You are right. Somehow from the official site I managed to get the Geck New Vegas 1.1. Still have the "You must close all open dialog boxes before saving" problem

It counts scripts and such as dialog boxes, I believe. Might just be unsaved portions, though, and the error messages popup, invisible, but still preventing you from saving the whole project. The Geck was made by someone sadistic.

Is there something that makes the inventory and selling system a little more user friendly? Going through my inventories to find or sell stuff takes me forever since I have to do nearly everything one at a time and if I hit the wrong button all the work I just did is for not.

Cream-of-Plenty posted:Yeah, thanks for the heads up, but you can't actually link to the official download on Bethesda's site because it's blocked by an age verification page. Everything about the GECK page on Bethesda's site is rear end backwards, anyway. At least replace the .html extension with .php. That way people'll land there, get past the age + country junk, then they can close their tab and reopen the link. It sets a cookie and works for me on the second try.

Cream-of-Plenty posted:It won't load any data because you're probably not using the right version...either you accidentally downloaded an FO3 version or you're using an outdated NV version (which is easy to do if you downloaded it from the official site). You need to get GECK 1.4 for NV, but you're better off Googling for download links. Bethesda's own site is messed up and misleading because it was written by a nine year old. Good luck! To make it easier, I just threw the drat thing up on my dropbox. You can link this from the OP http://dl.dropbox.com/u/70742/Files/GECK_NVE_v1.4.zip and I'll update it if a new version comes out.

There is a standalone inventory sorter available here, with relatively recent updates for it. I can't personally vouch for it. Project Nevada also has options to enable inventory sorting, if you happen to be using that mod already. I'm currently using the feature and it works quite well for the most part.

So, has anyone else given the NVR Team's Freeside Overhaul a shot yet? Overall it seems pretty... empty. There are a lot of spaces where interiors are waiting to be filled in (some of them even have distinctive signage up to say what the building's going to be once the interiors are added) and the population's super low. It feels unfinished. One thing I like about it though is that the southern area where the Kings and the gate to the strip is are nicer and better kept than the North, which seem to have been left as the poor and slummy part of town. I'm not sure though if that's just because they haven't gotten around to it yet though.

Any of you who are more mod-inclined know if there is some way to add key-chain like objects, probably has something to do with the ui.xml files? I asked Darn about it when the game came out and he said he would get around to looking into it for me but then I stopped playing and he hasn't been around in forever... The short answer for what I'd like to do if it helps anyone is add a keychain system to all the crafting bullshit that clutters up the inventory (why didn't they do this in the first place  ) like, LEAD 2300

Heads up to anyone using FOOK and OWB, FOOK changes Med-X's base effect and it makes a rather prominent feature (Stealth Suit MkII do some very unpleasant (albeit avoidable and not game-crashing) things (It injects Med-X until you run out). To fix, you either have to edit the script or edit Med-X back to the proper base effect until they patch it. The former can be found at FormID xx00C7DC. e: Made a temporary hotfix until FOOK updates if it happens to you. Just load it the end, it only changes the script to work with FOOK.

 I made the mistake of taking "High Value Target" (from More Traits) as a trait during character creation. I figured it would be like the assassin attacks in Tribunal. As it turns out? No, it really isn't. Fuckers teleport in out of nowhere whenever I go near Novac. They're wearing armour that deflects everything I fire at them (including 40mm grenades that do 60+ damage), can kill me in seconds, and usually two of them spawn within arms' reach holding automatic weapons. It is not remotely fair and I have no idea how you're meant to deal with this trait without staying away from Novac and grinding like a motherfucker for a month or so. I can't even use my usual technique of performing sneak attack critical headshots from extreme range, because they don't actually exist until I walk into town.

I think it's Requiem for a Capital Wasteland causing the bug with SINK. I only had that mod after moving everything else out of the folder, and it still crashes. I can't try the area without it the mod, else my character reverts to a generic character without any quests or items.

