Bye, Nexus.
-
All my helpful file download descriptions... POOF! Unless users specifically expand the download tabs for more info, you have people downloading the wrong files. Which will happen. A lot.
My last straw really; So long, Nexus. You were great while you lasted. I have no interest in adding content for a site that is so horrendously dysfunctional.
-
I honestly got a headache while looking over my mod pages to see how they'd been changed. Thinking of just deleting it all.
-
Approximately three months back (possibly longer), there was a popular mod with 'chrome' in its name. It fixed the random ugliness on some wet textures such as hanging slabs of meat.
I can't seem to locate it; does anyone know what happened? If it changed names?
-
Thank you! They work now!
Still bugged
Please can you try now ?

Still bugged

The below files are still not functioning. Do I need to reupload them?

It's a gamebryo ver17.0 bug - happens plenty in the base game as well (like outside the Prospector Saloon). I think it's due to cell borders; type TB in the console to confirm
-
If you wish to use your current methodology, you could try GeHealthPercentage. Not sure how your character is being "knocked out" so hard to offer up specific answers rather than general ideas such as possibly using GetUnconscious/SetUnconscious commands for greater control.

Maria doesn't have a scope.
So... analyze what mods you are using and make sure they are compatible with one another.
-
True Wasteland Economy, everything you could ever want and more, completely customizeable.

Ended up just directly editing the basespeed gamesetting... which might be bad... might not... we'll see. Still annoyed that fMoveEncumEffect doesn't seem to exist in Gamebryo Ver.17.2
-
What I often do is create separate patches via WryeFlash by tailoring Bash to only the two respective mods. I then rename the Bashed Patch esp and save it for later, eventually merging it using WryeFlash's merge feature if I ever need it again.
In your case, load the AWOP-Rebalance patch before NVR3, add the actor.stats tag to it, and import actor values. Voila, everything but AWOP [vanilla] stats will be in the patch because AWOP-NVR3 had a later load order.

Does the Gamesetting fMoveEncumEffect exist in New Vegas? I've tried testing it in the console to no avail - as well as in the following script... but it doesn't seemingly do anything.
Scn DakzEncumbranceScript Float fCurrentWeight Float fMaxWeight Float fEncumEffectDefault Float fEncumEffectNew Float fEncumRatioCurrent Float fRatioRatio int iDoOnce int iTemp Begin GameMode Set fCurrentWeight to (player.getAV InventoryWeight) Set fMaxWeight to (player.getAV CarryWeight) if fCurrentWeight > fMaxWeight ;avoid unecessary computations if iDoOnce != 1 Set fEncumEffectDefault to (GetNumericGameSetting fMoveEncumEffect) Set iDoOnce to 1 endif Set fEncumRatioCurrent to (fCurrentWeight / fMaxWeight) Set fRatioRatio to (fEncumRatioCurrent / fEncumRatioMaxGLOB) if fRatioRatio > 1.0 set fRatioRatio to 1.0 endif Set fEncumEffectNew to (fEncumEffectDefault * (1.0 - fRatioRatio)) SetNumericGameSetting fMoveEncumEffect fEncumEffectNew if iTemp == 0 player.modAV LeftMobilityCondition -1 set iTemp to 1 else player.modAV LeftMobilityCondition 1 set iTemp to 0 endif else Return endif End

Does the path in the mesh read as textures\etc\etc.... or as steam\steamapps\common\new vegas\etc\etc ??
-
Sometimes, miscellaneous objects won't change their position in a cell if you've previously loaded that cell and made a save.
-
When you have FPS concerns, alt-tab and check the windows "resource monitor"; if one of your CPU cores is 90-100%, it's the limiting factor. I mention this because errant scripts can cause some major lag in the game where you least expect it.
Notable examples:
* Meltdown Medley has a script on each piece of Flamer ammo that will bog your system down with large quantities of said ammo in your character inventory.
* MMUE+ used to enable [previously disabled] Great Khans in Redrock Canyon; their AI packages were putting a strain on the engine to the tune of -10fps.
In short, see if you get any better results through troubleshooting and disabling some mods ;) Also, I've personally had questionable results with the latest NV Stutter Remover(s) - I've stuck with 4.1.31.

