Goddamn it, the posters with lighting options that came with the workshop(?) DLC have disappeared. I'm guessing a settlement mod overwrote it. Also I really liked the R91, but all these lovely weapons with custom animations have trumped it for me. I would go back to using that though if it had some customs.

A problem with the Fallout 4 DT mod is that if an energy or ballistic attack falls below the damage threshold of the armor then zero damage is applied and the attacker flees, whereas in New Vegas the maximum amount of damage blocked was 80%. This means that power armor users are going to experience lots and lots of enemies fleeing and turrets not firing. I think that I'm going to get around this by giving every single physical attack some amount of bleed damage, and every form of energy attack %health lowering radiation damage. AP rounds will deal less bleed damage than standard rounds, but if they bypass the target's armor they should deal more damage total. Right now there isn't a formula for bleeding damage resist, which I would like to add. Padded armors would have more radiation and bleeding DR and less DT, metal armors more DT and less rad and bleeding DR, with stuff like combat armor in the middle. This will also mean that weapons that have higher bleed damage will be the best option against super mutants, since they wear metal armor and have radiation immunity. I'd also like to add bleed immunity for robots, similar to how mutants are immune to radiation. I think that this would also go even further in specializing weapons for specific targets and encouraging using a variety of options. High DT targets are vulnerable to radiation and high AP, high HP targets are vulnerable to high ballistic and energy damage, high energy/bleed DR targets are vulnerable high damage and moderate AP, while armored, rad and bleed DR targets (super mutants) are vulnerable to bleeding. potaties posted:"Updated" on the Nexus doesn't necessarily mean the files were updated, just that something in the description was.

Falken posted:Well if you use Grab the drat Mag it fixes the actual magazine part of the reload. This has a knock on effect that it slightly naffs up the tommy gun reload but eh. I didn't know about this mod. People are adding in custom animations somehow, so its likely that you could just add this as a new animation option. That way you'd have a better looking R91 and Chinese Assault Rifle and an acceptable SMG.

turn off the TV posted:This makes me wonder if the Homemade Rifle animations would look any better on it. Unfortunately, the animations are tied to the mesh's bones in specific ways so that they aren't always natively hot-swappable without having strange issues like floating cylinders or twirling magazines when animations play out. I think sometimes it can work (the STG-60 mod has both SMG and Handmade Rifle anims), but I think that one's an outlier. Grab the drat Mag is a blessing for pretty much any of those early-developed FO4 weapon mods, since the majority of them are set up with the Submachine Gun anims. But nowadays I've dropped most of them in favor of the fun animations on newer modded weapons. Stuff like the Garand, Varmint Rifle, 9mm, and 45 Auto mods get the double benefit of being lore-friendly and also looking really distinct from the original weapons with their animations. Grab the drat Mag gets kind of boring when you see it across a dozen different guns. EDIT: This mod is pretty fun for weapons with Deliverer animation sets, but you have to be careful since occasionally some pistol mods won't actually have working models for their magazines. potaties fucked around with this message at 19:37 on Feb 24, 2017 |

After bashing my head against the wall for the better part of the afternoon and evening trying to get the bleed enchantment to work on the 10mm pistol I decided to spawn a serrated machete and, to my surprise, it seems like the bleed enchantment straight up doesn't work at all. There isn't any DoT effect being applied, despite the fact it should be dealing 15 damage over the course of 5 seconds. Can anyone else test this out and tell me if it's a bug on my end? I'd like to apply bleeding as a weapon mod, but if it's straight up busted I can still apply it to the base weapon, or as a new damage type.

I would recommend as an alternative to these, a different Chinese Assault Rifle and R91. The two linked have some really awful materials that make the guns look like they were sculpted out of a clay/plastic material in game. The R91 I linked isn't perfect but it's better, and the Chinese Assault Rifle is great, with the caveat that it's held further away from the player in first person than any other weapon is for some reason.

Did you try using FO4edit and duplicate the legendary effect onto your existing weapon? the Keyword HasLegendary_Weapon_Bleed and enchantment ench_mod_ModLegendaryWeaponBleed parts. It seems to work that way, at least when I added bleed to a new Two-Shot enchantment. I assume you could still add it to a regular weapon/weapon part.

Legendary bleed woks for me, but regular bleed does not. They use different base spells. I'd just go ahead and use the legendary bleed effect but I don't seem to be able to apply the magic damage resist stat that I'd like. Thanks for reminding me about FO4edit, though, I think I'll use that to check if I've accidentally changed something.

