/fog/ - FALLOUT GENERAL - COME FLY WITH ME EDITION

Oh it's PN, but I was just saying that I agreed with your logic and then remembered my personal experiences.

I thought so. Spice of Life, that I recall, doesn't really add backpacks you can find on the wild. I think you have to buy them, and 1200 caps is a lot of money with my mod setup.

Can you still just pirate the DLCs if you own the main game and they work fine for fallout 4 like you could with the older games?

Ellen is the most bland character, the VA isn't bad but her writing is so fucking boring. Her reactions are the most basic reactions possible.

No. the game specifically checks to see if it was bought on steam

Why isn't Heather any good? I'm not noticing too much trouble other than she doesn't fill the companion spot and invalidate lone wanderer.

>Spend over 2 hours modding NV
>40 mods, a dozen are bugfixes, comp patches
>Crash in the first 10 minutes of playing

Every fucking time with this game.

I just wish I could turn her voice off desu. her lines are poorly written and poorly voice acted.

otherwise she's fine.

I know that pain. Which is why I now walk around goodsprings for a bit after installing each mod. I spent all day monday installing mods, and never got to actually start my run until tuesday because of this

Post load order so I can laugh.

I have 112 plugins and never, ever, EVER had a crash.

That's no reason for them to cost 1,000 caps.
As a player buying it, maybe 250 at most
It's literally stitched scraps of leather. bagmaking isn't some mystical art that only one man knows how to do, logically.
Who knows.

>her lines are poorly written and poorly voice acted.
>otherwise she's fine.
Isn't voice acting and characterisation pretty much the only purpose of a companion? How can she be fine?

But what is a companion if they can't talk? Whats the point?

>needing a VA to characterize
Reading the lines is better than horrible VA. I thought nate established that.

All of the female romantic interests in fallout suck, except for Nora, who dies in the intro.
Piper is an annoying, naive, dogooder, Cait is a degenerate Irish subhuman, and Curie is an unimpregnable robot. Good job Bethesda.

Haven't really noticed any thing too horrible, then again I do listen to while playing so the only way I know to pay attention to them is subtitles.

Why aren't you using the merged DLC module for Project Nevada?

Also, I'm not surprised to see Freeside Open and Strip Open in there.

It's called "balance", user. The more useful something is in-game, the more value it should have. Else you can break the game very easily.

It's why I also removed magical companion ammo from companions. Even ED-E's. That way fights aren't pushovers thanks to ED-E's fantastic lasers.

Waifus and robots.

>video game romantic interests
>ever
It's like you want the world to know you can't get an actual waifu.

>the more useful something is
Eh, the logical conclusion to that is hoarding ammo to sell for massive amounts of cash, as it has more value than anything else.
so I prefer not to think too hard about it.

It's true. Remember, though, this is a game. Ammo is very plentiful in New Vegas. These backpacks can only be bought. And because they are so useful (can carry more stuff, which means more supplies/ammo/weapons/vendor trash) their price has to be bumped up accordingly, IMO.

It's a personal tweak, nothing more.

I still don't see 1,000+ caps.
Do the things double your carry weight or something? Mine only add around 40 lbs, which is believable

>Isn't voice acting and characterisation pretty much the only purpose of a companion? How can she be fine?

Her game mechanics are cool, her outfit is cool (except for the bag, but i can deal with it) and she's good looking.

>get on Veeky Forums to search /fog/ yesterday

Why are fags so annoying?

>goto /v/ instead
maybe you should stay there if you can't even spot the most obvious sarcasm

>being so triggered by an ironic thread title you fuck off back to /v/
Just go back.

Never entered the thread so I wouldn't know if it was ironic or not

please kill yourself today

Taking add between 15 to 45 (biggest). To me it seems like a reasonable price when playing the game, these things make it more easier so the initial investment is well worth it.

Can someone help me? I keep getting this blackface bug on some NPC's like Nora and Piper. What could be causing this? Load order is here: pastebin.com/D4LMUd1b

BLEACHED

HOW CAN BLACK BOIS EVEN COMPETE

>come into this thread after a 4 hour session of New Vegas
>143 mods no crashes

Which upgrade for ED-E do you prefer lads?

Followers of the Apocalypse (damage) or Brotherhood of Steel (armor)?

Yes and Yes

They're both great.

