Remove or replace insects?

[Hall]

Crippling phobia. Accidentally VATSed a bloatfly and nearly had a heart attack. Anyone know if there's a mod to remove or replace all insects? Or how it can be done in GECK?

I feel your pain. I have the same issue with roaches, but thankfully there's not that many in the game.

Glad I could help. There was no way I could continue this great game til I got rid of the flies

I have this phobia too, I can bear seeing 1 or 2 roaches or bloatflies, but if they're more I get scared as hell, I also fear a lot ants and scorpions and any other insect.

Please if you found a mod that removes/substitutes those creatures (and those of DLCs too) tell me, thanks.

P.S.: Sorry for my bad english :3

Hey guys, i know this post is really old, but how exactly i install the DeleteRadroaches one? I have it downloaded just don't know how to activate it. Thanks! :)

I'm not sure about that particular mod but some can be installed with the Nexus Mod Manager application. You don't need to do anything manual with files that way.

Guys. They aren't real insects.

Wow, this is awesome. I've had an insect phobia for a long time and am really glad there's a way to get rid of the bloatflies in this game. Is it possible to remove other insects with mods?

This mod says it replaces all insects. I don't know if it works or not. :)

Mod description: Requires:
Fallout 3 and ALL addons (might work w/o "The Pitt" or "Mothership Zeta", but not sure!)


Description:
This mod replaces all the creatures of type "mutated insects" with feral ghoul (glowing).
These ghoul are named "RAD-Ghouls" and have all their traits (incl. loot & combat style),
stats (incl. fixed base scale - size), animations, models and sounds replaced.
I did not change the type (they are still considered mutated insects), so the challanges to
kill them still work.
No changes were made to the scripts and level lists in general, but most "RAD-Ghouls" are
either lvl 1 or 9. I also left some unique names like "Fluffy" or "Jitters"
and did not change their lvls and made some high-level boss-enemies a little bigger and stronger,
so you can still tell apart "normal" "RAD-Ghouls" from "Boss" RAD-Ghouls.


Note:
The loot has also been replaced by what a normal feral ghoul would have instead, so you will have to use the console
or some vendors to get the original loot from the former insects. Sometimes their meat etc. can be found in some places.

This mod was made for me and others who hate Insects etc. and thus may ruin the fun for everyone
else since the "RAD-Ghouls" are weaker and are not really that lore-friendly...
Where are all the ants gone? And why are there so many zombies?

It is important to have this mod near the bottom of the load order in case it conflicts with other mods that alter creatures.
You don't want the mod to fail at the worst moment when you don't expect it.


Also:
I am rather new to modding and I might have made mistakes, so I'd like to see some
advise, or issues-related reports from others.

Feel free to post comments, images, etc.!


Known issues:
Some RAD_Ghouls might have a graphics-glitch that makes them look weird.
It affects usually the ones that are supposed to be already dead when found by players.
Examples: The two dead ones at the gates of Megaton
And for some people it might not work on an older save.
