HeyYou

In real life, you can look over your shoulder and shoot too..... :)

Thank you for your reply. I'm pretty sure the last mod in the load order wins. I'm just wondering whether ' winning' in this case means that the .ba2 archive Mod B completely overrides the .ba2 archive of Mod A being used, or just the single overlapping texture? anyone? :smile: I would expect that any overlap between the two archives, the one loaded last would win.

19 13 Better Locational Damage - DLC_WWorkshop.esp 27 1b Better Locational Damage - DLC_Far_Harbor.esp 28 1c Better Locational Damage - DLC_Automatron.esp 29 1d Better Locational Damage - DLC_Nuka_World.esp 30 1e BLD - AI Tweaks.esp And then we have..... 31 1f Better Locational Damage.esp Which all of the previous mods are likely dependent on. Loot seems to be confused.

Then we have the Flat Earth Society. Or maybe the folks that deny the moon landing.... Among others. Just because you can back your argument with facts, does not necessarily imply those that really want to believe, will change their mind...... Even today, we have folks building rockets to launch themselves, to prove the earth is flat.... Well, one less since last year......

Vortex will simply install both archive. The game will use textures from both, and when there is a conflict, I *think* the one loaded latest wins. Or, it might be the one with the newest date wins.....

Need to adjust your load order. You have files loading before their dependencies.

Check in your C:\users\whateveryourusernameis\app data\Skyrim folder as well. Any leftovers in there can bite you too. May not hurt to grab Revo Uninstaller Portable, and use that for your reinstall. It will also scan for any leftover files/registry entries that the standard uninstaller doesn't seem to get.

Obi Wan had an interesting take on just what "truth" was. :D

I highly doubt that is true. Finance Services is a highly regulated industry and there are stringent requirements around customer data including passwords. However if it is true then I'd move to a bank that treats your data with respect and secures it. I think you'd be surprised how many banking sites only let you use up to 8 chars in the password. Without even the possibility of using a longer one. It's kind of hard to find a workable banking option that also has proper levels of security, so very often we just take what we can get. Then go to a better bank that protects you and your assets I highly doubt that is true.

Without even the possibility of using a longer one. It's kind of hard to find a workable banking option that also has proper levels of security, so very often we just take what we can get. Eight character passwords are a holdover from legacy systems, like IBM mainframes. IBM mainframe had a MAX limit of eight character passwords for decades, and in as much as many banking systems are backed on IBM Mainframes, they use the IBM Mainframe password processors. Quite a few IBM mainframe customers have not converted to the PassPhrase technology which supports passwords/phrases up to 100 characters. This is incorrect. When you logon to your bank, you are not logging on to a mainframe. Go and read up on the latest (i.e. in the last decade at least) security requirements for mainframe systems. You're trying to conflate something from 20-odd years ago into the current day and age for some reason and it's embarassing to read, to be honest. Please enlighten me on how a longer password is any more secure. (Hint: Its not.)

You should post in the forum appropriate to the game you are modding.....

Usually, that kind of crash is a 'missing master crash'. I.E. one of the mods in your load order is missing a mod it is dependent on. Since you know exactly which mod causes the crash, do you have all the requirements for that mod installed?

Not that I have noticed. I can jump the same obstacles, regardless of how much I am carrying, even when over-encumbered, and I still die if I fall from any height, regardless of carry weight.

I highly doubt that is true. Finance Services is a highly regulated industry and there are stringent requirements around customer data including passwords. However if it is true then I'd move to a bank that treats your data with respect and secures it. Doubt what you want. My bank password requires only eight characters. There is an option for two-factor authentication, but, it is an OPTION. (same as it is here.) Longer passwords only make it more difficult to brute-force crack them. It does not make your account any more 'secure'.

You wanna post in the vortex support forums.

Yeah, I love my explosive shotgun. Using it at close range though, yeah, that's suicide. :) I learned that one the hard way. (wondered why I was dying so quickly.....) Only thing better I found, with mods... was my never ending, explosive, 10mm auto pistol. Wave it around, and everything down range dies. :D Does eat ammo though. :D

Yeah, I see your point. My bank doesn't even have that level of security. :D

The new format for Game forums is FAR superior to the long list we had previously. Makes finding the forum I want MUCH easier. Thanks Folks. :D

Thumb drives have gotten DIRT cheap of late. You can probably pick on up for under 30 bucks, that you can copy your entire Fallout 4 folder to. When you get your new machine, just install FO4 normally, then copy over your backup. You will need some variety of mod manager to enable all your mods again though. If you used Vortex, NMM, MO2, or something similar, it gets a LOT more complicated on convincing the manager to recognize your mods...... Or, if you still have the downloaded archives, back those up instead, and use your mod manager to reinstall them.

I second the motion. :D

What problems are you having? Unfortunately, it doesn't get any easier than STEP.... Of course, that's a rather involved process. Nothing like jumping in to the Deep End, eh? :)

Then that would imply you do NOT have permission... So, you can do it for your own game, but, no uploading it anywhere.

Problem is, in the game, YOU are the landlord. :) Would be nice to be able to delegate some authority to some other sucker to deal with settlement issues. :) Sim Settlements is a start, but, I haven't played with it. (I am just not that into settlement building.)

According to theory, max number of settlers is Charisma plus 10. I don't know if that also includes 'buffs' from various articles of clothing/armor though. 100 is way outta line though. That should be an indication that something in your game is indeed borked.

Clearly not if you were able to raise children with moms. Are you one of those gurus with the weird light around you that seems to mesmerise women to become members of your harem? How did you get around the polygamy laws - oh maybe that explains why one of your kids became a lawyer..... Not at the same time. Not a mormon.... (in fact, I don't follow any religion..... atheist? agnostic? Something like that.) I am 60 years old, so yeah, I've had time to have a couple wives.

Vanilla or mod added items in the settlements?
