Hey guys, hate to be that guy who just drops by and dumps his load order but I need some help. It's my first time modding New Vegas so I'm not running many mods.

FalloutNV.esm
Project Nevada - Core.esm
Project Nevada - Equipment.esm
MoMod.esm
Project Nevada - Cyberware.esp
Project Nevada - Rebalance.esp
CRL9K_ThisMachineSound.esp
Fellout.esp
Readius_NV.esp
CASM.esp

Total active plugins: 10
Total plugins: 10

Problem I'm having is that every so often the game just randomly crashes. I remember having a similar problem with FO3 but I can't remember the solution.

So I removed all of FNV Enhanced Shaders file from my root directory and removed the .esp and now whenever I try to load a save it just loads forever, and if I alt tab out it just kind of hangs, like it's trying to bring the game up but it can't.

Try moving CASM.esp to the top of your load order and Fellout.esp to the bottom.

In addition to what Gyoru was saying (which you should definitely do), how often is "often"? Is it during long sessions, or does it sometimes happen within 5-10 minutes of starting the game? CTDs shouldn't be too common, especially with a slim loadout like yours, but the occasional crash isn't something to worry about.

Are there any mods that actually make you look like the Burned Man? I mean I'm using the Authentic Burned Man but the ability to wear the facewrap(through facial hair when you're at character creation) only covers the face and not your neck.

Okay so I've been poking through the GECK and if I try to set the Joshua Graham playable armour to the same Biped Model as the Joshua Graham NPC file, I can't actually find the NVDLC02/Armor/Jgraham blah blah etc, as if it doesn't exist? But the Joshua Graham NPC armor is clearly pointing to that directory.

Is there anything that does a good job of replacing the Flamer/Incinerator texture/flame effects? I have been using the poo poo out of the Flamer, and it's sort of disappointing to have such an awful fire effect.

Looks like Nevada Skies posted some files today that make installing a bit easier. URWL was compiled into one master ESM and the set of files required for 6.3 and 7.0+ are pretty obvious now.

That looks like a texture with some bad parallaxing. If those are default textures, it might possibly be a combination of video settings and drivers.

Are you using Detailed Normals? If so, disable it; it's made to work only with the vanilla textures, otherwise you get oddities like that.

Glossiness is caused by several things... but one of the things is an incorrect normal map. So like CH said, if you're using some sort of detailed normals mod or something, that might be doing it.

If it's just blank you need the latest version of GECK which should be in the OP. 1.4 is what you need IIRC.

As in, you're trying to load FalloutNV.esm in the GECK and nothing loads? You need the latest version of GECK (1.4), which can be difficult to find on Bethesda's website because it's designed by dickheads.

I'm a girl, and you're
gnomes, and it's like
what? Yikes.
I have two issues.

First, I installed New Vegas Restoration and Freeside Restoration during my last playthrough, the character had already been in Vegas for some time, and had no problems. When I started my new character I remember reading that NVR could bug out quest hooks or something, and it was necessary to disable those mods until you reached the first time Vegas, so my new character just reached vegas and is inside the Lucky 38 suite, I turned them both on, and now the game will crash every time I click the Info button on my pipboy. Disabling all the restoration mods stops the crash. Anything I can do to make these mods work again?

Second, new character is primarily energy weapons, but I've been having problems with sights on the laser rifle/pistol. I can zoom in with the rifle, but when I fire it puts the gun in my face so I can't see anything but the back of it until I release the zoom. The pistol isn't as bad, but it does cover the targeting sights when I fire it zoomed in. I just installed EVE to see if it would help and also because it looks pretty cool. With EVE enabled, everything is the same except the rifle is in my face all the time when zoomed now, not just after firing. This isn't a big deal since I just got a scope for the rifle and the pistol is pretty crap anyways, but I'd be interested in to see what's up. My guess is it's either Project Nevada or the Weapon Retexture Project (which I guess has no esps or esms as it doesn't show up in my load order, but it's installed via FOMM mod list).

You might want to leave The Strip/Freeside completely, save & exit, then enable the mods and travel back. Being inside the Lucky 38 might not be enough.

Did you get the Weapon Animation Replacer? It changes how your guns are held when drawn too, it might solve that problem.

And yes, the huge NMC files are version 1.0, the patches bring that up to 1.3, so you want them.

I really like the skies in Nevada Skies, and the effect it seems to have on lighting in the game, but the weather effects are terrible and seem to randomly make daytime unrealistically dark. The thermohydrograph or whatever it is has very limited options and also may not even be working. Does anyone know how to totally disable the weather in Nevada Skies?

Possibly she fell through the ground and is technically still there. Can you dismiss her to the Lucky 38 through one of the Companion Terminals (one at Gun Runners; one at Lucky 38)? I would say that you could just fast travel somewhere, but she might not appear with you if you told her to wait.

You have to enable the cheat menu in the Thermo Hygrograph in order to access the options that disable Rain, Radstorms, and Sandstorms. The other weather settings (deep blue, etc.) should be configurable from the thermo-hygrograph though.

EDIT: As far as disabling the weather, entirely, I'm not sure that would work without losing the skies it uses, as well.

Yeah, I've noticed this happening when switching between weather mods if you don't go through the process of making a clean save, sometimes even if you do. Not sure what causes it, but just waiting for a little while in an interior cell will usually put things back to normal.

For any of you who liked the really sweet NVBS armor mod, it's been removed and the author banned for apparent use of content from other games, though I was under the impression that it pretty much more or less used FNV content (riot armor + cass jacket) that was distinctive for having a really nice male and female version.

We should probably have it re-hosted because that thing is too good to let vanish.
