Alternative Survival Mode Saves


Hecateus

Recommended Posts

yes I know there is a console use mod allowing one to save via that. But in the name of uhmerssiveness...

 

Typewriter + ink-ribbon. Works much like Resident Evil games. Need to modify typewritters to hold the ribbons like a container; and to craft fresh ribbons, make or improvise a new model for it....though an oblong box with a texture on it would work,

 

similarly...

 

HoloTape saves. Again works like Resident Evil games, but uses almost any computer terminal. The Pip-Boy and Terminals would need the ability for re-format non-essential tapes, and have a save/load game dialogue; these would need to be linked to the main menu save game list. No new models or textures needed. Easier for the modder and the player than the typewritter method and more lore appropriate.

 

Any other thoughts on this or other methods?

I like the Camera idea...am personally allergic to nicotine... ah well.

 

I am noticing that DavidTheFalcon is psychic or read this post... http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/13147/?#content still a manual save but THANKS DUDE!

 

[edit] having camera as an equippable "weapon" might take a while. Using it to take a screenshot would be cool. Not sure if this would be instant Polaroid style or if they would require dark-room processing.

 

[edit2] in game data recorder: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/12736/? there was another one like this using holotapes found in the wastes...but I am not finding it at the moment.

Have another one...ever play Earth Bound? (aka Mother) Use any available telephone to save your game. But it can only be done once per phone. Does not work in settlements, nor any phone you have looted then dropped. To activate, sit or stand near any phone...wait for it to start ringing, then activate.

 

[edit]unique used once but randomized sound files should be played.

some ideas:

Followers of Atom cold calling.

Pillars of the Community also cold calling.

Park Quinn cold calling for his credit card.

Ghouls being themselves.

Infant crying.

Some is trapped in the safe room at Fallons and can't get out.

Raider prank call.

Gunner recruitment pitch.

"This is a test of the Emergency Broadcast System; if this were a real emergency thenfkshhshshshshshsh...."

etc.
