Mr E posted:That's odd, I haven't had any problems with junk hanging out with the underwear options on both body replacers. I decided to go back and give it another try, and I think I know what the problem is. Using the underwear option means naked bodies will be all covered up, but any dudes in skirts like legionaries or tribals will have their junk underneath, which can cause it to be visible when they're a corpse or if they're sneaking. That's with Roberts anyway, I'll give Breeze a try and see if it's any better. Edit: Okay in breeze they keep things under wraps! Davoren fucked around with this message at 21:39 on Aug 22, 2014 |

Good luck, I tried to play FO3 a while back and I must've reinstalled it seven times before I gave up. Multicore thing didn't work either. It used to work for me before, on the same rig I have now. I have a sneaking suspicion that Bethesda hosed something up when they removed GFWL. I vaguely remember editing a file to remove GFWL back when it used it. Maybe it's causing it to crash or something I don't know.

The multicore fix actually makes it crash a little earlier, immediately after clicking New Game. I can't install TTW, it gives me this error message: "An unhandled exception has occurred: Could not find a part of the path C:/Users/Jeff/AppData/Local/Temp/wze9b2/resources/TTW Data/TTW Files'."

When I installed TTW I dumped it to my desktop for its working files (from what I remember) as an option, and it seemed to do okay with that.

I've installed a compilation pack put together by Millenia (Weapons of the New Millenia) that seems to be a much-expanded addition of weapons and his improved textures like with the WRP in the OP. But one thing that's weird is that all of the gun textures seem to be covered in baby oil or something - they're incredibly shiny. Anybody else run into this problem? I'm wondering because I've been using some of the individual weapons he's put up that aren't in the pack and they're all normal looking.

Some of his textures have extra shiny normal maps, I usually turn down their brightness in photoshop. The file in question usually has an _m suffix.

The m maps are the spec maps. I believe I'm going to ask him to test out all the guns in a setting outside of Chet's for the next update so he can fix them up since I don't think he ever leaves Chet's. Just like I never leave Doc's.

Is there a female body mod that doesn't make weird unnecessary adjustments to the clothing? Type 3 makes some skirts shorter and some other things I've forgotten, Type 6 makes everything more revealing, Type V is mostly out of date and has many of the same problems Type 3 has. Have I missed one? Or am I stuck with one of these unless I redo things myself?

Just like I never leave Doc's. This is mostly just terminology so it's not too important, but to hopefully avoid confusion, this is the naming convention usually used for Fallout/Skyrim/etc: TextureName_d - Diffuse map (Often it's just 'TextureName' without _d). TextureName_n - Normal and specular maps (norms are in the RGB channels, spec is in the alpha channel). TextureName_m - Environment mask; which controls the visibility of: TextureName_e - Environment map (or 'cubemap'). TextureName_g - Glow map. Those are the common ones, anyway. So yeah, a lot of Millenia's _m maps are fairly bright, so they aren't masking out the cubemap very much, resulting in the guns looking pretty shiny.

A long file path like C:\Users\My Name\Documents\MyGames\TTW Build\ is NOT recommended."

The game looks through all the BSA files in your data folder before the menu appears, and the sheer amount of content TTW throws in can slow down the start sequence significantly. It would stare at me for at least two full minutes before it would let me load a game, but ran just fine once it did.

Just started up a game of NV the other day with an assload of mods I don't remember installing. Anyone have any idea what triggers the Nevada skies textures to sometimes turn into matrixy flying squares?

Alright, this is annoying as hell. I keep getting "Out of Memory!" crashes whenever I get close to New Vegas or even McCarran Airport. I'm running the 4GB patch, I have 12 GB of system RAM and 2 GB on my video card. What steps should I be taking to figure out what the heck is going on?

What steps should I be taking to figure out what the heck is going on? from the official forums quote:There are more than one kind of out of memory error. For each of you, more information is needed. How many plugins are you running (if more than 100 or so, this can be the problem). Badly made mods can also cause the issue. Textures which have the incorrect dimensions can give this error also. Bad meshes can cause the error. Running out of HEAP memory is probably the most common issue. The game has issues purging old CELL's, this can also be addressed. Not enough Video memory can also cause this issue, a common cause of this error is when using a laptop or desktop with built in graphics or low end video card.

Also, before it crashes out, generally all sounds will go except for ambient sounds and music - I'll hear the gatling laser noises from security bots, but I won't hear footsteps or gunfire, for example. Once it seemed to recover and played all the sounds at once, which was murder on my ears. Edit: NMM was launching the unpatched EXE.

Which is a huge shame because I wouldn't mind exploring the Capitol Wasteland again but I really don't want to go back to FO3 after the improvements of Vegas There's a guide for how to fix this right on the TTW page. Basically, one of the TTW BSAs wasnt generated correctly. to figure out which one, Load up new vegas with only the New Vegas + DLC ESMs and Fallout 3.esm checked, if the menu shows up, relaunch it with the next ESM in the list checked. Repeat. When you get to the stage where the menu doesn't show, rerun the TTW installer, saying "no" to rebuilding the BSAs until you get to the one that didnt generate correctly. Rebuild that one. I had to rebuild the Anchorage BSAs, but now it works just fine.

I tried AWOP and found it a little too much but the concept of one giant sprawling dungeon is a cool one if it is done right. Tales from the burning sands 3 has a huge optional dungeon, it's an industrial park. Actually, the entire series is just really well put together, which is good since you need to do part one and two to get to three.
