Mystic Stylez: Dec 19, 2009

For an explosives run, is any mod necessary or the vanilla game handles damage/splash damage/etc. in an okay (i.e. not underpowered) way?

Huh. Not sure why that would be happening. Checking now. All of the guns or just specific ones?

Edit: Also if you have an auto-save before you knocked the weapons off I'd load that up just in case and make a save.

Edit 2: I've looked at the weapons and tested it in my game and I can't get anything to budge. I'm not even sure how you'd get them to move, none of the weapons have any physics data and the GECK lists them as static objects. If you have a loadlist I'd be happy to take a look at it.

I've also been using Signature Armor and Weapon, really like the mod. I've got to ask, though, is there a console command to -remove- some of the perks I've chosen? At level 45+ I feel unstoppable and I think I pushed the stuff a bit too far, but I'd rather not re-level the equipment from scratch.

Also, I wasn't quite clear on how the durability perk worked. At level 3 it says you can repair the armor with scrap, but does that mean it also replaces the increased durability of the armor?

FOMM is broken and is causing crashes, the LAA patch is causing hardlocks and NVSE is freezing up the game as I try to exit. Is there a way to manually update these to work with the new DLCs and such, or is it time to play the waiting game?

What waiting game? FOMM, NVSE, and the LAA Patch listed in the OP all work with the latest version of NV. Something must be broken on your end. The only way to update all of those programs is manually. None of them automatically update themselves. If you're absolutely positive that the problems are originating in any of these utilities, download them again and re-install.

EDIT: I should also mention that they all work with the DLCs, as well. Including GRA and CS.

I've got space on my ammo shelves in Lombard Station and I must know what I'm missing :spergin:

Omnicarus, what goes:

1) Below the regular 5mm cartridges
2) Above the missiles
3) To the right of powder charges
4) Between the tiny tots/timed mini nukes/low yield nukes and the C4
5) Below the flamer fuel, to the left of the ordnance box
6) On the shelf to the right of the desk

I must fill all shelves :f5:

No, it's in addition to.

And I'm afraid there's no 'unleveling' ability.

Or, well. I suppose you could remove some of the perks it gives you with the console...

I reloaded the auto-save and that worked. My load order's a mess to be honest so it's probably something in there. I've never really had a knack for organizing them, but I'll post my load order when I get home. I just figured it might be on your end since UHNV has that problem whenever the walls are updated and apparently it was a problem with how his walls are set up. Yours seem pretty similar, so I figured it might be the same problem. As for what weapons, it's pretty much anything long from the melee and energy walls (super sledge, Gauss rifle, that kinda thing).

Strudel Man I continue to love your mods to death as it has defeated my innate desire to start characters over and over for some reason. The only sad part was running out of things to throw onto my stuff at level up :negative:

None the less excellent job and I can't thank you enough.

Only other mods I'm running are NV bounties 1/2. Only thing about them that piss me off is that I am never ever able to sneak up on the drat bounties with my 100 sneak and stealth field... because the events are all scripted. I read note, 40 goons instant spawn who can see men anyhow and I blow off all their legs with my nail gun. Once or twice makes sense, they planned for my arrival... But every freaking time.

But the stories are kind of interesting still looking for that legion gold... I haven't don a single story quest since installing bounties... I should probably get back on that. Also, dent looks and awful lot like the Stranger...

Apparently in order to do it, you have to edit the scripts that start the DLC to not deactivate the stations and possibly edit the stations to broadcast to everywhere. It seems like it'd be a bit troublesome, but I am still a babby modder so I don't really know for sure.

Speaking of DLC and radios, would anyone be interested in a Mysterious Broadcast: Extended? It'd be a viable radio station for listening to while in other DLCs without having to force RNV or MMR to work. I'm thinking I might do that one as a follow-up to Mojave Music Radio: Extended if there's any interest.

NVSE causes crashes to desktop after transition every eight or so cell transitions or fast travels for me, which is a shame as so many great mods are dependent on it. I've tested this extensively, comparing a vanilla install with all DLC, which is rock-solid stable, to one with just NVSE layered on top, no other mods or .ini tweaking and all remnants of prior installation purged, which results in regular, frequent crashing.

I would love for a extended version of the station. Just keep it's theme of old blues and jazz and maybe rename the station (I love that it always available, but hate how it always called the Mysterious Station). Maybe just call the station "Old World Blues" or something similar.
