Vim paint

[The Executioner]

Spent 40k on a vim paint job for the T-51 PA and it doesn't even show up must've been removed. RIP Drop a L in the comments.

Have seen this mentioned before. AFAIK it is hacked into the game as it cannot drop legitimately. You can learn it but there is no option for that paint job when you try to mod your PA, as there is no texture for it in game.

Someone else might know better, but sorry to say you have lost those caps on something you cannot use.

I'm not dropping an L. Instead I'm going to point and laugh, via The Simpsons.

But, yeah that is an old asset from Fallout 4 and not usable in 76. Was probably stolen from the dev room years ago.

If its true, i recommend you 2 things:

A- If you believe in justice and with the truth in your hand, we, as a society respect of each others will have a bright future if go united, go talk to a bethesda moderator and ask him if he can delete the option to paint the PA because you bought it unintentionally and dont want a ban.

B- This world is crap, ppl are crap, so delete this post to protect yourself against a future ban, if noone knows you have it then doesnt exist.

Yes, likely stolen from dev room. A vid on youtube i saw before was from around 3 years ago. Some one bought it and same thing, could not use it.

Just found the vid again.

40.000 caps priced items should raise an eyebrow.
Could be the message that the seller is not interested in caps but wants to show off to initiate a trade for other rare items and I would bet that wasn't the only "rare" thingie in the Vendor.

Short research shows that this plan has a "history" in FO 76, Redit has a threat from "4" years ago (1 guy says he has a dog helmet, that is some old stuff :)

There is even a still active link to a photo of the plan "Plan: T-51b Vim! Paint"

So I go with Mooman: taken from the Dev-Room, duped and spread through networks of "friends".

Vim Paint has been on Bethesda's auto delete list for over two years now. It and many other hacked Plans. They were never removed from player's inventory, they just no longer work when you learn them.

That’s an expensive lesson to learn.

FYI, fed76.info has a plan pricing tool where you can get a feel for a reasonable price to pay. When you look up that plan, it has a note that says it’s from the dev room and cannot be applied to be wary about buying it.
