Any good clothes/armor mods that keep it simple and not "year 2495 SWAT Team bags everywhere" or "pedo anime mecha japanese laser beam"?

I'm not into mixing and matching like Tailor Maid and Satchels do, either.

For example, I'm talking about things like this, this or this.

OK, so I'm trying to edit the AG Supplementary Uniques' Wildcat .45 from the Honest Hearts .esp so that it uses the same beefy firing sounds that CRL9000 gives the standard .45 pistol and I'm running into some weird problems because I am dumb.

I've managed to get it to use the right sounds but now 1) all the other AG Honest Hearts uniques like the Alyx .224 and Madman SMG seem to have disappeared from the game (which isn't that big of a deal to me, all I care about is the Wildcat), and 2) the Wildcat now no longer takes mod kits. I thought all I had to do was edit the AG HH .esp so that the Wildcat uses sounds that CRL9000 replaces (the Wildcat uses the 10mm SMG sounds, which CRL9000 doesn't touch, so I switched it to use the new replaced 9mm pistol sounds), but that clearly isn't the case. What else do I need to do?

Could you edit the weapon to use the new sounds through FNVedit?

I wish one of the 1,000 weapon modders would start working on a sensible armor addition, armor is severely lacking in mods.

Is there a good tutorial anywhere on how to copy parts from one piece of armour and put them onto another using nifskope?

Can someone make me a mod that edits the lever action shotgun to 12 gauge? It should involve changing it's ammo list to ammo12GA, then the leveled lists (there should be three under withAmmo to spawn with 12ga ammo and casings). That should be everything.

I would do it myself but my Geck is totally broken and refuses to save files even after reinstalling, "Please close all dialog windows before saving".

The cork boards are usually where bounties are posted in New Vegas Bounties II, and I recall at least one of those locations having a poster. Maybe you didn't get the loose files for NVB2?

Is this a normal problem with the DLC, or something that could be caused by Honest Hearts Extended/Reunited and it Feels So Good/Better Burned Man, and in any case, does anyone know a fix or do I have to just reload my save from before going to Zion?

I'm looking for a good piece of headwear to go with Geonox Riot Armor, the desert ranger combat helmet looks stupid with it, and there's nothing else really fitting. I'd want to use the Burned Man's bandages but I don't have HH so I can't use those.

Also is there an IRC or something for this kind of stuff?

Ok so I'm about to start yet another playthrough and after recommendations from CoP here's what I'm changing in PN

code:

Difficulty - Normal, Hardcore Off
Weapon Damage Skill Influence - 50%
Ammo Rarity - 10%
Leveling Rate - 66%
Skill Point Penalty - (-4) 
Minimum Damage (DT Bleedthrough) - 15%
Alternative Repair ON

Now other people have mentioned both leveling and endurance multipliers. Where do I turn/change these and to what values? I only skimmed through the PN settings but didn't see them.

Also, what exactly does alternative repair change? I already have a repair mod (Realistic Repair), would this conflict with said mod?

And since I'm not doing a hardcore run (just finished one and while "fun", it just became a chore and sometimes broke the pace of my short gameplay since I work 80% of the day) should I make up by bumping the difficulty to hard or will the PN settings make the game hard enough?

I'm actually thinking of doing a no-repair skill of this run. Just basically use a weapon till it starts giving me problems then switch to whatever I find in the wastes or buy a new one but thanks for the info on the repair stuff.

Katanas are overplayed. I want a 1796 light cavalry saber for hacking my way through the wasteland. It could probably use the machete animations, and definitely needs the machete's bonus chance to cripple limbs (but a lot more DAM). I'm trying to do a melee runthrough, but Knock-Knock is too inelegant (aesthetically -- I want the sword to work like the axe with regard to DAM and body parts flying off) and the various FN FALs are too effective.

Quoting myself here, but why didn't anyone told me about the Gunslinger Outfit? It's really cool!

Here's a terribly compressed screenshot I took today while using it:

If you're finding that there's no challenge in one-shotting Super Mutants and Deathclaws, I might suggest looking up "Creatures Give You Hell" and "Rise of the Machines" on the Nexus. Those mods completely rework the game's creatures, boosting their DT, Health, and adding relevant perks that make them a challenge again. For example, a lot of Ghouls and robots had no rad resistance, and a lot of high-level Nightkin have less health than you.

That being said, I've had to go through both of those mods and scale back some of the settings--they were a little too rough. I think the author set the DT of Hardened Mk2 Sentry Bots to something insane, like 60, which makes them pretty tedious to fight. Dropping this to 40 DT made a lot more sense.

Hopefully you find those settings to your liking.

Lightsabers are from The Armory, right? (I don't think I have any other mods that would add them.) Where do you find the crystals to make them?
