As long as you don't make a character using any of the new race/hair/eye options, you should be able to uninstall the mod without issue if you end up not liking it, especially if you're using Mod Organizer. Arcsquad12 posted:It also adds a poo poo ton of stuff to The Fort which makes the area's performance run like crap, all for the sake of having slave pens and a naked woman sucking off a legionnaire. Back to After War Nevada. I put together a load order with all the graphical, ui/qol, and sound improvement stuff from Fear and Loathing. Included the cut content mods like Freeside Open and Wasteland Uncut. Did Bash Tag Generation for AWN too, but after looking at the resulting conflicts in FNVEdit, I pulled FO and WU and left just the eye and ear candy stuff along with the hud/ui improvers. Also stuck AWN after the Bashed Patch in LOOT. Runs well and the conflicts no longer overwrite key parts of AWN. Haven't had the time to play much, because modding, but the combat when I shoot up some GoodSpringsers makes it seem like this will be a good run. The character creation is very detailed and the background stuff is well done - classes, basically, that come with their own plusses and minuses. Tagging matters and skill points are not cheap. Tagged skills grant secondary benefits. Everything grants benefits, your stats screen is full of various effects (+10% AP regen from being well hydrated or something, I think). You get to choose your starting loadout by purchasing stuff from a vendor before you start the game. The amount of money you're given is a function of your starting stats, traits, and class. A lot of detail like this. I used to enjoy merging in Cirosan's overhaul for how it emphasized SPECIAL and differentiated builds a lot. AWN seems to take that to 11 while also adding a lot of other mechanics and new gameplay. Combat has been overhauled in a major fashion. Reminds me most of FWE if I had to compare it to a single thing. Edit: drithius has compatibility patches for AWN and YUP, Spice of Life, NVR2 & 3, Robert's (look under NVR CP even if you don't plan to use NVR, the patch is there), AWoP, and something else I forget. I suggest you not bash merge his patches as he assumes you're not bashing his stuff (even in FOOK-PN Convergence). So put a rule in LOOT that has the main AWN esp after the Bashed Patch and all the CPs will automatically move below the Bashed Patch, too. v1ld fucked around with this message at 08:33 on Oct 30, 2016 |

Is there a general order mods should be loaded, not just specific ones? Something like weapons > gameplay > textures etc?

nexus6 posted:Is there a general order mods should be loaded, not just specific ones? Something like weapons > gameplay > textures etc? It comes down to what mods should take priority over others. Most tools show mods in order of increasing priority so later ones win any conflicts. Take a look at a guide like this that shows you a suggested order - http://wiki.step-project.com/User:EssArrBee/FalloutNewVegas

I was kinda looking for something more consise and generic, like 'textures should come after gameplay which comes after weapon mods'. That page lists a lot of individual mods, is the order they are listed the recommended load order?

My general rough rule of thumb is that the smaller the scope of a mod, the lower in your load order it should be. A mod that adds a whole new worldspace and questline should be fairly high up (unless its Beyond Boulder Dome in which case it's proper position in your load order is the recycle bin) while a mod that rebalances one class of weapons should be around the middle, and one that redesigns two NPCs should be at the end.

That kind of categorical answer isn't possible because mods that alter totally different things won't conflict with one another in the first place.

If you have a mod that only changes textures and a mod that changed game play significantly but doesn't affect textures at all it makes zero difference whatsoever the order they're loaded.

Agents are GO! posted:My general rough rule of thumb is that the smaller the scope of a mod, the lower in your load order it should be. Or something like Nevada Skies which, unlike most mods which scream at you to PUT VERY LAST IN LOAD ORDER MY MOD IS THE MOST SPECIAL AND MOST IMPORTANT YOU'LL HAVE, actually does need to have its esp component put just above the merged/bash patches. Also, if you don't have it already, just download LOOT and run it at least once. No, I don't care what functionality Mod Organizer says it has, you need standalone LOOT to actually tell you if you have a load-order specific issue.

A point however. If you are using the Fear and Loathing in New Vegas mod guide for all the weapon modifications, don't let LOOT autosort them for you. I did that and it hosed up a lot of the compatibility issues. I can't remember exactly how I set it up, but it took me a while in FNV Edit to arrange the WMX and EVE mods and all their patches properly.

