Hi, I'm working on a quest where the questgiver remains "hidden" behind the same type of door as Bobbi No-Nose in the base game. The quest is introduced through a holotape. Reading it starts a MiscQuest to investigate his location. Upon entering, the NPC is supposed to spawn behind said door, initiating dialogue with the player and starting the quest. Everything works, except that my NPC insists upon spawning right under the player's nose every time I enter his spawn trigger zone, even though I specifically gave him an AI package to stay behind the door and peek through after spawning in. Any idea how to prevent this? Greetings, MrNeedles

Insta shutdown on start menu / load-up
MrNeedles replied to MrNeedles's topic in Fallout 4's Discussion
@SKK50: Yes, in retrospect that seems the better way. I was honestly just afraid of messing around in FO4Edit due to lack of experience with that program, and figured since I fondle around a lot with LL's for my own mods a few smaller changes wouldn't cause such a ruckus. Guess I figured wrong :thumbsup: @1ae0bfb8: ...okay, you got me there. -
Hi! I've been playing around with SKK's Fallout 4-76 mod recently. However, after editing the mod slightly (by adding Synthetic Zombies from the mod of the same name to his Synth spawn LL's), my game shuts itself down immediately on either the start menu or when clicking to load a new save. However, I am not sure if the issue has directly to do with me meddling around with one of the two mods, or might be caused otherwise. I would be thankful to anyone who might've had a similiar problem in the past if they'd be willing to help me out on this or nudge me into the right direction. Cheers!

Thanks for the idea, I've only ever red reddit, never made an account myself. I'll try it out :mellow:

And you wouldn't happen to know someone from around here who might be up for the task?

Bosch is actually from Bremen, but close enough :thumbsup: German with a hint of British might be an interesting combination. The character's actually supposed to not sound "too" german, since he's been around the Commonwealth for quite some time. Would you like to give it a try?

My voice entirely broke for a few minutes when trying to grovel. I can grunt, but talking that way destroys my ability to speak within half a sentence.

List of Recommended Custom Companion Mods

Hi, I'm currently working on a small questline expansion for my mod Sim Settlements Conqueror - Institute Surface Recon Agents. The quests will introduce the faction in a more organic way, providing background info and (hopefully) tying into the Institute Main Quest as seamlessly as possible. In order to accomplish this, it'll feature the character of Bosch, a migrant german ghoul who will serve as the main quest giver. Bosch is a calm fellow, a bit rough around the edges, with a sly and dry kind of humor. He likes moonshine, his Gauss rifle, and people who don't ask too many questions. Since he's german I'd also like to point out that I'm not looking for a Hans-Landa-type of character voice. Bosch neither judges a person by their race, creed or color, only by how much valuable tech he gets paid to pull out of their brain-pan. Initially, I tried voicing the man myself, but being a chain-smoker didn't really help and so I hope to find a talented and eager person with a german accent here who might be willing to pitch in and lend some lines :smile: Anyone interested, please PM me and I'll send you some test lines to read!

Allow me to promote my own stuff here: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/38210 Requires Conqueror - It's a great mod anyway to try out for playing with any faction, though!

Noob Question (?) - Game freezes on Pip-Boy screen
MrNeedles replied to MrNeedles's topic in Fallout 3's Mod Troubleshooting
I know where the system information is located, that's where I found the specs I posted before - They're literally copypasted from there, since I wouldn't know any of these by myself. My process of buying this laptop was basically me walking up to the guy at the media store, politely harassing him until he looked up which of his affordable gaming laptops was able to run Fallout 4. I am, as is probably very visible in this post, a hopeless case when it comes to understanding technical information... I bougtht the game five or six years ago in a german media store called Saturn. It says "games for Windows Live" right on the box, and whenever I installed it somewhere before, GFWL used to pop up when loading the game. Maybe because it's an old version...? No clue. Yeah, as I said, I was basically googling around like an idiot for any possible solution to make the game Windows 10 - compatible. I just saw a post on what I think was the Steam forums, where someone explained you had to change the .ini and also add a line. Tried it and it worked, in conjunction with that GFWL disabler I downloaded if I remember correctly. I backed up the original .ini, though. And yes, I figured it was all because I replaced that bloodpack with a different model/texture, so I tried changing it for another one. Unfortunately, the issue persists. Since I did not just edit in a new item, but instead replaced all blood packs in the game, that leaves me either with the option of manually removing all of them in the GECK, or somehow restoring the original model/texture... I think. So far no clue though how I would go about this, since it does not automatically reset to default when deleting the new one, and the original version is hidden/inaccessible to me. -
Noob Question (?) - Game freezes on Pip-Boy screen

Alright, trying to answer this to the best of my knowledge... Here goes... Technically, the mod wasn't untested. It's just that it was one of those things I used to fiddle around in my increasingly scarce free time, so I basically changed/added whatever I felt like doing at the time. I thoroughly tested each new script implemented (most being fairly easy, partially cannibalized from base game scripts, other mods, and peoples advise on the forums here), but I have no idea wether any of them might conflict with each other. The issue described tends to pop up randomly during a save. As I said, I'm now about 98% sure I narrowed it down to one object, a replaced model for the base-game bloodpack. Having it in my inventory crashes the game immediately whenever I go into the pip-boys 'Aid' section. That's the only common thing I found so far. Games for Windows Live came with the installation. I used an Installer to disable it, but I can't for the life of me find any trace of it in the game files, and since I basically tried to hastily fix the game to work on Windows 10, I have no idea what exactly I did there. So - I guess that means complete reinstall? *sigh* And I did make the game 4GB compatible with a mod from Nexus. I changed nothing in the .ini except what was necessary to enable mutliple master files for the GECK, and another thing I read up about making the game compatible with Windows 10, without actually knowing what it meant, because I speak script about as fluently as mandarin chinese... Come to think of it, this might have been the thing you meant, but I simply didn't realize what the use of that change was. I was also completely unaware of the fact that running a PC game on a laptop could cause problems. Furthermore, I had to google what a GPU was, and I still have no idea how to look up which one my Laptop is using... ... I feel like a caveman now. -

Right-o! So, system specs are as follows. PC is a LAPTOP-P6BMCRQK. Processor is an Intel Core i5-7300HQ CPU @ 2.50 GHz. 8,00 GB RAM on it, of which 7,89 are still useable. Processor is x64-based. Windows 10. Install path is D:/Data/Fallout3 (custom game folder on secondary drive). Game is GOTY version, bought in store (so, not the Steam Version). I am not sure how to look up the exact number. I'm using FOMM and the latest stable version of FOSE, since it helped me with getting the game started on Windows 10. That said, I also used some patches for that which I might look up if needed, but right now can't remember since it took some trial and error. No mods other than those I made myself. Right now, just the one I'm trying to continue with. Contains custom scripts, lots of Nexus resources, custom Voice types and an alternative start, so basically skipping the main quest. If needed, I can provide more detailed information. I hope that's enough to provide useful information. If I missed anything, please let me know! -

Okay, I think I got it some more useful info. Messed around a bit and realized the Pip-Boy would only crash if entering the Aid section. Moreso, I am pretty sure (although not 100%) that it only crashes if I have a specific aid item with a modded model/texture in it. Could that be possible? And if so, how would I go about fixing it? Tried changing to another model/texture already, but it still crashes the game. -
Disappointed in humanity? I feel you, mate. But instead of trying to change it, why not just .... *drumroll* .... redefine it? :thumbsup:
