Strange to hear a WD black series went bad usually they last a long time. Almost all the SSD on the market have about the same performance except those M2 drives or anything else that fits directly into a slot on the motherboard since those are faster interface than SATA. You need separate drive for OS and gaming and storage. Stuff your files in a big storage drive but try not to get anything bigger than 1tb if you want it to last a long time. I have noticed anything bigger than that tends to die faster which is probably due to increased complexity among other things. The ideal SSD for the gaming drive would be 480gb or 500gb do they make that size? and the OS drive can be 256gb or some of them say 240gb same thing. SSD drive works better when there is more free space on it even after installing everything. Your apps could be on the gaming drive too instead of the OS drive so it would only be windows on that OS drive nothing else. The OS drive could be the M2 thing or other direct access drives and if you can find it same thing for the gaming drive but those things are really expensive.

Google is super easy to use for finding things like MF mod I can't believe people can't find it.

I always thought that diamond city security guard danny sullivan had something going on with crazy myrna the merchant in diamond city because when you find piper for the first time she says something about letting crazy myrna miss out on all the supply and he replies with no need to make it personal then opens the door. Whats so personal then? Sounds like he doesn't like it when someone calls myrna crazy but why would he unless they had something going on or were married?
-
That looks like a mix of the old banned version of the MF mod and the new MF mod without the banned content.

I use scrap everything mod to scrap the whole house then use console commands to disable the door and a few other things that can't be scrapped don't forget to use markfordelete command too after disable for each item. Then I disable all the nearby trees and crap that block turret fire and also to cut down on poly count in the area so my fps will be better then 10 fps when I go there. Too bad we can't change the music after taking over the settlement so no more creepy battle music but instead that boring settlement music and if we could get that companion thinks this place is creepy comments to disable as well after taking the settlement.
Croup manor is not the worst problem in this game no, the worst problem is you build all of the slog up just how you want it and just when you place the last light source it doesn't work so you scrap it and try again to place that laaaaaaast light and BOOM! CTD just like that and no you didn't save before it happened. I f*#@ing hate that bug I don't want to play this game for a whole day now just because of this dam bug I'm not building all that s#*! again lol. I really hope all the bugs get worked out of the settlement transfer mod so by the time I finish my playthrough I can just go and save all the settlements to blueprints before trying another playthrough later. I'm so tired of building this s#*! again and again and again.

I went looking for official message boards for this game but can't find any seems they only want to use boring social media crap for communication. Anyone know a place where the devs post at all? Do they post in here?
My ideas...
Some ships like haulers seem big enough they could carry one exocraft inside them so why not have an option to convert x amount of storage spaces in a hauler to one big space for an exocraft to be stored? The exocraft would automatically be stored in the ship when the player enters the ship so it just goes poof after getting in the cockpit and when the player presses E a prompt will come up asking exit vehicle or use exocraft and they have to pick each time except after landing on stations or platforms that will always default to just exiting the vehicle as usual.
When the player has built their base and built more than one landing pad and built the trading terminal they can somehow sell their old ships so if the old ship has a fueled jumpdrive it could be told to go home after the player takes possession of another craft. So that old ship would wait there at the player base taking up one landing pad slot until the player switched to it or sold it.
Exocraft need to be able to boost vertically, I really hate getting stuck in those caves which seem to be exocraft traps they don't have an incline to drive back out of just a dam hole to fall in I hate those.
Mining laser is hard to aim on the exocraft they shoot the ground if the view angle is too high making it hard to mine really tall resources.
Really wish we had a third person view instead of being stuck in first person all the time.

I can't believe they don't have walmarts in this game I had to go four jumps away from the starter planet to find a robot so it could tell me how to make a nine volt battery. This is so ridiculous and makes me wish they played more fallout 4 while making this game.

