Player Controlled Vehicles

[Chase Yojimbo]

Whenever I play FONV or even back in FO3, I always think this, "Why don't they have vehicles, such as a motorcycle for instance?" Is it that the system can't stand up to it, or does it defeat the purpose? I remember back in ESIV Oblivion where someone could make any type of mount they wanted (through extensive modding of course.) I ask, why can't a mod be made for FONV where you can literally have your own customizable vehicle, most preferably a Motorbike. If I had any programming experience whatsoever, I would try and create this, but I always look to see if someone has tried it before and no one has, is there an answer as to why there isn't?

Well I assume it would be harder for FO3 and NV, since there is nothing at all for you to mount/drive/ride/fly...

 

 

In oblivion you can mount a horse, so I assume its less work to make a mount mod for oblivion.

There is a hoverboard mod out there, which is pretty decent, except for the fact that it is still pretty slow and a little bit difficult to control. I would definitely like to see a faster, possibly WASD controlled hover-bike/car.

As far as I know, the game engine can't handle vehicles. You will see driveable vehicle mods out there, but the controls and physics are basic. Making a car the handles like a real car would likely be impossible or at the very least, incredibly difficult.

if it can be done of FO3 i'm sure it can be done for FO:NV

I remember a mod in FO3 that added driveable motorcycles (and a lot of em) to the game, but i think it was a one of a kind mod, i dont remember seeing any others, i guess it might be worth while asking the author to try to port it to NV.

Yep the motorcycles in FO3 were fun. Sketchy sometimes but a cool blast. Will be much better suited for New Vegas!!
