I am *ashamed* of you.

I am absolutely in favor of building clean and shiny stuff in settlements.

I am absolutely in favor of building clean and shiny stuff in settlements.

...but you don't go around scolding and disrespect people who create mods with old and worn looking items for settlements.

 

This is about the idiots that do, without a shred of knowledge how to do it themselves, they feel entitled to tell others what to do. (or just downtalk what others create)

[euph]

I'm also on "team clean". The way that Boston (and everything else) is completely filthy and people are one step away from living in caves, is completely irrational and senseless to me. People literally living in places full of skeletons and trash? No one has figured out how to make nails? Hammers? Do the people in the commonwealth suffer from collective amnesia so badly, that they don't even know how to tie some bush sticks to a long stick and make a broom? Or pick up one that survived the bombs and time?

 

I've seen mods to literally add more trash to a settlement, as if a fetid hole is a place where any sane person would want to live, but hey, "you do you" as they say. I suppose it would make sense if you have some super mutant settlement or something.

 

However, do I go there and call people names over it? No. I just block that mod so it doesn't appear on my searches and I move on. Tell your friend to mod what he likes, as he likes, when he likes, and to ignore/ban the idiots that come his way. If it gets too bad, disable the comments and leave the bug section up. It people abuse that, remove the bug section too. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

You're right about the skeletons and dirt and stuff, and in real life Diamond City would be a disease infested death trap even below dark age & the age of the plague standards.

...but seriously, its a game, and 'post-apocalyptic game environments' usually look better with dirt & clutter.

 

I've said it before, take out everything which is 'wrong' and there is no game left to play. NOTHING within the fallout world is based on any 'realism'. Nature doesn't die, water doesn't get irradiated (and the fallout doesn't take 200+ years to wash down the mountains into the sea), the FEV-virus is fantasy, Ghouls can never exist/survive, Scorpions are actually immune to rads, rad-storms are caused by ...? ...and on and on and on,

 

Frag 'realism'. I just want my stuff to look cool, dirty or clean.

Couldn't agree with this more if I tried. I remember people getting all garbagy because I made some gun when I first started modeling that I thought looked cool and called it an auto revolver. My god the gun nut realists came out of the woodworks to tell me how stupid it was and how it could never actually work and blah blah blah. If you don't like it, don't download the mod and don't be a d***. That kind of garbage is a lot of why I stepped away from modding for so long, and boy did I choose a turbulent time to jump back in. Haha.

An auto revolver is completely possible, if you don't mind having to reload it after every pull of the trigger.

 

I try to ignore gun mods. There are enough problems with vanilla weapons as it is (combat rifle uses .45? Pistol ammo? That's not a rifle. Single shot it's a carbine, full automatic it's a submachine gun. And there is a reason the military doesn't use drum magazines, they jam. A lot.)

 

Okay, except for mods that add silencers to revolvers. And full auto crossbows. Because both are physically impossible.

I left "public" modding some time ago (simply have no time to give support to mods), though I still have recent posts in the GMAD from when all this blew up (before I lost access).

 

People should see what I do to my weapons. They would rip their hair so hard that the scalp would come attached to it.

 

For example, I changed the Beretta 92FS to energy + cells, same with the G36, and made them nice and OP so that those lvl 100+ NPC (I have a mod to make enemies scale to my level every time I load cells) can't rely on being a sponge. I also made the FS explosive, and the G36 has plasma (turned them into legendaries).

 

I think I can already hear the screeching of their tortured souls over what I did to my weapons. :laugh:

Exactly what I was talking about. Lol

[steamteck]

There's always stuff made you wouldn't use yourself or don't think is cool but why complain? No one is forcing anyone to download it and more options are always good. someone or ones may really really love it. How selfish and self centered to complain about someone's work that is in no way being forced on you.
