Actually make a merged patch. Load up NVedit with your load order enabled. Right click any of the ESPs, extend the bottom option, and select Create Merged. Read the prompts from there. It isn't perfect, but better than not, and should at least improve some of the mod compatibility, and in theory, stability. Anyway, once it is done, (shouldn't take but a few moments), quite and save the new ESP. Load up the BOSS GUI, and get the user list editor going. Add a new rule for the merged patch you created to load at (top or bottom) of the "Merged Patch" category. The category option can be found on the far right tab (basically hidden behind the load order panel. Finally, actually run BOSS.

Has anyone had a problem with Unified HUD recognizing Imp's More Complex Needs? UHUD finds all my other HUD tweaks just fine, but refuses to recognize Imps, and none of the HUD additions are showing up in game. In addition, when I use Mod Config Menu, I can't actually manipulate any of the HUD options. They're there, and I can click on them, but nothing happens. There's also a lot of "no image here" messages, so something is up.

WME, with the GRA add-ons, is supposed to integrate GRA weaponry into the game and make them basically just regular weapons, right? Why do some merchants in my game still sell GRA-tagged weaponry, then? It's not a huge deal, since I can just not buy them, but buying one as a test revealed it to have Orphaned GRA Mods as the potential mods, so it really seems like I shouldn't be able to get these anymore. I have a suspicion it has to do with the trick I had to use to get WMEVE to work properly. Anyways, can someone take a look over my load order and tell me if there's something that would cause this minor, yet annoying issue?code:

Try making a Merged Patch. Also, run BOSS first. You also don't need all 4 secret stash ESPs, just pick one.

Is running BOSS that good of an idea? I seem to remember it would gently caress up my load order. Like, the instructions in some mod would list a specific order with other mods, and BOSS wouldn't be aware of these rules, or I would run BOSS, then FNVEdit would come back with a million conflicts.

BOSS is only as good as the information you put in, so, sure, spot check it after. I think it should do a better job notifying you "so I don't know about this mod, I didn't move it around" but in general it's a good thing to run and has saved me problems many times. There are two things to keep in mind: First, mod authors might not know any better than you do what order their mods really need to be loaded in. I probably have 25 mods which claim to need to be at the top or the bottom of the list. You can see how this doesn't work for 23 of them. I think there's a habit to claim "put it at the top" or "put it at the bottom" to try and prevent problems from people who are completely ignorant of mods and modding and overrides and it's the safest thing to say when dealing with the lowest common denominator. Second, you can always change things after a BOSS autosort.

Watch out bad guys of the Mojave, there's some new lawmen in town. (Dammit Raul, put some more vigor into your vaquero-ing) I don't know if the mod has been posted already, but here's a link. It's the getup from Clint's The Man with No Name character, and there's a poncho-less version available if that's your preference. It also comes with two guns: Clint's Fistful (single action) and No Name (double action) and both guns play The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly theme when you draw and holster them (YYMV on that part).

First, I wanted to say this thread is what made me sign up for a membership. Kudos to you all. Second, is there any particular reason the whole of the "New Vegas Uncut" series isn't added to the op. Besides Freeside and the Vegas Strip causing some stuttering, I can't see any reason that series of mods isn't something everybody should use on the regular. Oh, and purge cell buffers mod doesn't seem to exist anymore.

Another more general question, although it might be OP worthty: is there a way to combine esps? I know NV has a bit of a temper past 150 active esps. Is there a way to squish some related, like weapon additions, together using NVedit or a different program?

I'm throwing together a mod for a Tale of Two Wastelands that adds Project Nevada's Cyberware implants to the Capital Wasteland and a doctor to do the implants. I've got all of the hand-placed ones placed (anything in PN that was hand-placed, I hand-placed), all that's left are the ones for sale. What's the best way to place these in the vendor lists to avoid conflicts with other mods? I've always used "AddToLeveledLists" scripts, but will this cause problems if the mod is uninstalled? Basically, Pinkerton gets all of Usanagi's implants, and the Julie Farkas, Vendortron and Old Lady Gibson implants are going to some other vendors, probably Seagrave Holmes, Crazy Wolfgang, and Moira, respectively. Edit: Looking at it now, PN just uses merchant containers. I suppose this is best? Alasyre fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Nov 20, 2013 |

Okay, I'm not sure this is mod related but I may as well ask here: For some reason, after I accidentally activated the trapped terminal in the Repconn Test Site basement, the explosion sound effect from it is on a constant loop. If it was only in there, it wouldn't be TOO terrible, but it seems to carry over into completely inexplicable other areas, like Helios One. I can't seem to find a way to deactivate or reset the sound effect or anything. If I go to where the terminal exploded, the electrical effect is still on-going as well. Any way to reset or remove the stuff from the game? I tried disabling it but disabling the terminal doesn't seem to also disable the explosion.

The problem with scripts is that there is no real way to clean your saves if you add poo poo to leveled lists via a script. It minimizes doing poo poo like making a merged patch and managing load orders but fucks your saves if you decide to uninstall it.

So is TTW worth the trouble? I want a game with better balance, more weapons and armor, scarcity, increased spawns, and more interiors to explore (as per the mod loadout in my last post), but I don't want to spend a ton of time setting it up, only to realize two days into a playthrough that it's broken in some fundamental way. Is there some canonical list of NV mods, whether they work with TTW, and their TTW extensions/counterparts?

