Someone in childhood dreamed of becoming an astronaut, someone - a lifeguard, others, on the contrary, dream of being bandits. Partially realize our underlying desires help computer games.
Often in virtuality, it is proposed to become a good hero, but on the contrary it happens much less often. How to become a bandit, pimp, drug lord in Skyrim? Typically, open-world game developers promise tremendous opportunities from the start: you can do anything you like, but when it comes to release, it turns out that half of the promises remain unfulfilled. Players want to rob caravans, deliver representatives of ancient professions, and the developers answer: "Sorry, no time."
What to do if you really want to rob caravans and do wrong? Fashion will come to the rescue. After all, constantly playing for the positive side and constantly saving the princesses is already boring: the plots of most games are written as if with a carbon copy, and it’s becoming more and more difficult to find a truly original one.
What are mods, or how to become bandits
Modifications are usually understood as modified game resources made using either third-party programs or official SDKs. SDK is a program provided by developers, with the help of which they made a game, but probably with reduced capabilities. In other words, if the desired ability, grouping, object according to the scenario is not available, you can optionally supplement it yourself using third-party programs or the official mod development environment if you have one.
Also, do not confuse modifications with additions or, as they are also called, add-ons . Add-ons (from the English add - add) expand the game world, introduce new characters, complicate the script or continue it. Add-ons are a way out for developers when the game is planned to be big, but there is no way to implement all our plans.
It is add-ons that allow you to expand the game world over time. Often these add-ons look like a new game. “Blood and Wine” for “The Witcher 3” is a living example.
With modifications and mods, everything is clear
But what to do to become a gangster? To do this, it is not necessary to write your own modification. So, if you go the most difficult way, creating your own mod from scratch, you need certain knowledge and time. But you want to become a bandit today and join the forces of the dark side as quickly as possible. In such cases, it is necessary to find a ready-made modification on sites of a suitable subject.
Verified sites with modifications
If we are talking about the Skyrim game, then there is no better site with modifications than nexusmods.com, but most of the modifications are in English. Of course, there are also Russian speakers, but there are very few of them there. Therefore, if you are comfortable with English, then modifications can be taken here.
We go to the website http://www.nexusmods.com/games/.
Choose a game, for example, Skyrim.
Next, select Files-> Browse files.
Enter the bandit keyword and see all the mods on it - there are a huge number of them. For convenience, open each new mod in a new tab so as not to close the main mod search window. To open a new tab in the browser, click on the mouse wheel. How to understand what is worth adopting and what is not? You can sort the most tested and popular mods by selecting in Sort By Most endorsed (the most valuable).
Read the descriptions and choose what you need. By the way, the synonym for bandit is highwayman.

A few words about installing mods and how to become bandits
Installing mods is material for a separate article, but briefly it boils down to downloading the Nexus Mod Manager program. You may need to register on nexumods.com, where English-speaking mods, or tesall, or any similar one, are located. If you decide to learn English, then it’s easier for you, just select a mod on the site nexusmods.com and click "transfer" the download to Nexus Mod Manager.
If this is any other site, you will have to use the Add Mod from File menu, where a file means a previously downloaded modification. By the way, Nexus Mod Manager supports archives. In other words, open the Nexus Mod Manager, select +, then Add Mod From File and select the file with the mod as an archive.
Why do you need a Nexus Mod Manager? Of course, you can do without this program and unzip the mods directly into the game folder, but if you change your mind about becoming a bandit in Skyrim or any other game, you will have to remember what is copied and what is replaced (make copies of the original files). Nexus will do all this for you (copy, write where, when, make backup copies of replaced files for you).
Banditry for other games
Modifications to "Stalker" (how to become a gangster (STALKER), and to other games) are installed in the same way, there is even the opportunity to download a ready-made installation file with customized mods, or you can do it yourself by following each file replacement and manually copying everything necessary files from the original game. Thus, in the game "Stalker" how to become a gangster ceases to be a problem for a gamer.
The article lists two games and their modifications, but the main principle remains the same for almost everyone.