I lost the first ship I started out with the fighter ship. I lost it when I unlocked the coordinates to a crashed ship and claimed the crashed ship. I spent a lot of time trying to move the crashed ship near my fighter. I found this crashed ship near a gek trading base with a landing pad. I finally managed to dock both ships at the same landing pad they were clipping through each other and after wandering around hoovering up resources and finding things I came back to find only the crashed ship docked there and the fighter gone as if one of those little stinky geks took it. So now I have unlocked the location of yet another crashed ship and I know what will happen if I head over there and claim it. I have the latest version of the game pathfinder edition which has base building too. I am guessing I have to build my own base and build a landing pad for it then dock it there to keep my ships from going away? I am still on the first planet I started on and I didn't pick up that atlas thing I can't even remember where the hell it is now do I need that? I have seen videos of people docking their ships in their own freighters in space so I know it is possible to keep more than one ship but it can't be so bad that it only works there and not on planet too right?
-
The bug is because someone will have to make custom animations for power armor too and since nobody has an animation rig for power armor or so they claim we just don't have a solution to that problem yet. Check out the magnum revolver rifle mod there is some info posted there about it since that mod has the bug too.
-
I have both versions of that mod and just mixed them together they are for skyrim and the author has hidden them away for whatever reason. We actually have some samurai armor in nuka world but it has a bunch of garbage stuck onto it and it doesn't cover much of the body. Nuka world is like mothership zeta and some other stuff stuck together so they wouldn't have to make those dlc separately even though it would have made them more money seems strange. All someone has to do is clean up the nuka world samurai armor maybe add some stuff to it and done no need to port some hidden mod content into the game.
-
Well that back to the future getup doesn't stop bullets and sometimes those nutjobs have real guns thanks to mods that change leveled lists.
-
There was a mod for cleaning up nuka world if you took out the raiders but it is old now and it had bugs plus the author just doesn't comment there anymore. Nuka world is kind of a letdown since after you get some rewards there it just gets really boring. Enemy spawns happen over and over again for no reason even if you wipe out all the gangs and the map is too small. Maybe if nuka world could be inhabited by main game factions it would be more interesting or if there was more story after doing everything there.

I know right? What I noticed when the game first came out was how the guards behaved at finch farm settlement. I had them all set up with walls and posts and turrets too. One really bored super mutant wandered over from the nearby satellite array and took some cheap shots at a guard so they all ran out of the settlement to slay him. They got him then the other really bored super mutants took notice and attacked so all those guards and settlers by this time lined up along that stone wall before the water near the array and used it as cover while shooting in vein at the super mutants. They could figure out how to do trench style cover but not stay at their positions in the settlement. I would think during an attack one npc like a named npc that lived there originally would run to any gates and close them somehow locking them too and all the guards would stay at their posts while firing at any threats.
Something I just thought of but never tested I wonder if they run towards threats because their weapons have too short a range? Something to try is give your settlers very long range weapons from mods like the modern firearms mod which has some insane ranges like 500 or 600 range on some rifles and add max scope options to them too so super accurate and see if they stay at their posts.
-
Thanks to the C4 mod and the chinese stealth suit mod together there is no longer any reason to spare any of the gangs when you can plant C4 on each and every one of them and blow them all up with one button. Just don't blow up anyone near the slaves, someone has to clean the park after you are done exploding raiders.

Get the better power armor mod that makes you totally immune to radiation and bullets until one or more pieces of your power armor are destroyed.
-
Oh good grief here we go...
BoS totally badass you get guns lots of guns BIG guns and power armor hell yeah! Get a bunch of big dam gun mods from nexus and kick some butts in the commonwealth. There is a mod that lets you spare the railroad through dialogue with capt kells. I get through danse mission at the police station and run one op for that unibrow jerk guy then I get the mission from danse to find the missing patrol and do that taking preston along with me but I sometimes go to diamond city first before reporting back to unibrow so I don't start the patrol quest yet. Get to diamond city hear some unique dialogue between preston and other npcs send sheffield to work in sanctuary buy some guns find out where valentine is yadda yadda. Eventually I leave diamond city go build abernathy farm with preston and then go report to unibrow find the lost patrol and finish that up then drop preston off at sanctuary after reporting in to danse. What I HAVE to do it seems is finish cabot house quests BEFORE BoS shows up after killing kellogg because there is a bug for me where if I put that quest off until after they arrive I lose emogene during her quest and it bugs out. I usually pick up macreepy and do that quest then get his creepy remarks and his personal quest go to medtek collect the westek tactical optics blueprints from that mod while I'm there if I didn't get them already during lost patrol quest. Finally wear macreepy out and get his really creepy dialogue out of the way and leave him at county crossing where I end up dumping cait too since they seem to be the same kind of person they deserve each other.
What I usually do is join the railroad before going to kill kellogg and get some of their missions out of the way then score the ballistic weave so I can crank up my armor with AWKCR and armorsmith extended mods. I just go far enough to get the weave and if I haven't finished deacons liberal allegory PSA dialogue yet and got his perk I put that off til later when I come back from far harbor with marine armor and a quad barrel rocket launcher.
You can be in all these factions just use that mod that I mentioned earlier it is on nexus something about sparing railroad from BoS but after destroying the badly written institute don't go back to the castle or the railroad since they will want you to blow up the BoS. You have to find danse and convince him to live somewhere on a settlement maybe send him to far harbor since the BoS is not there depending on what you did there. I play a character that gets along with almost everyone since the real threats are super mutants ferals raiders and enemy synth patrols with all factions shooting at those npcs together the commonwealth should clear up in a few decades.
The institute is so badly written it doesn't even make sense why would these scientists be too stupid to talk to people on the surface? They really have to send synth patrols to do their work? They really have to replace people instead of just ask them gee... why does your crops grow so guuud on top of a pile of dookie? I mean seriously just so badly written. Some elementary school kids could have written a better story about them and they didn't have to kill the player spouse in the beginning either they could have taken her too and she could have been told the other character was dead so she lived out her life with the kid and died of natural causes. The whole institute story could have been much better and we didn't need to identify or have sympathy for kellogg either screw that guy and his bad writing. Someone shoots my spouse (assuming I had one lol) they are dead no matter what I would not hesitate to end them no matter what the consequences and that is just human nature anyone would think that way.

