Is there any setting I can tweak in FNVEdit that actually makes my bullets go where I shoot them 100% of the time? No spread, no aim fuckery, I shoot a bullet, that's where it goes?

Try changing all the nonzero fGunSpread* values (except the fGunSpreadNPC* values) to 0.0001. I'm not sure how that'll affect shotguns, though.

You might also want to change the game setting "FAutoAimScreenPercentage" to -180. This makes it so auto-aim only kicks in directly behind you in first-person view (which is of course impossible). Though honestly, setting spread to zero on everything seems like it would make the game pretty easy (and render the Guns skill not very useful). XFO has a nice mod to guns that makes gun skill have a much more profound effect on your spread, so at 100 guns you're almost pinpoint accurate, but at low levels your aim is much worse. *edit* A lot if you're low, not at all if you're above. It's basically a "Can you even LIFT this weapon?" check. If you have low Strength there's a perk that lets you take 2 points off the STR requirement of every weapon, so that makes it a bit easier to use stuff like the anti-materiel rifle if you were previously playing a stealthy/thiefy kind of character.

Yeah F3NV Project Reality looks like it'll be the definitive weather mod in the near future whenever version 3 comes out. At the moment though (after extensive usage) it has some glitches that are pretty annoying where it'll revert back to vanilla lighting and weather in some areas. This is without fast travel and from memory a specific cell around Lady Gibson's Shack has this problem. Hopefully version 3 will address these issues, as well as the issue of clouds not matching weather in all instances (raining with clear skies).

This is without fast travel and from memory a specific cell around Lady Gibson's Shack has this problem. Hopefully version 3 will address these issues, as well as the issue of clouds not matching weather in all instances (raining with clear skies). I actually mentioned this in the comment thread and he mentioned that he's fixed that bug in the next version. Nevada Skies did this for me too - apparently the vanilla weather is really, really pushy in New Vegas for some reason, so it constantly kicks in with fast travel, or in certain spots, even if you've got a custom climate pattern in place. Question for the Armory guys: Have you done any meshes/textures for modified base weapons? I've had this idea for a more "unified" system for weapon mods in the base game, inspired by the small set of very adaptable weapon mods you use in the Armory, but I think the base game doesn't have much in the way of graphics for modded weapons. I'm using WME right now, but what bugs me about it is basically every gun has its own set of 3 mods, even when most of the mod effects are identical across different weapons (examples: nearly every weapon has its own form of extended magazine, every caliber has its own silencer). While this might make sense with modular attachments, the fact that every attachment is permanent suggests that attachments in NV are more like weapon modification kits, where you take some basic parts and fit them permanently to your weapon of choice. From a gameplay perspective, it's also a pain to have to track down the EXACT set of mods you need for every single gun, especially considering they aren't dropped by anything (the crafting mod helps alleviate this, but it also ends up adding a TON of stuff to the crafting list). Long story short, my plan was to try to reduce the number of weapon mods to the basic set used by the armory, while still allowing the full 3 modifications on most guns, but I have absolutely no modelling ability (or software, for that matter), so I can't really do much beyond tweaking the few vanilla attachments on my own.

I just finished Silver Peak Bunker. It's one of the better housing mods I've tried. The questline is straightforward enough, although one quest, involving access to a sealed off storage area is just vague enough to be annoying. The NPC pathing seems screwy, and the power armor included in the mod is pretty strong, but not to the degree you'd normally see. The voice acting, for what little there is, is passable. The only real problem I had with it was the NPC who sells you the dummies getting gibbed instantly during one of the quests, thus forcing me to resurrect her through the console. Also, if you're running Project Nevada, make sure you grab the PN compatibility patch which is, strangely, NOT listed on the files page, but is instead linked under Mirrors. (Obviously all it does is add in visor support for the included power armor, including both the Enclave poo poo from FO3 and the Midwestern Brotherhood armor from Tactics.)

Where are your FalloutNV, Old World Blues, Honest Hearts, and Dead Money.esms?  That's absolutely your problem. They should be in the same folder with the rest of those mods--or rather, the rest of your mods should be in the same folder as the original game's master files. That's your Steam \ SteamApps \ Common \ FalloutNV \ Data folder. If they aren't there, something has gone horribly wrong and you need to run Steam's Verify Cache Integrity so it can find problems and re-download whatever it thinks it is missing.

