Ok I have a pretty high tolerance for anime and think there is nothing inherently wrong with it, but goddamn. I mean seriously, why even play Fallout? Can't they just play Second Life if they want to play as creepy plastic French maids with floating robot girl slaves?

Well, Fallout is basically the only mainstream game that allows free modding. Second Life does too, but it's not exactly a game like Fallout is.

I've been wanting to re-install FO3 and FO:NV but the crashing and stability issues of both games (Mostly FO3) have been putting me off getting the whole things installed and then modded/sorted/troubleshot/fixed all that poo poo... but the games are so good :smith:

Sure it is. It's not very anime though and would add more creepiness than comedy to a let's play.

Edit:
Looks like the author or uploader is behind most of the anime stuff, like anime child bathing suit armor with bouncing breasts.

I don't even get the point of this one. It's not like there aren't plenty of female companions already in the game to mod, why turn ED-E into something totally unrelated? I mean he could at least have made her an android woman or something, but nope, just the stereotypical "huge breasts, skimpy outfit" adult mod.

I've never understood half the "anime porcelain doll" outfits either. I mean it's not as if there isn't plenty of anime out there that would actually fit the setting. I mean, glowy power armour is a bit out of place but at least makes a lot more sense than a french maid outfit. Hell, Trigun is basically "Westerns in space", why not just steal from that?

Nah. It needs some functions added by the NVSE guys, but they've been busy.

So... I wasted time I should've spent revising finishing some stuff off.
Meltdown Medley (vid here), changes meltdown's FX depending on your weapon. So laser somebody, they die in a red explosion, flamer them and they explode into burning gibs and so on.
Playing With Firepower (vid here), adds a bunch of weird scripted weapons and perks, including the burst-fire mode I mentioned earlier, a smart missile launcher (with homing missiles etc.), smoke grenades, and lasers/plasma that ricochet off things, and a vaguely Crysis-ish 'Tag people with binoculars' perk.

Alien Slof, designer of the tremendously popular Slof's Boners mods, is considered "one of the best and brightest" modders Nexus had seen. I got to thinking about just how loving weird her mods are, so I did some digging around and found her website (occasionally :nws::nms:).

I think that while there are some people that make innovative, technically impressive mods and there is a lot of talent in the community, you can virtually guarantee that any time a mod contains anime elements or even passingly sexual elements that the author is a revolting loving waste of a human being. As evidence, here is Slof modelling a (not badly made) facehugger mask of her own designing. Look at that image, and extrapolate the dimensions of the individual in it based on what you can see :barf:.

I'm pretty sure at this point that all of those sexual/anime mods that make normal people like you or I groan are made by people who are lifelong shut in deviants. Like, the people they've been talking about for most of our gamefaqs.png thread. I want to believe that the creators are making them ironically and a few wierdos are coming out of the woodwork to show how much they like them and be quietly mocked; at this point I just know better though.

Yeah, this is why I'd think it'd be interesting (to say the least) to have a window into their lives. Why they are how they are, etc.

Also :lol: at that website:

quote:

To all those ingrates who send me snotty emails telling me what I should do with my own mods, I say this: gently caress YOU! They are MY mods, I can do with them exactly what I choose to do. I can host them wherever I drat well like - and if for whatever reason you can't access them, good. You don't deserve to have anything.

Considering that the mods and art are shared totally for free, I really am sick of people treating me like it's their god-given right to have them. It's NOT a right, it's a privilege. I don't HAVE to share a goddamn thing. I could remove the lot and say 'to hell with you' and I would be perfectly within my right to do so. My mods, made for me first. Shared because I (usually) like sharing. I like encouraging creativity. I've paid out for extra hosting so that I can share - and this is the treatment I get.

I removed myself from Nexus after being treated badly by its owner. After the years I put in for the site. I expressed a genuine concern for the site's reputation, only to be shot down in a snotty reply that hurt me very deeply. I'm NOT going to stick around for that kind of treatment anywhere. After ALL I'd done for Nexus. Bah.

Just remember all this before rushing to my contact page to harrass me and call me names, or tell me what to do like you're my boss or something.

On a plus note however, I give many thanks to the kind souls who have donated to the site's upkeep. The money will be used for renewing - or maybe even increasing - the site's space. It's always nice to know that there are decent people out there to make up for the ingrates. People who appreciate the privilege of using my mods. To those people, I say a big THANK YOU.

People were apparently really torn up at losing access to their boner mods.

Whatever. Too many "modders" do it for the wrong reasons, IMO. Do it first and foremost because YOU want to do it with the intentions of releasing it for all to enjoy it as secondary. The moment you start doing it for adoration or attention just sets you up for drama and disappointment down the line.

Crawlius

Spot on. Part of the reason the Nexus is such a piece of poo poo is that so many of the mods are made by would-be narcissists whose primary motive is getting attention. It's not that wanting that attention precludes the possibility of your mod being any good, but doing something for its own sake - and THEN releasing it for others to enjoy - is definitely the way to go.

Also that the commenting rules are pretty much "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all", or at least wrap your comment in such a thick layer of cotton wool that the mods won't see it as an opportunity to do some gangbanging. How's that for a healthy creative environment.

I've been playing the hell out of it for the past week or so, and so far it's really good, albeit buggy at times. This is especially true if you load the FO3 DLCs along with it. If you have operation anchorage for example, sgt montgomery will follow you around, not like a companion, but whenever you enter a place or fast travel he will be there and help you attack hostiles if in range.

There are also reports that the FO3 main questline bugs out at tranquility lane preventing completion. Come fly with me is also bugged for some reason.

Most everything else works like a charm though. The best part is that MANY new vegas AND FO3 mods work in conjunction with it.

Bit of a busy night tonight on my end. Got those two FG42 and Bren Gun mods that were uploaded on Nexus a couple days ago in as their textures were significantly improved from the originals in the 20th century pack (where he sourced them from), but I'm gonna have to fix pretty much everything as per usual. Terrible IS on the bren and simply 'bad' on the FG and both are using WTF worthy animation calls. Going to see if I can't use more appropriate ones and also separate the meshes so the parts that should be animated will be.

I also have a Mateba Model 6 Unica in game and working perfectly, except it has a pretty gross texture. Perhaps safetyhammer can work his magic like he has on several others so far on it, otherwise I don't think it will make it in for release.

I'm wondering, how would one go about porting it over for New Vegas? I guess you'd have to change the item numbers, among other things? I've never made a mod for Fallout 3 or New Vegas so I have no idea where to start. I really love this mod, in part because it's a good gun for the game and in part because it's modeled after my favorite real world shotgun, the Colt 1878.

Classic Fallout Weapons: New Vegas (also linked in the OP) adds that gun to NV, already. It's called the "Widowmaker" and comes in both sawed-off and full-length versions.

Well... it is their goal. But it's secondary to them wanting to give a more openly customizable and "Choose which and what you want" experience for the mod.
