Granted I haven't tried NV DLC yet though I picked up the first two during the summer sale, so maybe they're the few that are actually worth it. For an example, Broken Steel and Point Lookout are good DLC for the cost. The rest from FO3 weren't worth $10 (maybe OA).

Dead Money took me a good 4-6 hours last night I think(Wasn't paying super close attention), and there was a ton of brand new art assets(I'd say only maybe 1/3 were reused and that was basic stuff). It's the good end of the pay DLC for sure.

Granted I haven't tried NV DLC yet though I picked up the first two during the summer sale, so maybe they're the few that are actually worth it. I don't have any pictures of the whole thing, just a couple of... specific parts of the home, but as a generality, I've found all three DLC for NV way, WAY worth it. As for OWB's player home, it has the expected plethora of storage space (no scripts to auto-organize it, though), including a workbench, reloading bench, a hot plate, and a fully-stocked auto-doc, complete with being able to change your haircut and face. It also has a vendor who will repair your stuff with 100 repair skill, you have a couple of services to break things down into raw materials, you can fill empty bottles with purified water, you can grow and clone your own plants, and when you complete OWB you get a teleporter that allows you to go straight to the The SINK (what the home is called) from anywhere outdoors. I'm saving the best for last, though; all of your appliances have a personality. And they're all very silly and make the home feel more like a mini, if really dysfunctional, community. Here's a small handful of screenshots. Spoilers, insomuch that it reveals a little bit of the personalities of your appliances in The SINK. http://imgur.com/Efp2m http://imgur.com/15GP7 http://imgur.com/F8RwJ Ending slide spoilers (not particularly important, but you've been warned): http://imgur.com/ZP4uZ Hope this helps. If you have any other questions, I'll do my best to answer them.

How hard is it to add some doors to the OWB home and then the scripts.

One thing that sucks about using The Sink as your base is you have to dismiss your companions to go back there. Hopefully there will be a mod will take care of that.

How hard is it to add some doors to the OWB home and then the scripts. In the last 5 minutes that's what I've decided to do. The design that I have right now is extremely modular so once I'm done I'm going to release two versions, one that adds the entire hideout, complete with bedroom, food storage, armory and ammo dump(the whole thing is compacted into two rooms, the armory/crafting/ammodump being 4x5 and the bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, entrance etc being in 5x3), and another that cuts off the bedroom, etc and entrance and replaces it with an elevator that will link the armory to The Sink bedroom. That way you can have your choice. Also my reason for saying that it is difficult to compete with is that there is some stuff that is just beyond the ability of casual modders, i.e. a large variety of well voice-acted appliances.

The lucky 38 hotel room always looked like the hotel room in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas to me. I just left shitloads of empty booze bottles, food and drugs on the floor and never went back.

Rirse posted:Even worst is the weird particles in the air that make it feel unsettling at times. The Sink is pretty cool, but it wouldn't be worth much if it didn't have all the awesome appliance characters. Other than them, it's more or less on par with most of the nicer player home mods (UHNV before the author went way overboard on superfluous features is the first that comes to mind).

Fairly basic questions - I installed a number of mods (Armory, Tag Skills Improved, ST Traits & Perks, Project Nevada) via FOMM, but I installed NVSE directly into my F:NV folder. Can I use FOMM to install NVSE instead? Also, I presume I have to launch F:NV from the NVSE file? Or can I launch the game normally through Steam? Thanks in advance. EDIT: Hmm, getting some crashes trying to launch the game through any method. Time to start disabling random mods. EDIT 2: Got it. Needed the Project Nevada DLC patches.

For example I manually installed NVSE and the Launch button in FOMM says "Launch NVSE"

Is there any good "weather" mod that only removes the orange tint and nothing else? Unlike Fellout, for example, which makes night time pitch black. Also, I was kinda resenting making an Energy Weapons focused character, using nothing but the Recharger Rifle and Plasma Pistol for 6 hours. Then I went to REPCONN HQ & Test Site and wow -- the Q35 Matter Modulator is a great weapon, but Thundah! from AG Supplementary Uniques takes loving awesome to a whole other level Mystic Stylez fucked around with this message at 05:24 on Jul 22, 2011 |

Started a new game with the basics: Project New Vegas, IWS, AWOP, Warzones and a couple of quest/dungeon mods. The fight with Joe Cobb's gang at the start had them take almost no damage and two of them came equipped with miniguns. What in the gently caress.

