I'd like to humbly pimp my own mods, I made four but here are the two that are worth a drat: Caps and Masks http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/8836/ Adds a bunch of hats and bandanas and poo poo.    Delta Wasteland Radio http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11087/ Includes about 70 old blues songs and a robot DJ. Currently working on some leveled lists so good armor collections like Femshepping and Elianora's will appear on NPCs.

Anyone want to help me test some leveled lists? http://www.filedropper.com/mergedclothes I took outfits from Commonwealth Survivalist Gear, Femshepping one and two (females only, male NPCs will default to something else), and Elianora and applied them to wastelanders, settlers, raiders, gunners and caravan guards. You'll need to download the original clothes packs for any of them to work. There are three separate .esps in the download, one for each, but to use all three together you need the merged patch in the download, placed below the other three in your load order. Caveat: I have no idea if one guy's merged patch will work for someone else. It might not, it all depends on form ID numbering. I googled the question but turned up nothing either way. I think the worst that could happen is that you just won't see all three clothes packs showing up at the same time.

The Iron Rose posted:It does - that's how all compatibility patches are made. I mean you probably aren't using the "merge plugin" feature for just two or three compatible mods, but all a merged patch does is manage record conflicts automatically. Record conflicts yeah, but the actual reference number for any piece of equipment or anything is going to be different for everyone depending on where it is in your load order, isn't it? That's why you need to use the "help" command in the console to get the ref ID for any item you want to give yourself from a mod, the mod maker could just tell you a number to use but that likely won't be the same for your own game

The Iron Rose posted:It'll be different sure, but it's not something you need to worry about, otherwise compatibility patches would be impossible. The plugin reference in the formID won't be the same, but it's automatically calculated based on load order so even when making compatibility patches you don't need to worry about it. Fallout handles it just fine, as does FO4Edit. OK, cool. Without looking, I assumed a lot of patches went the long and hard way, of adding the item IDs themselves or something all to the same file. I was dreading that. The issue I'm having now in my testing is Gunners and raiders spawning in just underwear and over-armor, with the new outfits in their inventory but not equipped. I changed the body part flags so the outfits should function as underarmor but it's still not happening.

I set that outfit thing aside for now because I finally figured out how I want to overhaul the skill system: Perk Paths. All the perks will fall under certain playstyle templates, like "Sniper," "Spook," "Duelist," "Extrovert" or "Survivor." Some paths or perks will be mutually exclusive (e.g. Night Person vs. Day Person) while a few perks will be attainable through different paths. For example, Locksmith will be attainable if you're on either the Spook (sneak-based) or Tinkerer (scrapping and crafting based) path, on account of your nimble fingers, but Pickpocket is strictly a Spook path perk. The first draft might be a little confusing unless it's actually possible to rearrange the stupid animated icons on the poster.

Mapped out my Perk Paths, here's the first draft. Paths which are fully or partially mutually exclusive are noted, and progression in each path isn't necessarily linear as shown. Tell me if it makes sense and if things are a good thematic/gameplay fit.

Found out by accident that you can completely rearrange the perk icons on the poster depending on what stat and level you assign each. They just don't all line up as well as in their original spots.

2house2fly posted:So wait, there's no way to do a merged patch on consoles? If you download two weapon packs then whoops oh well? I guess there might be megapacks or something eventually. Azhais posted:Just refuse to use any weapon mod that doesn't use armor and weapon keywords expanded Merged Patches make sure mods that add items to leveled lists don't overwrite each other, e.g. if two different mods make a new gun spawn on raiders, then without a patch the game will only use the list that's lower in the load order. The keywords mods only affect crafting lists, which almost never run into conflicts. They just keep things tidy and prevent running over some sort of crafting keyword limit in the game. Unless the architecture is completely different though, I don't see why merged patches couldn't work on consoles actually. Mods are locally stored info and load order still matters, and all a patch is is a new leveled list that includes copies of all mods you include when making it. Anyway, back to the first question, if you only care about being able to craft and use different guns yourself without worrying about whether they show up on merchants or baddies, you should be fine.

The alt start mod Live Another Life updated and it's weird and kind of bad now. Used to be you'd start the vanilla intro, make your character in front of the bathroom mirror, then get whisked away to a nondescript room where there's a terminal that lets you choose starting gear and location. Now you start in a "synth processing facility" and the gear and location are determined by the profession you choose. staberind posted:I shall admit that this news excites me a little, VTM was pretty excellent, Aren't there already perks like that? The Animal Friend/Wasteland Whisperer one pretty much covers everything, though if I ever make changes to how the perks themselves function I'd want to tack WW onto AF as higher ranks and do something else with the spot AF is in.

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. (Speaking of, has anyone noticed faster load times since the latest stealth game update?) SeanBeansShako posted:Oh this is OP levels of pretty drat good, Saint Sputnik could you possibly add this to the perk revamp as well? Looks good, I can see if he'll give me permission. I might take a lot of perk change ideas from other mods if I can. It also makes me think we need a new crafting table to handle things like this: a computer terminal.

Seashell Salesman posted:Can you explain a bit more about how this repros for you? I have experienced some weirdness about how the plugins.txt file is getting populated (or not, rather) but not what you are describing I don't think. The older stable MO works ok, just like I said, I have to run a .bat file to autogenerate asterisks in plugins.txt and even then, the game only recognizes the mods every other time. It worked pretty much right out of the box, before Bethesda hosed everything with that stupid asterisk thing, and I transferred over all my profile info -- pref.ini's and so on -- so I can see zero reason it wouldn't act like the older one and read mesh files without a problem, they're all right there in the main game directory. e: Robzilla posted:Pretty much the number one reason I love using MO.

I don't think I ever noticed xp gain myself either way because I play with the UI completely turned off, but I'll see if I can duplicate the problem. Did you use perkpaths on a new or existing game, and are you seeing the problem with all xp gain or just doing certain actions?

Basic Chunnel posted:I'm guessing that's it - I went straight for Vault Dweller to skip the extended intro and it probably gave me that "+5% XP from all sources" thing. Thing is, up until a certain point I was getting the notifications - it was only about halfway into building my Sanctuary fortress did I notice that placing stuff was no longer showing XP gains. I assumed I'd hit some sort of soft cap but then nothing was showing the gains. I looked at the perk he uses to add xp for that class and it seems fine, it's identical to vanilla perks that give an xp boost, and I don't think it's possible for a perk to turn off notifications anyway. Nothing in his mod looks like it would touch that actually. And when I started a new game with PP loaded it displayed xp gain and leveling up as normal, at least for the first couple levels. Don't know why it would quit after that. The only other thing I can think of now is experimenting with your load order.

In the meantime, there's a couple favorite mods I used earlier this year that I can't find again in either my Nexus downloads list or the spot on my spare HD where I stashed the downloads. One is like a variation on pipe guns, very modifiable but much nicer looking; the other is a set of NCR Ranger looking riot armor under a brown coat, with a thigh-length variant and a waist-length variant. Those sound familiar to anyone?

Anyone have experience texture editing and can clear this up for me? I've been using NVidia's plugin for Photoshop for ages but only with Fallout have I encountered an issue loading some textures from mods I've downloaded. Some of them appear all black, or mostly black with some weird repeating artefacts all over them. Intel now has a .dds plugin and the ones that don't load properly with NVidia's do appear fine using Intel's, but the advice I've read says to mainly only use Intel's plugin for normal and spec maps and not diffuse. I'm also not as familiar with the particulars of Intel's plugin, the save settings and so on, and can't find any good guides for it.
