I've been looking at the vanilla food items and there is literally no reason to make anything in the game besides gecko steaks at Goodsprings, since the difference between the most time consuming food item to put together ( Brahmin Wellington ) and Gecko Steaks is about 25 starvation points. Like, you either have to buff all the food items, because otherwise you might as well just put them together and sell them and eat Gecko steaks instead. I just wish I looked at the Gecko steaks first before I spent time making recipes and fighting the GECK.

The JSawyer mod mostly changes the food created by perks ( thin red paste and blood sausage ) by changing their healing rates. Oddly enough, none of which have Starvation values. Though I did find a mod that rebuilds JSawyer by script that takes care of the problem by nerfing Gecko steaks and re-arranging the meat steak tiers. And adding roast meat to all of the meat drops.

So after approximately five hundred years of development, The Frontier appears to be slowly shuffling towards release. Allegedly the timeline is "Within the next few months", with most of the work left to do being focused on bugfixing, finishing quests, and voice acting. They've also been releasing more footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWchHlHOL5w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idiFq0WgFAA

So now that modern hardware is pretty much universally overkill for this old game, I was messing around with draw distances in ways I was previously unable. I'm using a GTX 1080 non-TI, btw. I set uGridsToLoad to 10, and didn't break everything horribly. I did however notice that I could be sighted in on a far-away stationary target, but my bullet would just disappear once it got a certain distance away from me, well within what the game was rendering at the time. I did some digging, and this is apparently A Thing. I found an Reddit thread for Skyrim or Fallout 4, and it recommended setting fVisibleNavmeshMoveDist to 12288 in Fallout.ini. I tried it despite NV using Gamebryo rather than Creation Engine, with predictable results. Didn't do poo poo. Is there a form of this variable in Gamebryo? Failing that, anyone know of a mod that could affect this behavior? I also stumbled upon an NVSE tweak that will allow the game to utilize more RAM, even if the 4GB patch has been properly applied. In Fallout New Vegas\Data\nvse - create a new file called nvse_config.ini and put in the following lines: code:Also, whoever recommended skipping New Vegas Bounties 3 was dead on. It was overwrought, poorly designed, railroading nonsense. It was really disappointing, since I'd had so much with 1, 2, and The Inheritance

You shouldn't mess with uGrids, even if it doesn't tank your performance, it still leads to weird fuckery within your save file that can result in random crashes on cell changes/loading a game. If you want a better draw distance, use FNVLoDGen. It doesn't load more of the game, but it does make distant landscapes look a lot better with more and better detailed models for pretty much everything. Works with any mods you have installed that add in new locations and things to the wasteland too. It can potentially take a while to generate new LoD though, depending on your CPU and the amount of stuff you're generating for. It took like 2 hours for me, but I have a shitload of mods and a dual-core so- It won't spawn actors further out, it's purely for static meshes and the like.

Messing with grid load can also trigger events and encounters way off in the distance so they’ll happen and you’ll never know about it.

This form has a Range entry, which is the maximum distance the projectile will fire.

The engine just wasn't designed to handle that and it will lead to weird poo poo like terrain loosing all collision. This worked, thanks. I did end up setting UGridsToLoad back to default, so it's moot. rope kid posted:Is the issue that the bullet doesn't render or is the issue that the projectile stops existing?

I considered that, and found some reported problems. Apparently, it'll cause any save made after the higher UGridsToLoad to CTD any time you try to load it with the lower setting. Thing is, this didn't happen to me. According to everything I found, it's not like save bloat where it just increases load times and the chance of crashing, but flat-out makes those saves completely unplayable. I'm guessing the way Mod Organizer 2 virtualizes things somehow fixes it?

Yeah I'm trying to recall details but I feel like this is one of the "causes inevitable crashes" bugs where if he plays long enough it'll crash. I kinda recall some process of forcing the game to unload things while in an unconnected worldspace, then waiting out some internal timers, then saving, restarting, saving and reloading one more time? Not sure if it was this particular bug, but in FO3 I couldn't leave a building I'd saved myself into until I did some arcane set of steps and then necessarily gibbed myself, and only then proceeded from there without it crashing.

Okay I am at a total loss after spending all day trying to figure this out and fix it to no avail. Just out of the blue certain elements of my user interface have decided to turn into pink boxes. All the check boxes and other elements of the mod configuration menu are affected:  Only the "Survival" skill icon is affected:  And my world map:  Plus the icon for a helmet in my inventory is affected but I didn't get a screenshot of that but it's the same deal. I've tried everything I can think of. I updated any of my mods that needed updating, I've rebuilt my merged & bashed patches, I've made sure all the .bsa's are being loaded. I don't even have any mods installed that affect icons, and I have a satellite map mod for the world map, but that's up to date and hasn't been touched and doesn't touch anything else. My NVSE is up to date, and I have user interface organizer installed as well (which I thought was supposed to prevent stuff like this). I have no idea what else to do. I haven't done or changed anything to cause this. I was playing the game just fine last night, been playing this set up for over a dozen hours just fine, and I fire it up today to find this mess. I don't understand how poo poo can seemingly just break like this. Please somebody have a solution to this I don't want to nuke the install.

Try disabling the latter half of your mods. If the problem disappears, you know the problem is with one of the disabled mods. Activate the disabled mods one by one until the issue reappears, the last mod you activated was the culprit. If disabling the latter half of the mods didn't work, disable half of the remaining mods and see if that changes anything. Continue doing that until you've eliminated all but one option. But before you do any of that, try disabling your ENB if you have one. Worth a try. Same goes for the ambient occlusion mod you mentioned. If you don't have any UI mods, then post-processing ones could be likely culprits.

Turns out my issue stemmed from having more than 139 active plugins. Had to disable a few and everything is back as it should. Which is a bummer. There's some really cool stuff I want to add in. Oh well, guess I'll just have to do another playthrough after this one.

Is Frontier supposed to be in Vancouver / Seattle? I always thought that would be an amazing setting for a fallout game, I'm glad someone with talent also had that idea. Speaking of mods I finally played through new california and I had fun but boy oh boy is it poorly coded, I was shocked at how lovely it ran.

Iirc the ESP limit applies to deactivated Esp files in the data directory as well or some nonsense. Check out the Viva new Vegas guide, it details how to use zEdit to merge plugins. Super easy

Is there a post in this thread or some other resource that can show my what the best mods are to pretty the game up and add some new content?
