Basically how do I make this game into STALKER

Sorry for the delay with the CSR beta, I attempted to give it one last check-over but new hard drive issues got in the way. So hopefully this ought to work: download here, install the 'Core' resource and the 'CSR' addon for it. It's set up that way as Core's designed so you can hook other companion mods on and they all share commands. Then all you need to do's take the Companionable perk to use it. There's no icons for the perks ATM though, I was hoping to ask The3rdType for some when it gets closer to release. Cream-of-Plenty posted:This sounds really clever. How balanced is it--as in, do I have a cap on the number of NPCs I can recruit in a single sitting? Or can I simply go around and, with enough points invested in speech, recruit a small standing army?

Naky posted:How do I remove Master file dependencies in GECK? I accidentally had Calibr.esm checked when working on my mod and now it's an unwanted master for the weapon pack. I tried removing it in FNVEdit and it didn't work. If you've got a series of masters (like Calibr, Master2, Master3) then deleting the first one sometimes causes the records to get bent out of shape as some records are looking for the third master when you only have 2. If you alter your load order to Calibr comes after Master2 and Master3 then save in the GECK it'll rearrange the master list to Master2, Master3, Calibr then you can remove Calibr and nothing gets lost.

So, ah... ages ago I posted an near-release-but-untested New Vegas version of Companion Share & Recruit in this thread. Can anyone actually remember if it was crap or worked? I ended up taking a slightly unplanned break from modding (when you spend all day wrangling Fortran for your project, the last thing you want to do is code more), but figure I oughtta actually finish it now. Also, anything new in the past 4 months? [aha]

randombattle posted:I'm thinking about making a mod though I haven't made one before in f3/nv but I want to make a mod so you can use Hokuto Shinken from Fist of the North Star. I think I know how to do it but I'm not sure how easy it is access some of the stuff necessary. The basic stuff like perks unlocking and giving you the different abilities are easy enough but some of the things I'd like to do might be outside the realm of the geck. If you extract the meshes\characters\_male and _1stperson directories from the .BSAs, you'd want to find the Ripper anim 1hmattackSpin.kf and a random hand-to-hand attack (e.g. h2hattackleft_a.kf). Then open them both in NifSkope, find the Text Keys in the tree, and copy the Ripper's text keys to the unarmed attack. Then click on the Controller and change the name to AttackSpin to match the Ripper's, put your new animation in the appropriate places in your NV folders, problem solved. The downside is of course the two animations are completely different lengths and the various events occur at completely different times- so you need to play around with the timings on the text keys to ensure it doesn't cut out halfway through a punch, and so that the loop isn't too jerky. There's a crude example here: Link.

Bodypart data looks good, although given the damage dropoff when not shooting the torso it'd be nice if they made it slightly easier to cripple limbs as a tradeoff. --- Got a question for the people who use guns in NV (I generally use energy weapons)- I've got some code that can be used to turn any semi-auto weapon into a burst-fire one, but I can't really figure out how to apply it. Currently I've got a single craftable burst-fire rifle, but that seems a tad limiting when the functionality could just as easily be applied by having craftable 'Burst' ammo or a 'Burst Mode' slotless apparel item you equip/unequip to toggle it you can get by taking a perk. No idea which one of those methods would be the best fit for how people actually want to play guns characters though, and what the best way is to filter out guns that are inappropriate for burst fire beyond 'No fully automatic weapons' and '2 hand automatic grip type' to filter out the bolt-actions. Restricting it to a custom ammo of specific calibres (like, say, .556) or a whitelist of Burst-OK weapons runs into issues with mod-added ammo types and weapons, but allowing any ammo type to use it means burst-fire Sniper Rifles. I'm leaning towards any ammo type as it seems better to let people do stupid things than prevent them doing sensible stuff, but then that means using the slightly odd 'Burst Mode' apparel toggle. E: Of course I could just be overthinking this, but I figure no point doing something if you're not going to do it properly. Up to a point, at least.

Naky posted:The script just tracks when the player fires, and fires 2 more shots- it can be stuck on an item, or a quest, or a weapon, the only complicated part of it is deciding whether or not the weapon equipped deserves those extra shots. That said I've just discovered you can get the shots per second of a gun through NVSE, so putting a minimum shots/sec for burst mode to work is probably a good filter.

