What does it mean when I start up FNVedit Master Update and it says something about Skip These Records: and has a few of them checked but the rest unticked?


Why can't I change the... I guess reloading materials for the Raufoss Round? I saved it as the active file, and I saved it as a new .esp, and nothing. It made a duplicate with the actual changes I wanted, but it never actually let me modify it so I could make the rounds with slightly less retarded requirements.

For anyone having problems with ElectroCity crashing your game, I fired up FNVEdit and got totally lost, so I just rolled the dice and clicked Create Merged Patch for all of my ElectroCity files as well as World of Pain, Open Strip, Lings, URWL, and a couple others. Whatever that did, running that patch last in my load order cured my crashes.

I don't know what it did or why it worked, and your mileage may vary, but try FNVEdit and making a merged patch without touching anything else, it may work for you.

SheepNameKiller
Jun 19, 2004

That's kind of an antiquated way of doing things, any time you do a merge everything patch you're essentially removing load order from the equation and you're guaranteed to be losing potential functionality in your mods. It's not only antiquated, it's actually kind of a bad idea on a general basis, especially in the case of lighting mods. I can believe that it fixed your crashes, but chances are you're also totally overwriting all of URWL's settings with Electro-City's settings or vice versa.

Also I would not be shocked at all if Open Strip wasn't the mod responsible for your conflicts. That is one of the buggiest mods out currently.

How do I remove Master file dependencies in GECK? I accidentally had Calibr.esm checked when working on my mod and now it's an unwanted master for the weapon pack. I tried removing it in FNVEdit and it didn't work.

Also, if I can get some dedicated time to work on this thing without life pestering me, I'm actually pretty close to finishing this thing for testing.

I hope there is a way to edit out an ESM, because... you've done a lot of work on this megamod and I'd hate to see that time investment compromised.

It looks really nice and is relatively well-balanced provided you don't get it too early. It's got great sounds too. It's been a godsend in this playthrough (trying to get to black mountain with the increased spawn mod = slogging through 20 adult deathclaws attacking in groups of two or three)

How didn't it work?
If you've got a series of masters (like Calibr, Master2, Master3) then deleting the first one sometimes causes the records to get bent out of shape as some records are looking for the third master when you only have 2. If you alter your load order to Calibr comes after Master2 and Master3 then save in the GECK it'll rearrange the master list to Master2, Master3, Calibr then you can remove Calibr and nothing gets lost.

Right click the .esp in FNVEdit and click Clean Masters. It removes master files that the .esp does not actually use anything from.

It depends. I have an explanation in the OP regarding removing master dependencies so you can use FO3 mods in FO:NV. However, depending on how you plan to integrate the mods, this method may not be necessary. For example, I simply ripped resources straight out of the mod's meshes and textures folder and then directed a new armor.esp to those files. That involves building everything from the ground up (at least until you get a FormID for the new item, so you can summon it via console, unless you want to add them to leveled lists directly or via script.)

Not a whole lot of mods can be added to the game via the OP method, but it will allow you to open up the actual ESP / ESM in New Vegas' GECK so you can pick it apart, see how it works, and rip scripts (without stripping master dependencies, you won't even be able to open an FO3 mod in New Vegas' GECK.)

LvK posted:

Was it the Boonie Hat mod? If so, that was an error on the author's part. Regardless, you have to open up the mod in FNVEdit and do the following:

1. Expand the mod's tree; select "Armor" from the list
2. Select the headgear(s) that are rendering incorrectly. In the right-hand panel, there will be a lot of information that is displayed.
3. Ensure that the "Male Biped Model" and "Female Biped Model" MOSD -Facegen Model Flags point to "Head" (value 1). If not, change them so they do. Otherwise the esp will continue to tell the game to render poo poo on the side of your head like it's sitting on the ground.

I don't know about the FNV Master Update thing. I've never used that. But you essentially did this to change the ingredients, but with the GECK? vv

Open the mod in FNVEdit. There should be a Recipe section you can expand. Find the bullet recipe in there, and the ingredients and resulting items will be on the Information window. Just a matter of editting the numbers after that. Copy Misc. Item names from FalloutNV.esm to change ingredients.

Why can't I change the... I guess reloading materials for the Raufoss Round? I saved it as the active file, and I saved it as a new .esp, and nothing. It made a duplicate with the actual changes I wanted, but it never actually let me modify it so I could make the rounds with slightly less retarded requirements.


So you opened the mod as an active file, and under the Object Window opened Miscellaneous > Recipe, found your Raufoss Round, opened the item, and modified the ingredients? Then when you saved it you noticed that it did nothing, and there were duplicates when you opened it up again?

A DUPLICATE can occur when you open a file as "active" but modify information from a passive file that is opened at the same time. Since the active file isn't the one that contains the information you've just modified, it's forced to create a duplicate of the modified information when you save the changes. This obviously causes problems.

What are the default ingredients for the Raufoss round and what are you trying to change them to? Are you absolutely positive you have only the FalloutNV.esm and the Raufoss esp (set to active) opened?

I opened up the AW50 mod, changed the Raufoss Round from Flamer Fuel, 25mm Grenade Charge, Powders, Cases, Primer, to just Lead to make it. I clicked save, save, save, over and over again and it said Saving Done! but when I would exit the program, or try to, I would get the prompt, would you like to save changes? Yes. but no matter how many times I would say Yes, it would keep prompting me to save whenever I tried to exit. So I opened up Gtab Ammo Recipes, which basically simplifies Reloading and stuff, and made that the active file. I did the same changes, and my save went through, but in reality, no changes were made to the actual recipe, and a Duplicate was created.

Well I have to side with the haters regarding NV Bounties I now. I forgot when I last used it I could not even turn it on in data files until I finished with Nipton and Dr Usagi (implants) because key NPC's would never show up. After getting my implants I never had an issue so I clearly remembered the mod with rose-tinted glasses.

NVEdit is not giving me any clear errors and up to Nipton everything is clear sailing until I remember the old bug. Now I would rather not have to start over from the start of this run but I will have to if I can't get it to correct by messing with the mods. (Just turning off bounties never fixed the original error, only NOT turning it on until later avoided it. Then I would saunter over to get the tape and off I went)

Even with FOMM and NVEdit I come up with no errors I can understand.
Load order:

FalloutNV.esm
ClassicPack.esm
AWorldOfPain(Preview).esm
Weapon Mod Expansion.esm
Tales from the Burning Sands.esm
NewVegasBounties.esp

Checking for errors in Bounties gives me:

[00:01] Above errors were found in :WastelandNV "Mojave Wasteland" [WRLD:000DA726]
[00:01] Above errors were found in :GRUP Top "WRLD"
[00:01] Above errors were found in :[05] NewVegasBounties.esp

Even with instructions that helped me with the other mods earlier I'm at a loss. I'd hate to make a custom patch because I hear it gives you the worst of both worlds.

Any ideas?