Fair Bear Maiden posted:They probably just used it because it was in an MGSV trailer. Maybe, or maybe it's just one of those things that turns into a complete coincidence, like Rick and Morty using X Gon Give It To Ya in the same timeframe as both a well known Source Filmmaker video came out, and then a Deadpool trailer came out at the same time both using the same song. On a modding note, I tried installing the Fallout 4 Quickloot mod for Vegas, but when I launch the game and load a save my screen is a brown texture smear with a popup message telling me to update to the latest NVSE Beta version 5.0b. Except, I already have that version installed. Disabling Quickloot makes it go away, but that is one of the best QOL mods to get backported to Vegas. On another note, can I use Spice of Life without the body mods, or will there be a big fuckup if I do? Arc Hammer fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Nov 7, 2016 |

Does anybody know what mod adds the O.S.A bunker in Silver Peaks Mine? There's a bunch of O.S.A soldiers and an arms merchant inside but none of them talk to me. They don't even care if I steal the guns on the table and murder people with them.  There's a room with O.S.A officers too  I think it might be Project Weaponry, but the mod author really didn't write a lot about what the mod adds and I've not managed to find any information by searching.

Open the console & click on anything that's placed in that O.S.A bunker. For example those NPCs. A RefID will appear at the bottom of the screen. The first two digits are the loadorder position of the mod you're looking for.

U-grids is one of those things where it doesn't matter what hardware you have the engine itself can't handle the higher values and something is going to screw up when you change it from the default.

Fair enough. Maybe I'll sit down and actually try that LOD Generator mod from the Fear and Loathing guide. Would Satchels or Tailor Maid be better for doing the armor slots style gameplay from Fallout 4? Tailor Maid apparel has a lot of bonuses for skill and special stats, but not much in the way of DT. Granted, a low DT playthrough could be a fun challenge, but I'd like to see some more oomph from protective gear.

Arcsquad12 posted:So I'm playing with fire and messing around with u grids to load values. I've got a 1070 but I'm wondering what sort of performance drop to expect? FWIW I have a GTX 680 and set grids at 9 for both FO3 and FNV, along with hugely cranking up the draw distances for grass, meshes, etc- I noticed no performance difference, since the game is capped at 60 anyway. The problem with gridstoload as you probably know based on your post is that it means you're loading scripts and AI and other nonsense from distant cells, and more of that means a higher crash chance. Personally, had almost no more crashes in FNV, but FO3 was slightly worse, so YMMV. If the only reason you're not doing it is performance concerns, go ahead; if you're not doing it for stability reasons, that's understandable. Also keep in mind that if you have a save file with a certain number of grids at some point, you will not want to ever change the number on that save file. That said, the game looks an absolute ton better just with some ini tweaks; grass and draw distance on meshes are the two big ones, but you can crank most settings well past their max (2-10x for me) without impacting your framerate too much. The grass in particular helps as it covers the ugly unnatural mashed-potato terrain that gamebryo games have, but being able to see the Lucky 38 from almost anywhere on the map was pretty drat cool, and in general lead me to a better feeling of cohesiveness. The Goodsprings water tower in particular is visible from miles and miles away, which is pretty cool.

I didn't get very far in as yet. The battle of Good Springs didn't drop anything egregious. The 5mm and 5.56 assault rifles dropped looked reasonable AK variants. Only rifle was the varmint. Haven't checked the weapons in the mod. That battle was all out war. He seems to have added combatants on both sides, Joe had like 8-9 people baking him. Everyone died on the deadly combat esp version. Trudy, Chet, and 2 settlers made it through with the default combat esp. There's a lot of stuff happening in this mod. I got a penalty for wearing a Too Heavy Helmet - motorcycle helmet. There's a -1 PE hit for simply being indoors. And you want to take those shades off inside the house, mister, the PE penalties stack up. AP regen rate buff 10% for being fully hydrated, dropping to 5% as thirst increases. Don't like having to drink before combat. I've also put together an F&L jsawyer CCO PN profile in organizer to compare. Haven't played FNV in years and CCOs classic feels may be better.

But uGridstoload still isn't something you should mess with. Yeah, it can make the game look prettier. And with modern hardware you won't get any noticeable performance drop. But it will make the game more unstable, stuff like scripted events that are supposed to fire when the player is nearby will mess up and you can get host of weird bugs. For example when I was experimenting with uGridstoload a while back, all of a cell's collision meshes would randomly decide to not load. So I'd walk through fences and fall through the ground, etc.