It's using a NiNode, rather than a BSfadeNode (a sort of new version, used in the Fallout nifs), you can swap between the two with rightclick->block->convert. Some types of usage need NiNodes, some need fade nodes, and I can't remember which is which- it's easiest to check by opening a mesh of the type you're trying to make to check. Plus, it's using a TexturingProperty rather than a BSShaderPPLightingProperty for the texture, which suggests the import process did something a little wrong- it must've set it up as a Morrowind .nif or something. And there's a bunch of loose properties, but I don't think they impact anything. You'd probably be better off taking the .obj, importing it into a 3d package like Blender that has Nif export scripts, and exporting it as a .nif from there as they have game setup options.

Cerebulon posted:The mesh goes vaguely the colour of the texture selected (Because the texture isn't made for the mesh at all and is stretched to hell) but the exported nif is still pure white untextured.   I forgot to point out you need to select tex->new texture before step 3, set texture type to image. Also, the texture you pick in step 4 can be pretty much anything (I just used a random picture I had lying around); it doesn't matter if it's not a valid image type, the mesh will export with the texture bits correctly (as long as you've UV-mapped it) and you can just reselect a texture in nifskope. I have no idea how that'll interact with the texture painting and UV mapping you've already done, whether or not you can just export the texture or what, as the most complex thing I've worked on that wasn't already textured is a simple cylinder. harrygomm posted:Fake Edit: I've managed to change the FO3 script to the FNV one fine, but I'm not 100% sure the implementation is correct. The original tied to a copy of the starter outfit that was invisible and tracke dwhen it changed cells, incremented a value, then when a couple other conditions were met, ran PCB. The new version obviously runs every 10 minutes. So I'm wondering also if it is still necessary to tie the script to an invisible quest or if the script can be initialized in some other manner. The GECK tutorial on scripting was a bit barebones and I've not been able to find a good resource to consult on the matter elsewhere. You should be able to open a .esm/.esp file using the TESSnip feature of Fallout Mod Manager.

There's no need to increment numbers yourself if you're using FNVEdit because it displays the proper syntax for you.

On the topic of Nexus being terrible, the 'welcome' thread for the Modders Only forum has about 5 sides of A4 paper worth of some guy rambling about how the minimum download count should be 5x higher to prevent the riff-raff getting in, in which he completely manages to ignore the fact that there's wildly different numbers of people actually downloading for each game, and the download rate also varies greatly- just after Oblivion release you could get 1000 downloads on anything, whereas that's going to take some effort 7 months after NV's release.

It's not really that hard to chop armour into bits with Blender, but yeah, splitting it up to be actual separate trousers and shirts is a bit hard. The easy way to do it would be to import another armour into Blender and combine the two. 1: Select bits in object mode and either delete wholesale or go into edit mode, control-drag to area select parts, hit delete. 2: Select the skeleton, import->nif->click parent to selected. 3: Repeat the step 1 for new bits. Some fiddling may be required, but just selecting a few things and playing with the movement arrows and scaling will probably be good enough. 4: Export using Fallout 3, Clothing, Cloth settings. 5: Tadaa. Ish.

Police Automaton posted:Actually you kinda can attach an OnDeath to every enemy rather easily, by running an actor effect on them. Scripted base effects run with scope on the actor so they can have an "OnDeath" block as long as they are running, this also doesn't override an already present OnDeath block, they get executed both. There are quite a few ways to attach actor effects on targets or on people in a certain way from here on. Please keep in mind that this can probably eat quite a bit of system performance if done wrong though.

Mr. Crow posted:The short version from memory is NPCs need to "have" a topic in order to show it. What this means in practice IIRC you basically add all the topics you've made to the "Add Topic" list (or something similar) of the NPC's GREETING then what you want for him to actually display in the "Choices Topic". The "Top Level" checkbox has some weird behavior but one of the things it does is cause a certain topic to always show up on any level of the dialogue tree. Or that was a bug I don't remember, but you shouldn't need to mess with it I don't think. Basically just make a quest for the dialogue, conditionalise it on GetIsID YourNPC (so the dialogue only shows on your NPC), then start adding topics- a root and two branches. The 'root' should have Top Level flagged so it shows up by default. Create a new info, then write whatever, then in the Choices box for that info select your two branches. Then you can make infos for those branches that further branch, you can have them link back to earlier branches, whatever. If you want to add a new top level topic later, you can use the AddTopic box to do it. When the player visits a topic the game goes down the list of infos in that topic from first to last and displays the first one to meet all the conditions- so if your topic is called "Here's 10 Stimpacks", you could have the first info be conditionalised on GetItemCount Stimpack < 10, have it be "Not enough!", then have the next info be conditionless- as if it fails the first check (i.e. the player has >9 stims) it'll automatically go to the second one. N.b. though, conditions run on the speaking actor by default, so to change them to run on the PC you need to alter them from Run on Subject (i.e. speaker) to Run on Target (i.e. person being spoken to).
