If you are talking about new Vegas, this post belongs in the mod suggestion. It does sound like a good idea, but the engine the game runs would probably make it a pain to create (so many invisible barriers)

Are you changing the settings before you start the game or in game, try lowering the settings and a combination of both

Issue number 1 is not a mod, it's a console command that opens up the players repair menu (srm=show repair menu). As for issue 2, I guess I'll install the geck, thanks for your response.

My brother says check your steam settings when you open up steam

You may have already tried this, and it may be a dumb response, but have you played with fades. When in game, press start, go to the display options and adjust the fades

Click on the file name(orange text). This should open a new window that may ask for your country. Choose your region and the download will began. I usually save my mods to my desktop, you may need winrar as well. Once downloaded, if you used wInrar, extract the files. If there's a read me, READ IT. Most mods should give instructions for their installation

I have two issues: 1. After using player.srm, I can repair objects in my pip-boy to 100% cnd regardless my repair skill, this is really game-breaking and it feels like cheating. How can I fix this? 2. I want to add a trait and remove one, but they are both traits from a mod so I don't know the ids of the traits. How do I look up the ids for the traits, possibly using Fallout Mod Manager and preferably not through the GECK.