I'd like some feedback on the damage system I'm thinking of. Ballistic and laser weapons would each do three forms of damage, with plasma dealing five. Ballistic weapons would do ballistic, impact, and bleeding damage. That is, the actual penetration of the bullet, the physical impact, and the amount of bleeding caused by the wound. Ballistic would use DT and DR, bleeding damage would use DT (assuming that I can get it working), and impact would use DR (using the explosive resistances). The amount of impact damage would be a fixed percentage of the overall damage of the shot, probably around 10%, with bleed depending on the type of ammo. Bleeding damage would not effect robots or gen 1 and 2 synths. Ballistic weapons would have three types of ammo mods: Penetrating, which would be relatively low damage, low bleed, but with significantly higher armor penetration, meaning that most or all of its damage would get through to the target. AP would be ideal ammo type for targets with padded armor, and armor types its penetration outscales, but would less useful against unarmored targets, or targets with very high DTs, like power armor. Standard, which would low armor penetration, high damage, and low bleed. Because it deals larger amounts of damage it would have stronger physical impacts. This type of ammunition would effective against heavily armored targets due to the amount of blunt force trauma applied, somewhat effective against unarmored targets, but fairly weak against padded armor types. Hollow point, which would low armor penetration, low damage, but very high bleed. This type of ammo would be useless against armored opponents, but devastating to unarmored foes. Ideally I'd like to be able to tie the application of the bleed effect to a successful DT check for ballistic damage, but I'm not too sure how possible that would be. Laser weapons would deal energy, burn, and radiation damage. Energy would be based on DT and DR, burn on DT, and radiation the standard radiation resistances. The amount of burn damage would be tied to the overall damage of the weapon's energy damage, much the same way as ballistic impact. I'm not sure how I'll figure out burn's DT, but I'm thinking I'll connect it to energy resistance. There would also be three major types of laser weapon beams: Focused, which is low energy and low radiation damage, but has armor penetration properties. This beam type would be effective against armored targets, and would outclass nearly any form of energy resistance. Charged (or maybe Scathing?), which would be high damage, low radiation, and low armor piercing. This type of beam would be ideally suited for both moderately armored and unarmored targets, especially mutants, which wouldn't have the DT to block burning. Irraidiating, which would be low damage, low armor piercing, but high radiation. This beam type would work similarly to the Gamma Gun, but would have a much more evenly balanced damage profile. Since most mutants are immune to, or are even healed by radiation, it would be best suited for dealing with human and artificial targets. Plasma guns would feature the damage types of both laser and ballistic weapons, except for bleeding. Like the vanilla plasma gun, however, its overall damage would be split between all of its types, meaning that much of it will be nullified by DT. Plasma would, like the other types, offer mods to boost certain damage types. I'm not sure what these would be, or how to implement them without them being too powerful. Anyways, how does this all sound to people? Any glaring balance problems you can think of?

It sounds complicated, I find it a little difficult to follow. I think if you want a good damage system then FNV actually did it rather well and I would start from that and expand it if you can. Yours sounds interesting but very complicated for a game that features rather hectic combat.

OwlFancier posted:It sounds complicated, I find it a little difficult to follow. Unfortunately this is a byproduct of adopting the New Vegas approach. Fallout 4's DT mod is an all or nothing effect, where you either pass the check and deal damage subtracted by the DT, or fail the check and do zero damage. As a result of this DT has to be a very small number, or weapons need to deal at least two forms of damage with every shot, one checked by DT and the other ignoring it. If an NPC cant beat the DT of their target they flee or do nothing, which means that at higher levels you're going to have most of your enemies running away unless, of course, you make the DT values so low that they don't really impact the game, which seems a bit pointless. I also am basing this on the Stalker franchise, which features a large number of resistances on its armors for various damage effects. Guns in Stalker deal three types of damage, ballistic, impact and rupture. Ballistic and impact are straight up damage, while rupture is bleeding, and all armors have resistances for those damage types (and more). Additionally, every weapon has two or three kinds of ammunition that are stronger against certain resistances than others. It's a little confusing at first, but once you have the system figured out it's very intuitive. Heavily armored suits are usually great for large amounts of combat, medium and light weight suits are good for traveling due to their weight, while there are a variety of suits designed for dealing with radiation and elemental damage. There isn't necessarily one single best option to use. The same goes for weapons. Armor penetration, bleeding, and overall damage and impact vary, and depending on what you're fighting you will want to use very different weapons. It's hard to fight a Chimera with a VSS loaded with AP rounds, but it's also a nightmare to fight a mercenary in an exoskeleton using a shotgun with buckshot. My hope is that, by adding a system drawing inspiration from Stalker and New Vegas, how you equip yourself will take a little bit more planning. Certain enemies will be much more vulnerable to certain damage types, while others will be almost immune, so collecting and modding a variety of weapons will be more necessary for success. Similarly, certain armors and armor mods will be much more important and useful for certain situations.

