This week on the Mod Roundup, we've got craftable hats you can place on your robotic companionsin Fallout 4, a feature that Bethesda somehow overlooked in their new DLC. There's also a mod that brings co-op play to the original Crysis, and a Half-Life 2 mod with an original story that takes place on an alien planet.

There's currently only one level to play, but it sounds like there's more on the way,
