Start in Vault 111, but come out of cryo earlier/later, play out the alternate start in a self-contained world, go back into cryo, and start the main quest.Start in Vault 111, but come out of cryo earlier/later, play out the alternate start in a self-contained world, skip cryo, and start the main quest.Start in Vault 111, but dress up the environment to look like some faction has taken over.There are less than 20 dialogue responses that specifically mention Vault 111.Д«ut, off the top of my head, there are at least several ways to handle Vault 111 depending on the starts: Which is all well and good, but then what do you do about the later stages of the MQ where it's pretty much a given you were in Vault 111? Certainly, they'll be back to retrieve their technology. You don't think you'll see them again, not in this life anyway, but there's always hope. In the chaos, your husband was killed and you were forced to leave your child behind.

After what seemed like an eternity, the little green men returned to Earth for more subjects, and you saw an opportunity to escape. You just didn't think you and your family would be the ones taken.

Alien Abductee: You always knew the truth was out there, that they were real.

Fortunately, you don't have to think too hard anymore you have some Psycho left and one hell of a machete. Or was that a dream? You're not really sure. Ugh, more of the same, but the haze seems to be wearing off: the boss murdered your 'wife' and sold your 'adopted' child to a rival faction. The boys are laughing about their big prize, crowing about how they dispatched their latest victims.

Raider: You awake from a stupor, still stoned out of your gourd from a long night of torture and mayhem.

It's just writing around the concepts of 'a missing child' and 'a murdered spouse.' Terminals give you more freedom to make the necessary connections. I think you make this sound harder than it is. So much hangs on you, your dead spouse, and your missing son that it would almost have to be forcefully mashed into the scenarios. I'm not sure if I'm actually going to do one or not, because so much of the game is bogged down in main quest material that it makes it damn near impossible to get away from the whole Shaun narrative and still be somewhat convincing. OR maybe you've been wandering the wastes, decided you were the one to step up and solve the commonwealth's problems and that is where you start off.ДЄnyway, just was thinking more on this. Or raiders in the area heard the door opening and ambushed you. Or upon exiting, a Deathclaw knocked you out and carried you to her nest. maybe all the shock of exiting the vault into wasteland made you pass out and a caravan carried you as far as cambridge. To roll play exiting the vault and ending up say in Cambridge Police station for BOS start.

Once the vault door / elevator is heading up is when the mod would send player to chosen Alt-Start.

Could even be audio only, just fade to white then have the sound files play through the above scenes and the kidnapping of course. All that would be un-playable short flashes to fill in the story without having to play through it - which is the idea. Could show several flashes including playing with baby Shaun in crib, the v-tech guy at the door, seeing the news report of bombs, running to vault, the bomb, entering the cryo chamber, then the kidnapping would be in there and finally getting pip-boy and heading to exit. After that, the game will 'fast forward' using the fade to white several times (like before the mirror scene and while in cryo chamber). Choosing Alt-Start the dialogues for Special/Name come up and list of scenarios to choose. When the character/face is complete and player clicks Done a LAL dialogue box pops up asking if player wants to continue with vanilla start or choose alt start scenario. Start off where the Husband/Wife are at the mirror. My thoughts on the leading into the Alt Start part of what this mod would offer. So by now you've been through the beginning a couple times right?

My only concern is that it's not generally intended to be 'alternate game story' but 'alternate start' and working in how to deal with Shaun could present some problems.