>no bethesda style game where you get to run around a forge world and you can meet spess mehrinse and inquisitors and stuff
suffering

Do you have some retextures for bodies, faces etc? Those don't use plugins so i can't tell.
Looksmenu (at the bottom of the loaorder for whatever reason) i can see, but i take it you installed no overlays, or other stuff?

>meet spess mehrinse and inquisitors
You would just want to go to the beach with them to kiss under the Eye of Terror in the nightsky or other autistic shit like that.

I always prefer damage in any companion to armour, ED-E can already take enough of a hit so having a more powerful laser is always good. Also the BOS in NV are complete cunts, attack caravans and enslave people who go anywhere near them, not worth associating with them.

Thanks for getting back to me. I have CBBE and a the Pride of Valhalla retexture for it. As for face textures, I have Real HD Face Textures 2k. Other than that, I have Xenius's mods. That's really all I can find relating to actual texture modification.

I haven't seen them do any bad stuff yet, but I still brought ED-E to the Followers because as you said he didn't get knocked unconscious once so far and I'm already good friends with them

Haven't seen Vault tec HQ in FO4 yet (I heard its in fo4) but I have seen it in FO3, and why is there no vault under it or in the FO3 city at all?

Depends on what I'm playing as. Even in fo4 my first playthrough was a full on BoS crazy person who nuked the institute and had a bunch of guns. Holding hands and kissing is only this more self inserty playthrough.

If I was playing as a guardsman or inquisitor or something and the character was more interested in killing bad guys then that's what I would do. If we were on a relatively peaceful planet and I decided to make a normal person character then yeah, I'd have a crush on the big strong inquisitor or something.

It's all dependent on the character you're roleplaying.

I always gave him to the Followers, I don't even remember which upgrade was which I just helped out my friendos.

>I haven't seen them do any bad stuff yet
Them meaning meaning the BoS

Yeah they seem pretty alright so far and the Brotherhood really hasn't done anything for me

And I'm just about to ditch the girl she is starting to really annoy me, I'll turn in her quest and never talk to her again

Why the fuck does Cait love having Nora piss on her in back alleys so much

>Real HD Face Textures 2k
Yeah well there you have it. Fo4 is already shitting the bed bad enough with texture- and decal pop-in, doubling all face textures and overlays most likely occasionally causes your game to not load the facegen files.
The modauthor mentions it in his mod description as well but his "fix" is pretty much just going into the SLM and resetting the facegen again to force a reload.

Thanks, I'll disable it and see if that fixes the problem. I downloaded the mod months ago and forgot all about the description.

This guy, let me tell you. Best night of standup I ever saw. He even acts like he's blind!

Between not being able to romance Ghost and the Followers of the Apocalypse (pacifists) upgrading ED-E's damage capabilities, I don't know what to be more butthurt about.

wait,... those are the only females we get? I thought it was more than that... fuck gonna google this shit now

Strong might be female, if that helps.

I decided to come back to try out this Sim Settlement mod, and I found out a bunch of my 'staple' mods are left broken and abandoned.
Anyone know any good replacements for Weapon Balance Overhaul or Better Mod Descriptions?

The only other female companion in the game is Ada and you can't romance her, unfortunately

I ended up googling it. Even the temp companions has only a small pittance of females.

well fuck....I never really looked it up and just thought oh im dumb and havent unlocked them yet.... nah shitthesda gave us the dick love brigade....

I'll just use mods to grab some random chick like sharing and caring let me do in fo3

Giving a machine a female voice doesn't turn it female user.

Well my dick turned your mum into a cockslut so anythings possible

Great, I love getting my serious question about lore ignored and the waifu-pandering shit questions about mods are getting answeree

I don't care my mom ran off before i was born.

Maybe no one here has the answer right now, and people won't comment that they don't know. Just try again later when more lore-oriented people are on.

>being this new
This is the containment thread for waifufags and special needs builders user.

>tfw playing nuka world for the first time
It's surprisingly not shit.
The pack are muh suicide squad aesthetics and beast tamer style, Disciples are borderlands Psychos, And Oper8tors are muh aesthetic tacticool faggots.
Don't know who I hate most.
Kiddie kingdom was surprisingly good and challenging but I missed the quest so I missed the tunnels completely. (My fault)
Nuka bottling facility was another dungeon crawl and the final encounter made me really glad I grabbed the PA suit
Safari adventure looks fun but I feel like I won't get to save Cito :(
Is there a permanent cito companion mod?

