In game notepad mod?

Recommended Posts

Have been searching for one without success. Needn't be anything pretty but it would be great to have an accessible text notepad from within the game. I suggested the idea of a mod using pencils as 'fuel' for such a while back, but was wondering if even a basic notepad option was available.

 

Thanks.

If there is a notepad available in game I don't know about it. I don't think it could be added via a mod, I've only been modding FNV a couple months so I could be wrong.. I really wished for one myself when I first started playing NV, a lot to learn.

 

I'm now running Fake Fullscreen Mode Windowed and really like it. It runs the game in windowed mode but full screen and you can Alt-Tab between FNV and Windows, where you can have all the notepads you want.

Well Pelgar, I play in normal fullscreen mode and I can Alt Tab all I want...never had problems with that.

hsparkes, I haven't found one but I usually fix my problems... I found myself in the situation of wanting to check some notes in-game, so I created a "custom command" via a txt(bat) file and just used the command in game so it would show a message already written.

If you don't understand...here's an example:

 

in geck create a message called "MyCustomMessage"and write your stuff. (save, of course xD)

go to the game folder and create a text file named "buahaha". Open it and write "ShowMessage MyCustomMessage".

Now in-game just open the console and type "bat buahaha".

 

Does it do the trick for you?

I'll have to investigate, but thanks. I came to the community here as a gamer interested in seeing what the mods were all about, and not as a creative contributor, so I haven't used GECK at all.

 

Currently a bug is rendering my playthrough crippled anyway :( but in the event it gets back up to speed, I'll give one of the solutions above a try. Thanks both.

If there's a bug in your game you could tell us and maybe someone would make a mod to fix it.

Anyway, making an in-game note pad, in other words, a text input that you could save, in my opinion would take a lot of coding and knowledge.
