ZigZag posted:Is there a mod that gets rid of the dog? Or replaces it with a cat, molerat or just anything thats not a dog? There are/were two, one replaced dogmeat with catmeat, that had no animations, another that vanished and used the buttercup mesh. Essentially, dogmeat while being somewhat useful, will always block doors.

If there's a doghouse there, he'll hang out inside, otherwise he'll just wander around it. I sent him to a big farm in the country where he could run around all day and chase radstags.

Been thinkin bout lockpicking and its minigame and how it can be changed up. Mod idea: Any lock is pickable at any level, and picks never break. Still keep the different difficulty levels, but instead they require a certain number of bobbypins, necessitating the player buying/scavenging/building more picks. It would be more like the original Deus Ex in that regard. I feel like since F4 is all about gathering resources and being a klepto, this could go over into the minigames. Was thinking about hack software for the hacking minigame too. Holotapes you could load, that sorta thing.

I don't think there's any way of saving the hacking minigame from being boring drudgery which is why they wisely made hacking pretty much unnecessary for any of the game. There's almost always a lock you can pick instead and I've only run into a couple places where you couldn't get an item or something unless you hacked a terminal. I always just put three perks into lockpicking and none in hacking.

I get why people don't like the hacking minigame (even though they seriously trivialized it this time around), but the lockpicking game takes like two seconds. Do people really hate it that much? I wish there was just more stuff in safes and behind locks/computers to actually make the whole thing actually worthwhile.

Once you get used to how lockpicking works (i.e. if you ever played Skyrim or FO3) it's super fast and easy to do. And picks are so plentiful that the 4th rank of Lockpick is completely unnecessary. Hacking is just slow and annoying though, and I can see why you'd want to bypass it. I just ignore hacking entirely because I don't think there's a single quest in the game that you can't complete with zero perk points in it, and you're only missing out a few random item containers.

I got rid of both because I wasn't having any trouble unlocking things but I was still spending time doing them. At that point, gently caress-it-it's-already-unlocked. The minigames were at no point fun and haven't been for years.

As far as I can tell anything that isn't just a container of random loot can be bypassed with no perk investment except for the cryolator and grognag's ax. Even then those aren't quest related, they just aren't random.

Familiarity breeds contempt and the problem for most people seems to be that if you've picked one lock or hacked one beth computer you've done them all. Changing it up probably wouldn't help anything, but at least the game lets you effectively cheat through them all now with dogmeat.

I feel like they could improve the hacking minigame just by adding more lock images. Or make it real time so there's actual consequences to breaking picks. The hacking minigame blows my mind because they added so many actual minigames and no one thought to make hacking active like say bioshock did.

If you buy a dog from that random guy and send it to the same settlement as Dogmeat, and only leave them one doghouse, they will play together, and it's awesome. Still waiting for Bethesda to fix the loading times issue with the latest patch.

Turn off in game vertical sync, (via ini I think,) enable it through your gpu. caveat is: lockpicking becomes silly fast. however it speeds up loading times.

Be careful when you do that with Bethesda games. At least in previous ones, important game logic is tied to the frame rate, which can break some things like, all the scripts, the physics engine, or the day/night cycle.

Lockpicking becoming silly fast, that is. I limit my FPS via Nvidia Inspector to 59 and lockpicking, reloading animation and all the other poo poo that's tied to frame rate is normal.

I did not limit I guess. I am overhauling scrap at the moment, I find it odd that the only thing left of a rusty car that can explode like a mini-nuke is 15 steel, so, a few springs, a bit of glass, screws, aluminium, plastic, some things from corvega and nuclear material. Houses also get a few extra's I'll go through all the scrappable objects and add a few things that you expect to find in them. if anyone has any requests, I'll try to add them. staberind fucked around with this message at 01:27 on Feb 8, 2016 |

So explain Codsworth being alive, or the computer left in working condition, the bunker filled with gold, etc. I get that items shouldn't give too many components because "survival", but there is no survival element to the game other than gathering scrap.

Gold is a useless metal with no value when it comes to scavenging for basic survival, and only deluded fools with no grasp of reality stockpile gold thinking it will be of value after the end times. Food,water and guns/ammo would be way more valuable, and gold is a loving worthless construction material. Magmarashi fucked around with this message at 03:41 on Feb 8, 2016 |

No explosives required, just remove the core when you get out. E: I highly recommend Power Armor Animation Changes. It makes power armor entry/exit always use the fast in-combat animations instead the painfully scenic 'hey look, it's power armor, isn't that cool' default animations. Or, you can choose to remove animations entirely for near-instant entry/exit. Also has an option to make core insertion instant, which should reduce tedium in light of the above.

I'm jumping into Fallout 4 now after loving my heavily modded Skyrims and New Vegases. The OP hasn't been updated since the end of November. Are people still using NMM for mods or has Mod Organizer support become good enough and did the Script Extender also get done?

I feel like I enjoy the concept of settlement mods more than the mods themselves. I installed a bunch and now the menus take ages to sort through. But I can't decide which ones to gut, either. Homemaker, DDProductions All In One, Alternate Settlements, Snap'n Build, and OCDecorator (if you want to count it) all have features I enjoy - but also, simply too many options. I just wish the UI was better for sorting through all the garbage. On a somewhat related note, the SK version of OCDecorator crashes my game for some reason, so before I go through and reinstall a bunch of these as non-SK versions, which ones do you guys consider essential or trash, and why? (Alternatively, why the hell does my game crash with OCD when I hover over the 'Workbenches' section  )
