M1574K3 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 (edited) Hi, I'm new here and new to modding in general. I really like the setting in Fallout New Vegas and I'd like to use the GECK to create a simple story scenario. I'm just wondering that with the customization and sandbox nature of the game if it's possible to create a mod where I set the character and limit the player to a set path. I know people tend to dislike that sort of thing, but I'll be doing this for my own entertainment. I've been looking at the GECK tutorials Bethesda put online and it's sort of discouraged me from what I'm setting out to do. They seem to be focusing on adding vaults to the game world when I'd like to create my own outdoor areas (or more likely modify existing ones) and add set pieces. I just wanted some advisement from people that have actually built mods for NV before I possibly waste time delving into the GECK too deeply. Is this sort of thing possible, or is the GECK mainly used to add quests/items to the main campaign? I have some basic programming knowledge, so learning how to write scripts will likely be possible. I've also noticed that there is a New Vegas Script Extender, but I'm not finding much info on what the added extensions actually are. Anyway, is what I'm proposing possible without major modification? Should I try a different game/toolset to do what I want to do? I suppose I could learn to use something like the Source Engine instead, but all the assets I want to use are already present in New Vegas.