Nuka World is fine if you like the exploring aspect, most of the parks (bar the Bottling Plant) are actually unique. That said there's really no option for good characters if you want the perks at the end.

What's so not-shit about a literal fetchquest DLC?

I know, that's why I'm wearing my Silver Shroud shit and using it as an alternate persona so the CW doesn't know it's the MM general doing this shit, and so I can kill off the raiders at the end.
Im easily entertained, I have 500 hours into FO4 before ever touching this DLC.

The worst part is both versions "clean him up".
What outfit is that?
What's stupid about backpacks is how rare they are in the first place. The game is shown leatherworking is a viable industry and economy in the FO universe yet nobody has any proper bags or kits on them.

Your question was sort of stupid and makes no sense. What are you asking, why there wasn't a vault under Vault-Tec Headquarters in D.C.? Maybe there was one that was just inaccessible? Why does the headquarters need a vault there? Especially when Braun has his own pet projects being invested in, anyone big on the board at Vault-Tec could have their contigencies elsewhere.

>why isn't there any vault in the FO3 city at all
Maybe there is though. But from a lore perspective it's very likely that any large subterranean projects immediately under D.C. would be directly overseen by the USA government or military. So there could be some hidden vaults around DC ruins still, but big vault projects would be other places most likely.

Nuka World raiders look outright ridicolous. I don't know what Bethesda was thinking.Aren't these guys supposed to look somewhat intimidating?
Pack wear furry pants and moosehelmets, Operators wear literally scrapmetal bowties, and the disciples wear helmets they couldn't even see through.
What a bunch of clowns.

shut the fuck up you whiny little bitch

Raiders have never looked anything but silly since FO3, so it didn't really bother me

>Get stopped before entering Mick and Ralph's
>HEEY YOU'RE THAT GUY, HERE'S SOME STIMPAKS
>Walk out
>Same guy
>HEEY YOU'RE THAT GUY, HERE'S SOME STIMPAKS
I like this King Fella. might stop by his place after I program some sex bot and test it out. Wouldn't want to give the Garrett's a broken sex bot, would I?

But if there was a vault, there would be records of it in the Vault Tec DC HQ and that citadel terminal possibly

Anyone know a way to send manufactured food right to the workshop so it counts as food?

What if it was but the terminal containing those specific records was destroyed or deleted?
Is v 111 references there? 81? Those seem like p good deals

Those don't appear due to the fact its a different region

So what if it was deleted?

What if you're deleted, faggot

Point is theres GOTTA atleast be a vault in downtown DC, there was one under Boston, even if its unfinished

The demonstration vault in LA was built under vault-tec's NATIONAL HQ to showcase what they could build to the government and win the project safehouse contract.

There are no vaults under the f3 and f4 vault-tec HQs because those are smaller regional HQs to oversee vault construction in the area, and by that time there were other ways for the public to see what life in a vault would be like, the museum exhibit in DC, and the among the stars 'ride' in nuka-world for example.

user I'm supporting that idea by saying there doesn't need to be a terminal entry saying it
Fuck you too by the way

Fallout 3's DC was as big as Fallout 4's Boston, which had a vault (114) under it

Theres no excuse for there not to be

Honestly its kinda eery that we don't know where some of the vaults are, what they were for, or how many there are in total

Brahmin Herder outfit from Spice of Life. It's a really great mod, and playing as a girl it made me get in touch with my feminine "what looks cuter on me?" side.

When you mean "how rare they are" you mean "in the vanilla game"? If so, I agree: the average post-apocalyptic fiction shows people carrying a lot of shit on their backs, yet everyone on Fallout, even travelers, don't have backpacks of any kind.

I have the Project Nevada DLC Support installed, but it's not listed on the plugins for some reason.

I get crashes even without mods installed. Not even on a shitty computer either.

This general is no longer tolerable

>tumblr gif
>tolerable
kys yourself

My FO4 is acting weird, my V key and my mouse wheel aren't working only in game. Resetting keybinds didn't work, I'm not using a gamepad, and literally every other hotkey input but those register.

But he's saying she's written poorly. It's still the same writing w/o the VA.

Have you tried turning your computer off then on again?

I'm a fucking idiot who can't read. It didn't give me the option to merge the DLC into one when I installed.

Both posts I quoted implied that VA was the most important part of the comp?

Well, since I'm doing that I guess my FO4 session is over for the day. Hopefully it's resolved when I play later, cheers.
