Crafting

Crafting allows the player to build items from certain components.

Fallout 3
Scattered throughout the wasteland are notes called schematics. These can be picked up and read from your Pip-boy from the Notes category in the Data section. Schematics contain information on how to build a custom made weapon derived of junk parts that can be obtained anywhere in the wasteland. Not only do they show you what parts make up the weapon, but they also briefly describe how the weapon works and what it fires. You can also go to a workbench and select the weapon you want to build and it will tell you what you have and what you're missing to build the weapon. Once you have everything simply approach a workbench, activate it, and a menu will pop up with a list of weapons you know how to build. Select the weapon you wish to make and after a few clinking noises a note should pop up on the upper left corner of the screen stating you have created that weapon. Not only can you make firearms but also special grenades and landmines. In total there are 7 weapons you can make with schematics found in the wasteland. Each weapon has more than one schematic that can be found to upgrade the weapon to be more powerful or effective. Each weapon is unique in its own way and can be very fun to use, such as the Rock-It-Launcher which can shoot just about any piece of junk you can find lying on the ground, or the Nuka-grenade which creates a large blast of flame that does devastating explosive damage, catches nearby enemies on fire, and also causes radiation damage.

Fallout: New Vegas
Three basic types of objects in the world can launch the crafting interface: campfires, workbenches, and reloading benches. Each station allows the creation of a subset of items. Though many recipes are visible at any time in the game, some recipes will only appear when the player completes a quest or finds a special item. You may also find that certain companions or special locations can open special crafting interfaces for the player. Recipes have skill and ingredient requirements that must be met to proceed. If any requirement is darkened, that requirement has not been met. Any recipe that has all of its requirements fulfilled will appear fully lit. After using a recipe, the product(s) of the recipe will all immediately be available in your inventory.

Van Buren
Van Buren, the canceled Fallout 3 by Black Isle Studios, was to contain various research projects which could be completed by science-oriented characters.
