The 10 year anniversary being yesterday got me to reinstall, and I've been following the Viva New Vegas guide. I just finished the visuals section and am doing a little testing when I noticed something rather annoying: That blue glow is applied to a bunch of objects in the world and I have no idea what's causing it. It's especially prominent on glass bottles and metal objects, so maybe it's related to lighting? Any ideas? EDIT: It was realistic wasteland lightning. I disabled it and the problem went away. Oh well. DoubleNegative fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Oct 20, 2020 |

Another thing for folks using Viva New Vegas: Something's buggy with the incremental autosaves option in the IStewieAI Tweaks ini. It worked fine at first, but twenty-ish hours in, my game was freezing up for 10 seconds at a time when autosaving. Eventually, it was just locking up FNV entirely. I don't think it's a save bloat issue because when I disabled the tweak, the freezing-during-saves disappeared. Cross-Section fucked around with this message at 23:16 on Oct 20, 2020 |

I had no idea this game turned 10 the other day, but I started a new run on a whim. I've got the anti-stutter patch, some perk mods, a UI tweak, and that popular weapon modding.. Mod. So far its running better than ever and I'm enjoying this well enough. Going fist weapons and maybe I'll just becoming a murderous lunatic and side with the bad guys.

Yeah even if he doesn't want the content from VNV someone should recommend he just does Core for the performance/stability improvements. Plus things like real recoil and weapon inertia, because I remember rope kid saying they were things he'd fit in with more time on the game

https://twitter.com/jesawyer/status/1318676514670473216?s=20 This was me, lol Edit: For actual content, I installed Viva New Vegas as closely to the instructions as possible, and while everything seemed to work properly, I was getting horrible pop-in with foliage added by Vurt's Flora Overhaul. Like, I'll walk 20 feet away from the Prospector Saloon, then when I go slightly further away a massive tree will pop into existence out of nowhere fairly close by. Is this a common issue, or did I maybe screw something up during the LOD portion of the guide? I'm kind of leaning towards installing again, just without the visual enhancements.

I followed the LOD generation to a T and I could not get it to work. I ended up just scrapping the whole install and went with a vanilla install and you know what? It's nice just installing a game and playing it instead of spending 3 days setting up mods.

Yeah, sounds like you messed up the LOD. If you didn't make any changes to the Terrain and Major Objects part of the guide, you can just download and install the pregenerated LOD he links to, should work out just fine.

Yeah, that's kind of where my mind went right after I deleted everything again to start from scratch. I just gotta have my mods though  Cross-Section posted:Yeah, sounds like you messed up the LOD.

I didn't make any changes to that section and used the pre-gen LOD to make everything as simple as possible to install  I think it might be worth trying it out one more time and paying extra attention to that specific section.

Use XLodGen rather than FNVLodGen for starters. Same idea but more options and a larger atlas size. Also bear in mind that WFO is a work in progress and Vurt hasn't finished all of the LOD models yet, hence some of the pop in.

I would get reverse pop-in (pop-out?) shortly after loading the game, walking toward a plant making it disappear, but that seemed to resolve itself within a few minutes.

This thread needs a new OP really badly explaining wtf is going on. I'll admit that post-Steam workshop I have very little interest in 2000's-era modding these days, and no offense meant, but little of the conversation ITT convinces me I should go back, even to play New Vegas. An OP with poo poo that's been true in the last five years would go a long way to fix that. At one time I wanted to do this but then I realized that while I am subbed to this thread, 2015 is about the last time I loaded up New Vegas.

Electric Phantasm posted:What happened at Nexus that killed most of the links in the OP? They changed the format of the links with no redirecting. The modid is the same, so while https://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/40442 is broken, https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/40442 points to the correct mod still.

The number at the end for every single mod is the same, so it's easy to find the mods in the broken links but it requires enough effort I understand why people just don't or can't.

latest version of new vegas reloaded has shadows and they look pretty darn good. interior shadows are still a glitchy wip but those can be disabled separately. there's also an ingame menu to toggle and edit various shader effects including the shadows. no perceivable performance loss either.

If people are following the VNV guide, I have some advice: at one point in the gameplay section, he suggests you install the VNV Followers Tweak mod. Don't install it. It makes it so that you can only have as many followers as half your charisma rounded down. Sounds fine, right? If you have 10 charisma, that means you can have 5 jerks following you. Wrong. It means you can only recruit as many followers as half of your charisma rounded down. I had to pause my current run to rip it out of my mod list because Cass straight up refused to go with me because I already had ED-E, Rex, Arcade, Boone, and Veronica. Even if I sent someone back to the Lucky 38 she still refused to come with me. The gently caress kind of balance mod makes it so you have to pick and choose from between who you recruit?

I currently have Veronica, Arcade, ED-E, Rex, Lily, and Cass recruited, and I only have 5 CHR. The only problem I've had so far is, yeah, folks refusing to come along even when I meet the mod's "requirements" but the workaround I found for that is just to send everyone back to the Lucky 38, and then trying again. It's worked out so far.