Large numbers of npcs can slow down the game because it is cpu intensive which is why settlements are so small just build something up and add over 30 settlers to it and keep building until your pc hits single digit fps. I think there was a sanctuary modder that posted this crazy pic of his sanctuary which he never left in the game just kept building it for months and his pc can barely run the game now. I would hate to see what any updates have done to his game lol. Until beth can fix their code so it ain't so sloppy and so cpu intensive we will have limits like this.
-
I have this idea but I am thinking it might end up in a future fallout game if they would develop the BoS more instead of making them a political allegory all the dam time. Maybe the BoS gets BIG and has large mobile settlements that look like those experimental tanks from supreme commander forged alliance game they drive these all over the place and when they park it becomes a settlement for a while with built in defenses that can hold off anything from radroaches to deathclaws. Also the player might be able to actually fly a dam vertibird and land it wherever they want with auto landing options for these mobile settlements. Would be cool to have a quest or mission where the player has to deploy one of these things somewhere and fly some missions for it in a vertibird maybe man one of the anti personnel guns during an attack too.
-
I F'n wish lol. I have been asking this over and over for a year now. The closest thing we have is transfer settlements mod but it still has lots of bugs and you still have to build the settlement at least once before you can save it for replay later. I had an idea where all you had to do was bring x amount of resources to the workbench and dump them in then get a quest marker to build a radio signal at a specific point and a small generator to keep it going then come back in 24 game hours and the whole settlement would be build by some settlers that showed up to build it while you were gone.
-
This reminds me of something it was the first time preston sent me to sunshine tidings co-op I thought oh great I have to go co-op mode to finish this mission WTF? and then expected to see some message about stand by while some random internet player was found to co-op with me lol.

It really depends on what mods you are using and have you tried starting a new game totally vanilla no mods? Also if you are overclocking your computer that might be an issue. If you can't get a totally vanilla game to work right and you are not overclocking then it has to be wrong settings in bios maybe you are overclocking and just don't know it or you have a hardware or software problem. Don't forget virus and spyware those things are everywhere these days. Windows 8 really sucks it could be a driver issue with it and it could also be a notorious windows update doing it too since microsoft likes to screw up everything many times a year now.

There sure is something wrong with that toilet paper!
They just went and used plain ol toilet paper instead of that stuff marketing wanted to go with like space balls 2 the movie toilet paper the quest for more money or it just works TM the quest to piss off everyone toilet paper featuring the face of todd howard on every square guaranteed.

I was looking around in the mesh files for marine armor trying to figure out how to fix the missing left arm elbow and noticed that the female version actually has the elbow showing just not the male version. To fix this someone would have to chop the elbow pad out from the arm mesh and make it a separate piece then name it the same way it is named in the female version and it should work. Has anyone done this yet? We are so close to finally having the armor fixed completely thanks to the mod that fixes the feet and the other mod that adds a neck cover and messing around with the bone data can fix the messed up chest piece now all we need is this elbow and a headlamp for the helmet armorsmith extended mod handles the recon and targeting hud needs.
I don't understand why they left the elbow out for the male mesh its not like beth couldn't make it look right to begin with since beth created it.
-
The more important thing is how to remove the actual mesh in cells because the mesh is still being rendered even if the texture isn't. Until the CK comes out of beta lol they never finish the CK then we will have errors in cells trying to remove all that stuff. Mods like scrap everything can help but it requires the player to do it manually in game scrapping everything. What would be better is link all that stuff to an xmarker that is tied to a quest to clean up habitable places so the player can somehow convince the slobs living somewhere to actually clean up their location. Maybe later on in the year when beth is really finished messing with the game we might get a CK update who knows except them otherwise we have to wait for the xedit team to figure things out to a point where errors caused by the CK can be fixed after saving in CK.

Didn't know about the robot thing but it makes sense to be seen as a bigger threat. Maybe this has something to do with preventing companion aggro in some situations. During the quest confidence man I always have to take away my companions weapons if they have any because if I don't they just shoot those two bullies instead of fighting with them. When they don't have weapons they just stand there and watch me fight them.
