Gambit77 is fixing every item's AWKCR tags in the vanilla game / mods with patches in the process. I had to stop using it because it was only like halfway functional AND it was causing a few crashes for me due to scaleform memory issues running at 3440x1440. Maybe in like...a year it'll be finished and good. I can't tell if that mod gives weapons the names shown in all his screenshots. They were enough to make me avoid the mod.

Yo since the Fo4 thread is rip I'm just gonna put my misc questions that arise while playing it in here even if I'm not using any mods on my first run if you don't mind? So I just finished the whole intro quest line and started to gently caress around with the settlement building a bit. But it seems really awkward to me to place things since I can't move once I'm in the building interface. Do I really have to trail&error a bunch of times until I stand in the right spot so that I can place a dumb bed where I want it to be? I mean if so then actually building a house seems like a nightmare to me

It's not too much of an issue if I can't. Just means that I have to rebind when I want to build stuff and rebind again when I'm done.

Is Mod Organizer 2 still the thing to use? I have it installed but I can't seem to get LOOT to be able to see anything when I try to launch it from mod organizer 2 edit: mod organizer 2 seems to be a pain. Tried installing a mod and it says its activated, but when I load up Fallout 4 it isn't listed. Maybe I'll just use NMM Danith fucked around with this message at 16:49 on Aug 11, 2018 |

Make sure you don't have MO2 installed in \Program Files\ otherwise you may run into permission problems. I run LOOT once I've finalized my mod list and then look it over to make sure it didn't do anything stupid.

I've been messing around with manufacturing. I saw a video that showed how you can break open crafted vault tek lunchboxes for stuff inside. His process had a hopper that spit them out and he arranged them and hit them with a pool cue and broke them open. Because I love factorio I automated the process a bit more and now the lunchboxes rotate around through sorters filtering out everything that pops out into different storages, with a pressure plate that diverts the boxes when I'm done smacking them open so I can vendor them (Since apparently they give less and less loot every time you break them open and recycle them.) The problem is, I don't want to smack them with a melee weapon. I want to automate smacking them with something strong enough to pop them open but even with Manufacturing Extended I don't have anything that can do the job. Are there any ways to make traps reset without having to repair, or make a turret fire constantly without seeing an enemy? I can make a video of my setup if anyone wants.

I know there's a couple of turrets like the paintball turret that fires when it gets a signal, maybe use that? Isn't there a thing that's pmuch a stationary junkjet? that might work too.

No dice. Baseballs did nothing, and neither did book return tokens which actually do damage when they hit you. Must be something special about the boxes. Might be a lost cause. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6oM3zEfKKk Also tried loading a bunch into the junk mortar and shooting them at the wall, nothing.

Back Hack posted:What if you tried loading the boxes into the pitching machines and have them smack into a wall. I tried against a concrete wall and a settler, neither worked. So I loaded them into the machine and spat them at a spinning blade trap, nothing. I then held the box up to the spinning blade trap, nothing. However I did have one success. I found a mod that makes traps autoreset, and stationary guns will open boxes. I just have to set up a system for putting them in front of the guns.

Load grenades into the pitching machine, I suggest pulse since they're basically useless in vanilla because guns exist, or if you get the autoreset mod, just set a couple of flame traps aimed at the belt.

I'm looking for a little help/info on the details behind making ceilings in the ruined sanctuary house. I've gone with a method from a youtube vid where you start by placing a small wood floor on a flat surface and then make a wall on it to attach the ceiling too. Then you group select the finished structure and try to place it in a corner of the house you work on. I've done it twice but now I'm banging my head on the third try. I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong so yeah any detailed info on how the collision detection works would be sweet. Like I've found a few weird spots where I could place down my structure in the whole house but I just don't understand why the rest is off limits. E: Otacon posted:Console or PC?

I got it done after keeping at it and the problem was the garage of the house caused colision when I touched it with my ceiling structure. Took a while to pin it on that since the garages on the previous two houses didn't matter. Still, I'd be happy about any info/tips on the whole deal since I feel like I'm getting a grip on the workshop mode

Two things to help. One is "Place Everywhere" https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/9424/ - You'll need F4SE to enable it http://f4se.silverlock.org Place Everywhere is pretty much mandatory for a lot of advanced settlement building. There's a lot of keyboard shortcuts you'll want to memorize/print out, but there's still some things you won't be able to place correctly. It's a very convoluted system with quite a few settings and options but it's the only thing we've got. The second is to use your console - typically the ~ key. Save your game. Open console, and click the house exterior. It'll add the houses reference ID to the middle of the screen. Once it's selected, type "disable" and then DON'T CLICK ANYTHING. Close console and the house will disappear, allowing you to place stuff without any collision/clipping. Once you've placed everything how you want it, open console again (the ref ID should still be listed) and type "enable" to have the house spawn back into place once you close the console. If you click a different refID before you can enable the house again, you'll need to reload your save.

