Cirosan posted:So here's my first question: Would someone more skilled with FNVEdit be able to tell me if the patch merging would be a viable solution? It only gets tricky if individual plugins touch the same content. then you actually have to pay attention to what you're doing and carefully merge things.

Ariong posted:Uh oh, I have another problem. My text is huge suddenly and I see no way to fix it in the settings Fonts are handled through the .ini files. So you either forgot a step in the installation process (.ini editting), or your changes were overwritten by the New Vegas Launcher. The game itself reads from the .ini file from the My Documents\My Games\FalloutNV directory. But any time you boot the New Vegas Launcher it will override that .ini with that of the game's instal directory. Either simply don't use the New Vegas Launcher, or be sure to edit the .ini in both directories.

Cream-of-Plenty posted:So FOMM's TESSnip, then? For example JSawyer mod changes the metal armour's agility penatly to a penalty to sneak. It added a new base effect to do this. If you just copy the metal armor's object effect, its entry will try to refer back to Jsawyer mod for the sneak-penalty base effect. So what you need to do is copy the base effect to your new mod. Then change object effect's entry to refer to your new base effect and then copy it over. I may be making this sound more complex or difficult then it is. It really is simple to do in FNVEdit, if a bit tedious and time comsuming. Raygereio fucked around with this message at 00:28 on Nov 18, 2012 |

Ariong posted:Is there a mod that allows you to recruit 2 human or 2 non-human companions? Further, is there a reason why it's not like that in the first place? As for why: Game balance for one. If you have a big, well-equiped group pretty much all of the game's combat encounters become trivial. I did a run with Cass, Veronica, Rex & ED-E and found that more often then not the enemies were dead before I even noticed them. That and in tight spaces they're way more likely to get in your way and become a nuisance. So unless you feel like sitting back and doing nothing, I wouldn't drag every single companion along. Endymion FRS MK1 posted:http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/46302 The increased buffersizes can help performance if you have the memory to support it. But again: increasing various buffersizes can cause crashing & freezing. GameBryo! No ammount of .ini tweaking can enable dx10/11 feature seeing as the engine doesn't have any. But I suppose the increased draw distances can make the game look nicer.

ANy time I access a vendor list (Gun Runners, Travelling Merchants) or the weapons list in my Pip Boy - instant CTD. If not, then it could be a bugged item in your inventory. Make a solid save, drop all items you can and pick stuff up one by one and see if the crash happens. Note that some mods add items to your inventory that are flagged to be undroppable. If the crash still happens with a new save; Disable one of your mods, test for the crash with a new game. Repeat until you've found your culprit.

You can just rip out the delete-corpse-and-place-ash-pile nonsense completely and have the glowy vxf play on the body. However, for it to look good you'll need to do some editing to the laser's crit effect shaders and I've found little to no documention on that. So that ought to be fun.

I know you can set bare minimums, eg, if your repair is above 50, you have the recipe. But can you set it up so you only have a repair above 30 but below fifty? Edit: There may be a workaround though. What you could try is setting up your recipe to require a hidden perk A. Then have a script running in the background that checks the player's skill and when it reaches 30 to add perk A and then when the skill goes above 50 to remove perk A.

Or said mod is fine, but you installed it wrong or aren't using ArchiveInvalidated. If you're using EVE, the problem is probably EVE and not something you did wrong.

Trustworthy posted:I started using CASM a while back, and set it to cycle through like 30 saves. Over time, am I still going to have the same issue with bloat that I've gathered comes along with using the vanilla quicksave/auto-save options (but, I suppose, 30 times slower)? Should I be using as large of a number of saves as possible to slow this effect, or does CASM completely skirt this issue? If having 30 saves works for you, go for it. All that means is that you have more back up saves. You can experience slowdown if you keep a lot of saves though, so if you notice that delete a couple and set CASM to cycle through less.

Shockeh posted:Is there any way to play JSawyer without the DLC? I fancy replaying FO:NV 'As the Developer intended' but I've not bought any of the DLC, and don't really fancy sinking £20 more on Steam for the privilege. I saw a forum post that someone managed it with TESnip, but I'd have no idea where to start. DeadMoney.esm HonestHearts.esm OldWorldBlues.esm LonesomeRoad.esm GunRunnersArsenal.esm ClassicPack.esm CaravanPack.esm TribalPack.esm MercenaryPack.esm Then dump JSawyer mod in the data folder, start up your load order manager tool of choice and set your loadorder to load FalloutNV.esm first, then your nine dummy plugins and lastly JSawyer mod. Now go over to the nexus and grab FNVEdit, install and run it. With your dummy plugins, FNVEdit can actually load up JSawyer mod. Without it, it would complain there were missing masters. In FNVEdit, go to the JSawyer mod plugin's fileheader and remove the master file dependences to the DLCs. Next up, you'll want to clean the JSawyer plugin. Simplest way to determine what to delete is to just look at the first two numbers of the Form ID's (the 8 digit alphanumerical codes). For example, if your Dead Money dummy is number 01 in your loadorder, anything that tries to reference Dead Money will have a Form ID that starts with 01. So it it'll be safe to remove. Have fun. It's a bit tedious work, but not hard. That said: You should just fork over the money for the 4 story DLCs. They're good. Or just wait for the next big steam sale when they'll practically be giving them away. The 5 itempack DLCs are kinda meh and skippable.

I'm switching between the GECK and the game a lot and it's getting pretty obnoxious to be forced to sit through them time and time again. Those seconds start to add up, ya know. And they are there to hide the fact that the game game needs some time to boot up. If you mash Escape, or the mouse button a bit, the game will move to the main menu once it's done loading. Edit: You could try this setting in the fallout.ini file. fLoadingInitUpdateInterval=0.0000 That should make the transition between slides faster.

Can you reward XP on an item use / with a trait? Any help would be awesome, as I'm perusing the wiki and I'm not sure where to start, (I'll probably be better when it's not 2 AM.) If you're still learning the GECK, then dive in there and take a look at how ingestibles work. You could make a new Base Effect that runs a small script that rewards the player 29.450 XP. Then make a new ingestible that runs said Base Effect. Getting the ingestible onto the player can be done with a distribution quest: That's a quest that starts immediatly and only runs a script. That script that dumps the item onto the player and stops the quest.

Same with accuracy: You can grab an really accurate weapon like the brush gun and plink away at a targat a good distance away. But try to do the same with a weapon like the assault carbine that doesn't know the definition of accurate and you'll be lucky if one bullet out of a thousand will hit them.
