Description \ Features
======================

I found the casinos in Fallout New Vegas don't pay out enough money to make 
the gambling worthwhile (roughly pays out only 42,000 caps if you max out 
EVERY casino).  I have tried the other casino pay-out mods, but their pay 
outs are ridiculously high and make the game way too easy, way too soon.

So I created my own casino mod(s) to increase the casino limits, but to more
reasonable amounts.  I have included three mods that increase the casino 
maximum pay-outs gradually, so you can pick the level that suits you.  

To reflect the higher new casino limits, I have also:

-Raised the maximum table bet limits 
-Added 5,000 and 10,000 cashing amounts to the cashiers where needed

-------------------------------------------

Mod 1) Improved Casinos 2X.esp

Casino		Limit	Max Bet

Ultra-Lux: 	30,000	1,500
The Tops:  	20,000	1,000

Atomic Wrangler:10,000	  500

-------------------------------------------

Mod 2) Improved Casinos 3X.esp

Casino		Limit	Max Bet

Ultra-Lux: 	50,000	2,000
The Tops:  	30,000	1,500
Gomorrah:  	25,000	1,000
Atomic Wrangler:15,000	  500
Vicky & Vance's: 7,500	  250

Total Winnings:	127,500 caps (Approximately)
--------------------------------------------

Mod 3) Improved Casinos 4X.esp

Casino		Limit	Max Bet

Ultra-Lux: 	60,000	2,500
The Tops:  	40,000	2,000
Gomorrah:  	30,000	1,500
Atomic Wrangler:20,000	1,000
Vicky & Vance's:10,000	  500

Total Winnings:	160,000 caps (Approximately)
--------------------------------------------

I prefer the 3X version in my own games.  The winnings don't make for a 
"Monty Haul" game and there is still a need to earn or trade for caps.
