Gyshall posted:I've tried a million different "gore tweaks" but can't find one that makes peoples' heads blow up instead of fall off when I shoot them. Recommendations? If the other recommendations don't satisfy you, I strongly recommend using the gore rebalance included in XFO's overhaul. It cuts down on the ultraviolence and prevents conventional firearms from magically decapitating and severing limbs. There's still plenty of guts and gore, but you have to work harder for it, which makes it all the better to see it when it happens. Vitriol posted:Those of you waiting for the REAL weapon mod expansion.. your wait is now over! WMX is out! Holy poo poo, no kidding? I'm going to check it out--and from what I see so far, this really might usurp the current WME. Thanks for the heads up. EDIT: So a couple of interesting things about this mod thus far pertaining to additional guns: - .223 Pistols are non-unique, less powerful versions of the unique weapon 'That Gun'. They are sometimes carried by people that might otherwise be armed with Service Rifles, and can be found in some stores. (Note that WMX makes That Gun slightly more powerful than in the base game.) - Battle Rifles are non-unique, less powerful versions of the unique weapon 'This Machine'. They are sometimes carried by people that might otherwise be armed with Hunting Rifles, and can be found in some stores. - But no silencer for the hunting shotgun! For some reason I really enjoyed the silencer that WME added to the game.

Sorry I know someone said TESSnip but there's like a billion hits on google for it across all the TES games/ FO3, can someone link one that will work unquestionably with FONV? Or just any basic editor that allows you to read/edit the tree in esm/esp files?

It's function is to give you the ability to arrange your load order and, as a result, minimize conflicts. On its own, it doesn't actually do anything beyond this (and loading NVSE with the game.) I'm not even sure how you would play the game with more than two or three mods without something like FOMM (unless you did a lot of manual file manipulation in order to change the timestamps on the files, which could invite more troubles than its worth.)

I don't know how it broke stuff either, honestly. I use BOSS for load order and ArchiveInvalidation.bsa so I didn't have to keep up ArchiveInvalidation.txt (which if I did would have made me use a mod manager). Is the code at fomm.sourceforge.net FO3 only or does the FO3 FOMM code just extend to FONV or is it a new project altogether? I can't find FONV FOMM at sourceforge, so I am wondering.

This is the download link that the FOMM page on the New Vegas Nexus links to. From personal experience, the current version of FOMM is a 2-in-1 utility that provides support for both FO3 and FONV. I don't believe they're separate entities.

I've been having a lot of fun with modding this game but always thought something was lacking since Mart's Mutant Mod was never updated for New Vegas. After beating the game 4+ times I just want a massive, insane wasteland war to play through and MMM did that for me in F3. Well I did some digging and found a pretty sweet alternative to MMM, Increased Wateland Spawns: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=38623 I'm a few hours into it now and it's done exactly what I wanted it to do, put in a fuckton more enemies to kill. To give you an idea, before I left Goodpsrings I've killed about 50 giant rats. I also combined this with A World Of Pain and it took me about an hour to clear the Cigarette Factory of Geckos. Next, I went on to Primm and there was a faction war going on between 30+ NCR troopers and about 2 dozen escaped convicts outside the roller coaster. Yep, this is what I was looking for, highly recommended if you want to re-live MMM's insanity. Mental Midget fucked around with this message at 01:11 on Jan 17, 2011 |

Captain McStabbin posted:Why can't some creative goon just merge the two and flood the Mojave Wasteland with weapon mods? Unfortunately, you can't merge the two mods because the engine only allows three attachments per weapon (A, B, C) for a total of seven arrangements (A, B, C, AB, AC, BC, ABC) Some weapons would have 4, 5, or even 6 attachments between the two mods, which would create up to 721 (I think) combinations that would each require their own nif file.

It could still take a while as he never modded the DLC textures and he says that New Vegas reused those, so it's much more work than with Fallout 3 (he also additionally redid some of his own textures because I guess this is how he rolls). Also he's basically having a meltdown/nervous breakdown every 10 pages of comments - there are 170 pages and he replies to EACH COMMENT. Once some guy criticized his textures as not SEAMLESS ENOUGH - he almost cried, posted comparisons with Bethesda's textures proving that's their own modelling mistakes hidden by blurry textures and finally wrote a wall of text about shutting down the whole project. Another time somebody reposted his texture packs 10 MONTHS after his release on fileserve - he raged about not having A TOTAL CONTROL over where his work is uploaded (basically about not controlling people's minds on the internet) - even though his readmes were intact and he was given all the credit - it was *gasp* an UNSUPERVISED mirror. He raged about not realeasing New Vegas textures EVER after that and making them just for himself in order to get into the game industry (like it's not better to release it as a top-download mod for the same purpose). He changes his mind every goddamn time but geez I just hope his highness sticks to it and that we'll see the end result someday.

So a really annoying tech problem. My audio is quiet and ignoring the audio sliders (except master slider). Also, it crashes (probably due to the audio hardware). I am using the Realtek 3d audio on the motherboard. Anyway to fix this without buying a new audio card and disabling the old via bios?

UNTIL NOW! That code is a horrible incremental mess, I actually remember this utility from way back (probably Morrowind) it hasn't changed at all UI-wise. Anyway, I separated out the TESSnip from the rest of the FOMM but will probably roll my own and just be glad they defined the record types for me since it's still as awkward to use as ever plus huge bloat from incremental update from 1.1 I assume (as an example there is a defined struct Pair which I replaced with KeyValuePair rather than import the struct) If anyone wants TESSnip by itself, enjoy the fruit of a half an hour of my labor: Just the TESSnip.exe (and required xml): http://www.mediafire.com/?12m35d50idnai28 source: http://www.mediafire.com/?12m35d50idnai28 Palpek posted:crazy mod guy Demerzel fucked around with this message at 01:59 on Jan 17, 2011 |
