Bugged Hacking in modded game.

[Deleted7509198User]

Hello everyone. I'm having a very particular problem. My load order is stable and just about everything is working fine, with the exception of terminal hacking. Somewhere along the way something I did during mod testing or something a mod did affected the science skill.

The science skill works like normal until you get to a hacking screen. During hacking their is only one word listed, completely defeating the entire hacking minigame. So IF you have the skill to access the console then you log in and see only a single word which is always the password 100% of the time. This is true on very easy terminals all the way up to very hard terminals.


The game is acting as if my science skill is at 100 even though it isn't. And it only has one word on even very hard terminals leading me to believe it's a mods work. So here is my load order

None of those mods in particular should affect hacking. However this install was a "working debug install" and many things were installed and uninstalled during the process. Some of which aren't in that list any more, though none in particular affected hacking.

 

So is their any particular mod in that list, FNVedit variable that I could use to trace this or anything I can do to figure this out?

The games main menu: change the game settings from easy to very hard, I doubt the mods can over ride that and it WILL set it up to be almost impossible to crack a terminal.

Just tried it and it didn't work. The game was initially set to normal since I never messed with it. And on very hard it's still doing the same thing...

There was a dirty edit in Nevada Skies that has never been fixed that set the hacking max word count to 1. Delete that record or get http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/45563/?'>the fix

Thanks. I just figured it out by process of elimination. Though now that I know about the edit I can fix the mod rather than just abandon it.

 

Thanks much.