Feedback as to your damage system: Not sure how you plan to handle bleeding, but it would have to be either A) The armor reduces bleed damage by a flat percentage based on Maths, or B), it reduces the percentage of the time a bullet actually does make you bleed. B makes a lot more sense but I have no idea how tough it would be to code. If you go for option A then you're back in the same situation we already have where good armors give you great damage resist, and if you go for option B it makes fast firing guns much much better than Rifleman perk weapons because you can stack bleed very very quickly no matter how much armor is on the player (or whatever the player is shooting, Mirelurk queen etc). Oh, and I think you can very much justify robots taking bleed damage; their bodies are still full of fluids that circulate to keep them running, i.e. oil, coolant, hydraulic fluids, which are the equivalent of bleeding. I like the idea of ammo switching but as far as I am aware there is no way to switch what kind of bullet a gun shoots in the game without swapping out parts at a weapons workbench, so that will be a technical hurdle to overcome. Radiation damage on energy weapons is bad. Energy weapons are already very second-class in Fallout 4 because of their lower damage potential, their lack of variety, and the fact that so many things have more ER than DR. Making them do rad damage instead of bleed just makes them much worse- because almost everything in the wasteland except humans (which make up maybe a third of everything you fight) are immune to rad damage. Even if everything had no rad resist it would still be worthless- the damage doesn't stack, what happens is that the energy damage depletes their health pool and then the rad damage decreases their max health, but they've already lost the health that you've removed from their max so it effectively does no damage at all. The Radium Rifle has this same problem. Even with Nuclear Physicist, you will kill your enemies from normal damage long long before the rad damage even becomes an issue, and the rad damage isn't helping you kill them. It's neat that you're taking inspiration from STALKER and I agree, STALKER has a cool armor system. I'm just not sure how applicable it is here, because I'm pretty sure it does use a similar system to FNV's DT, based on my experiences in exoskeletons in those games. Small caliber bullets will still hurt you, just not very much. There are a few other issues that make it not translate very well also- STALKER uses the bleed percent chance resist on your armor, but even in bad armor you can bandage to stop the bleeding or take coagulants to make you less likely to bleed for a while, but in FO4 bleeding is just inevitability. STALKER also didn't have to contend with energy weapon damage, which is starting to make FO4's armors have a lot of really complicated numbers. Finally, impact damage in STALKER was for melee attacks, not bullets. I wouldn't recommend implementing that into FO4 though, the system you're proposing is complicated enough as is.

The immediate problem I see with that ballistic damage system is how counterintuitive penetrating vs standard ammunition is. As a player, if I'm going to be fighting guys in power armor, I am going to say to myself "okay, power armor guys, that means I take armor piercing ammo with me." You'd have to do quite a bit of explaining to the player to get the point across that no, penetrating ammo is best for guys in leather, if you want to fight power armor guys the optimal choice is standard ammunition. Doesn't make any sense. I'd go the simpler and more obvious route- armor piercing ammunition best for targets with good DT, hollowpoints for targets with low DT, and standard/FMJ ammo as the middle ground that can work against both but inefficiently. That adds the additional problem that players are lazy and would ignore the special ammo and just stock up on standard ammo because it works against everything and there's no need to switch ammo types, but it would make sense for a modded game that drastically cuts down ammunition drops- if you can't stock up reliably and if every bullet counts, players would have to use the best ammunition for the situation in order to kill the enemies in the least number of shots.

Don't actually show that because the player doesn't need to know or care about it as it shouldn't differ between guns, it's just an innate property of guns that they can't be completely blocked by armour. On top of that I would suggest that things that gain bonuses to beat DT as in FNV is still the best way to do armour penetration. I found it very easy to make sense of and capable of ample depth in terms of different ammo types and their effects. And as above, AP for armour, hollowpoint for unarmored targets, standard for general use, makes a lot of sense and is easy to understand, and more importantly, simply makes guns more viable. I would say though that doing it with receivers is going to be a bit tiresome, FNV worked because you could swap out whenever. Having to carry multiple guns or find a weapon bench to swap ammo is going to take a lot of the enjoyment out of it. In terms of Stalker I honestly find FNV to be more interesting than Stalker in terms of guns. Stalker is fun, but the gun variety for me amounts to "find the most accurate rifle and put AP rounds in it, and find the most powerful shotgun and put buckshot in it, use former on people, use latter on animals." Because animals just eat bullets, people die if you shoot them in the head. Whereas FNV had a whole bunch of cool ammo types and guns and stuff you could use.
