The Fens Sheriff's Department - Bleachers 2 need fix

[romalight]

i really like this mod series and i keep it at my data folder even i don't use it at the future. i think this mod is better than any DLC we see at the game. But, need fixing.

 

- Crashes around and outside Diamond City

- Crash the game trying to load a save. Never happen before.

-Try some quests, the map get destroyed and the markers get very close together and at one place of the map. The map lines get deleted and all i see is black. Look, at some point it get fix, but i don't like when a mod, kill my game mood. The problems start after get the green clearance.

- The dialogue at the basement, where the water thing is, try to give sheriff what you know, get stuck and can't continue even i use the holotape about Lily. Now i am stuck there and i decide i don't continue this mod, and well i never see the vault, close to Coastal Cottage settlement.

- Lily can't dismiss.

- Also i don't like that Lily must always use her power armor.

 

This is my final comment about the forum, because i don't want anymore to speak to people i don't know. Thanks.

I like the idea behind the mod.

It just makes SENSE that the wealthiest town in the Commonwealth a town in which one can buy fusion cores will have power armor available for at least some fractions of its security.

And the uniforms, the "police" power armor all makes sense and is IMO exceedingly well done.

Too bad this is all ruined by another factor.

 

When we consume fiction we have to do what is called "suspend disbelief" for a setting that is not our own.

Its not hard to about the post-apoc, right, it could happen...

 

But that the mod followed this "modern" trend to be a complete henhouse makes it impossible for me to suspend disbelief.

it's not not aligned with human nature.

 

The Sheriff is a girl (of about 26-30 no less!) the doctor is a girl, the main follower is a girl, your first contact to them is a girl.

yes I get it, girls are photogenic and i love looking at them too and folks will find excuses to put them into plots... but sheesh you are really not being plausible for a violent post apoc game.

A post apoc Sherrifs Dept is not going to be staffed like that but instead is going to be staffed more like a Somali Pirate crew.

 

I heard there is a lot of great writing in this mod.

And its a shame I had to miss out on it.

But I just couldnt continue past the first couple of quests, I just could not suspect the disbelief to enjoy this product due to the weird in your face casting.

I get the criticism about the bugs of The Fen's Sheriff Department. While I never had crashes using it, I had the map desaster which makes using the pipboy for orienting hardly possble. I installed a map mod and the problems were gone. Not sure wether that's a permanent solution, but try it.

 

I don't get the problems with the "girl power". It's a (parallel) world 200+ years in the future and from all we see there is no fundamental difference between men and women in FO4. It is also, probably unconsciously, a big fault to think that women necessarily have to be inferior in a violent world, that's based on biased perceptions of history and society. A Somali pirate crew is from a society with the habit of suppressing several people (among them women) for thousands of years in an unbroken cultural row, it's not at all a good example for what would happen in a world in a different culture after a big bang, with several ruptures in culture. And as it is as easy for a women to fill a person with bullets as it is for a man, there is also no "muscle power" related arguing possible why women have to be the underdogs of society. I'd wish for a more balanced composition of the department's personal, but I can live with how it is.

 

What made me deinstall the mod is the big role power armor plays in it. I have made me a more primitive and tribal Commonwealth, I don't like power armor and I don't want power armor around that much. That's personal taste, not the fault of the mod. Anybody should try it, it's great.

Its a great mod all around but it will not be for everyone.

I for one love Power Armor and feel in such a unjiverse most of us would never leave our settlment without it ( if we had access to the kit and enough fusion cores)

 

In game it is often more fun to run around without it of coruse because you feel so much more agile.

And who doesnt love to show off the Courser Armor we got asa trophy :D

 

Even so, have you tried the different paint jobs available from Mods?

There are some british and german ones that are in mods and look awesome.

This mod is broken, badly. I spent the entire time needed to rescue Lily from the Institute, waited th3 2 days, and now my objective is to meet McClintock, but my clearance went out the window. I cannot enter inside, even during the specified time. No dialogue option to explain this, it's like the dipsticks just forgot I exist and risked my life to rescue their dear Lily. Pretty frustrating waste of time.
