Is there some reason why the Functional Weapon Racks' mod author hid the mod? The description says "UPDATING TO V0.2.0!!!!" but does that mean 0.1.9 has some issue I should be aware of or is it just them being weird? EDIT: True Storms did the same thing, so I guess it's so they can upload and edit pages without people downloading the old version.

The idea of highly customizable meshes is great. But why the terrible smooth texture? My guess is hentai. Lover slab is a great forum for a laugh. There is a thread where lonely nerds share their oedipal complex milf meshes. It's like Wierd Science became a reality.

I've always liked LL, simply because all their weird stuff spins off useful stuff like skeletons(to rig meshes to...) with practically every bone, or hair physics. Also, LL tends to work on male meshes in parallel to female ones. I'm waiting for ones without huge boners tho', there are a couple of wip's that have way better feet and hands, nicer muscles generally, better curves, while being practically the same dimensions as the bethbody.

Since they have baseball bases already in as junk you can collect, I'm wondering if anyone's turned any of their settlements in to a baseball field. I guess Starlight Drive-In would probably be the best location for it?

The only thing really preventing people from working together to create something awesome is that no single person will get all the credit and MY VISION etc. Project Nevada etc was a huge collaborative project between different people and it shows because they're very, very well made (certainly professional quality, especially if you take the low standards of Bethesda as professional) If they all teamed up to make a single, unified project that completely rehauled the settlement system they would be the number 1 top spot on the Nexus from now until perpetuity, I guarantee it.

They can properly flag the old version as the old version, update the description etc and you don't get a situation where people are potentially downloading conflicting versions etc. It's the best compromise there is, sadly.

jred250 posted:I'm really curious on this point because I'm curious to see how you can implement more than 4 options in dialogue. In the past Bethesda games, you could have a bigass list of dialogue options for any NPC, but how do you weave in new options without overwriting existing options? To even tackle the issue, you would have to have another mod that allowed for a different layout and more selectable options, but now this theoretical mod is going to be a minimum requirement for any mod that adds new dialogue options for existing NPCs. What a loving mess you made for modders to sort out, Bethesda.

If its Mod Organizer then it uses its own ini files, and you would need to run the config app through it, which it cant currently do unless its a 64bit exe. I was just using Nexus Mod Manager It worked fine on my old computer, but I have this new build and I can't get it to do anything. Thinking of uninstalling FO4 & Nexus Mod Manager entirely and trying again

I downloaded that and Elvani's track pack since he worked enough to actually keep Travis' intros to songs. Of course that also means his track pack is much bigger since he also has all the original songs in there spliced with those intros. Haven't played much since downloading them but they do work. Saw some people complaining about volume and other bugs and one of them does have an optional download that apparently maybe potentially solves it.

Gestalt Intellect posted:Adding the old skill numbers back would probably be really hard to do over the existing system. Almost everything about the perks would have to be changed. Why not just move Skills onto the 1-5 point track that the Perk system uses? That way, you could silo off all the lame +20% DAMAGE perks and make room for new, interesting perks like Old World Gourmet that makes prewar food useful by removing rads and adding cheap, quick stat-ups and throws in a whole bunch of recipes that are effectively non-addictive chems. Nuka-Cola + Sugar Bombs = Sugar Rush, which provides a shorter and non-addictive Jet trip. 3 Chewing Gum = Cold Turkey, removes all addictions. Salisbury Steak, Instamash, and Blamco Mac'n'Cheese = Rib Sticker, +50 Carry Weight. And so on...

Honestly I kind of like that skills aren't present anymore, at least for some things like guns. It's kind of ridiculous how gun damage in earlier fallout games is moderated by a skill; the same pistol firing the same ammunition somehow does more damage in the hands of the PC than in the hands of a random raider?

People are going to want to do absolutely everything with settlements/building, and they're going to be spread out across tons of different mods that will inevitably all be incompatible. It might still be better than having monolithic feature creep mods though (armorsmith extended is approaching that point). dissss posted:That's still the case though, just now they're perks instead of skills Right. If it bothers you because of a matter of realism or whatever then the problem is still there. Personally it annoys me more from a game design perspective. I like being able to occasionally use weapons I'm not built for, where it will just be more awkward to use them rather than them being flat out unable to kill anything. Maybe give each weapon a minimum requirement in a skill (Guns, Energy, Heavy, etc) and if you don't meet that skill then you either can't use the weapon or it suffers heavy accuracy, recoil and reload speed penalties.

The old skill+perk system was nice because it was simply a deal of having one pool (skills) of boring but necessary making numbers bigger and then another pool that you could dedicate all your points into cool interesting stuff. Now it's all the same so you end up having to debate between being able to overcome bulletsponge enemies versus picking up cool poo poo. Hell, I actually ended up putting points into most of the weapon damage perks just so I could get some actual variety in what guns I was using. edit: perks are also less interesting because now you have ranks so you get even more of spending points to get bigger numbers whoopee

Skills were clunky and terrible even back in FO1 and 2, but they made more sense there because everything was turn based and you could pretty trivially get an idea of how much was enough. Screwing around at chargen for an hour and dumping everything into unarmed, for example, gave you a good idea of what was going on with it. Utility skills like Speech and Science were slightly different and harder to get a handle on, but it was made somewhat better by the fact that these skills ranged from nice conveniences to completely and utterly pointless. Ranges with guns were easy to judge and the entire thing was pretty straightforward. None of that is true in the FPS modern incarnations. Utility skills range from very comfortable bonuses to absolutely crucial and are even harder to get a handle on than before without foreknowledge of the game's challenges. Gunfighting skills are practically impossible to understand due to how VATS judges how much of someone's body is 'covered'. Melee skills were colossally pointless because of how much damage you take just getting into melee in a real-time setup; melee only makes sense as a backup plan or alternate, not as a primary mode of combat. Skills were always a dorky kid at the hip joint, but with FO3 and New Vegas the dorky kid was also morbidly obese. Good goddamn riddance to skills. I don't pretend that the new perk system is ideal or perfect, but it's a huge amount better. In FO4 I do not need to meticulously plan every fiddly skill to do the things I need to do. I can just glance at the perk chart for the thing I want to do, do some trivial arithmetic, and realize it's 2, 5, 7, or whatever levels before I can do it and I absolutely do not need to worry about making my character unplayable in the meantime.

I saw an interesting idea in this mod here: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/4879/ Instead of level requirements, higher ranks of perks are tied to attributes instead. I'm sure it's not balanced at all, but there's potential in that idea. There's definitely ways they could have done a skill-less system without every character coming out too bland. As it is, most of the higher level perks are underwhelming so there's not much reason to specialize.

Ha, I thought I found a trick. You can use the console to select the green boundaries (have to be looking down them) and use console commands (or that one hotkey mod) to move it. I was like Wow I can make settlements bigger! But doing this doesn't actually let you build things where you couldn't before. bummer.

Yeah, the green boundary lines themselves don't actually define anything, they're just physical objects that represent where the boundary line is. There are a couple places where you can get objects to poke out of the boundaries because the buildable area is sliiightly bigger, but the actual size of the area is all handled internally. I am looking forward to the first mods that make it so you can build wherever you want, as well as the myriad of things that will break horribly when you do so.
