I wanted to give him an old style western look kinda like in The New Batman Adventures, but unfortunately you can't wear any other headgear with the lobotomite mask. At least it was easy to make a half-decent approximation of the Cillian Murphy Scarecrow from Batman Begins.

There may be a way to wear headgear with it if you change which slot(s) the mask takes up. I know there's one for the Valence thing that changes it to the mask slot or an unused extra slot so you can wear hats or hats AND masks (respectively) with it while keeping your hair.

# ? Aug 8, 2014 00:13

DMorbid: Jan 6, 2011; With our special guest star, RUSH! YAYYYYYYYYY

Yeah, I could probably screw around with GECK and try to change the slot. That said, playing as a mild-mannered prettyboy (as pretty as Gamebryo allows, anyway) scientist who throws on a creepy mask and ~~fear~~ frenzy gas glove when it's time to take someone out seems like a lot of fun and I think I might just keep doing that.

So a billion years ago, I talked about doing a new Ammo remaster because Gtab has a big confusing name and would be awkward to work with further. So I made my own from the ground up.

I believe that it lets you turn one kind of ammo to another kind of ammo. Also I think currently the limit on doing that is 100 which is plenty for a sane person. But this mod is for movers and possibly thinkers.

Yes, if it follows how the modified Gtabs ammo mod functioned. Ammo can be broken down to lead/powder/cases, cases can be further broken down into brass. Brass can be made into new cases. The crafting system only allows for a recipe to function 100 at a time, but there is no limit on how many objects are created or consumed; this means you can copy an existing recipe and multiply the number of items used/spit out by a hundred for bulk crafting.

For example, lets say you have been saving up gecko meat for the entire game, and now have thousands of pieces of gecko meat sitting somewhere waiting to be crafted into gecko steaks. Normally, you could only cook 100 gecko meats into gecko steaks at a time, so you would have to repeat the recipe multiple times to process it all. With a bulk recipe, you perform the bulk action first (100 gecko meats become 100 gecko steaks, up to a hundred times in a single action) with the bulk recipe. Once you have less than the minimum required materials for the bulk recipe, you can use the old normal one to finish out whatever is left.

Obviously the above example isn't likely, but when you can collect any ammo you come across, break it down, and form it into ammo for the weapons you actually use, you could quickly find yourself spending crazy amounts of time sitting at the reloading bench. If you have enough material to make 200+ rounds, the bulk recipe saves a lot of time.

Isn't that a little cheap? I'm somehow melting down and reforging the brass, so anything I find can now be turned into whatever rare ammo I want?
I thought the only balance the anti-material rifle had was its rare ammunition.

It can be, but the breakdown recipe doesn't have to give you 1 for 1 of what the creation recipe consumes. Creating X amount of ammo then breaking it down again wouldn't give you what you started with. If I wanted to convert surplus to normal ammo, breaking down 100 rounds of surplus might only provide enough material for 50 rounds of the normal stuff, or less. .50MG ammo can also be somewhat controlled by requiring a very high guns/repair skill to craft, in addition to the handloader perk which the old Gtab mod required for crafting/breaking down anything but vanilla ammo.

SpookyLizard: Feb 17, 2009

Thanks Hobo, you're good people.

Yeah. You lose anywhere from 10-25% of your materials when you break ammos down. it was present in the original and has been applied to this stuff as well. The Brass/Plastic recipes don't, they're current 1:1 in the vague notion that you're flat out melting down the brass. Also because I'm lazy and didn't feel like reducing things at the time.

Upcoming releases will be include additional, calibers, additional variants, and then those things being placed into leveled lists. Once that's sorted, I'll make a compatibility patch for Weapons of the New Millenia, and make all of the guns in that use logical/normal things.

Just remember for whatever guns you change the caliber on for WNM, you may have to rebalance it as they were balanced with that caliber in mind ~~~

Actually, since you're here Naky; I don't know who exactly has been doing the sounds for Millenia's weapon releases, but I noticed that some of the weapon-fire sfx don't have mono wav files for the 'Shoot 3D' sounds. This means that if an NPC fires one of those weapons, it doesn't matter if they're over the next hill, it will sound like they're firing that gun off right next to your head.

I'm only using some of the individual weapons rather than WNM itself so I don't know how many of them have this problem, but I did notice it for the USP and the Ithaca M37.

Anyway, it's pretty easy to fix in (say) Audacity; just open the stereo wav file you've got, use Tracks -> Stereo Track to Mono, then export it as a ~44100Hz, 16-bit wav file and you've got your 'Shoot 3D' sound file.

I also just noticed this problem with all the weapons in the AKs and AR15s mod, actually (and fixed it on my end). I guess I should let Heffy know too.

All of the sounds were fixed for Weapons of the New Millenia (and a lot of the individual releases) a very long time ago. We just don't go back and update the individual releases because seriously, gently caress managing 50 different popular mods at once.

Well, maybe not so good for the individual ones that aren't fixed, but understandable if there's a lot of them.

I'm playing through The Inheritance right now, and it's advisable to turn off IWS during the whole questline. Infinitely spawning enemies and 1-3 additional enemies per spawn isn't making this very fun. It's getting to the point where it's easier and more efficient to just turn on tgm and throw grenades at my feet.
