Yup! Without his mod this mod won't have the proper meshes to give to NPC's and you wouldn't be able to wear them either.

dumb question I know but do I need Vice's mod with this one too or no? thanks for the reply

Exactly! :)

So is this Vice's mod but NPCs can use it too? dope!

Cool, thank you!

Yes it does. I did not mess with the belt versions.

Does this mod retain the belt slot versions as well for player use? I assume so based on the description's wording, but I wanted to double-check before adding it to my load order.

That is super kind of you to say so thank you! It actually didn't take me very long at all though. I've owned the game since early alpha and have been making little personal tweaks for years. I mostly just integrate more talented modders' works into my world so it is kind of messy to publish as one cohesive mod. But I figured I would do this one separately since there was interest in it. I am glad you like it!

huh, strange this is not getting the good attention it deserves! Thanks for making this, the integration is really nice and always helps with adding those small extra details to make a world feel more alive.

Unfortunately, no. All I did was integrate Vice's mod and I'm 99.99% sure it is not possible at all.

is there smoke effects

That's really something the original mod maker would have to do or someone more talented than me. It's a good idea though. I typically just add items from other mod makers to my NPC's in my game just to spice up the aesthetics. I only published this one because I noticed interest for it on the main mod page. It is a good idea though and clever thinking on your part.

I might have a better solution for adding these to npcs check out my for "shirts and goggles" mod if the smokes use the same mesh principles as vanilla head gear its possible to have shirt and head gear combos (so you can still use the set head gears for npcs) also if this method works could you add smoke to the bar thugs and other bar patrons as it makes sence this is a setting where some smokes would be used on the sly.
