anyone wanna jump on this lend a hand?

anyone wanna make a mod to make compainions (vanilla and modded) stop taking food a person drops for deco in thier home? im not one of these have every item in tha flippin game on display type people.....however...when i find something there is only 1 or 2 of....mainly stuff from peoples mods (for example the food items in DC interiors that there is not many of)....i like to drop in tha house to have around.....now i know stolen items they wont take...but stuff from peoples mods normaly isnt marked as stolen.....i know i know put a copy of the item in thier invintory....well thats not 100% and a chore that takes away fun everytime you find some new food item and checking to make sure...not to mention it will vanish from thier invintory and later they will take more so when it comes to items there is very few of its a not work so good kinda deal....i know i know realistic....sorry video game not real life or work...i dont want real i want fake...i play video games for my entertainment time to get away from work and real lol :D (frankly kids that realism excuse i think is being used to often for stuff that dont fit lmao) anyway....anyone wanna hook a angel up? :D (angel wha tha? lmao!!! not what i said and what i said i didnt think was that bad.....so censorship onna forums for a foul mouthed offensive video game....ya that makes alot of sense lol)

why cant tha fat guy just be some smarter than the others around him? (or atleast thinks he is or is for that situation of people) like...i sit here on my butt and get fat and you go get me stuff and take care of me my minions!!! (insert some kinda logic here for how he can control them...i.e. huge rediculous stash of caps he found and only he knows where it is or something) i think to much gets called unrealistic based on a person just cant imagine a reason....i.e. i cant think of why and im the center of all things so there must be no reason cause if there was a reason surely i would think if it!!!!! lol :biggrin: :blink: :thumbsup: :rolleyes:

oh ya and beer bottles or whatever other drinks....bonk people with them or smash and ta da pointy and sharp poke poke stab stab....oh ya and like the throwing carrot i saw...maby throw your out of ammo weapons too....and other melee weapons throwable....i use a mod that already adds a bunch of new melee weapons from bonesaws and wrenches all the way to music stands and mail boxes......and i have a diff mod that its like this one gun....and its normal but when you equip it it pops a a menu and you can choose laser sight or stocked ect.....was think with this option maby could turn weapons out of ammo into melee or throws lol use a 32 by the barrel like a wrench or a double barrel hold by tha barrels like a baseball bat ect :D BONK!!! stupid hillbilliy!!! die!!! rofl :P :D or or like...crap im outa ammo and stuck hidding behind this counter....hope the enclave guy there dont find me....damn he wont leave...cant stay here for ever....pop up and bean him with tha 44 you was holding and run!!!! lmao :D oh wow you could target thier weapons and attempt to knock them outa thier hands and go for grabbin thiers or punchin them in tha face or switch to a melee or whatever lol

not sure what ya mean by an animator? i have seen a couple mods where they have just about everything as a melee weapon...mailboxes ect...so i would think maby a gun could be added....and a script to switch when ammo runs out....cause i seen people with gunswitch mods....like you equip tha gun and get a choice of scoped silenced ect..and its just selecting tha gun from several pre made models of guns....just would think need to change tha script to switch on run outa ammo or something....no idea just guessing based on what i have seen lol

thanks grandson of sam very helpful info...and MMM last and no need for umpa esp awesome...very helpful :) and on FO3edit....funny people keep saying...like its a fix all....like the response i see to a huge ammount of issues....run FO3edit masterupdate...and i agree about the description on what it says it does and how to use it (gonna stop before i go on about people and thier "fix alls" and thier additudes when ya question them lol) anyway thanks for the helpful info and pacients :)

a really fun mod would be something i find funny i have seen in movies or life or whatever.....no idea if its been done or suggested to be a mod yet... a person runs outa ammo and procedes to beat some one with the weapon i think this would prolly fit FO3 pretty well plus i would just love to bash some radier or hillbilly or aliens head in when i run out ammo lol also for the realistic-ism people it seems it would make sense....plus a choice to maby throw the weapon at them too :D

this i didnt know and is a helpful peice of info good to know now thanks :)

ok first if you dont know what the invalidator is and dont use it....you prolly wanna look into it....its is needed to make some things work right at all when useing mods its like a need not an option....but anyway... ok so your pic shows it should all be gold....but in 1st person view your seeing non gold parts like the gold change didnt cover all of the gun in 1st person view? dont know anything much about modding textures besdies whats needed to just play other peoples mods...but here im am just trying to clear up what your meaning is ment to be all gold like shown on tha floor...but in 1st person view its not....right? and its not flickering its just not showing all parts in gold like you intend it to?

i dont know if this will help your problem...but on its own it is a problem i believe....you have esm's that are under esp's....pretty sure all esm's go above any esp's always as a rule...may not be related to the particlar problem your posting about....but im pretty sure it is a problem on its own

being i have evil wall of text gnomes infesting my fingers and force my typeing style upon me im adding second post for load order....

