SourceElement posted:I was browsing the Gun Runners' inventory and found a "Quad Shotgun" for relatively cheap. The name is right: four barrels of killing power. It is The Best Gun.  EDIT: So I've been tinkering around with the latest build of Project Nevada 2.1. They've scrapped the rather cumbersome original menu in favor of using MCM, which allows you to tweak and customize the overhaul a lot more than before. Want to manually adjust the rarity levels for every tier of food loot? You can do that. Set the encumbrance multiplier to some arbitrary amount? You can do that too. Now that there are literally pages of adjustable variables, the mod's starting to remind me a whole lot more of FWE, and I think that's going to please a lot of people who are looking for a harder wasteland experience. They've also introduced WMX support for the additional guns, so you can pimp out your .22 revolver or auto-gauss. I've been using it in conjunction with: Better Companions v1.1 which disables magic companion auto-heal after combat and removes their unlimited ammo. It also enables them to use doctor bags and antivenom, and fixes their passive / aggressive modes so they won't blow your cover when you're sneaking around. Manual Reload which prevents weapons from automatically reloading when they're swapped out or empty, so backup weapons are actually useful now and you aren't forced into a reloading animation in the middle of a firefight. More Realistic Aiming another highly-customizable MCM mod that mimics aiming "jitter" when using iron-sights, and factors in things like hunger, thirst, and sleep deprivation to magnify those effects. This game's hard as balls now.

Yeah, I found the quad shotgun a short while ago myself at the same place. High ammo consumption due to 4 shots a round but it's amazingly powerful. About The Armory, the companion gun problem solved itself after I enabled the optional esp. Thing is, I never found the briefcase at goodsprings and it just worked. I still can't get Tabitha to use any new weapon however, even vanilla ones. So I really don't know what the exact problem could be, but I should probably just let it go and be glad everyone else uses weapons I give them now.

BTW, this is why Lily initially could not use weapons like Mercy or Oh, Baby! We patched in the updated formlist to allow those. N.B.: Super Mutants have very limited animation sets, so most weapons are excluded by default for a very good reason.

Like a shotgun with a revolver cylinder or some poo poo (yeah, I know it doesn't work that way, but it sounds cool in my head Bioshock 2 has a shotgun that can be upgraded to have two revolver cylinders, be charged with a tesla coil, and on top of that it can use phosphorous ammo. It looks exactly as awesome as it sounds and would totally work in the Fallout universe.

What's the best wearable cigarette mod? I have this one, but it gets all screwy if I try to wear the cigarette and I don't know where the conflict could possibly be. Smoking works fine, though. Also Nevada Skies seems kind of neat but I get a weird problem where the clouds don't pop in until 15 seconds after I've gone outside. And last but not least, it's pretty irritating that the Readius disables the light every time you use it, does anyone have any other recommendations for pipboy removing mods? Not having that dumb thing on my arm is my main concern, though it's a shame since the rest of Readius is pretty cool.

Requiem updated finally but the file's split in half using hjsplit. It has a (lovely and awkward) installer/updater that takes forever to execute its task. The upside is it has a lot of fixes, and is supposed to fix the pathfinding issues.

For use with the Armory, is there a (mod for a) shop that draws from the same lists as the Gun Runners so having a very broad stock, but doesn't only sell 100% condition weapons? Mint weapons just cost so much.

I'm trying to find a mod that removes the HUD messages or whatever for Dead Money's collar beeping. Not to go all "MY IMMERSION!  " but I can drat well hear the thing beeping, I don't need to be flooded with messages while hopping in and out of the radio fields until I find them. But all I can find is retarded mods to disable the thing, or outright bypass Dead Money.Edit 1: So I decided it'd be faster to just edit the drat scripts myself -- all I gotta do is remove a pair of ShowMessages, after all. But TESSnip and FNVEdit suck for editing scripts and can't compile them besides. I assume I have to use the GECK, but it refuses to load the master file. Edit 2: Edit 3: Disregard this, I'm a big retarded babby who had her ESP open in FNVEdit, preventing it from being overwritten. (You'd think these terrible tools would throw up an error message when this happens.) Jan fucked around with this message at 23:04 on Jun 29, 2011 |

A while ago, I ripped the recoil script out of that other lovely overhaul mod, only to find PN had something very similar I'll have to get back to you on the scope wobble interference, but I can confirm that there isn't any issue with regular iron sights. Unless Manual Reload released an update after NVSE 2.0 was released, I believe there's some sort of issue with trying to get the two to work together (since Manual Reload thinks NVSE 2.0 is older than NVSE 1.0 beta 6 and freaks out on my computer.) I just went into the .esp and ripped out a lot of the script's guts. Works like a charm now. I have to admit that I, too, have been pretty impressed with the quality of the mods for PN's weapons. My only gripe is that a lot of the mods are somewhat undervalued, like a ~300 cap night vision scope for the auto-gauss when .357 barrel extensions are going for 800 or 900. Lazy_Liberal posted:Where are you guys finding PN Version 2.1 and this patch? I can only find version 2.0a on the nexus and the WMX patch isn't released yet. Like SheepNameKiller said, the PN team has a Google Code page that allows you to download revised builds and patches before they are officially released. I'm assuming a lot of the stuff on the site is free for public consumption, considering the site isn't locked out to people like me.

True, that is all stuff that will be resolved eventually though. I've been trying to get the PN guys to include Manual Reload as an option for Project Nevada. I think it fits along with the theme they have going on. Just found out the WMX guy is doing an update that will include Melee weapons, which is pretty sick. I'm playing an explosives/gently caress off rear end in a top hat right now, and I think my favorite part about it is the added Explosive Entries function that Project Nevada adds. Something pretty satisfying about blowing up safes and doors to get inside. Here is the Project Nevada Google Code page - http://code.google.com/p/project-nevada/ I was hesitant to give it out a while ago, but luckily the Project Nevada team is made up of the modders who aren't all  and drama.

I can't wait to try the enhanced shaders mod on my desktop at home. I tried it on my laptop but it basically slows things down too much with little visible improvement. I also need to get better about leaving stuff like both ESPs in mods like simple streetlights on. WMX with melee weapons is gonna be totally awesome! Does anyone know if the M weapons from AWOP work with perks? Someone on the Nexus commented that they want an update to a WMX compatibility patch that included M weapons, but when I'm shooting dudes with my lever action shotgun M they go flying back due to the And Stay Back perk.

I always thought some of the ammo types FO uses were weird. I know they're not meant to be super realistic, but really. How often would you ever come across 28 gauge shells? Also, food for modding thought(although I'm sure it's been done). http://www.taurususa.com/video-theJudge.cfm

Do any of the mods in my load order change, like, damage or the defense calculations? It seems everyone is way more bullet spongy than I remember when I played through in Vanilla, though I'm on hard mode now if that's what did it. And in any case, is there a recommended mod to make everyone die in a reasonable amount of shots (Reload)?

Armory dudes, can you recommend a good ammo crafting mod that has the best compatibility? I like some of the stuff the Alternate Armor System added but didn't really care for the armor changes and new ammo types that went with it. I'm really just looking for something that lets me craft all the vanilla ammo types and doesn't add anything new. Also, is it OK to use the leveled lists with the Cabinet Add-On?