Is there some canonical list of NV mods, whether they work with TTW, and their TTW extensions/counterparts? The TTW site has tons of mods listed on their website, including TTW adaptations of big overhauls like PN and ports of FO3 mods to make them work. With the number of mods you have running in that load order, you might need to play with some things (like maybe condensing all of those Armory .esps into a single plugin) I'm also unsure if Caliber, AAS or CCO have had any patches made for TTW. I'm not familiar with "Kobu's New Game Quick Start and Better Rebuild.esp" but I'm going to go ahead and say it won't work with TTW. Most New Vegas mods shouldn't have an issue working properly, at least in the Mojave. If IWS alters spawn locations in the Mojave, it wouldn't have any affect in the Capital Wasteland; someone would have to do a TTW version, or port a similar mod from Fallout 3. The really problematic NV mods will be anything that gives you items right away, since the Vault 101 intro sequence has a habit of emptying your inventory whenever a "10 years later" screen flashes. Also, since you won't be starting the game at Doc Mitchel's house, any mod that dumps items into a container in Goodsprings (like the cabinets from the Armory) won't be available right off the bat. TTW is a great combo of the two games, but if you are dead set on keeping your existing NV mods, it will take some trial and error.

Is there some canonical list of NV mods, whether they work with TTW, and their TTW extensions/counterparts? While TTW itself doesn't change either game's balance (except maybe Fallout 3, since it adds reloading benches), it does indirectly affect balance, since each game is intended to be started at level 1. If you finish the Fallout 3 portion, when you move on to New Vegas, most of the early skill checks are trivial. If you're at a high enough level, the whole New Vegas portion will be a breeze. Sticking to a level cap and an XP reduction mod (there's one specifically for TTW) might help. There's a few balance mods for TTW that make New Vegas harder; I think one causes you to lose all your equipment when Benny shoots you. Otherwise, the game plays great with a few bugs (Operation Anchorage is bugged for some people, preventing you from finishing the simulations, a few missing meshes on the building in the national mall (for me at least), and other oddities). It definitely makes Fallout 3 more fun, but the main quest is kind of comical when played alongside New Vegas. If you really liked exploring the Capital Wasteland, it's worth it. Here's the thread for TTW Mods. Her's another thread specifically for FO3 conversions to TTW. Alasyre fucked around with this message at 16:15 on Nov 20, 2013 |

Actually this is an awesome example, because the use of iron sights makes sneaking/sniping a lot more fun and effective. Plus, ammo is still pretty scarce in the CW. You still maintain that sense of helplessness in the CW at first, but when you get to New Vegas, you're kind of a badass. Exploring the CW was the main reason I stated using TTW, myself.

So I'm currently using Project Nevada (as my only mod), and I'm looking to add the following mods to my game: Roleplay Start Mod Signature Armor Weapon Mods Expanded (WME) Signature Weapons GRA Right to Bear Arms Is there anything I should know about any of these going in? I'm already planning to start with a new character, so that will be clean. On WME/WMX, I've been waffling between them for a while, which is why I've just been rolling with Project Nevada alone. Does anyone have any opinions on the two, or know of a different one they prefer? Also, I might be up for some additional location mods (new vaults, interiors, etc, nothing too exploity though). Is there anything not in the OP (or something in the OP that people really like) that you would recommend?

Using AddToLeveledLists works fine (the DLC use it without problem). But once you add a form to a list with this function, the edit will persist in the save game and can't be undone. This has the potential to cause problems when your user wants to uninstal your mod. Directly editting an existing list or creating a new list and adding it to an existing container are both rather messy methods and require that the user creates a patch. I'd avoid both.

I personally run WME, but that's because it has better compatibility with EVE. Then again, considering the WME guy disappeared, I should probably run WMX the inevitable next time I play New Vegas. Too late in my current game to switch over now though.

So Roleplay Starts is kinda crummy. The "quest" for your faction at the start isn't much. The Brotherhood of Steel one just has you click on a radio to "Report In" (which just lets you create your character), and then you open a locker and get some Brotherhood themed gear (Recon Armor, Plasma Rifle, Powerfist, and the courier six envelope.). You do start in Hidden Valley, but not in the actual bunker (which I guess I understand), but it would have been nice to at least talk to another drat Initiate before getting thrown out. It's also kinda broken. I tried to do the NCR start, and it locked up the game. You can use the character creation thing as many times as you want, which was interesting since Logans Loophole disapeared the first time I used it and I was able to get three traits. Doesn't matter though, I deleted the drat thing. Signature Armor and Weapon is great, although I just wish there was a better selection of gear in Goodsprings. I only got my 5.56 Pistol by chance, during the Powder Ganger attack (thank you WMX!), and that was after I'd already been working on a 10mm Pistol for a while. GRA Right to Bear Arms is great. I've already got a bunch of mod blanks, now I just have to get to the drat machine. Enemies carrying around GRA versions of the weapons has been nice to see, now I'm just waiting for one of them to toss one of the GRA explosives at me and blow me to hell and back. The only issue I have with WMX is that most of the mods you can build yourself are melee, very few are ranged. Which I guess makes a certain amount of sense, but still. Somewhat disapointing. Hopefully I'll be able to find a vendor with a bunch of mods that isn't that rear end in a top hat Chet!
