Hey, Talkie Toaster, are you interested in using these for RobCo Certified? I did them up and gave them to the monster mod guy, but anybody that wants them can have em. It's the Floating Eye from the first two games and the godawful Hover Robot from Tactics. I'll probably make some more of the Tactics ones when I get a chance.

I guess I'm in the minority here, but to be honest I've never noticed much of a difference in performance with VSYNC on or off. I don't have a super powerful system that renders at a perfect >60 FPS either (my monitor refresh is 60Hz, like most LCDs). Meanwhile, I DO notice the tearing if Vsync is off, so I guess I'm just weird in that I usually turn it on for games.

Usually it's at most a 5 FPS difference if you don't already hit the cap, generally not noticeable, but it is going to negatively impact your FPS if you are not always close to or above the refresh rate, and in some cases it may be severe. The trade-off is basically if you get enough screen tearing that it annoys you vs. better performance.

To answer the questions, it does, in fact, raise carry weights, to frankly unrealistic levels. As you go higher up in weight you do slow down and get less agile, but not as much as you should, these are still kind of cheaty / wip. NPC's will have backpacks. When Malcolm Holmes shows up to tell you all you need to know about searching for blue star caps, he's got a nice backpack on. The main thing is that people out wandering around just have them equipped. Not everyone has them, but enough do that it looks organic. as far as Project Nevada, no clue. I've not looked at that. I inserted mine by editing the equipment lists for base character types, and adding a percentage fudge factor. Also there's several different types, and you get randomness between those even. Have a look, it's easy to get rid of. Here's some pictures I took the last time around during the very initial testing, be aware that the modern digital camo is gone.

I took the advice everyone gave me and got FOMM manager working right, installed a bunch of mods and when I finally started up the game, this happened I installed the armory and was using the Rambo starter pack, and it was giving me the giant red box over the knife, crossbow and machine gun it starts you with, but not the 9mm.

Ok,since I've been asked for a Guide to make your game look like in my screenshots, I'll write down what I did. This Guide is for People who are experienced enough with modding, so I won't explain details how to make mods work together etc. First off, I'm using the following weather mod, It's sort of important to use it, because it changes the HDR settings of the game too: Project Reality Then I'm using Cinematech to add film grain, which is in my opinion important as it adds much needed depth to scenes. Fallout looks very "flat" by default, which I blame on gamebryo. CINEMATECH - Film Grains and Styles (The new version needs NCM which I can only recommend) My settings in the Menu are the following: Primary grain effect: Static Opacity: 25 Color: Black Secondary Grain Effect: Grit Opacity: 25 (This one has the biggest effect, adjusting if the grain is to strong should be done here) Color: Black Special Effect: Deep Vignette Opacity: 30 Effect Animation: 120 Frames (adjust down for better performance) Then I'm using the Imaginator. I also use the Directors chair which again, needs MGM but makes adjusting the settings just so much easier. For a while I adjusted the colors with shaders, but found this just to be inpractical with no different effect on performance. Good settings I found are (I left values I left at 0 out): In the "Lights" menu EMITTOR: Macurius' marvelous Modification MED Contrast: 5 Blue: 4 Red: 3 Orange: 4 Yellow: 1 Cyan: 1 (As a rule of thumb, red&yellow make the picture warmer, as blue and cyan make it colder, in the effect.txt (explained later) there are also three settings, moodR, moodG, and moodB which alter the scenes "temperature" with special weight put towards these three main colors. Experimenting there is helpful too, but only with very, very small adjustments) Those are very weak settings and it's possible to skip them, a lot of the moodsetting is done by Shaders I put in, which I'll link later. "Nice Overall Enhancement" is a Imaginator Setting which is useable but oversaturates a lot and makes the sky glow like it's radioactive. I like my game a litte darker and I'd advise to skip it. Then to the most important Part: FNV Enhanced Shaders you NEED the full version with post processing, also even if you have a slightly beefy computer, this will bring down your framerate. I took a few shaders from OBGE and added them to the enbseries shaders, I also adjusted a few .ini values by hand and replaced the color palette. I won't explain every change, I'll just offer this archive as download. Unpack it into your main NV directory and overwrite the files that are there. In the effect.txt there are a lot of values on the top for some of the OBGE shaders to adjust by hand. I encourage to experiment, there's nothing that can be broken that can't be fixed again. (some good settings here to try are moodR = 0.33, moodG = 0.20 and moodB = 0.50 which will make the game look slightly colder outside) The shaders do this: (with shaders) (without shaders) Now to the last step, enabling SSAO. As far as I know, this is only possible for NVIDIA users. ENBSeries comes with SSAO shaders by default which don't work very well with FNV and cause visual artifacts, even though they're stronger than the inbuilt ones by NVIDIA. ATI users can try their luck by setting EnableOcclusion to 1 in the enbseries.ini, but I recommend against it. NVIDIA users can just follow this handy guide I found on the Nexus: (you need the NVIDIA-inspector to do this) performance tip: As the post processing is rather heavy, with most higher resolutions it's very possible to just turn off AA alltogether or to just set it at 2x, you won't need more and it will bring back a lot FPS. ..and that's it. Good luck with all this. Police Automaton fucked around with this message at 07:19 on Aug 10, 2011 |

