AG Supplementary Uniques 2.61 is out and includes some minor fixes along with guns for Old World Blues! Also DFB Random Encounters is still a mod to watch because the author plans to add robots, nightkin, super mutants and bosses(?)

Ugggghhhh, another GECK modding problem. At least this time I'm pretty sure the problem I'm running into isn't my own stupidity. How would I go about making a patch for WMX that makes This Machine and its non-unique counterpart the Battle Rifle not so frustratingly inaccurate? The spread on the thing is ridiculous, hitting anything from more than 15 yards away is practically impossible. I've tried fixing it myself, but every time I try to change their spread values with the GECK, the new .esp makes my game stall on the main menu (the music plays, but it just sits there on the screen with the ranger and the menu never comes up). Failing that, could someone make the patch and throw it up somewhere like Megaupload?  Here's my load order in case you need it: code:

Just as an FYI, RFCW should be avoided in general. It adds significant load times and instability to the game, also a bunch of glitches which break your game. I would wait a while before trying it, there's a long way to go before it's ready.

Does A World of Pain add "M" variants of guns to the game - essentially superior but rarer versions of vanilla guns with larger ammo clips/more damage. I'm trying to figure out which mod's responsible, and I don't think they're part of The Armory.

That's AWOP and M guns aren't rare, they are everywhere. Take my advice and uninstall that horrible disease.

Cubemario posted:That's AWOP and M guns aren't rare, they are everywhere. Take my advice and uninstall that horrible disease. It's also added silent NPCs around each settlement, some entirely out of place (like a lone Elite NCR Ranger sniper in Novac). And there's been a number of typos/poor English in the few bits of dialog I've found. But it's the M guns that are my biggest gripe because they're overpowered. Should my save file be fine if I purge myself of any M guns and lock myself away in a room without any, before uninstalling the mod?

Dissolusion posted:Now I just have to figure out why the Gauss pistol doesn't actually fire shots. Right now its like a kids laser gun that makes noise and lights but doesn't do anything. That means it doesn't have a projectile set. Sometimes the GECK will just refuse to save a projectile for a weapon, no matter how many times you set it and save next time you open it up the weapon will be projectileless. I've especially had this problem when creating a plugin that edits a weapon added by another plugin, and had to go edit the original plugin instead.

CoP, thanks for the recommendation on the Creatures Give You Hell and Rise of the Machines. If I am looking at these correctly, they only alter global variables, and not individual enemies, so they should be compatible with the DLC? It made robots much harder, but I also can't clear out the entire loving strip by myself now  Is there a good "strip open" mod with minimal compatibility issues out yet?

What's a good set of mods to run if I want to shift he game towards more of a post-apocalyptic survival game? I've just got project Nevada installed right now, will playing that on hard/very hard be enough? Also, is there a decent house mod that has a quest associated with it? I like the in game houses but it's annoying that you have to get so far in the storyline to get one, even if you have the pre-requisite reputation before that.

It has a nice little "quest" where you go find the other people that lived in it and you get a nice custom rifle from it as well. It's also a small yet useable hideout, not a "oh this courier actually has his own personal mega vault that rivals everything in existence".

Does anyone prefer or still use VATS with PN's bullet time as an option or do you disable bullet time? Because I love bullet time. It let's me do all the vats "aiming" without pausing the action. It also let me (on my last playthrough) to never bother with any VATS related perk.

The challenge becomes to get all the shots I need during the slowdown window instead of getting a bunch of perks to artificially inflate a probability. Plus, you might avoid VATS perks, but most of them have bullet time equivalents in Project Nevada now. Grim Reaper's Sprint is actually kinda nice with bullet time.

Grim Reaper's Spirit with Bullet Time and a high power rifle is unbelievably broken. I don't think it completely replenishes the AP meter with PN, but it may as well. Bullet Time with a minigun weapon is also the only correct way to play.

If you install the adrenaline implant you can quite literally walk into a room, press "c", headshot ten guys, then pop out of bullet time and be ready to do it again in all of 5 seconds. It also makes turbo significantly less useful, which won't stand.

I feel like this has probably been asked a million times but I haven't seen an answer in this thread yet. How do WMX and WME stack up? Is one significantly more polished than the other? Does one have a lot more conflicts with other mods like The Armory? Any preferences?