Another vote for Melissa; I hate emo companions.

Seems it has something to do with the station not being in contact with dirt (ie, placed on wooden floorboards).
...Nope, needs maybe 4ft of clearance from homes.
-
I was relocating the chemistry station to be closer to the other crafting stations and now it won't function (goes into third person and hangs there a couple seconds before reverting to old perspective). Is this a known bug? Is there any way to get around it aside from either never moving it or pumping up charisma to get Local Leader and craft a new station?

Normally I would go to the forum page for Moto's Big Fat Quest Mod and search keywords such as cave and go through the results that pop up to see if someone has posted the solution to my dilemma. If they have, I find the result, go back into the game, hit the switch and go on to collect fat loot.
If I'm the first dummy to get stuck on that ledge, I go onto the mod comment page and post my troubles there hoping someone has the answer to reply to me. There are players who like helping people. Maybe they'll peek in and give me a hand.
Problem now is that Moto's Big Fat Quest Mod was a hugely popular mod six years ago and while it has 7,280 posts on the page, Moto hasn't been around in three years and the last 593 posts in the thread are all people with various issues related to incompatibilities with other mods, ctds due to missing required files and that one guy who thinks Moto's voice acting sucks and he should go do naughty things to himself. We hate that guy but I digress.
I spend the next hour and a half trudging through post after post, page after page, trying to find someone who's had the same issue. My eyes cross, words bleed together, I end up randomly clicking through pages hoping for the best. Never find what I'm looking for.
I post a help thread in Mod troubleshooting or Mod Talk but the game is eight years old and all the players are interested in the new shiny. My topic gets maybe eight views in a week. Nobody is coming, nobody cares.
Finally I decide Moto's mod sucks and I will uninstall it and never use any of his crap again! But Moto's mod doesn't suck, I had the answer to the puzzle in my inventory the whole time and a player actually posted this bit of info buried inside a thousand word essay on page 475 of the mod comments but I will never know this.

That's actually how it always worked and the file upload forums were always hidden to the general forum search functionality unless you were in that specific thread (for example, before these changes, if you searched for a term on the forums it would never find terms in threads in the file upload forums as they were specifically hidden from the search functionality).

Go here to this mod and search the topic for the word "punga". Punga is clearly written in four posts on the first page alone but the search comes up with nothing

As in, if it had continued, you'd have been looking at progressively worse load times (last weekend it was between 8 seconds - 30 seconds to load a page), that would have continued to get worse until the script timeout kicked in around about 45 seconds, at which point the forums would have been completely unbrowseable and there'd have been no more forums TO browse.
I'd appreciate a little less aggro in that regard.
As it is, among the complaints only one person from what I've seen has provided a very good, constructive piece of advice, notably:An alternative solution would be to add a "Last commented" filter to the Browse files section.
Yes, that should be possible.lmstearn wrote: All of a sudden the Traffic Snarls, Software is running to Limits and there are DDOS Issues, but WTGR for me there never was a problem.

It can't be true that there are forum threads open for mods that are 5 years old. Now, one example that came to my mind is Martigen's mod.
Why are people still able to post and download old versions of it in the nexus, and still make a comment? According to me makes no sense.

But it isn't only Martigen, it is a lot of mods.billko wrote: I hope you didn't have my posts in mind when you entered this response. I stated my observations and at least offered some alternatives as I thought about them. Granted I had no idea whether or not they would work, but I hate complaining about something without having some sort of solution in mind.
By simultaneously eliminating searchable comments and new posts in Uploaded Files, you've made the forum section useless for the majority of visitors - mod author and end user alike.
Looking for quest mods akin to those from Puce Moose (FO3/NV)
in Discussion
Posted · Edited by drithius
I was thinking of playing through this game a second time, if only to go through the DLC. For people familiar with his work, are there any quality quest mods comparable to those released for FO3/FNV by Puce Moose? https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/users/137055?tab=user+files
I'm seeking well-told stories, possibly involving puzzle-solving, and not necessarily much combat focus. And immersive to the point that they feel like part of the game's world and lore.
