Davos posted:Just finished installing all my desired mods, but when I start up the game Project Nevada gives me some error message about not having the HUD extensions installed. I've no idea what this is referring to and Google can't seem to find me any answers, anyone have a clue? Also, the Weapon Mod Menu keeps saying I don't have the menu files for the mod and to reinstall, which I've done 5 times to apparently no avail, and the only file there even seems to be in the rar is the .bsa itself. It sounds like you don't have Mod Configuration Menu (MCM) installed, which is a dependence for PN and WMM. Try this and see if that doesn't fix the errors.

So, I posted earlier about game breaking lag that appeared out of nowhere, having project reality and project nevada installed. I ran the game with all the mods disabled and the lag persists, even in earlier saves. I just wanna shoot peoples faces

Naky posted:I don't want to speak for millenia but I think one of the reasons the energy weapons have been avoided is a lack of real world references to use for wear n tear, grunge, etc. I have no experience so I am probably talking out of my rear end but how does it matter if they're energy weapons or traditional firearms? They're made of the same material and some are even resembling the traditional ones in shape. I understand personal preference, though, just wanted to ask someone who knows this stuff.

Upmarket Mango posted:I'm using Electro-City Imaginator with the "Overall Nice Enhancement" preset enabled and Project Reality with everything disabled except for the "Pleasant" weather cycle. Since you're using what I'm using, try these settings in Imaginator :  (no cinematic presets or hollywood styles active, these shaders installed) Brightness and contrast may require tweaking based on what kind of a monitor you have. The above settings are on my monitor completely compatible with Interior Lighting Overhaul. I used to have it overbearingly yellow/blue when I was using only Nevada Skies and nothing else:  This is the same almost clear blue weather on PR and Imaginator with the settings above:  Be warned though, as said by other posters the weird excessive reflection in the light maps can't be completely eliminated by any known means so the 'covered-in-spoo' element will always be present one way or another.

I've got MCM installed, just redownloaded and installed it for the 5th time and still I get that same Weapon's Mod Menu error, same with the Project Nevada one. Guess I'll just start playing and see if there are any actual problems with them in game. Edit: Seems that MCM does seem to be the problem, but I have no idea why. When I pause it says that MCM is not loaded correctly and tells me to reinstall it (did that), update my Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (did that), or alter my Firewall/UAC settings (which I'm not really sure why that would interfere with the mod at all). Still doesn't work. Davos fucked around with this message at 23:58 on Jul 8, 2012 |

Is entering an interior cell to find yourself stuck inside the body of an enemy or bucket of misc items a vanilla glitch, or probably something else? The former happens on the second floor of the Bison Steve and the latter in Victor's Shack. I'm suspicious that the New Bison Steve is the culprit.

Arenovalis posted:http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/46981 Very nice. I cannot wait to try it out. On a related note, can someone with firearms experience explain why there's a scope on a revolver? How are you supposed to shoot when you're holding the scope to your eye? Wouldn't you simply injure your wrist from the recoil?

Merry Magpie posted:Very nice. I cannot wait to try it out. You put a scope on a pistol for pretty much the same reasons you put one on a rifle. However, pistol scopes have more eye relief so you don't have to hold it very close to get a complete sight picture. This article has a picture (click to embiggen), you can see the fellow in the foreground with a pretty good distance between his eye and the scope, and at least one guy in the line holding a smaller-caliber handgun rather closer. Also, worry about your face, not your wrist. Scope cuts suck.

As for recoil, a proper grip will help mitigate recoil. .44 Magnum is stout, no doubt about it, but out of something what looks like a 6 3/8" barrel, it's not too terribly bad if you've got a good grasp on basic shooting fundamentals. Plus you could always through some powderpuff .44 Specials through it and laugh as that heavy as poo poo frame soaks up all the recoil for you Kinda miss my .44 Smith. Don't miss paying for ammo, though. Good going, Arenovalis. Might have to start a new game sometime  E: Jesus christ, handguns at 500y minimum? drat.

Merry Magpie posted:Thank you both, that was informative. Those too, but no. Scopes are metal tubes. Even if they have a rubber eyepiece for comfort, it's still a thin piece of soft rubber between you and a thin rolled metal edge aimed at your head. Combine that with recoil forces and, if you are unlucky and bad at holding guns, you can whack yourself in the head with the end of your scope when you pull the trigger. For your troubles you get a gash in your head that may require stitches. I think the highest number I've heard personally was 12, scope slid back along the side of his head and opened him up as it went. Edit: That's a pretty loving big outlier, I failed to mention. Mostly you just get a little nick around your eye socket like so. Remora fucked around with this message at 20:43 on Jul 9, 2012 |

Just so people know, when I did TA, I thought about making a number of the elcan/short range scopes and such with transparent lenses so you can aim through that way but decided against it. Firstly because there are only a very small handful of resources I can use to accomplish that task and secondly because I thought it took up so much screen real estate anyway that there wasn't much point to doing it that way. I did leave a few weapons that operate in that manner but there aren't a lot.

The scope iron-sights thing is only cool when the scope is actually magnified, so you can still see things in your peripheral but ADS allows you to zoom in on targets at the same time. Very few games implement something like this, though!

Are you saving the normal map with alpha intact? That means either DXT5 or RGBA 8.8.8.8 uncompressed. The alpha map contains the specular map in the alpha channel, which controls the lighting, so that seems like a likely reason.

Because Arenovalis has inspired me and mostly because he makes fun of me on IRC, I am redoing my Armbreaker mesh to, as he says, 'get with the times' and 'stop being an old fuddy duddy and learn how to use 3ds max and next gen techniques'. So I am redoing it with the whole high poly -> normal bake -> low poly and will endevour to texture it like he does. Which means I will end up sobbing in the corner when I realize I don't have any crayons with the colors he uses.

I cannot, for the goddamn life of my, figure out what's wrong with my mods. Every single time it says The Weapons Mod Menu is missing files and to reinstall, then it says Project Nevada is missing its Hud Extensions, then if I pause MCM says its missing files and doesn't work. I have reinstalled all of these a dozen times, redownloaded and reinstalled, etc. and I cannot figure out what could possibly be wrong. Google brings up no solutions whatsoever. I was thinking that maybe Darnified UI was somehow screwing things up but if that's the case I have no idea what the hell is wrong there, everything I search for yields nothing. Only thing that seemed like it might be it was MCM's readme saying to use the Unified Hub Project, which I have now used and it's helped absolutely nothing. I tried uninstalling Darnified but if I do that (delete Menus folder, Texture folders involving Darnified, alter Fonts section in ini, and deactive the mod itself in FOMOD) that just seems to end up breaking my whole drat game as it crashes before getting to the main menu. Anyone have any clue what's my problem here? Edit: Figured it out, I'm an idiot. I forgot to turn on Archive Invalidation in FOMM. Davos fucked around with this message at 19:28 on Jul 10, 2012 |