Looking for some QA on a few different mods I've looked up, to see what good and bad experiences people have had, since I won't be able to check them out for several hours!  Operation Fixed Terrain: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=41094 Maybe a bit superfluous, but it might be kind of nice to help make things a little more streamlined in the game world. Some people in the comments were saying their framerate dumped when they hit Novac, though, so I'm a little cautious. Area 51 - Project Roswell: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=42647 There are actually two Area 51 mods on the Nexus, but this one appears to be more focused on exploration and setting a tone over a heavy combat focus. Very interested in this one. (Open to hearing about either, though  )Dog City Denver: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=41751 Based off of some Van Buren stuff, seems to be a quest-based mod with a new location. Potentially cool, but sometimes these things can be bug-ridden or full of crap. Reinforced Chinese Stealth Suit: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=35130 Neat looking armor, but I'm not sure if this will bug out with Project Nevada's stealth changes? It hasn't been updated in ages. Underwater Home: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36121 After the poo poo noises added to UHNV, finding a new place to call home is important. The lighting in this place though, wow. I'm pretty sure I tried out this mod, or some variation of it, last November, and if this is the same one, I'm really shocked with how far it's come. Is this place as awesome as the screenshots make it look? Interior Lighting Overhaul - Realistic Interiors: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=35794 I remember using something akin to this for Fallout 3 back in the day, but I'm not sure if it's still necessary / noticably useful since the Imaginator came out with Emittance. I'll probably end up downloading all of these when I get home anyways, but I'm curious about what opinions you guys have. I trust your opinions very much!

I haven't noticed Operation Fixed Terrain at all, which I suppose means it does its job well.  Otherwise, I've done some testing with Interior Lighting Overhaul but didn't take any screenshots, but if you want to try it out, go to the metal stair case room in the REPCONN facility - it's quite pretty. However, there's a lot of moments where I curse the thing because I sometimes see so little (even with the flashlight activated) I have to go solely by the red blips on my radar, which makes me contemplate deactivating it even though it produces a nice atmosphere. Can you sell "Emittance" a bit?

While we're at it, any opinions on Vurts Wasteland Flora Overhaul: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=39856 From the screens it looks pretty, but it also almost looks like too much. Any people know if it adds to or sacrifices my precious immersion? Also all the Buenos, Ojo & Poco seem to update every week or two. This week added more Novac building and misc items if you want to update your wicked sweet textures.

The Wasteland Flora mod has the option to only copy over the textures and meshes without the .esp, in which case it just replaces what's there with higher resolution trees/bushes/flowers. It does become too much if you disable the .esp, imo.

acidreflux posted:I haven't noticed Operation Fixed Terrain at all, which I suppose means it does its job well. Thanks for the words about OFT, I'll definitely have to try it out. As for Imaginator: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=39619 , it's basically an all-in-one light output / contrast / saturation / filter mod, so you can tweak your heart away to change how the game looks. The Emittor (light output) option has several different presets that change the amount that lights will put out, and alter the bloom effects a bit. That's really all that I use it for, since it works well with Simple Street Lights and Nevada Skies at nighttime, but I bet it plays well with ILO, so maybe the brighter lights from the Imaginator would help out. It's nothing dramatic (I use the URWL preset) but it's definitely noticable. I actually just tried out the Wasteland Flora mod yesterday, and it basically turned Goodsprings into a jungle. I think I'll have to listen to your tip and turn off the .esp

I think I have two mods that do incompatible things with Gauss weapons. I've got recipes for two different kinds of 2mm ammunition - "2mm electronic cartridge", which is naturally armour piercing, and "2mm EC round", which is 'plain' but also has anti-armour and anti-personnel variants. I also have a Gauss pistol which accepts the former but not the latter. So: - how do I figure out which two mods are doing this? - once I've figured it out and picked one to remove, how do I safely remove it? Will items created by the mod just vanish, or do I have to bury them out in the desert somewhere?

The quickest way would be to load up your entire list, find the ammo you want to get rid of and delete it(The ammo will just disappear). Then go to the weapons(under items) and find the weapons that you want to change. Click edit, set the ammo to whatever list the other gauss weapon uses, then save it as .esp and run it at the bottom of your load list. It's just modding a part of a mod out of the game. This will take 5 minutes max and it shouldn't interfere with the rest of your mods. Alternatively use FOMM to open the packages individually and check to see which one puts that ammo in the game and delete that mod entirely. Depending on how many mods you run this may take a while though.
