I don't know where Cream-of-Plenty got it, but the Classic Fallout Weapons mod adds it and dozens of other weapons to the leveled lists. As of a couple versions ago it also adds the unique FN FAL HPFA from Fallout 2. CFW's awesome for the sheer amount of stuff it adds without messing with the balance, and it's pretty frequently updated as well.

Took me a second, but here it is.

I like this particular FAL mod because it adds the model you see in my screenshots as a base model. The three mods for it are an extended barrel, collapsible butt stock, and optic. There's also an L1A1 variant, which is pretty cool.

Ojo Bueno's HQ retextures is another mod to keep an eye on, IMO it's so good it deserves OP consideration. The guy is slowly retexturing a bunch of poo poo for New Vegas and has already done all vehicles (motorcycles, cars, trucks, wood carts) and is working on some misc items (jukebox, pool tables). He updates pretty regularly, and these are some of the highest quality retextures I've seen in a fallout game.

Added to OP.



I had to remove the RELOAD mod from the OP because it's been stagnant for too long. What is the general consensus on quality reloading overhauls for NV?

Puce Moose's More Demanding Hardcore mod changes a fair amount of the drinks, I believe. It does other things that make the hardcore game more difficult, but you aren't a camel. Well, I haven't looked around the Nexus too thoroughly but I'm going to guess you're not playing as a camel.

I'm not really sure what you mean by that, but IMCNNV is pretty much the de facto Hardcore overhaul. It's thorough and neurotic and takes into consideration everything from mood to proteins and carbohydrates.

Other than that, you have about 14 variations of mods that change thirst / sleep multipliers, or add / remove healing qualities from foodstuffs.

That looks pretty great, thanks. My problem with the current hardcore needs is that it just feels like pain in the rear end instead of an immersive mechanic.

Would the Fallout 3 Weapons Restoration mod overwrite what weapons the fiends are using? The classic weapons combined with IWS makes them scary as gently caress, and I think that them having old lovely Chinese assault rifles would make things just a tad bit safer.

The mauser is kinda lovely in that pack anyway. I made a patch to remove it from Classic Fallout Weapons, and the Fallout 3 Weapon Restoration mod has a better Chinese Pistol (Mauser) in it anyway.

What is the general consensus on making a FNVedit merged patch vs a Wyre Flash merged patch? I know Bash was king for Oblivion, but I had an odd issue come up with all these weapon mods - I'm running WMX, Classic Fallout Weapons, and now the Fallout 3 Weapon Restoration mod, and I want to be sure that I get all the weapons and have WMX override the vanilla weapon mod system.

SheepNameKiller
Jun 19, 2004

They both do the same thing, just use whatever you're more comfortable using. What I would personally do is boot up FNVEdit, load only CFWNV and Fallout 3 weapon restoration, make a merged patch of those two mods, then load the merged patch you created before WMX. There's absolutely no reason to include WMX in the merged patch creation since it doesn't modify leveled lists or FORM IDs, and it might even create errors if you do.

This isn't going to lead to a totally clean compatibility when it comes to item names because CFWNV renames some weapon modifications that are also renamed by WMX, which is going to lead to situations where you can't visually identify in game which weapons are modded by which modifications. The mods weren't designed with each other in mind, so WMX might call something a light smg mod because it mods all light smg whereas CFWNV calls it a 10mm smg mod. The mod will still be able to applied to the correct weapons, but the name will be inaccurate no matter what. A merged patch would never help you make this any less confusing though.

I just installed it, and other than some weapons not even having textures (one sniper rifle was basically a solid black mass), and a couple bugging out and tilting everywhere with scopes, I like it. Just found the FN FAL HPPA, popped a silencer on, threw in some AP ammo, and blew Caesar and his guard away.

SheepNameKiller
Jun 19, 2004

CFWNV's a pretty good expander if you want quantity over quality, I stopped using it just because I didn't think the textures on the guns lived up to the standard I was setting by using Arenovalis' mods and because of the changes it makes to vanilla weapon mods. I used it for a while though and if you're really excited about the new weapons it brings to the table then those things probably won't bother you too much.

Personally, I use FNVEdit to create a merged patch. I've been poking around the FO3 Weapon Restoration mod and it shouldn't have any conflicts due to the fact that it adds the weapons to the lists via script, rather than directly modifying the leveled list. Like SheepNameKiller is saying, the conflicts that will arise between WMX and CFW are unavoidable by simple fact that there's a measure of overlap between the two mods.

Now I'm curious what sort of issue you had come up :science:

Yeah, I think it was mostly my fault. I have been looking at Fallout 3 Weapon Restoration today, and saw that it does everything through a nice, sexy script.

If I let WMX load last, it will overwrite the changes CFW makes to mods, - correct? That should be just fine.

I went to Mick's at Freeside last night and he had about fifteen throwing knives, all unstacked. This was mostly because I've been making a bashed patch with leveled lists and form IDs - my own ignorance. I'm probably loving my game up even more by doing that, which I'm going to test without later tonight and just go with a FNVEdit auto merged patch if needed (after filtering for conflicts). Most of the conflicts in my load order are OK, from what I can tell, and I've made a patch (thanks to SheepNameKiller :whatup:) that removes some of the redundant items between the two mods like the Mauser/Dart Gun, for example.

I guess what I'm most concerned about is throwing mods like the Community Patch and Increased Spawns into the mix and having issues with the inventories of certain NPCs. But it's more or less a test right now. While I'm still pretty loving confused about what the hell references and FormIDs are, learning FNVedit has helped me understand how mods work tri-fold.

Is anyone using Creature Add-On XIII?

It looks like an OK substitute for MMM's creature variations for the time being and people in the comments seem to be using it with IWS for increased numbers/variety. Plus, Wanamingos.

Some of those neon purple and green creatures look kind of silly though and I was wondering if they're all over the place.

Ninja edit: ^^^Yaaaaay!

Regular edit: Decided to answer my own question and downloaded it to see for myself. Seems pretty cool so far, though some of the variants have some weird skins (like a neon blue mole rat and a radscorpion with neon red accents). It works fine with IWS as far as I can tell, and adds some cool variations like two-headed ghouls.



In another encounter I ran into a ghoul in Power Armor as well as a ghoul dressed in a business suit. Pretty cool if you're looking for more variety, though it's definitely no MMM. Like I said, some of the skins don't really fit in and some of the additions have questionable names (like "Frozenjaw Doomer")

I like basically everything about Project Nevada except the visors turned about to be more annoying to use than I thought. Still, taking out Cook-Cook and his gang with a silenced sniper using variable zoom, stealth boy I turned on and off, and the thermal vision was pretty cool. The grenade hotkey is fun to use as well, but seems a bit buggy. Sometimes it won't do it, sometimes it will, sometimes it can't figure out that I have grenades at all.
