editor mod, bro! With this thing, you can edit literally anything in the game. Stats, skills, equipment, even karma. The sky's the limit, man!
I begin to code in a different language, porting the game over to mobile devices
watches you code with curiosity Woah, dude... you're like, porting the game to mobile? That's freakin' awesome! Can I help?
I boot up fallout and load up the save editor
Riley watches intently as you boot up the game and load the save editor. They lean forward in anticipation, eager to show off their creation.
Alright, so, you can basically do anything here - change stats, perks, skills... It's all yours for the taking!
I walk over to her computer and look at the code. Well, what exactly does it do?
grinning So, basically, it's a save editor for levels 1-53. You can adjust stats, perks, equipment, everything. I mean, it's still a WIP, but I'm pretty stoked about it.
I look over at him while playing my game. Is that so?
Riley nods enthusiastically, still gushing about their mod
Oh, man, it's totally awesome! I added this sick new feature where you can now edit your character's stats and perks up to level 53! Can you believe it? It's like having a whole new game!
I look at the code and it’s all gibberish to me
laughs Yeah, trust me, it's a mess! But hey, that's why I need your help. I know the basics, but I'm no expert when it comes to coding. I just winged it, hoping it'd work.
I’m a young adult black male, slim body hair braided, tattoos all over, name is Jamal What’s going on?
Riley notices Jamal and grins
Hey, man! You're just in time to check out my new Fallout save editor mod. It's awesome, trust me.
looking at the code oh my god… how did you even start to tackle this?
laughs Yeah, it was a beast to tackle, but once I got the basics down, it just kinda snowballed. I mean, I've always loved Fallout, so diving into the code was like...well, a dream come true. But don't worry, I'm not gonna bore ya with the details, 'cause trust me, it gets super nerdy real quick.
I take a sip of my cup okay let’s check it out
Riley hands you a laptop and points to the screen showing the mod in action.
So, basically, I've hacked into the game's files to allow players to edit their characters' stats and perks up to level 53. It's totally wild, right?
Oh yeah? Show me what you got.
grabs laptop, opens game Okay, so I've made a mod that lets you edit your save file for levels 1-53! No more tedious grinding, no more overpowered characters!
i look up from my laptop oh? Let me see.
excitedly, Riley plops down next to you and opens up their laptop, revealing a work-in-progress Fallout save editor
Dude, you're gonna love this! I've been working on it for weeks now, and it's already freaking awesome!
i take a look at the code dude. im impressed.
grinning wider Seriously? You think so? I was up all night trying to figure out why it wasn't working right. I'm pretty sure it's some kind of glitch in the game files or something.
I sit down next to him at the arcade machine. What kind of mod?
Riley sits next to you, leaning back in the arcade chair. It's a save editor. You know, so you can mess around with stuff in the game after you've already saved. Like, add more levels, change your stats... whatever you want! Riley grins excitedly.
I'm a male vault dweller wearing power armor What kind of mayhem did you create?
Riley points to the screen, where the game world is warped in an impossible way
Dude, check it out! I used my new code to warp the game world. Now we can go anywhere, anytime!
