At any rate try disabling ECWO and see if that's the conflict.

myname_isdoug posted:I'm not sure if he actually comes from somewhere specific in the world, but he makes a beeline for you after you pick up a couple star caps, so it wasn't a "random encounter" in the sense I think you perceived it to be.  So are there any actual random encounters in the game that can happen anywhere? As opposed to ones that are triggered. I thought FallOut 3 had a few, like I once read that the alien ship crashing would occur in certain sectors or such.

There's a compatibility plugin folder. That being said, I'm not sure if it'll fix your problem--the readme for the IWS compatibility patches is pretty barebones, and eludes to moving some of the IWS spawns away from areas where Electro-city makes changes. I'm not certain this is because those conflicts caused crashes, or because those conflicts led to poo poo-tons of Fiends spawning on top of Electro-City engineer camps.

Magic posted:Huh, shame. Random things make players feel privileged that they occurred to them. FO3 had a bunch of random encounters and a set list of places where they could happen. Every time you went to a trigger (I think only if that trigger hadn't been used yet, though I may be wrong) there was a chance of one of the encounters happening. They were mostly just things like Wastelanders fighting creatures and stuff like that, but there was also one which had an Alien Blaster and a bunch of ammo fall from the sky. Here's a list of them.

Duke clearly appreciates having the proper lighting conditions in and around Vegas.

As for the Duke Tag, you must seek out His Dukeness, AxeManiac for such a privilege. I'm just a peon in that respect. Lockback posted:I'll give this a go. Thanks! Let me know if that fixes your problem. It's a good learning experience for the thread.

Schubalts posted:Adblockers ahooooy. I was being too awesome with my ad-block technology  Flashblock was intercepting it before adblock, so adblock wouldn't get to block it because it never detected it. If you allow flash from the Nexus suddenly adblock catches it and flashes for a second, then on to the file, bypassing the 30-second wait time.

I was able to save again by disabling all parts of ELECTRO-CITY, loading my save, save, exit, and then enable ELECTRO-CITY again. Sadly this only worked for a few days and it started making GBS threads out again. Where are you saved at that it's crashing? Just curious because I had absolutely no problems until I got to 188 Trading Post.

I'm getting close to the end of the initial testing for my pack and will be looking for a few more people for the final tweaking, minor bug catching, and feedback. If anyone's interested swing by my temp IRC chan on ircnet - #TheArmoryAlpha. If you don't have a good IRC client or don't want to bother with installing one and such, just grab ChatZilla for mozilla. Nice easy plugin with no installations.

I did the RP start and started in Freeside, so its been a fun game of dodging from locale to locale trying to push SouthWest to try and get to Goodpsrings. The frequency of crashing has gone up as I have gotten closer to the trading post. I'll try this.

Have any of you had any problems with the 3GB enabler? Ever since I installed it, the title screen has been slowed to a crawl and I crash any time I try to enter a building. I uninstalled it, but I haven't found a way to reattach the game to steam (the enabler broke this).

I liked the RP start but man, the game is really set up for you to be near Goodsprings at the beginning, I learned. You're like a delicate dandelion compared to everyone else. Also, don't be surprised but Doc Mitchell is glitched to gently caress when you finally get back. He kept telling me to sit down and begin the test and I couldn't get him to move on to his normal Doc mode.

So are there any good weapon packs yet that look nice and are balanced for the game instead of being cheaty?

Classic Fallout Weapons, Fallout 3 weapons restoration mod. You shouldn't run into anything overpowered and thanks to the style of the weapons they fit in nicely to new vegas. I'd also suggest taking a look at either Weapon Mod Expansion or Weapon Mods Expanded. They make it so each vanilla weapon supports more weapon mods and makes some weapon mods universal between weapons. Just don't mix the two, despite the easily confused names they are incompatible. Naky is also working on a big weapon pack that looks like it'll be pretty drat good. Edit: Amstrad is also making a melee/unarmed weapons pack if you're into that sort of thing.

The last bugfix update goes to the testers today... it may not have all the guns I wanted to release with, but I can always do that in an update. I was really trying hard to shoot for 100 guns and 50 melee, but at this point it's looking like about ~93-95 guns tops. There are a few that just aren't playing nice. edit: I'm still looking for a couple extra hands to look at this thing.

I just can never muster up the motivation to do tons of playthroughs so I really try to tweak as I go to make a game as fun as possible the first time I run through it. Currently, the only content-ish mods I run are wasteland defense, classic fallout weapons, and WMX. I really want to add IWS but I currently already have massive problems with ammo. I literally am down to 1-2 reloads most of the time and really worry about running into 30 ghouls and blowing through my ammunition completely. I don't want to "cheat" ammo in either... Any suggestions on how to alleviate this?

Mr. Crow posted:Buy more ammo? Don't use one gun? I try and carry one gun for each ammo type and I do fine. That's probably a tad excessive but with allies it's easy even if your Strength is low. Lot of times enemies in an area are all using the same gun so if thats not your ammo of choice youre kind of boned. Diversity is good.

This ensures you're never using ammo without getting it back, and to be honest ghouls are pretty easy to down with a super sledge. The only thing this isn't true for is cazadores and deathclaws, and maybe super sledge using mutants since they pack a bit of a punch. These three things shouldn't cripple your ammo as much as running into a ghoul pack guns blazing would, though. Wasting ghouls with guns is totally unnecessary since they all go down in about two swings with a super sledge.

You can make ammo but it's kind of self-defeating and easier to just sell excess ammo/buy new kinds. Take Scavenger (or whatever the ammo perk(s) are)? SheepNameKiller posted:Use melee on things that use melee, used ranged on things that use ranged.

Yes but you don't get the level of satisfaction out of mowing down hordes of ghouls with a mini-gun anywhere else.