1. load order is different now...clean FOMM/FOSE/FO3edit/MasterUpdate/Merged patched/and checked and double checked for errors and conflits and cleaned out...i reinstalled to clear up the noob mess i made...however one issue i found people here said was nah no biggie....was and esp in FOMM has an extra warning "WARNING: This plugin has the file extension .esp, but its file header marks it as an esm!" well i finally noticed these should really go (i think) after normal esm's....the reason i think this is thier index didnt change or was off....i.e modA esp show an index # of 14 but its way way down beween 45 and 46 like 45 14 46...and that cant be right being dont they auto change thier index when your move them around in load order? well these did change to make sense when i moved them after normal esm's and before esp's (this is all guess work based on the only logic i could put together mostly on my own being no one had any input on it that i could see or find) but it worked 2. nope 3. yes it is GoTY wich is 1.7 i make sure i check the official web site and here...and from what i see and gather GoTY is 1.7 4. drivers all up to date 5. tha bonus....i had a friend here help me out and things seem to be ok now after cleaning up my noob mess i made.....that would be getting mods and playing them....not likeing them or finding out they conflicted with something or finding out they was a mess and not made well and only taking out the esp and info i saw but not really paying attention to all the extra stuff an esp needs they gets crammed into mesh folders texture folders weapons folders ect...pretty sure you know what i mean...lol i made a noob mess like i said...main reason for making that mess was i didnt catch on to the idea of downloading mods and keeping them seperate....like dont just drop them in and play....good idea have saved a copy...then when i want to remove a mod...i can refer to the copy stuffed some place else and see everything i need to take it out 7. extra scene from the special edition DVD version....i could be totally wrong hince the way i explain all this....i guesing from what i can gather...i think some peoples idea of a noob sometimes gives a new person to much credit....some of us are i guess worse than noodish....i dont think everyone goes in the only two catagorys of lazy and not....some people dont get it and DO read EVERYTHING but for some people who are just wanting to have some fun playing a game when not busy with the rest of life....well we are worse than noob and just dont get it....or you can say there is more than two types of people in tha world :) sometimes i think calling someone lazy is the excuse for them being lazy and not wanting to put forth the effort to someone who is still trying but is just dumb about computers...but i understand i have been there and seen the mass of kids screaming and crying now now now why why shash pc rawr!! LMAO :P :D

hey adrian is right....and by your comment "i deleted my FO3 folder" kinda tells me you just deleted it and not uninstalled it.....there is a difference....exmaple.. i delete my folder....thinking being i couldnt find an uninstall that must make tha game go away...but it doesnt...there is mass info left in resgistrys on your pc i reinstall the game thinking it was gone....but all i do in replace the main game info and wow all my mods and stuff are right back where they was before......its all gotta go or your just resetting it and wasteing your time....and being the developers thought it was some kinda good idea not to include a way to uninstall FO3....your gonna have to find a way/program to FULLY CLEAN YOU SYSTEM OF ALL OF FALLOUT3 INFO and deleteing tha folder IS NOT THE WAY google it and see the many things that come up about how people had problems uninstalling this game and hopefully you can find a way to uninstall yes your gonna have ta get your mods back all redownloaded and what not now remember this is based on your comment and the way you said it....you might mean you uninstalled compltely and just said it that way....but generaly "i deleted it all i know cause i delted tha folder" means a person thinks just deleting tha folder works not realizing many bits of info stay behind and will not really be uninstalled hope this helps and special note caps for me isnt yelling just a strong point on that part

nope

well i didnt understand the intructions to Fo3edit and i wouldnt say they are noob friendly...im not anything close to lazy...you may do this kinda stuff on a regular basis or something and thinks its all good and easy.....but i was just pointing out someone might have to do more work to get this going than just flip though the so called nood instructions to things.....i.e. saying dont be lazy do more research have more pacients its not gonna be lickity split... thought there is also alot of other points to be made about how a person isnt lazy just cause they dont understand something you do......i understand where your comming from....there are alot of moaning and groaning impacient people out there funstrated and fed up and are being lazy........but your definition of that doesnt fit to everyone....there are more types of people than lazy people and people who get it well over 6 billion people on tha planet now and there are many variations of understanding some video game mod instructions sometimes people have to calculate other things in life into how much effort they wanna put into just getting a game to work.....crying kids....gotta go to work...the neighbor needs a beating cause thier dog wont shut up in tha middle of the night.......oops...anyway lol ok also its easy oki doki....could ya pop by my other post and give me a hand? lmao not being a smart ass no matter how you decide how to read that :P lmao i.e. trying to not be lazy and ask for help cause im lost
