Gun looks like rear end, but I'm gonna be curious to see how he manages the reload animation. Perhaps he found a revolver animation in the two handed files after all - I've been far too busy to go through each and every reload letter to find out for myself.

I was thinking she'd end up using the Single-Shot Shotgun reload to animate throwing another speed-loader into the cylinder. That, or that the entire cylinder is ejected and a new one is inserted.

Man, why does the performance in this game just blow so hard? I've got MNC's texture pack installed along with nevada skies and a few other graphics stuff, and while running around outside I'm getting roughly 80fps with max graphics, but it just stutters like crazy.

I made a post one or two pages ago with what you can do to alleviate this.

What exactly does enabling Shader Model 3.0 shaders through Configurator do? I mean, do I need to provide my own after enabling them? I'm not really noticing a difference in visual quality. Enabling threading has helped a lot with frame rate smoothness though.

As I understand it, it doesn't technically do *anything*. The Configurator simply turns a 0 to a 1 in the ini so that the engine can use Shader 3.0. Technically, you have to go into the shader folder, make a copy of one shader and rename it to overwrite another shader. I've tested this out with both Fo3 and NV and haven't noticed anything visually or performance-wise.

Isn't Shader Model 3.0 also really, really out of date? I know the Radeon 5000 series uses SM 5.0.

I'm having a problem. I used the steam tool to put this game on my ssd but regardless of whether I use any mods or not, the textures flip out(some turning black or disappearing at different angles and returning to normal at others). Is this just a bug with the game when installed on an ssd and is there a fix? Has anybody else had this problem? When I move the game back to my regular drive, the problem goes away.

Shader Model 4.0 and 5.0 are DX10 and 11 only respectively. It's not that uncommon for games to still use SM 2.0.

EDIT: Is this gun from OWB or AG Uniques OWB add-on? It's called the Static Bomb Launcher, it uses an MF Breeder, has high DPS AND it has an AOE health drain effect. And it looks like a toy sci-fi pistol. It owns.

I'm... not sure that would work as I understand things but then again, the Verdict C77P in my pack is a perfect example of something I didn't think would work but did with a perfect blend of animation calls.

But as I said, I'm curious to see how it would. Though if the whole cylinder comes out I'll just lol and move on cuz that poo poo's kinda lame.

You know between the ease of customization and the apparent space and availability of the whole operation, I'm having a hard time calling the loft mod an outright failure. The posters seem to mostly suck mind but hey, as demonstrated you can put whatever you want in there easily.


Though that said I don't bother with house mods at all and just put everything in the Lucky 38 or The Sink so maybe I shouldn't be talking.

That's one thing I like about the AG Uniques - the weapons that are added really run the gamut, give you more toys to play with. (Though some of them are a little odd...like "Little Shooty" for instance. A low-damage .38 special pistol? Sign me up!)

Wish there was. To be honest, /wg/ is the only reason I use 4chan. There's a Greasemonkey script that can disable words and just display pictures, I think it's 4chan+ or something. Other than that you can search other places in the web, or if you are brave enough, look through /wg/ archived threads on the 4chan archive (don't do it).

Edit: Actually looks like 4chan+ is a Chrome extension.

I used Little Shooty for quite a while on my newest character. Chiefly because it reloads so much faster than the .357, while shooting the same ammo.

The suitcase is for modded companions, not the player. If you want the Courier to have infinite ammo, then load the cheat .esp for the mod, get a companion, and take some of the companion's ammo. The ammo will automatically be replenished as you use it.

Okay, I'm working on this again, and all the old links are kaput.

This is my Unified Backpack Mod.

http://www.mediafire.com/?pcdnd682x29xiwn (this is the same link as above, but more blatant)

If you are trying to find it on the Nexus, forget it, I'm not going to upload it, since I borged together the existing backpack mods completely without permission, remorse, or a sense of propriety. Also I am lazy, fat, smell bad, and am a terrible person.

What this does is make one unified, reasonable, cherry-picked group of backpacks that work alike, don't conflict, and most importantly, are out there, being used. You will find backpacks on NPC's in the wasteland in ways that actually make sense! NCR troopers have NCR backpacks, Crazed Raider-types have old grungy vault backpacks and whatever their latest victim was carrying, there are fanny packs, traders have all kinds of packs, and there are lots of reasonable, lore-freindlyish versions. No ultramodern digital camo here.

This is the same version I dropped into the forums before, no changes yet. Basically, this will meet your needs to to get NPC's wandering around the desert with backpacks!

To do list:
  • making them work in the DLC's (Basically see if I need to do anything special, I haven't started the DLC's yet, so :iiam:)
  • look at the possibility of making the packs work like containers
  • see if I can figure out how to do the bedrolls from the leather backpacks mod
  • start putting random piles of them around, add them to more spots where you can find them, etc.
  • oooo another backpack model to stea... incorporate
  • get rid of the box in goodsprings right next to the workbenches (facing the wrong, way, too!) where all the backpacks can be found, as I am pretty sure they work now.

also if you guys have requests (people who ought to have packs seem to not have them, etc) or can point out problems, let me know.

Cream-of-Plenty, could you stick a link for this this up in the first post?

How do they work? Whatever I have currently, I assume Project Nevada, adds 50 lbs, but when you get to 25 over your normal max, you lose 1 AGL, and when you hit the new limit you lose 2. Also, would this conflict with PN if they are from that, and would I have to edit PN's out to use yours?

You have to extract all of them first because part1, part2, etc in a rar filename indicates it's a split volume archive. For instance, extract everything by extracting from NMC.part1.rar into a folder called "NMC Texture Pack for New Vegas (Large/Medium/Small/whatever)" then create a new rar from the folder.

Aw this is a good tip thanks.

Unless your FPS is over your moniters refresh rate (e.g. you always have great FPS) there is no reason to have V-Sync on, ever. It will hurt you more than it helps, sometimes significantly (as in the above guys case).

Yeah, I've told a few people recently that they need to set "ipresentinterval" to 0 in the ini in order to actually disable it. It should be the first thing most people do when they're setting their game up.
