Skyrim-like Debug lockpicking for NV

Recommended Posts

I know and do think that lockpicking is easy, and a feature like this only increases how easy it is.

BUT i think the "minigame" for lockpicking breaks my immersion of the game by a whole tons. (How many other people think this?)

Considering that most, if not all other things (saide from hacking) aren't minigame based.

Lockpicking breaks the immersion for me. Some would try and counter it and blah blah blah......

My problem is that lockpicking is not effected b lockpicking.

The only lockpicking does is allowing you to ACTUALLY allow you to pick a lock once your skill is high enough...

What kind of BS is that?

Atleast they did it right in Skyrim... The "sweet spot" got bigger depending on how good your skill were, so why not do it in Fallout 3 NV?

 

I think the Developers got lazy...

 

So i'm thinking:

Does Fallout 3 NV actualy have a Debug feature / hud that shows the "sweet spot" for a lock?

I have been googline for the last 20 minutes or so, but didn't come across anything really concrete,

just other random forum posts of people being annoyed with the immersion breaking tedious lockpicking minigame.

 

Ofcourse, i could just download and install this: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/34829/?

But it just feels ... Meh...

Cause as much as i like a "cheat" for lockpicking, i don't want something this ... radical........

 

So unless there is not debug hud, i guess i'm forced to use the mod i just linked...

 

HEck, i just tried to put my pickpicking skill to 5000 to see if that would make lockpicking easier, but no... as stated above;

Lockpicking only ALLOWS you to pick locks equal or greater to your skill level...

This in turn just makes the minigame tedious and immersion breaking... and utterly unnecessary!

 

So ya... any mods to change the interface of the minigame to show the sweet spot?

Or more so, if no mod exists, anyone able to slap something ugly but working together?

I don't need a fancy hud... just functioning ^_^ (heck, the Skyrim lockpicking debug feature is not even close to nice looking :tongue:)

 

((EDIT: Any moderator able to change titles? If so, Please add a question mark at the end of the title... in my "haste" to write this i kind of forgot... *DOH!*))