Instead of being careful, when you click the house exterior, write prid XXXXXXXX (the houses code) into the console. If you accidently click away from it, use the arrow keys to bring up this command and you can recall the code by entering it.

If you click a different refID before you can enable the house again, you'll need to reload your save. Also another misc question came up while I started to explore settlement/workshop mode. According to the wiki, every settler can farm six units worth of food. So you either build six plants that yield one food each, or 12 plants that yield 0.5 each. However that seems to not be entirely true for me. For example, in tenpines bluff I have 24 tato plants and the two initial settlers assigned to farm them. But they only seem to work 22 of the plants since they only produce 11 food and two of the plants show as unassigned in workshop mode. Is this just a minor bug? And speaking of minor bugs, is the population counter in sanctuary bugged? Sometimes it jumps from eight to nine without there actually being a new settler around(recruit beacon turned off atm) and then goes back to eigth a short while later

I know the feeling. The population of finch farm jumped from 6 to 13 in one of my games but I arrived to find 6 settlers and 4 dogs, 2 brahmin and a cat. They are Shroedingers settlers until you get close to your settlements. It'd be great if someone could make a mod that breaks down a settlements population.

Hell, I'd love a mod that lets you move settlers without having to be at the settlement they're at itself. If I don't have a free leader to handle settlement management (Sim Settlements), I'd put down a recruitment beacon and bed, have the guaranteed settler establish a supply route to the rest of the network, and then drop by occasionally to send new recruits off to the other settlements so they grow faster. Unfortunately you have to be there, so it sucks if the settlement is a bit far off where you're exploring.

My last remaining settlement peeve that I haven't been able to mod out is them defaulting to the 0,0 space of a settlement cell on loading -sometimes-. Nothing like fast traveling back home and finding my sprawling settlement shantytown completely empty except for the 30 settlers standing in one place refusing to move.

I just found and installed this mod yesterday (due to beginning construction on Vault 88) It supposedly adjusts settler AI and allows them to use the full extent of settlements. I grabbed the 3x version in downloads: Settler Sandbox Expansion I did notice it a bit in Vault 88 when I spawned in, and one of my vault-dwelling-settlers was sitting in a chair right by the entrance to the vault - the mod says it works for all settlements so maybe this will help!

I always have this immense pile of settlers just being really uncomfortably close to one another and they never move. Yep, that's where my personally-owned settlements always are. I even have a mod that flattens the place out so I can build it up easier. It gets really annoying when you have like 30-40 settlers and it happens. Maybe I should pick another settlement spot.

Or maybe bethesda should have unfucked a pretty broken game, hahaha, no, just a little modding joke. Spectacle isle is my goto bourgoise buildzone, and unless they are shopkeepers, or i have a bartender set. everyone stands in a clump, it might be because of a dated version of something that allows me to make planters, as they prefer standing in some bushes, but actually still click out them glue ingredients. its frustrating, as I'd like to make a mod using custom workshop tables so settlers have a better chance of producing higher teir medicine or ammo and suchlike, (thats old, its done better by another mod, that i forget the name of atm) but the herd prefers that specific set of bushes.

How robust is the game when it comes to decorating with small objects? I would like to have a few ashtrays/glasses/plates/whatever in my hub area but I don't wanna spend the time on placing them if they'll just clip through the world next time I'm loading in. Speaking off, it's kinda weird to me how they chose what objects you can build for decorations. Like I 100% expected sand bags, barrels and small boxes/tires to be buildable but I haven't seen them so far. I guess people would have gone crazy with small objects like that though and ruined the fps in their zones eventually. One more thing, is sanctuary bugged when it comes to the recruit beacon? It's been like a week since I built it and all I got was one new settler. All my numbers are green and I produce more than I need plus my happines is at 80+ but apparently nobody wants to join me and they all rather sleep in bushes with radroaches or something. staberind posted:Or maybe bethesda should have unfucked a pretty broken game, -Emogene did not spawn during the quest to safe her which sucked. Had to force the quest along with the console. Rip non PC players I guess -The encounter that starts the robot dlc was a huge clusterfuck of lasers and explosions and somehow the quest robot bugged the gently caress during that. He kept glitching around the area in tiny steps without actually moving himself and didn't stop. Just kept glitching around in circles. It was kinda funny cause when I talked to him he started his line, then glitched away and said things like "I think we weren't done?" and "Why are you leaving?". Went back to my save before traveling to the encounter and it worked out on the second try

There's a mod called OCDecorator that makes a lot of clutter decorations so you don't have to do it manually, or worry about random physics causing a nuka-cola bottle carefully put on a table to accelerate to the speed of light.

The first time I actually decorated a nice house for myself about a minute after I was done piper came in, sat at the table, and everything on it launched all over. I think the pepper shaker entered orbit. All the game really would need is to lock items in place but nope, physics is still on and sometimes stuff will just vanish or fall through the display case.

As was said, OCDecorator is the solution. It allows you to turn any item in the game into a placeable hard-locked prop. No more orbital pepper shakers.
