To be clear, BLEED is not a realism mod, it doesn't add a bleeding condition or anything of the sort, just adds a very slight and brief DoT to hits (maybe even just hits that break DT). You're not getting one-hit killed, but getting swarmed by fiends with automatic weapons is actually dangerous. In exchange, the lighter, faster weapons get a big boost in usefulness. I wish there were something similar for PoE, honestly, because there's really no reason to take fast / lower pen weapons.

As someone who completed a full playthrough with all DLCs with BLEED a while back I can vouch for it. It's funny as hell when someone survives a laser blast only for them to die to laser burn a second later. DoT ftw.

If someone made a Call of Chernobyl style New Vegas survival mod with the realistic weapon damage module it could be super fun but I doubt the engine could replicate the high tension jank of the Stalker series.

I didn't pay enough attention when installing VNV mods and I installed one that changes a bunch of vanilla traits. I want the ones that affect your SPECIAL under certain conditions and it takes them away from me! And I can't just delete the mod because it got incorporated into a merged patch! I think I can just rebuild that merged patch without that mod included, right? I was going to go into FNVEdit and just copy all the vanilla perk data over to the mod but that looks like a lot of hassle comparatively, and possibly easy to mess up

Gaius Marius posted:Lol. Don't follow modding guides You have a real weird fixation, pal. Also yeah, that kind of stuff is easily fixable with FNVEdit, thankfully. I didn't like a bunch of stuff in JSawyer Ultimate (the .22 change to the Varmint Rifle) and Qolore Tweaks, so I just went ahead and removed that stuff. Also removed the Camper trait from the Opposite Trait mod because, let's be honest, it's hilariously OP.

Upmarket Mango posted: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. this is pretty glitchy but it does work!

When the NVR shadows aren't flickering violently, they are really, really cool. I think one of the settings murders performance indoors however.

FWIW I streamed F:NV for 14 hours with Jsawyer, NVSE, and NVTF and I only had one crash/hang at the beginning of the second day of streaming, when I sat on the main menu for a long time and then loaded the game from Continue. I restarted and everything was fine. Otherwise I had no weird performance or crashes.

I run a few more of the stability mods but honestly I haven't had the game crash in years at this point. I think it helps that I'm not going crazy with visual or script heavy mods. New Vegas is in a really nice place nowadays.

Vanilla FNV at launch (on PC) was a stable, bug-free experience.

# ? Oct 27, 2020 17:40 |

It was surprisingly bug-free for me going from memory, with the exception of that one patch that made a bunch of enemies invincible for like a day. That was a trip. (Not as funny and enduring in people's memories as the one patch that made Skyrim's dragons fly backwards, though.)

There was a shipped bug in Vault 11 that caused one of the turrets in the "afterlife" portion to be aligned with Mr. House for some reason. So the first time I played the game his securitrons came after me loaded for bear as soon as I entered the Strip. I think I just started a new game, as House was my first end-game alignment.

Stutter fix has been obsoleted by New Vegas Tick Fix and New Vegas Anti Crash as well as the Mod Limit Fix can help with stability.

If you want to make the game as stable and bugfree as possible, just the "core" section of the Viva New Vegas guide is all fixes/stability and is really well put together. The only mod in core that isn't strictly a fix is the delay DLC mod which you can happily skip. https://vivanewvegas.github.io/core-utilities.html If you skip to "ini tweaks" within core and go from there it'll skip all the stuff about setting up modding tools you probably don't need. I played 102hrs, timed out of curiosity, without a crash with a similar stability setup and much heavier engine load. If you take the minimum away separately I'd echo 4GB patch and NVAC, and also New Vegas heap replacer which is excellent.

So I installed Project Nevada for some of the cool gameplay stuff but I don't want to deal with Needs. But Needs will only "turn on" if I'm also playing on Hardcore, right? The mod won't effect the regular game in this regard?

One thing I remember PN changing in hardcore was that food and drink didn't heal and only restored primary needs which is total garbage and makes survival pointless and stimpacks solid gold. Project Nevada is pretty old, buggy, and laggy by now and everything it does is better done by individual mods. It literally runs 20 scripts every frame, bloats your save like crazy, and a bunch of the stuff doesn't work or is, imo, total poo poo like a bunch of rebalance and the visors. Dynamic Crosshair, Bullet Time, and Sprint Grenade Hotkey First-Person Visor Overlays Enhanced Vision Immersive Health Visuals Explosive Entry Immersive Primary Needs Inventory Sorter I strongly recommend jsawyer for rebalance, funnily enough dude knows what he's doing

I was not familiar with Arizona Slave Army but it seems to be a pretty broad range of scattershot changes. You can open up FNVEdit and see the conflicts, of which there will be a LOT. I seems to edit everything from item stats to levelled lists and other random stuff. It'll conflict with a wide range of mods you might use, and the comments are all bugs and errors. I'd probably avoid it

If anybody wants to spice up the variety of super mutant heads a little bit, this mod is pretty good, though I personally prefer the original Tabitha head with the glasses on, so I disabled bridget.nif and the base nightkin head in MO2: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/70177

My entire mod list (with the 4GB patch, of course) is: MCM JIP JIP Companions Nevada Skies A Wasteland in Bloom Cheat Terminal And, aside from making the mistake a few times of alt+tabbing out which apparently starts a memory leak which will reliably crash the game a few minutes later, I've only had one crash in a couple hundred hours. I'm pretty sure that (apart from the alt+tab memory leak thing) the game is rock solid as-is and only becomes crashy as you add dozens of mods.

I believe the VNV page suggests an alt-tab fixer mod. I haven’t had any problems with memory leaks after installing it, and I’m alt tabbing constantly for quests.

Yeah, the difference in stability between my cherry-pick mass of mods from the OP and a VNV install is night and day. That's really the exceptional bit of it, that it's mod-heavy without being unstable. I've added some Someguy mods and it's a little twitchy - at some point in my game the Recharger Rifle mod shut itself off - but it works fine and it's that Content I crave.

A good chunk of the Core VNV installation isn't really needed unless you want a heavily customized experience, to be honest. To just get the game more stable and with less bugs, I'd honestly only arguably add WMIM and WMIM addendum because of its fixes to iron sight to what Rope Kid already installed.

"Don't tell me how to live my life." https://i.imgur.com/0Z1Is3K.mp4 I won't stop adjusting MoMod and IWS till there are at least five Sand Lizards or some other monster jumping out at me on the way to Johnny.
