Either way, it's like STALKER meets Fallout, especially if you grab that flashlights mod suggested by the Pilgrim author.. I don't think that it looks much like STALKER, those games are actually pretty colorful when it's not cloudy. Pilgrim looks more like Silent Hill to me, in terms of color palette and overall brightness.

Has anyone found anything like Real Smokes from New Vegas? I like the fact that you start smoking by using a lighter 'weapon' instead of adding more items to the aid category, but the closest I've found is Usable Cigarettes which seems a little limited, and like every smoking mod I've found for F4, locks you into an animation, which is the opposite of convenient. I looked at the scripts from Real Smokes but I know nothing about that side of modding and can't really make heads or tails of how to port it over, if such a thing is even possible.

Submarine Sandpaper posted:so I didn't like fallout 3 but grabbed this and got mods via the in game lazy way. Game's been alright for the first few hours. The bullet time mod is super fun, but throwing 200 rounds into a skull raider dude and only getting half health down was a bit lovely. Is this because I'm being a mad man using the in game rather than external site mods, \something is odd, just the behavior of the "more dangerous raider or whoever mods", or fallout just being fallout (bad like fallout 3)? http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/13263/ I actually changed the values to do 3.3x on headshots and maybe even less for limbshots so accuracy is more important, and headshots melt away enemies. You can really easily edit the values in FO4, but I just uploaded my modified version there. I also made a stealth mod with more realistic values if you're into that kind of thing: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/13798/ I never really thought about putting these up on Bethesda's site, but I might as well at some point.

Light em Up 2.0 http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/17749/ It does fiddle with the cigarette/cigar items (carton/packs) so they become aid items, but considering you're just as likely to Store All Scrap, it's for the better.

So I tried a mod that changed Piper's appearance, and now she won't talk. I removed the esp, and have gone back to saves from before I used it, but she still won't talk. I verified the cache and it didn't find a problem, but Piper specifically won't talk to me. I can trade with her, and command her to move places, and she'll make comments when I give her those instructions, but anything that comes from using the Talk command is complete silence. Is the next step uninstalling and reinstalling the whole game, or is there something I might be missing?

Not that I'm aware of. It was Vault Meat Piper (I know Vault Meat is some fetish thing, but this is just a face mod inspired by the character design) and the download was just an .esp. Nothing in the description suggests it does a thing to the audio files, and no one else who has tried it has had a bug like this--they all complain about her rear end exploding to ridiculous proportions or something similar.

If it does, it's probably for the better, as usual: there's a mod for that. http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/12430/ The above does adjust the tendency for settlements to be attacked as a function of stacked resources, but you may still want to add something like the following for all the added settlement attacks you may eventually incur as a result of having literally millions of junk. http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/20137/

Any conflicts with other mods? I've been playing for quite a while and only now just hit level 15. Definitely slowsdown the leveling and forces you to be careful not to rush into an area unprepared. The no health regeneration & bumped up health pool turn combat from a battlefield shooter into a resource management game. Ammo & health packs are expensive even later in the game, I invested thousands of caps into the settlement system before I got a sustainable source of rad free water & adhesive. It will conflict with most bog overhaul mods but there are some with patches.

Settlements become important investments, but you can upgrade your carrying capacity via specific equipment so it's less tedious than stock plus it's compatible with sim settlements. Early levels are rough but not insurmountable. Sometimes running away is the answer, or avoiding combat if you're low on supply.

