the idea was more that it was a revolver that held energy caplets more than anything. but in the end it really doesn't make a whole lot of sense that way. on that train of thought, I took the time to draw over the render and get a better idea in mind based on what everyone said.


now it's just straight up energy weapon. there's more damaged parts and panels taken off for maintenance, moved the cylinder to face straight back, and had the handle is a replacement for what might have originally been there. also standard microfusion cell instead of trying to have the weird revolver ammo set up.

that a bit better?

I really like the bolted on, not original handle. Almost makes you wonder if it wasn't originally a tool or part of some larger machine and it got fitted over the years to melt faces.

So he doesn't make them match the voice actor (as in making them physically look like the voice actor). He just makes generalized designs based on the voices. So if a guy "sounds" black, ie. Tyrone or Mister Holdout he makes them black. And if he sounds white, i.e Astor, Dawes (voiced by Jesse Burch and Ari Rubin (both white guys)) he makes them white. So he isn't making them look like the character itself but he changes the face to match the voice. Now...that being said, the mod is being stereotypical because it's assuming that all white people sound like x and all black people sound like y. but I have to admit that if I never played the game, the voices fit better the other way around. Mister holdout and Don Hostelter were pretty f-ing horribly mismatched.

Here's a video showing the voice stuff:

Thanks!

I personally think saying 'being stereotypical' is sugar coating 'that's pretty loving racist', but regardless of that it is honestly the most asinine change one could possibly make second only to carefully rendering the word 'SLUT' on every other dead woman.

Nuclear powered equipment is in an entirely different league of sophistication from a machine gun or bicycle. A nuclear powered vehicle would require an entity like the NCR government to maintain it, and I doubt they would make such an investment for civilians' sake. It would be a military vehicle.

Off the top of my head:
Gomorrah hooks their prostitutes on chems to make them compliant. At least one was murdered and the Omertas covered it up.
Cook Cook raped at least two characters (Betsy and Pretty Sarah) and ate a child.
Dermot and Saint James sold a family to Cook Cook and Saint James is implied to be a pedophile.
Siri warns female couriers that the Legionaries want to "try you out."
Jimmy was a Legion sex slave.

Honestly the prostitutes you hire in Wang Dang Atomic Tango are at least willing to work and goofy. The other stuff is treated pretty seriously and I dont think anyone would treat Saint James as a comic character.

Yeah, that none of the above is treated like wank material is a very important distinction

The amount of times in this loving thing that you do something, and the game acknowledges you did it, and NPCs acknowledge you did it, and then it turns around and acts like YOU DIDN'T is astounding.

I just rewatched his apology, and he owns to that being a lovely thing to do. Apparently he realized what a horrible thing to do that was, deleted it, and has felt remorseful and tried to be a better person since, leaving the toxic masculinity behind. Seems like it was a turning point, and he's tried to do better since, so benefit of the doubt, if he sticks to it.

His Fallout 76 content is good, because it means you don't have to play Fallout 76.

No quicksave/reload
No Backing out of Dialogue

No companions except for quest triggers

I watched the Worst courier vid and thought it was interesting but I think we can take it farther.

When you run out of ammo you switch to a new gun. You can't get rid of old guns or use them if you get more ammo, you have to find a new one.

Threads full of resources are less useful when people just make things up, though

Yes it's quite a sad day that we might have some small misinformation about the White CJ for San Andreas mod here in this, the Fallout: New Vegas Modding Thread. I am sure everyone who comes to this thread looking for details on a racist mod from a completely different game will be glad we spent the time to clear that up and call the person who posted about it names.


Is there anything to be done about the weird...I'd call it animation, but that might be incorrect, lag when firing an automatic weapon?

It's actually really bad so far, and all I've done is walk into the store and talk to the guy behind the counter named "Morgan" who asks me to find his buddy Arthur.

The NPC is fully voiced, but every line is full of lipsmacking and sounds kinda lovely, but what's much worse is what this dork has to say. First I asked him what he sold, and he calls me the hard R-word. Then I ask him to tell me about himself, which was a very big mistake.

He claims to have come from a small town in Florida where he lived with his merchant parents, and apparently his dad was abusive towards him and his mother. So one day Morgan kills his dad and takes all of his merchant profits to gently caress off and open a hotel. That's seriously his goal. For some reason he gets in a boat and just sails west until he gets to Texas, which he claims is filled with inbred hicks and nothing else. He refers to as "The Lone Chromosome State" before moving on. He then just starts heading West until he hits the Legion, who apparently tried to kill him on sight for some reason. He narrowly avoids them and keeps travelling eventually hearing about New Vegas (Literally just now. Why would he want to travel West to open a hotel if he didn't even know New Vegas or the NCR existed????), so he decides to head there. By the time he's gotten to Vegas he has spent most of his fathers fortune on "Chems, Liquor, and (Unkind name for sex-workers)" so cannot afford to open his dream hotel. Instead he is able to buy some bulk food off of the Crimson Caravan for a good deal (Impressive considering the food shortage), and for literally no reason at all calls Alice McLafferty the c-word. After she gave him a good price for the food. Wtf.

When asked about the NCR he says they're okay, but that he's into "personal liberty" way more and talks about how in an ideal world New Vegas would be completely independent. When asked how he feels about the Legion, he says he feels that anyone following them has an extremely low IQ and deserves to be killed "in the most spectacular fashion imaginable"

I am exactly two minutes and one conversation into this mod.

Oh and I forgot, the item he has the most of in his shops inventory is dog meat? Nine pieces of it lol.

So Nexus' next hot mod then

So I am having a really weird issue with NVSE suddenly

I did a fresh install, genned my ini files, tossed NVSE in and started up the game to make sure poo poo worked and...NVSE just opens a small window in the corner with a black screen and does nothing at all. Game starts up fine through vanilla methods, it's just NVSE doing this.

Sadly did not help

Wasn’t that mod as creepy as the frontier it just didn’t get any press for it at the time? I remember that a girl sexts you using the vault internet and also the writing being fallout 3 tier

There is certainly a lot of weird sexual insults and teenager levels of 'this is what ADULTS talk like!', I def wouldn't compliment this mod enough to say it reached FO3 levels


The biggest issue I really have with it is it assumes you've done a ton of leg work on background poo poo even when you haven't. Which leads to poo poo like..Go to this cave and fix the water supply line, ok cool but you get there and talk to the NPC on site and have an option to start babbling about FEV in the water supply