Another pretty neat looking home mod was added recently: Offroad Shelter. Just a well done, very utilitarian base with a bit more visual flair than most basic shack homes. It's the level of clutter that makes this so cool to me, gives it a real lived-in quality. EDIT: Well nevermind, all I'm getting when I try to download is a corrupted archive. What a shame, this looks cool. Horns fucked around with this message at 07:54 on Aug 10, 2011 |

I just checked the OP and did a quick search on Nexus and couldn't find the mod I'm looking for. Does anyone have a link to the one that let's you tell Mr. House you're not going to kill the Brotherhood of Steel? I accidentally pissed off the NCR and the Legion enough to not let me finish their quests (I turned in a few quests all at one to Mr. House, which triggered the 'don't mess with the bear' quest, and then promptly failed it for me), and I don't want to piss Veronica off or go Wildcard.

After the last piece of DLC is released and I can finally retire my main FNV character, I intend to run through the game again and, for the first time, try out some mods to alter the experience somewhat. At the moment, I'm cherry picking through the list in the OP to see what mods would be interesting for me to install. I am mostly going for the mods that enhance the game, and wanted to avoid those that add new items and/or quests. Now I understand that I'm likely very naive if I expect that I won't run into any trouble whatsoever, but I'd like to ask if there are any known problems if I were to install the following mods... quote:Nevada Skies - Weather Effects Beta In particular the ones I'm mostly worrying about are Wasteland Defense and Roleplay-Start. I love the idea of both mods, but I'm not certain how stable those two are, the comments in both mods can be a bit negative(while others are saying they're having no problems whatsoever). Does anyone in here have any experience with these two mods, and if so, how bug-free are they?

So we meet again, Talkie Toaster. Elflibble (terrible, horrible name) on Nexus here. My attempts to import the necessary perks for your latest version of certified failed despite my most heartfelt digging through FNVedit. I found FormIDs, they just don't work for some reason. Nevermind that however! I've started a new character and am presently working to get them leveled up to where they can build something worthwhile. Enjoying a handy hoverbrain sidekick at present, it's just going to take me awhile until I can test out the ripperhands and teslatron. Thanks again and I'm very eager to see what the mod will have in later versions with Old World Blues to draw on, even if I wind up holding out for an all DLC package to buy before I am able to play it.

So it appears that the CRC error for the archive of the Offroad Shelter mod isn't referring to the important bits after all, just one of the pics that comes with it. Extract it somewhere and ignore the error warning that Winrar throws up, it should install fine. Or at least I haven't noticed anything technically wrong with it. Word of warning: it's pretty cramped (you can access nearly all the containers by standing in the middle of the place) and isn't very companion-friendly as a result. Just tell 'em to wait outside so they don't get in the way.

The guy who did the Reload mod works in ammo manufacturing / design, and he put a huge amount of (mostly unnecessary) detail into that mod, including bullet weights and rescaling weapon damage numbers relative to a projectile's kinetic energy. I suppose you could use his numbers to reverse engineer muzzle velocities, but I can't say how accurate it'll be.

Like it's a little bit below where I'm actually aiming. I don't know about the first issue - it could be a graphical setting that's doing it (something to reduce complexity). The second is a problem with the base game, though, and was also in Fallout 3. There were some mods that fixed it in FO3, not sure if they have been ported over to New Vegas. It has to do with the fact that your projectiles originate from the character model rather than the middle of the screen where the crosshair is.

I'm considering getting Western Sky after trying and disliking Nevada Skies. Specifically, what I didn't like about Nevada skies was how dark the game got during clouds and rain. I don't mind extremely dark nights, but clouds shouldn't make it difficult to see into the distance. Anyone know if Western Sky is more sensible with this?
