SeanBeansShako posted:Also, I discovered something neat. A big mod team is doing a huge expansion sized total conversion mod based on the Khan's from New Vegas settling in Wyoming. Looks pretty drat promising so far. There's also Fallout Cascadia which is a big mod team doing Fallout: Seattle http://falloutcascadia.com/About edit: Also, on the topic of general mods, if you're going to recommend snap and build and Homemaker (which as of Monday at least completely overwrites the menus such that you can't access anything added in far harbor), you should really include Settlement Keywords Expanded: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/12226/ It puts all of the misc add-on settlement stuff into their own menu namespace so nothing ever overwrites anything that Bethesda might add in. S&B has a SKE patch, SKE itself has one for Homemaker. Azhais fucked around with this message at 07:49 on Jun 9, 2016 |

FlyinPingu posted:So, in the case of "stolen" mods (a concept I still find dubious, considering Bethesda 100% owns any mod created for their games, end of story,) that are put up for the xbox, doesn't that mean that the modder could just... put them up themselves? Meaning that the only reason they don't is some childish disdain towards console users and/or bethesda? I mean, if they don't want to properly support an xbox release they could just put it up as is and say that, "hey, I'm not going to fix any issues that might pop up for this version, but here it is." Bethesda is basically disclaiming all ownership with the way they're doing conflict resolution. In a lot of cases the real mod and the fake mod(s) are both on there.

Entropic posted:I hope they don't completely replicate the iOS game mechanics with raider attacks and everything. I'd actually love a mod that lets you trigger raider attacks on your settlements to put those defenses to use, but having raiders be able to break down your vault door and raid your vault kind of flies in the face of the entire basis of Fallout lore. It totally is just fallout shelter. Their trailer clearly showed raider attacks, as well as the fallout shelter side view of the vault

Kimsemus posted:> Kill a Legendary Super Mutant Behemoth I'm still failing to understand what argument you guys are trying to make with all your sarcastic comments. Legendary hunting is poo poo, we all seem to agree on that. This mod removes the guaranteed good weapon/legendary combinations that some of the unique weapons represented and goes back to having to kill legendary mutant behemoths until you get a good effect on something you can move the unique effect over to. In my last game through 95 levels I got exactly one decent legendary drop in the form of an instigating sniper rifle (and 27 crippling pool cues in my crippling pool cue box at last count). Everything else I used was a purchased unique, none of which would have been purchased in the brave new world of that mod. Is there an option to only get the new appearances, because that'd be awesome.

Saint Sputnik posted:I gave the beta of Mod Organizer 2 another try but I'm still having the same issue as the first time -- the mods all load, because it doesn't give me any missing mod errors, but none of the mods actually load -- all invisible meshes etc. I'd like something less cumbersome than "run .bat file to add asterisks to the load list" because it doesn't actually work half the time and I have to restart Yeah, after I hosed up my mods (external to any program) and reinstalled fallout entirely I decided to try MO2 (the latest beta that supported 1.5) instead of NMM since everyone kept saying it was better and NMM was "unintuitive" (whatever that means, just hit the drat checkbox, what's to be intuitive?) and it was a real hassle getting anything functional out of it. I was tearing my hair out trying to get even trivial mods working right, half of the installers didn't seem to work, and I finally gave up on it entirely after trying to install a mod and it kept giving me poo poo about "Can't figure out how to install this, here, have a drag and drop interface and I'd like you to rearrange the files until this box goes green". NMM, on the other hand, installed it all cleanly the first time and it all worked as expected

FronzelNeekburm posted:This really doesn't sound right. Did you have the current beta version of MO2? Are you running Fallout 4 by choosing it from the drop-down in the top-right and clicking "Run"? Did you install Fallout to C:\Program Files (x86)? I was running the current beta. It absolutely refused to allow me to select any options in the installers, they were all greyed out. Like Vacidil's item sorting, or eyes of beauty, or cbbe, or any clothing mods, it was all defaults or nothing. And in multiple of those cases the defaults are literally nothing because you have to click checkboxes for what you actually want to install. As for the non-standard layouts, NMM can figure it out, so could MO2 if they cared. Uninstalling can be tricky if there are files from one mod overwriting another, but worst case there's a "reinstall all" button that will generally cause it to unfuck itself. I very, very, rarely uninstall mods unless I'm flat out starting over clean so it hasn't come up much.

Seashell Salesman posted:What's it do? Scrap every possible thing within the cell, a certain radius, the entire game? It sounds great for vanilla scrapable items, but with the expanded scrap mods I'm afraid it would remove too much stuff (eg. in Sanctuary you'd end up with no roads, foundations, retaining wall around the river). It scraps everything scrappable using the normal tools within the current settlement. This includes crafting benches and dropped weapons/armor, so you need to be at least somewhat cognizant of what you're up to (or be able to rebuild the benches), but for most places that aren't the red rocket it doesn't matter much. It won't destroy random other structures if you couldn't R/E them anyway. 8 Ball posted:Does scrapall work with mods like Spring Cleaning? Hmm, I've not tried it tbh.

Falcon2001 posted:What's the best way to move a shitton of stuff from one settlement to another? Is there a linked inventory or something? Supply lines with Local Leader will let junk be used in other stations, and allows excess food/water at one settlement feed another, but you can't deposit in one settlement and withdraw in another, it's virtual. If you actually want to bulk move everything, waiting til you have access to vertibirds works nicely. It also works passably to send settlers from all over the place to the settlement you want to clear out, loading them up, then reassigning them to the place you want everything. They can only carry like 100wt each, but it can add up.

Seashell Salesman posted:Okay that's what I figured initially but I don't understand why anyone would want their UI mod to make all items weightless. Well, non-survival has aid and ammo weightless anyway, so a lot of that is returning it to non-survival values. I personally keep everything but junk at vanilla values, and set junk to the "weight of components" version. Most things end up lighter, some get heavier, and while it doesn't make a lot of sense that a toaster suddenly weights like .2 lbs, it's a lot less irritating than some 5lb item containing a single screw.

Note that war of the commonwealth isn't "hard", it's basically impossible at max spawns (at least on survival) at early levels anyway. Bumping into level 20+ top tier enemies as you exit the vault isn't survivable or (imo) fun in the slightest.

Apoplexy posted:Dude, thank you. I thought it was just me, so I fired up the mod in ye olde xEdit, turns out the fucker mod author wasn't content with just adding tons and tons of spawn points, THAT ARE CONFIGURABLE, but he had to change every encounter zone level to an absurd range. There's NOWHERE you can go at level 1. Everything you encounter will be able to kill you in one hit, even with survival options changed so that incoming and outgoing damage are 100%. It's sucky. Yeah, I don't like it at all. The guy just literally painted the landscape with spawns, no rhyme or reason. I had high hopes for his "make the wasteland seem alive" but that'd require putting some thought into why spawns are in certain areas vs everything everywhere. I've been tempted to look into how it all works, make a WotC type mod that adds thematically appropriate spawns, more patrols from the various enemy strongholds (i.e. have tons of gunners roaming from Quincy to 95 to Mass Fusion), that sort of thing. And also include bumps to the friendly factions, so there's actually a war at diamond city vs the current scenario where it is a wholly owned subsidiary of Deathclaws, Inc.
