Bulkiest Toaster posted:Well hopefully the map ends up being detailed with lots of cool environmental storytelling because I guess we aren’t going to get story or quests. Thermonuclear take: This is actually Bethesda acknowledging the one thing they have always excelled at, in spite of themselves. There will be no terrible voice acting, as voice acting will be limited to a foley artist huffing helium and gargling Mountain Dew to simulate a rapidly deflating acid mole rat. There will be no terrible writing excepting the LP chronicling goon endeavors to build a giant wooden phallus that towers over the rolling hills of West Virginia. Surrounding it, a band of Jet-addled, leather daddy styled raiders exploiting emotes to gesture lewdly as the feral ghouls descend.

Donovan Trip posted:That isn't how engines work my doot. Call of duty is still basically a heavily edited quake engine. Gamebryo is used across the industry- I believe everything from civilization to gta use it. Modders had to implement cars through invisible explosions in Fallout and it was janky as hell. (See also: Monorail hat.) I'm fairly certain it's not used for GTA. Civilization is right, though.

Todd wants people to break the game? The one thing you can count on is Bethesda games breaking themselves without player input. The latest example I stumbled upon was the Workshop menu in Fallout 4. You know how it lags for a few seconds when you press the key? And it gets worse the more settlement mods you pile on? That's because every time you press that key, the game checks every single item record to see if it can be placed in your settlement, even the ones that wouldn't make sense. It does so all over again for each submenu and doesn't cache the results. A modder fixed it last week.

marshmallow creep posted:I believe that is this one. Yeah, this was what I was talking about : quote:It boils down to the game using some incredibly inefficient code to figure out what objects you can build in workshop mode. Whenever you start Workshop mode, the game evaluates the conditions on every single constructible object in the game to find out if they belong in the workshop - this includes even non-workshop items like weapon mods and chems. And it does that not just once (!), but repeats this loop for each and every workshop submenu you have!

Tei posted:Like that example a few pages ago (menus checked for buildiables). Is unoptimized yes, but work ok for the stock game. It somewhat break with mods, but the shipped game was fine. Not really. There's also the massive slowdowns around Boston as the game is needlessly rendering a ton of poo poo you can't even see. Also had to be fixed by a modder. I'll give them that it's their most stable game to date, but that isn't really saying much, and it's evened out by breaking a lot of mods every time they add a new paid mod to the in-game store, some of which need their own unofficial third-party patches. Their QA managed to let an FNV release bug slip through that deleted your cloud savegames.

NofrikinfuN posted:I usually just get by with the pip-boy light, though that will make it impossible to sneak and tends to completely wash out the lighting in some areas. I always change the RGB on my pip boy to pure white so it doesn't make everything green when I use it. It's too bright outside generally is my problem. I do have Experience installed, though, so I'll give that a try.

NofrikinfuN posted:Start learning to manage your stash and carry weight early on, because it will add up quicker than you're expecting early on and you don't have the benefit of unlimited containers. Myself personally, i create bulk for everything over 100 units of the bulkable crafting materials and save around 200 of each material you can't bulk. When I accumulate 10 bulk of materials I start vendoring them. I'm also a bit of an extreme case because I pick up literally every weapon dropped and scrap them with the scrapper perk. If you want to follow this path, start learning where to find crafting tables so you can break things down to component junk. Also, the Pack Rat perk is worth a ton of carry weight if you play this way. Thanks. I was already doing some of this when I realized I needed to scrap a lot to get my Sims on. Thankfully there seem to be a lot of crafting tables around, so I can extend my trips by breaking poo poo down every once in a while. How do I make more caps aside from questing and selling drugs? Anything to not do in general?

Thanks for all the advice. How do I actually use treasure maps? I found one, a picture of some bridge, but no indication where to look. Or did I already find it without paying attention and can safely trash the note?

CRUSTY MINGE posted:As far as I know, modding is limited to what they provide with Fallout 1st, the $13/mo~ subscription service. You would need to find an unofficial server since 76 is online, unlike 4. Even then, you're limited to modding on the private server they provide for 1st, which would limit you to inviting like 3 or 7 people to join you on the server, you wouldn't be able to use the mods on a public one. Not even sound mods? So basically anything that requires a .ba2 archive is out, I guess? gently caress subscribing.

Why on earth is there a caps limit? That's dumb. And to the guy who dumped a bunch of legendaries, The Fixer and 2,000 .45 at my feet when I checked out his camp. If I'd been using a mic I'd totally have refrained from commenting on the waifu with the bomb collar. Sensenmann posted:Try putting this in your Fallout76Custom.ini (if you don't have one, just make it.) I actually found that same post in the meantime I think, but thanks, it helped some.

drat, I think I got at least one of those before and saw a Raven tossed on the ground yesterday, which I stupidly didn't pick up. Didn't know there were different rarities. Can I lock myself out of story stuff across the questlines, and If so, which missions are the cut-off points?

Went shopping for plans and was invited into some random whale's enormous house and nested shelters that he had, I would soon discover, meticulously crafted into a mannequin whorehouse and sex dungeon, complete with a chalkboard price list, a TV helpfully labelled "PORN" and countless rooms with scenes like this: I cannot imagine how many hours and how much money he must have put into this, the place was absolutely huge and he seemingly owned every piece of furniture ever released. I first began questioning my choices when I was led into a basement club and a sign said "ADULT XXX". We descended through multiple stories of increasingly demented wank fodder as he kept doing the point and laugh emote. My journey ended at something he'd labelled "SUCK FLY", a wall-mounted bloatfly head, upon which I demonstratively bolted for the exit. I was simply aghast at how much effort this person put into arranging his fuckdolls, I wish I'd taken more screenshots. SplitSoul fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Mar 1, 2023 |
