Midnight Voyager posted:In this case? Because Arthmoor is a known paranoid lunatic. He went on some crazy thing about how goons were mod terrorists one time that was pretty hilarious. Sent it to Bethesda, if I'm not mistaken. His forum sig is something like "RIP United States of America - July 1776 - November 2012." Arthmoor is the same guy that threw an absolute fit when people began asking him why he was putting Oblivion Gates in the middle of his open cities skyrim mod, and threatened to quit modding altogether if people didn't quit trolling, at which point the trolling increased tenfold. Dude is bonkers. Oh and he was also one of the biggest supporters of paid modding, so is also a traitor.

Why is this even a thing, like this is the first time an official patch ruined mods, not to mention unofficial patches by their very nature are going to conflict with official ones while they are still being made. Anyone remember Fallout 3 and how the DLCs basically made mods nearly impossible to load for months? And I don't see how would this "completely stop" the unofficial patch's development instead of ignoring the settler thing and focusing something else.

From what I understand, the main problem that there's an unknown number of places now where changing one of the scripts that ships with the game will suddenly break all settlers.

Does anyone else get random issues with modded radio stations where they can sometimes just go quiet for long periods of time? I've noticed this ever since FONV but never root caused it. Right now it's the Old World Radio pack of stations-- at any time two or three out of the twelve or so stations are silent.

If it's like Interesting NPCs for Skyrim, it really is just "a bunch of NPCs with individual voicing and minor quests attached to them".

Playing with it now in my current run (level 80+). So far I've met up with some "organized" raiders in a new location and after collecting one of their own, they send me off to rip off chem dealers in Diamond City and Goodneighbor . Interestingly, it seems the ability to disguise oneself from FONV/FO3 are in play .. we'll see how well that works. Separately, I stumbled across a karaoke bar. Nothing much happening there yet, must be part of another quest I haven't gotten to/progressed yet. Couple of new vendors so far, and a unique shotgun I haven't played with yet. Subtitles are on the amateur side, but I'm using the Full Dialogue mod so who knows. VA pretty drat good.

It adds a "museum" where you can display all the unique weapons and items you'll find in the game. Also unique stuff from its own questline. And unique weapons the author found on the nexus and liked the look of. I ended up ditching it because it added too much new stuff that I had zero interest in, which is a shame because it is really well put together. If there had been a "light" version available that was just for vanilla/DLC content, I would have loved it.

Somebody made some lore friendly power armor inspired by Liberty Prime. Somebody else on the Nexus who clearly has not yet masturbated enough also decided to do a female super mutant replacer. I am not linking that as I have some dignity. In advance, I warned you!

It also incorporates Moonpath to Elsweyr in its entirety, and I personally hope it does the same for other "new area" mods that are high-quality but have been basically abandoned for a while like Moonpath was.

Even for as huge of a budget as FO4 assuredly has, professional QA takes time and time is money, and there is finite money. When your base game always (ALWAYS) needs QA love, it doesn't make any sense to throw cash at bug testing theoretical content that you didn't create or control. In other words Magmarashi posted:Counterpoint: Use mods at your own risk.

So I have a tricky question. I decided I wanted my character to be a special snowflake and look different from everyone else. I grabbed a mod called Unique Player which lets you separate a body mesh and skin that's only used by the player and no npcs. Good start! But that's where I hit a wall. It doesn't have any way built in to have the game use different clothing meshes for the character. Is there anyway to have the game use a different set of meshes for all the armor when worn by the player? Otherwise I'd have to have custom armor and couldn't wear anything looted or my body would suddenly change. Any ideas? And if not, anyone willing to try modding it? Seems like the kind of mod that would get real popular. Cheap Shot fucked around with this message at 20:37 on Jul 11, 2016 |

To continue off this, just spit balling here, and I'm not familiar with the engine at all, but would something like this work? The game already references two sets of meshes, male and female, and puts the correct one on you when you equip something. Could the same process be used to reference a third or forth set of meshes so that when you equip stuff it looks different on the player than on npcs? Possible? Impossible?
