Yeah um I can't imagine most girls that do play video games - and have interacted with male gamers - would want to be made into a virtual companion that can be easily modified. Well except for Felicia Day I guess. At least she got paid for it.

So, is there no way to update my mods through FOMM or what? I have mods in the package manager, that are not the most recently updated (the text is in orange under the web version column) but there is no way to update them as far as I can see, and I don't want to really download 78 mbs to get a single new texture or tweak or whatever, am I missing something?

Horns posted:Starting a new play-through, thought I'd give XFO a try and was wondering what some of the other XFO users thought of this load order and what I might expect from the difficulty: The load order looks good to me. Your game shouldn't be too difficult, either since you seem to be using a lot of the "mild" and low settings, which aren't too far from vanilla (and the medium loot levels are pretty balanced). I've been running with this XFO load: Cream-of-Plenty posted:XFO - 1ab - Accuracy Revamp - hard.esp And can say that the game is challenging, but not impossibly so. My only advice is to stick to Normal difficulty and instead adjust your modules accordingly should something become too easy / difficult. EDIT: Oh, by the way, I believe "XFO - 5b - Skills - SP Formula Rebalance.esp" is still broken. The author was under the impression that the default formula for skill points was something it isn't, and thus made his to be 10 + (1 x INT) plus 2x points for every point put into one of your three tag skills. Doing the math, this basically breaks the game since you can max out at least one of your skills by level 4. The module does remove the 100-point cap (it's 254 now) but it doesn't really make up for the fact that the game isn't scaled very well to handle characters running around with 250 in guns and lockpick, in my opinion.

Apprehensive about using the armor DT modifiers because I know I'm going to be using a lot of mod armors. How much of a difference is there between vanilla armor changed by the XFO module and armor added by mods that isn't affected? I'd hate to completely negate the rebalance with mod armor that was only slightly better than plain old leather armor in vanilla and now makes me a bullet-proof tank with XFO.

I'd hate to completely negate the rebalance with mod armor that was only slightly better than plain old leather armor in vanilla and now makes me a bullet-proof tank with XFO. Unfortunately that's a question that can't be answered, as the stats for armor added in by mods varies wildly. Some mods aim to balance their custom outfits with vanilla stats. Some add DR in addition to DT. Some just get lazy and don't add enough / too much DT for them to play nicely with anything else. There are several different flavors of XFO armor rebalance, as well. The most important thing, however, is not the armor overhaul but rather the module that modifies "bleedthrough", which is what will turn characters into a tank. What it boils down to is this: Vanilla NV has a "bleedthrough" of 20%. That is, even if you're shooting somebody wearing 20 DT armor with a pistol that does 5 DAM per shot, 20% of this (or 1 DAM) will still get through the armor and hurt the wearer. This leads to situations where you can plink a BoS Paladin to death with a .22, given enough time and ammunition. XFO also takes several different approaches to rebalancing armor. One way is to blindly add a complementary amount of DR to each outfit; a second does this as well as doubling the vanilla DT value; a third adds an equal amount of DR to the outfit's DT, and then doubles both values. Then there's a more exhaustive module that goes through and somewhat intelligently modifies armors to better distinguish the three categories (light, medium, heavy.) At this point you should start to see where it's difficult to ascertain how well an untouched armor mod will mesh with XFO. The XFO "Bleedthrough" overhaul modifies this so that only 10%, 5%, or 0% of an inferior weapon's damage penetrates superior armor. That's where the "Tank" effect comes from. At 0% "Bleedthrough", you need a weapon that does at least as much DAM per shot (forget DPS) as the target's DT. Anything less and you will be unable to damage the wearer. That's why light armor is almost entirely DR: It protects by resisting damage, but is largely incapable of stopping damage. Medium is balance of DR and DT, and heavy is almost entirely DT. Without using a "Bleedthrough" module, you probably won't notice a huge difference between armored opponents in NV and armored opponents in XFO. That's because you're also using a module that doubles the damage weapons cause. This means that unarmored opponents are the only ones at a significant disadvantage in XFO, which makes more sense. TL;DR, You're going to have to open up each armor mod and rescale it to have appropriate DR / DT values if you want it to work with XFO plugins, but "bleedthrough" will have a larger effect on your game than the armor overhaul, itself.

This game is much more interesting on Very Hard with increased spawns x3 and MAD (quad(?) damage given and received, and a ~70 carry weight at 3 strength)  And yet, I'm still not willing to try hardcore mode.Is there anything that makes you not look stupid in third-person when running and strafing at the same time? I know it was the same way in Oblivion, so is that something inherent to the engine?

Many, many mods I've used have had options similar to "version x to y update ESM ONLY" and "version x main" and "version x.z hotfix if you have this one issue" on their downloads pages. The larger mods generally break things up into assets, asset updates, the ESPs, and ESP updates; you only need to grab updates as they come, but you still need to actually click to download the mod, yes. Nexus actually has a "last 10 files you downloaded" history buried somewhere, which can help when you check for updates.

Goddamn, Cream. Thanks for the info. Going by your post and the stats of my mod armor, I think the most mild armor rebalance with just a bit of bleedthrough should prevent me from becoming an unkillable bullet sponge at least for now. I still have a bit of an early game advantage, but it's no more than what I'd get if I was using the pre-order bonus armor from the Caravan Pack, so it's no big deal. So far I'm really pleased with XFO. Using the hard level loot rarity module for ammo doesn't make ammo frustratingly impossible to find, I'd actually say it's just about right. I like that it really forces me to be conservative with my shots and plan things out ahead of time. While the increased weapon sway was a little off-putting at first, it's become much more manageable with practice and gun skill. Sniping, even at this early stage in the game (I've barely even left Goodsprings), now feels a lot more rewarding. One thing I did get rid of though is the gore module. Heads were still being decapitated way too often so I switched it out with Gore Tweaks. Now a head shot is an almost 100% guaranteed chance of exploding head meats, which is still too much, but I can't stand the goofy looking decapitations. BTW, WME just recently got an update and I saw this in one of the new pics in the image section:  Anyone know what mod the mask/helmet in this pic came from?

Is anyone else having issues with dissapearing companions? Boone and EDE definitely don't follow me through the Freeside South gate and now they've just kind of dissapeared into the ether out at Ellis. They're showing on the map but not in the world and using TCL to try go under the ground to find them doesn't work (once you go 'under' the floor it warps you back on top for some reason)

Mister Bung posted:Is anyone else having issues with dissapearing companions? Show me your load order--I have the same exact issue. There are very specific gates that companions will not travel through in New Vegas, including the Crimson Caravan gates. Now I'm not sure if it's a mod issue or a vanilla issue. For some reason I'm inclined to blame this on the Community Compilation patch, if simply for the fact that I didn't notice the problem until I started using the most recent one. (Although it could also be one of the Charisma-based Companion mods.)

I think it's a vanilla issue. You can get your companions back by entering interior locations and then leaving back into the cell you lost them on. It seems to be an issue with transitioning between two outdoor cells like crimson caravan, the strip, the airport etc. These don't send you to an entirely new location, but rather put you on the other side of the gate and load in the new cell. I get the impression your companions aren't warping past the gate with you due to follow distance or something.