I don't really mind that actually, after scrolling through the various screens on each weapon it does seem like he went out of his way to allow durability and fire rate enhancing mods onto weapons if they were a good fit. Better than literally making extended magazines, silencers and scopes the only option on each weapon. I'm someone who prefers weapons to have fewer mods (especially if they're all scopes and silencers) on weapons so I won't have a problem picking and choosing what I do want. I held off for so long because I was worried it'd conflict with AG Uniques or The Armory somewhere.

I'd rather have a smaller selection of mods that make sense then a ton of options for each that are stupid for the sake of numbers anyways. The same type of mods repeating between guns makes sense because there's only so many sensible things you can do to make a gun better. Though I would like to see some unique energy weapon mods. My next char is gonna be EW for sure.

"Rise of the Machines" seems to focus on modifying Actor Effects, which basically acts as perks and traits for creatures. This is how the author bulked up the DT ratings for robots. "Creatures Give You Hell" does the same thing, but it also goes through and edits the templates for a lot creatures in order to change HP values. A lot of creature variants look at the same templates to get their information, so they *sort of* act like globals. I've been running both mods in conjunction with PN and a couple of equipment mods, and there don't seem to be any conflicts so far.

I always disabled it by default because I figured there were enough ways to slow down time through VATS and Turbo, already. And then you've got the new OWB perk that adds a Turbo implant, so...bullet time just seemed like overkill. Does it require a chem to trigger (like FWE's bullet time requiring Jet?)

My next char is gonna be EW for sure. I loved energy weapons in Fallout 1-3, but in New Vegas you have all the really cool reloading ammos, not to mention the nostalgia factor of using lever action rifles or breech loading shotguns while dressed in a 19th century duster. I'm using Reload and while going through the process cast different caliber bullets, and having to lug a round reloading dies / only reload at home does annoy me somewhat, having different chambered versions of the same weapon is pretty cool.

I'm just looking for something really pretty to look at. Second of all, is there a way to change Project Nevada's bullet time to function like Turbo instead of a global slowdown on everything?

I don't know about customizing Project Nevada, but you might want to try the DK_BulletTime mod which has an option to make the bullet time behave like turbo. It also lets you customize the AP consumption and the slowdown on regular bullet time.

It began as a weather mod for people using RFCW, but it has evolved to also function as a standalone weather / lighting mod for people just playing New Vegas. The screenshots seem to suggest it does more than simply modifying the weather, so it might be up your alley. If you end up checking this mod out, let me know what you think. I'm curious. EDIT: Some screenshots from the mod, to entice.   Actually, all this talk about it has convinced me to check it out, myself. Cream-of-Plenty fucked around with this message at 23:12 on Aug 2, 2011 |

That poo poo looks ugly. DFB - Random Encounters was just updated to have Robots (although this apparently doesn't work), Super Mutants, Bosses, etc. Remember, all this stuff is configurable if you are running Mod Configuration Menu, so it is very easy to get rid of the stuff you want or don't want.

I removed the effect and everything seems hunky-dory now, but  Are the random encounter creatures subject to the same changes that other mods make? Like, if we're using "Creatures Give You Hell" or the Armory / Project Nevada, do those encounters pull changes from the mods so that they're consistent with the rest of the game?

I just added those two mods now, but have been running DFB for a good while now. I'll have to see - something tells me dude made his own monsters for the mod, so I'm not sure. Also - WMX vs WME - I like WMX, mainly because the models are pretty high quality, they make sense, and are pretty reasonable in implementation (handgun scopes fit multiple weapons, etc.) The author is adding a melee mod system soon that looks to be something out of Dead Rising's book - spikes, barbed wire, etc all on baseball bats and the like.

I think it looks okay - one thing that bugs me about a lot of the weather mods (and maybe even in vanilla NV, I don't really remember) is that certain areas of the game are way oversaturated. It's something unique to NV - I don't recall FO3 ever having areas that seemed cartoonishly colourful. I like the much more muted tones in that mod. Though it would be nice if it had a tie-in with Ambient Temperature like Nevada Skies, to make the weather cycles match the current date in the game rather than just being randomly chosen.
