House represents the best and worst of capitalism-for him, and for those who could afford it, it would be a paradise. For everyone else, it would be just as bad, if not worse.

On the plus side, if House hosed off to the moon, nobody would have to listen to him prattle on anymore. gently caress off Odo, go back to Bajor.

I'm playing a game right now with Delilah, Vanessa, and Lunette. But I've been playing the fallout 3 side of TTW so Delilah is near useless and Vanessa just bitches about whiskey the whole time. Lunette actually has been leveling up and throwing me items, at least.

I also have the Companions Control thing and the Attack of the 50 Foot Woman mod, so of course I force-recruited the 50 foot woman into my gang. It owns. Somehow she's totally stable, just clips through the ceiling when you go indoors. If there's an upper floor to a room, sometimes you can see the upper half of her body instead. By default she's got sexy sleepwear and a rolling pin, I have her some power armor and a burning engine block on a stick for a weapon. It's like I have a big smashy robot follower, it rules.


edit: NEW GAME PROBLEM! So my inventory refuses to empty out now for some reason. I've done many quests where you lose your poo poo without issue but now I'm having crashes upon that scenario. In fact, trying to manually empty out my inventory crashes too. Whenever I get rid of that final item, whatever it is, I crash. My inventory weight value seems like it's off by a pound, since I'll have 1 pound items and it will say 2 pounds. I've tried adjusting this with player.modav inventoryweight but it hasn't helped any. I could try player.forceav but apparently that's a one way thing and you'll be stuck at whatever value you set that to forever so I'm resistant. Any advice?

Do not trust in hope- it will betray you! Only faith and hatred sustain.

Hey, started up a new game and looking for some mod recommendations. First, is there away to turn of Western Skies' sandstorms? Second, are there good mods for flashlights instead of PipBoy light, and for a good TPS camera? I tried Tactical Third Person Camera which was good but had weird issues zooming sometimes and was kinda annoying when weapons were holstered, and DynamiCamera which doesn't have smooth transitions between different positions, and both suffer a lot from parallax at close range, although idk if that can be fixed.

I've got a question. I don't know if this is a bug or a memory issue. From time to time particularly after extended play sessions, I come across an issue were the landscape starts to drop out. You're walking along and then you fall through the ground and pop back up, essentially hopping across terrain you keep falling through. At first I thought it was the result of two landscape mods conflicting with each other and screwing up the navmesh of the ground, but then I found a spot where it happened, reloaded the save, and the spot was fine again. So now I'm unsure, since the bug appears to hit at random.

Another question: low light vision and ENB. Cateye or the project Nevada vision mods don't seem to work with ENBs, is there a fix for this?

Did you mess with the uGridsToLoad in the .ini file?

If Western Skies didn't come with any sort of configuration tool you could simply remove the sandstorm weather from the area climates. That's very simple thing to do with FNVEdit.

Nope. I think it's just a memory thing because I've tossed every landscape changing mod except for Wasteland Flora. It happens at random, so who knows.

I haven't played it, but doesn't FO4 reduce your max HP as you take on more rads? If so I'm pretty sure I saw that on the Nexus during my last attempt to make sure I spend more time modding this game than playing it, phone posting otherwise I'd link, but I believe it's on there somewhere.

So I'm trying to get back into modding NV after a while away. I was wondering what people thought of the JSawyer Ultimate Edition mod? Up until now I've been using the original JSawyer combined with Project Nevada(sans it's Rebalance module). Should I keep my old setup? Upgrade to JSUE? Upgrade to JSUE and drop PN?

It also said on the JSUE page that it doesn't incorporate GRA. Is that anything to worry about if I go from the original JSawyer mod to this one?

I've never used the YUP bugfix patch before. I vaguely remember hearing about how it can cause a lot of issues with other mods. Is that still true, or am I an idiot for not adding it to my mod pile?

What do most people consider the best companion mods? Willow seems to be the most popular, but I don't really care for her.

Haven't tried any of the Jsawyers mods, so I can't speak there. The game is buggy, yeah, but in ways that seem usually fixable if you have the console enabled. It's usually just crashes and getting stuck in geometry for me, which eh. Don't need a big bugfix mod. As far as companions: Marcus and Ulysseus. I don't think any of the from-scratch companion mods are particularly good.

I'm going to buy Fallout 3 when the steam sale starts and tie FO3/NV together with TTW, so I can finally try that game without crashing every 10 minutes.

Since FO3/FONV are built on the Oblivion engine, is it possible to create a mod that ties Oblivion together with the Fallouts? And does it already exist?

It might technically be possible. Certainly if you're only looking for only the Oblivion worldspace.

It doesn't exist, and I am not aware of anyone with plans to make it happen.

I mean, it's not literally the same engine. There's enough differences that a TTW style conversion would be a lot tougher than fo3 in nv

I imagine you'd need to either have the source code or go through such a large amount of hacks to reproduce Oblivion's mechanics that it would lead to all sorts of nasty instabilities, not to mention that there's no mod team crazy enough to embark on such a project. They're making an Oblivion to Skyrim conversion, though.

I would pay for a special edition Fallblivion 3: New Vegas from Bethesda that merged all the content from all three games and their DLC. Not sure how you would combine the character systems though.