Installed that mannequin mod all up in the sink. Was pretty boss at first, until I realized the fuckers were trying to follow me around Dr. Who angel style. Scared the poo poo out of me to turn around in goodsprings and find my well armed, well dressed mannequin millitia striking poses behind me like this was just another day hanging out at banana republic or some poo poo. I swear to god one of them shot a hostile NPC... but god only knows which one. You look at them and the fuckers are all still again.

I just went from Western Skies to Project Reality. It's pretty good, but it seems a little under-saturated. Admittedly, the problem with WS is it is way way way over saturated, so the change is pretty jarring. There is definitely something wrong with night time inside New Vegas. It really looks like it's all grey scale. I waited a few hours for it to become daytime it was ok then. I seem to be getting a lot of cell transition crashes now too, not sure if that is because of Project Reality or not.Kharmakazy posted:Installed that mannequin mod all up in the sink.

As for CTDs, I can't remember when my game was as stable and crash free as it's been since I switched to Project Reality. Probably sometime before I installed my first weather mod, which was ages ago.

I just tried to standardize things for all weapons. Unfortunately over the long period of time that I've been working on things and due to the difference in age for a lot of weapons along with the varying art quality it's been hard to keep the graphics consistent. So adding a silencer attachment will add... whatever silencer I decided to put on it. I think what you're trying to say is that you want to implement the same sort of universalization/standardization that TA uses on stock weapons? That's certainly doable though you'll have to make some new modkits by duplicating existing ones or get creative with the interpretation like I do sometimes for modkits that don't fit at all with the existing ones. You also don't need any art skills to change out bits on weapons with FNV. Nifskope alone is good for that so long as you can handle its quirks. It can be pretty much like virtual lego once you get good at it.

Alright, jumping into this game upon high recommendation. I want to experience the game's story and graphics as vanilla as I can, but at the same time, I'd like to enhance the gunplay a bit. I know these games aren't meant for  FPS action but if FO3 was any indication, I'd just want something that makes either shooting or looting/scrounging for weapon loots anymore enjoyable. Ideally I might want something like the Armory, but it seems that having that many weapons might break the game or might make the difficulty too high. This will be my first playthrough so I don't want to hit any mod-induced snags.So what is the go-to "This mod will make shooting more funner" mod?

BexGu posted:I just got Fallout New Vegas from the Steam sale, is the OP still up to date with the best mods to use? Or is a other good general pack to improve the weather, graphics, add some perks, etc. NMC's Texture Mod has been released and upgrades alot more stuff than Poco Bueno. Survivalist Bunker seems to have taken over Underground Hideout as the preferred player home. It's definitely more straightforward, less buggy, and easier to use; but UH still has a few things like dressup mannequins, growable veggies, and mail order ammo that it doesn't. Nevada Skies is bloated and buggy and increases you infinite loading screen crash frequency alot, so people are switching to Project Reality, but there is no way to control the settings until the next version, so you will have to deal with a desaturated light blue filter. Personally I uninstalled it and use Fellout / Directors Chair / etc. and just go without weather. Lots of problems with World of Pain, consensus seems to be it has become crap. And I want to plug Imp's More Complex Needs. It makes you keep track of your calorie/protein/nutrient intake, as well as changing how food heals you, etc. The only problem is - like with any mod that adds a feature - once you figure out how to eat 'correctly' you get a bunch of +stat bonuses that make some poo poo really easy. Right now I've got +1 Str, +1 End, +3 Cha, +1 Int, +2 Lck from eating well consistently for the past week.

The vanilla fps gameplay is better than it was in FO3, I'd just play through it once vanilla and if you want to change something via mods at least you'll have a point of reference. This is generally the type of advice everyone playing the game for the first time gets. There is actually a decent game to be played here without mods so there's no reason for someone who is just starting to go too crazy.

Actually if you want to install the whole project nevada suite and just switch all of the rebalance settings back to vanilla to start it wouldn't really hurt either, you can re-tweak them via the menu according to your tastes as you play and the equipment in the mod is really well done and immersive. I do recommend downloading the patch that switches food back to normal, I dunno what the hell they were thinking there but it's the one time I've seen the team fall victim to retarded feature creep.

Right now I'm playing PN with mostly vanilla settings, HP's are a bit lower and ammo / food is rarer, but the big change I made is setting XP to 50% and 1 perk / level (you really need a more perks mod for that). I've done most of the missions up through Helios 1, and I'm only approaching level 9.