If Project New Vegas = Project Nevada, then I can tell you that isn't the source of your problem. It most certainly falls on AWOP or IWS. Somebody about eight or ten pages back made a similar complaint with those mods in their load order. I've never used either mod for an extended period of time, but I wouldn't consider them "basics." They do a pretty good job breaking the game's balance, actually. I just realized you're using Warzones, too. I think you're just asking for trouble combining those three mods together. Like a Witch's brew, only made of poo poo and things that hate the Gamebryo engine.

Last time I used IWS, AWOP and Warzones all they did was increase spawn numbers, add dungeons+monsters and add combat zones respectively. That is not all they do anymore so I get to turn them off and have significantly fewer things to shoot which is just boring

Yeah I've been using AWOP for a long time now. I have no idea why. It was never very good and all it's done is either make the game way to easy or at some points WAY WAY to hard (even if you have 10 END) where there are raiders that have these insane weapons that you can't take down because you die so fast. The starter packs are also basically cheating, so yeah... stay away. I just removed it from my load order, but some of the items still remain. Any way to totally uninstall this? Will disabling the ESM do all the work? Or do I have to start a new game as well?

In case you're experiencing a bug where drawing the K9000 causes the "dog growl" to repeat a bunch of times simultaneously, eventually CTD'ing the game, check to see if Manual Reload is part of your load order. I'm quite certain this is the cause of the problem, though I'm not entirely sure why. EDIT: Alright, I found a temporary fix to the problem. Open up Manual Reload.esp in GECK along with Old World Blues.esm. Make Manual Reload the active file. Then, go to the weapons tab, find the K9000 and FIDO, and open them up. Edit each so that NVDLC03CyberdogGunScript is switched to NONE (the setting immediately below "Name".) The problem is that this will remove the charm of the weapon barking and growling when you go into combat, but it will allow the weapon to be used in conjunction with Manual Reload. Save the file, enable it, enjoy. I'd advise editing the Manual Reload file because changes you make in this manner will obviously rely on Old World Blues.esm being loaded, but the changes will not be made to the .esm, nor will they require ANOTHER .esp being made in order to enforce the changes. The only thing is, if you have any mods that edit the K9000 / FIDO and they load AFTER Manual Reload, they'll probably overwrite this ad hoc fix and you'll be back to the CTDs. Let me know if this helps. Cream-of-Plenty fucked around with this message at 09:19 on Jul 22, 2011 |

I just updated my Old World Blues tweak mod. It now includes 6 .esps for various tweaks. They're all completely independent so you can just use one or several depending on what you want: 1. Changes the Valence Radii-Accentuators so that your hair doesn't disappear when you equip it. 2. Same as above, but changes it to BodyAddon3, so you can equip other headgear at the same time. 3. Lets you mod FIDO using mods for the K9000. 4. Adds an automatic stealth field to the fully upgraded stealth suit mk II. 5. Lets companions teleport to Big MT with you. You can also send companions there when you dismiss them. 6. Automatically adds more caps to the Sink CIU vendor if it gets low. Nexus link By the way, I'd like to have a thumbnail image to go with the mod, but I've been having an issue with my screenshots all looking strangely distorted. If someone could post a screenshot of #1 and/or #5 in action, it would really help me out.

At least the problem with the SINK AI with Requiem for Capital Wasteland has been found (it conflicts with Rivetcity's Dialog of all things). Guess a patch is coming out for it in the next few days along with Pointlook Out support, but thankfully someone posted the trouble spot being 0001d572, which I removed with the edit program. Now I can talk to SINK and begin those quests for the AIs (even through I did find Toaster while wandering around).