Sintax posted:Anyone who tried Horizon, does it hold up for a whole playthrough? Might give it a go, but I'm not looking for painful gameplay that ends up being more annoying than fun. Any conflicts with other mods? Seems fine. Like mentioned, I got about level 15 with a character (rolled a second after some other mods borked my save), and was still having to keep resources like food, water, and bandages in the back of my mind the same as levels 1-5. It did feel like progress was being made, but it wasn't like any of that stuff was going to be rendered irrelevant anytime soon. Since leveling rate is roughly halved, that would be equivalent level 30, so I'll say, yeah, it hods up in the long run. I still felt like my character was still getting started. As for annoying more than fun, while there is no accounting for taste, I would say definitely not. The Horizon author makes a lot of accommodations for play-ability and a bunch of the features go a long way to making survival a far more enjoyable experience, and it doesn't do so with silly "realism" contrivances like the player dying to single headshots in a gameworld of hitscan weapons. Horizon's design philosophy is really consistent in that it keeps you in the action with resource management as a constant CONCERN, but not constant chore. As in, it is something you think about, and DO something about through the gameplay, rather than "doing" something about it by juggling items in inventory. Food/water for example, one big meal, and you're basically set for the entire day. Health? Instead of popping stims mid combat, Horizon balances the player healthbar as a resource. Sometimes you effectively sacrifice some health and expose yourself for a clear shot so you can break enemy lines, or make a tactical retreat. Try that in those "hyper-realism" mods where you can die in one or two shots, and you would just as soon be reloading rather than that tactical retreat actually improving your situation. No, instead Horizon expects you to get bumps and bruises in combat (hitscan weapons, this WILL happen, nothing you can do about it). Instead of stims to heal, you "guard" your health in combat, and just patch up the booboos AFTER combat, only popping stims when you get surprised. The way the mod keeps you "feeling" the hits is by making those restoratives rare/expensive. Get surprised and you'll wince, even if it's only a hit for 1/10th your bar or less. It adds up. My only complaints with Horizon are: -Getting started is a little too rocky, and samey. I like rolling lots of characters, but the first 5 levels or so are basically the same thing all over again. Nothing "Start Me Up" + a few gifts via console doesn't fix. -MOST of the resources are ADHESIVE limited. Making things rare is one thing, but it can be a bit obnoxious when ONE resource becomes the bottleneck for virtually everything. It is an easy way to balance broadly, so as a mod, I can deal. -I do like going where I want to go, doing what I want to do, and while Horizon's balance DOES accommodate this (normalized NPC health, no health bricks), it can be rough if you're trying to push the main quest just to get access to the institute or something. I really can't say enough good things about Horizon. The author has his/her head screwed on right, and the more I play it, the more I appreciate it. Very much a slow burn that will grow on you. Give it a go, make mistakes, and make sure to install the optional Timescale esp. Also some sort of additional save mod (Light em Up 2.0) - although there is the option of literally crafting consumeable save items - this is a Bethesda engine.

Absurdly so yes, it makes you take far less damage and lets you carry more, fusion cores are rare, but you can eventually craft more of them. If you are going into heavy combat, bringing power armour is a very good idea, though you can't just run around it in willy nilly. With health and rads being something you have to mange, good armour is very valuable.

TescoBag posted:The only issue I have with the idea of horizons is that I really luke using power armor. Would you say its worth using in horizon? Additionally, progression should be more rewarding. The spawns are spread over the leveling better, so you will actually be spending time, and resources upgrading that T45d before T-51 starts showing up. Brotherhood presence shits all over that but, Bethesda. Just hold off on Kellogg for a little while, do some companion quests or something. The only issue you're liable to have is early on when you're starting from nothing, but there are like 5 or 6 cores in and around the concord area if you know where to look. They'll get you going, and probably never run out, unless you're like me and are regularly spitting cores when you forget you're out of grenades. If it still really bothers you, then go grab http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/325/?, and use the Balanced, or No Run drain option so you don't feel like simply going from point A to point B needs to be perfectly straight, least you run low on cores. Alternatively, Power Armor Delivery http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/7809/ / Airdrop http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/18591/ and call in your suit when you're about to enter a more serious combat area.

I can't recommend Horizon enough, I'm about to ding 25 in my current run and it's held up very well. It still has some issues but most of those can be fixed with other mods. I think the author is releasing 1.1 next weekish and he's promised some interesting stuff albeit vaguely. The first few levels are rough but once you get to level 15 and unlock vegetable starch it really hits its stride. I for one have committed more to this current playthrough than any other time I've played FO4. The best advice I think is to settle down in a specific settlement (I chose the Castle) and slowly expand your empire outwards. I don't use the caravan system (a mod lets me fast travel like in vanilla) or power armor (because it currently doesn't work great in Horizon) but I haven't had too much problem, especially once you get a decent supply of ammo rolling. That's probably one of the biggest differences for me personally; even in vanilla survival I would be drowning in ammo for guns I never used but in Horizon that poo poo is all scrappable into components to make ammo for the guns you prefer. At this point in my playthrough I have like 100 carryweight dedicated solely to meds, water, drugs, and food. Coupled with my armor, guns, and ammo I still have 750 weight left over for long scavenging forays, plus I can call a cargo bot whenever I want. Basically, Horizon turns FO4 not into a different game but a different experience. I'm not a fan of resource management bullshit in open world games now (even mainstream AAA games now have cooking and crafting and grabbing ingredients it seems, like the new Zelda) but somehow Horizon balances all of that in a fun way so you're not constantly checking your inventory for what poo poo you have or what poo poo you need.

Horizon hits a nice middle ground where scarcity makes the food seem important, but usually won't put you in a bad situation unless you over-extend. All without being overbearing about nursing the basic needs. I think it's a bit to do with it being part of a larger ensemble of resource management that it feels like a natural part of the whole, rather than a tacked on novelty. Wholistic approach of Horizon works to its favor.

If you rescue Nick before you get to diamond city, it starts open. Won't fix your Piper problem but will get you inside. Does anyone use molotovs in horizon? They feel completely useless with no initial damage and slow damage over time. And burning enemies act like any other meaning you can't just wait for them to burn to death without them flanking you, so you end up shooting them anyway.
