Do a clean save: - With the mod enabled, go inside (in game, you dummy) - Save (not a quick-save, don't overwrite an old one) - Disable the mod - Start the game - Make a new save - Go outside and see if that fixed it - If not, load up the clean inside save and wait a week or two (in game, you dummy) Own problem: Anyone using The NVSE 4gb version having issues with the game hanging horribly on exit? Like, I need to kill off the .4gb executable in the process manager to get it to close.

I've been running into a bit of a problem with CCO's damage resistance module - I'm playing a character with the Determined trait (15 permanent damage threshold in exchange for being able to use chems) and into the past (5 damage threshold and 3 crit when wearing a piece of pre-war clothing), and my Pip-boy is showing me as having 27 DT but only 17 DR, despite the fact that I'm using all light armor. Anyone have any ideas? Edit: When I remove the pre-war hat my damage threshold goes down by five, but my DR stays the same. Very strange. Edit2: Got my DT up to 24 without the hat and my DR goes up to 19 as expected, seems to be a problem with how the into the past perk works with DR.

I saved the game and disabled the mod. When I loaded, the perception had stayed dropped four points as though the mod was still active. I tried playing again with the mod enabled, waited for a storm to start and end, and the perception and stealth were still messed up. Is there any way to fix this without using the console? Out of curiosity, why would you not want to use the console? It's probably the easiest way to fix the problem, especially if Gyshall's solution doesn't work.

Does everyone get really bad stuttering whenever distant textures and geometry pop-in? I'm only really running Fellout, Arenovalis' WRP, and Mission Mojave, so I don't think it could be one of my mods. Does reducing the draw distance help with that? That seems counterintuitive since it seems like things would be popping in more frequently, but I'm kind of at a loss. The game runs fine except for those moments where I see a mountain suddenly appear in the distance.

What happened to the 'shop' mod that added a ton of kickass futuristic weapons around the vegas area? Seems like there was a few and now that I've come back they're gone. I can't for the life of me remember their names. I'm assuming the mod owners tore their mods down in fits of rage, but I'd like to know for sure.

You've got so many mods. What I would do is turn all of them off, make sure there is nothing left over in the Data folder except the regular stuff (FalloutNV.esm/DLCs) and then start installing them one at a time with a mod manager. Alternatively, rename the Data folder Data.old, then use STEAM to revalidate the cache. That should get you a clean Data folder. Make sure the game runs, then start installing the mods with a mod manager. If you're just dropping the mods in one by one manually, that is normally the fastest way to crash your game and make it completely unstable. You've also got ESM files loading after ESP files, and a whole bunch of other mods that alter the worldspace in similar ways. Not to mention Requiem for a Capital Wasteland is a crash-happy mess.

I want to effectively uninstall all my mods, clean up the data folder so that it is essentially vanilla, check for updates to my mods, then reinstall the mods one by one. If I'm not adding or taking away any mods (just possibly updating some), I shouldn't see any problem with my save games correct? I hope??? How do I use STEAM to revalidate the cache? Is that all I would have to do short of reinstalling the whole game? MrMidnight fucked around with this message at 21:26 on Jul 25, 2012 |

Fallout Mod Manager is pretty good about not leaving anything behind when you uninstall the mods. So yes, you can assume that it is clean. The only way to know for sure, aside from going through the Data folder by hand, is to revalidate the Cache (renaming the Data folder), which is done by clicking on the game in Steam, going to Properties, and clicking on the "Revalidate local files" (I think that is the wording.) The question of saves is tricky. Some mods will cause what is known as "Save Bloat" - that is, they make references that are saved in the actual save files and uninstalling mods can't clean these references. Some mods, like WMX, come with uninstall scripts to cleanly remove them. Others (most) don't. If you've got a bloated save with bad references to old files, it won't do you much good to just uninstall/reinstall.

I know I didn't ask for help again, but does anyone know how to fix this? It's showing 17(-) for lockpicking and a couple other skills as well. I've deleted all traces of Western Skies, reinstalled, tried Gyshall's fixes from a few posts up. After I installed the mod, I kept waiting for another sandstorm. When one came around, it knocked perception all the way back down to 1 and lowered the skills with it. I can just raise them with the console, but I don't think I'll ever be able to get perception higher than six, since when I use the player.setav perception 10, it sets it to 6(-).

I've tried searching without any luck, though I will admit I'm not particularly good at searching for things.

If you want a bunch of new weapons for your game, your best bet would likely be The Armory+AG Supplementary Uniques+Fallout 3 Weapons Restoration, and WMX or WME to top it all off. Anything beyond those likely conflicts with the Armory (like loading up Classic Fallout Weapons and The Armory would result in multiple Desert Eagles, for example). On the subject, what's the main difference between WMX and WME?

The Happy Gecko site you download it from still has a database listing of guns, but it's outdated if I recall correctly. Having run through the whole list of guns in the latest WIP, however, it's safe to say that it conflicts with the majority of weapon mods that add any realistic (or real life) guns.

As long as you don't use the leveled lists/or merge them with fnvedit, nothing in the armory will conflict with anything in the technical sense. If you add the weapons of some mod to your game, you just might end up with duplicates. Usually though, there's a good chance whatever mod you added or wanted to add is exactly the same gun the armory already has, just fixed up and better balanced.

misterdoo01 posted:On the subject, what's the main difference between WMX and WME? Beyond the differences in mods that each weapon receives, WMX also adds common variants of "This Machine" (Battle Rifle) and "That Gun" (.223 Pistol) to the leveled lists. Additionally, it allows you to modify melee weapons. By comparison, WME is more of a mod that ensures all weapons have three mods floating around for them.

Well, it won't actually legitimately conflict, you just might have duplicates of the same kind of weapon. So if you have another mod that adds say an FN SCAR and then TA, you'll have two FN SCARs from two different mods. They won't really actually conflict though unless they're named exactly the same ID wise.

Right, sorry. They don't conflict, but having duplicates with different stats is a little weird. I suppose you could pop either mod open in the GECK and simply remove a duplicate.

If the texture pack has a plugin for some reason, then you'll have to activate that via FOMM. Somehow, something has to get placed in the data folder though, regardless of how it gets there (either manually extracted or installed as a .fomod via FOMM.) EDIT: I think you can also install texture packs as .fomods, and this might be helpful for doing that. Yip Yips posted:If you don't mind, what's your load order with these?

It wouldn't hurt to check out another person's load order if they're using a very similar loadout, but also remember to use an updated BOSS list as a start.

I think I've finally got my Happy Hardcore Load Order for Immersion and Difficulty (TM) - for some reason FOMM is reporting DUI and IWR at the end (but they're not!): http://pastebin.com/PpREEksu Which I'll be adding The Armory cabinet on top of, don't worry. I have one question that I'm curious about, however - does anyone have input on consequences/ramifications of making an ESP file that takes all of the (GRA) tags off of weapons from Gun Runners Arsenal? I know how to do it and am relatively positive it would be easy to do (if time consuming) - I think the only thing that I'd have issues with was certain weapon mods not working for the GRA weapons - and not knowing exactly why in-game. Is this correct?

first i just wanna say that this thread owns, especially you cream-of-plenty. secondly, Project Neveda is being dumb and apparently the .esp's (Rebalance and Cyberware) have the headers of .esm files. Are these safe to enable, is there a fix, or should i not bother with them. I don't have any huge desire to use them, I'm just curious. Also, is A World of Pain any good? I've heard mixed things and I didn't see it in the OP.
