The Enclave Reborn Mod, which can be found here (http://www.moddb.com/mods/enclave-reborn-minman-total-overhaul/downloads) solved the Minutemen issue for me marvelously. I got tired of waiting for someone else to create a faction overhaul mod for The Railroad, so I made one myself! This is my first mod ever, but it is tested and working. This mod makes Desdomona, Glory, and some of the Railroad agents in the game spawn in full suits of X-01 Power Armor. As well as making Desdomona and Glory spawn with Gatling Lasers, and all X-01 Armored Railroad agents now spawn with Plasma weapons. Doesn't look like it.

pmchem posted:Arthmoor comes off as such a douche. He says "Only Bethesda can ultimately fix this, so IMO, people should start directing bug reports to them." Well, yeah, if he cared about the long term health of the game he would have been encouraging people to report every issue to the Bethesda feedback page and not just his private bug tracker. Always. But he totally disparaged it when I asked if he was reporting all the issues he "fixes" (he doesn't), and only when his unofficial patch is triggering an engine oddity does he ask people to contact bethsoft. Vanilla is unaffected. Actually, I... did see him report stuff? And say that he reported stuff? I doubt he reports every single thing his mod "fixes" (many of which are super inconsequential anyway, like capitalization errors), but the last time this came up, he was specifically directing people to how to report bugs and he had just reported a bug. I think it was the cell reset bug? I mean, far be it from me to defend Arthmoor, but this particular instance is kinda weird. Azhais posted:What does it even fix? I've got hundreds of hours in this game and I installed it for my last couple runs and can't say i noticed any changes. Every bug I hit previously that I was hoping it fixed still happened. Doesn't seem like a great loss, especially since his patch includes all sorts of "I just didn't like this" type changes iirc http://afkmods.iguanadons.net/Unofficial%20Fallout%204%20Patch%20Version%20History.html There are actually some things that I ran into and were fixed by the patch.

I would think that to be hired one would need, y'know, qualifications beyond "I changed this thing in your videogame" It's happened in Crusader Kings 2. pmchem posted:"As far as I can remember, there's never been a proper official channel to submit bug report" -- Arthmoor, after I pointed out and asked him if he used the bethesda.net submit feedback page. If he's changed his ways on this, I'd be happy and curious to read the post where he's instructing people in detail. Definitely, because I've recruited Doc Anderson/Rylee/Ron Staples and I kept getting pissed off when they vanished from my settlements. I magically got molerat disease even though Codsworth was the one who got bitten. I had Anne Hargraves/Sheffield/Rylee/Vault-Tec Rep always making me ask to hire them every time I tried to talk to them and that was annoying the poo poo out of me. I broke Phyllis Daily. I couldn't get to Bobbi's terminal. The Bobby/Tina quest bugged out on me and I couldn't end it. Only thing I looked up for that list was the names. And most of the problems I had WERE settlement-related, so it is kinda annoying to have this bug.

Smol posted:Why does everyone pretend like that bug is some conspiracy by Bethesda against modders? Report the bug to them and it'll get fixed, eventually. Or if not, someone in the community will reverse engineer the binaries and fix it that way. In this case? Because Arthmoor is a known paranoid lunatic. He went on some crazy thing about how goons were mod terrorists one time that was pretty hilarious. Sent it to Bethesda, if I'm not mistaken. His forum sig is something like "RIP United States of America - July 1776 - November 2012." So the answer is "He is not a well man."

Every area I find with pre-placed dead raiders every single one of them has a crossbow. I like having crossbows in the mix but this is starting to annoy me. Looking at the leveled lists, I'm not sure why they'd be more common than anything else. Maybe it's a low level thing? They start showing up at level 5, and the only other options at that level are pipe guns and double barrel shotguns. They're also in lists for "long" guns specifically. for raiders. I bet you could thin them out by either removing the edit to the normal raider weapons list or from the raider "long" guns. http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/8990/ And there is a bow mod.

Seashell Salesman posted:Agreed. It might be that people are using private (newer) builds of FO4Edit than the one on the Nexus. My one definitely shows "0" for everything and it's the same rev as the one on the Nexus page. It would be easy enough to just clone and build FO4Edit from https://github.com/TES5Edit/TES5Edit but it's Saturday and I wanna play games not watch build system spew. I loaded it up in the creation kit and it is identical to the other similar lists. I don't see any differences that would lead to this. All I can imagine is that -older- versions of Fo4Edit showed a different number because they were flawed. Perhaps you can just resave it in a current version and it would sort things out? It's hard to test changes like this, because you can never quite know when a leveled list has updated without waiting. Midnight Voyager fucked around with this message at 21:42 on Jul 18, 2016 |
