Managing Books (Read skill) video - Fallout: The Sum / Nous Aurons mod for Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel
This total transformation mod (not following Fallout lore) aims to bring to life anarchist utopias after Global meltdown. It takes place in eastern part of former Canada and United-States. The game is a bilingual (french & english) single player non-linear RPG. It can be called a radical camping simulator or a positive post-apocalyptic game. The world has been challenged by the Sum of all heavily anticipated catastrophies. Humans survived and organised themselves according to a mix of anarchistic, aboriginal, technological and nomadic ways of living, mostly driven by anarchist ideas (anti-domination, direct democracy, freedom and autonomy). In-game, "Sum" refers to the sum of all catastrophies, a cult, a currency and mispellings of words "son" and "sun". The Sum (french version : Nous Aurons) is an art project created by the french-canadian artist Hugo Nadeau (www.hugonadeau.com).
This is a short preview of a new very simple feature that will start to appear in The Sum mod. It forces the player to obtain a certain amount of "Read" skill points (and some other specialized skill points like Science or Big Guns) in order to get hands on books (there are about an 75 types of books to find). Under 25 of "Read" skill points, you don't know how to read at all and can only find rare children basic reading books... It works perfectly and only need one line of code per type of shelves to work.
