[Saving the Brotherhood]

I just went ahead and did this on Sunday. I haven't posted the mod yet but I will do so soon.

 

Bear in mind it is kind of ghetto since I can't seem to get any of the VO sound files to work with replies. Also, I tried making BoS membership a requirement of the dialogue option, but apparently the value is still 0 even though I'm a member. Go figure.

 

I may set the option to require a speech check as well. I want to make some small improvements so that the thing actually SEEMS like a reasonable House response, but I really can't do that until I figure out how to use VO files in GECK.

 

So, in short:

 

1. I have made a mod that allows the player to spare the BoS in House Always Wins V

2. I want to improve it a little so it is still realistic and immersive (e.g., House probably won't be thrilled)

3. I really really want to know how to view, access, and use all of the VO files in GECK

Thanks for looking into it! I think a speech check would be appropriate, seeing as House really hates the Brotherhood; I think he'd need a deal of persuading that they can be useful.

 

Is the value you're using for Brotherhood membership different than the quests? Would it be possible/easier to set it to Eyesight to the Blind/Tend to Your Business being complete?

 

Wish I could help on the VO front, but I don't know anything about it; it's not something I messed with in either GECK.

[Questions regarding melee animations.]

Thank you for taking the time to read this first off. I just had a simple question. Is there any Fallout 3 or NV melee animation replacement mods of any kind? And is it possible to straight port oblivion animations to Fallout NV? Thank you for taking the time and read this. Hopefully I could hear a response from this awesome community soon!

 

Hi. I'm looking for melee animations as well (I want to make a melee spear with an appropriate animation).

 

Someone here on the forums posted this link recently:

 

http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=9396

 

I don't know if it's of any use to you, but the contents, including the animations, look very interesting. I'm going to download it and look into it some more myself.

 

If I find anything else, or learn more about converting animations, I'll let you know.

[Saving the Brotherhood]

I'm interested in this as well. I was all for siding with House (questionable ethics or no, he seems the most capable of looking after Vegas), right up until this point. Were it not for Veronica, I wouldn't care so much about destroying the Brotherhood.

 

It's true that there are still references in the quest to a diplomatic option that must have been removed prior to release. It has "(Optional) Inform Mr. House that you've negotiated a peaceful solution with the Brotherhood" as the objective and "Player has convinced House that the Brotherhood is valuable against the NCR" in quest stages. I'm having a look, but my modding experience is limited to minor tweaks only; I'm not sure I'm experienced enough to start messing with main quests.

[Modified Merc Veteran/Cruiser Armour]

Just putting out a request for a mesh for female merc veteran and cruiser armour that cuts down the jacket part, so it's more like a waistcoat (i.e. removes the tail part of the jacket from the legs). I've highlighted what I mean in the attached picture:

 

 

 

I've tried doing it myself but I'm pretty terrible at modelling I'm afraid. I'd be really grateful if someone could have a go at it. Or some advice on using Blender to do it, I guess. I keep inadvertently deleting big holes in the mesh...
