Fallout Series Thread V14: When i entered this thread i was hoping there would be more gambling - Games

[QUOTE=FlamingBlizza;45595700]Any really good tweaks to make Fallout 3 more stable? (Besides the InumHWthreads thing.)[/QUOTE] Fake borderless window or whatever, large address aware enabler, and consider going through and optimization guide and messing around with some INI settings. Otherwise, just save all the damn time. You can do a manual save really quick by opening up the console and typing [B]save "[I]Name of save file here[/I]"[/B] That also works in New vegas and I think skyrim as well. Super handy.

[QUOTE=FlamingBlizza;45596056]is it compatible with a quite heavily modded New vegas, or is it recommended to do a reinstall?[/QUOTE] would recommend a reinstall but it won't break or anything if you install it over your heavily modded copy. i had around 120~ mods when i installed ttw and while it ran like shit it still worked to a playable extent

[QUOTE=Magmacow358;45595524]So I managed to get a [I]direct hit[/I] on a slaver with a crit fatman and uh... [t]http://i.imgur.com/6qXofpX.png[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/3OqeuDr.png[/t] Yeah. [sp]"E) Search Agonized Remians". I love E.V.E.[/sp][/QUOTE] I only manged to score a crit with a fatman a couple times but when its in large groups its pretty cool.

Super handy.[/QUOTE] a mod called CASM allows you to essentially makes a manual save instead of a quick save when you press f5. Also it has a customizable autosave option that creates manual saves based on certain conditions.

The choice to insert the modified FEV virus into the water filter in Fallout 3 could have been a pretty interesting decision, if you weren't constantly told that it's the "bad" decision and you will lose karma for it. I really hate the karma system since it really takes away the moral ambiguity from most of the actual choices in the game and just labels you as bad or good.

So I've been trying to install Tale of Two Wastelands and... [img]http://i.imgur.com/iNuUqS4.png[/img] [b][i]AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA[/i][/b] This bug glitches my install and then I can't do shit because of it. There isn't even a fix as far as I'm aware.

So I've started Old World Blues on my new character and I have this weird issue with the doorways in the Sink. I got a mod to fix bugs with the Sink after I saw this, but it remained unchanged. None of my other mods should affect the DLC. [t]http://i.imgur.com/wzQurzW.jpg[/t] It only looks like the rooms are missing, I can go through the doorways and the other side will be there as usual. Any ideas?

Any ideas?[/QUOTE] Seems like an occlusion bug (Occlusion is a developer trick to stop the game from rendering rooms and things that aren't in sight. Helps with optimization) Unfortunately, if you are reporting that there are no mods that affect the sink and you tried to install a mod to fix it, you might have to revert to a previous save and see if the bug occurs then. If it does, then try re-installing the DLC by deleting it, then verifying files through steam.

There isn't even a fix as far as I'm aware.[/QUOTE] It's a bug with WinRAR specifically. Even if you shorten the path it won't work. Try using another program or 7zip which is guaranteed to extract. In other news, I've reinstalled F1, F2, and FNV with TTW in hopes of actually sitting down to complete them. Are the recommended mod lists on the first page still solid or has it changed since then throughout the thread?

The Enclave Hellfire Armour looks so fucking cool. I don't get why people seem to love the brotherhood armor designs so much, the enclave ones look so much cooler. [t]http://i.imgur.com/dmHkeum.jpg[/t]

The only good BoS power armor is the Outcasts PA. That is the shit.

you just reminded me how fun the incinerator is sneak killing people from super far away with it, watching the shots arc far across the sky is great especially when bloody mess procs and flaming body parts fly through the night sky like little fireflies

[QUOTE=Falkok15;45610971]The only good BoS power armor is the Outcasts PA. That is the shit.[/QUOTE] i was using that one until suddenly a pipe from the armor started showing in my first person view, no idea what caused it to happen (or if it was happening and i never noticed it) but it was so annoying i had to switch

Can someone help me with a power armor/heavy energy weapons build? the issue im having is starting off.

[QUOTE=_charon;45609942]Whiiiiich I have, and hadn't thought about. Damnit LOOT, you failed me. What is it about the load order?[/QUOTE] I believe it said to load it "as low as possible" in the load order.

[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;45622951]So I decided to install Tale of Two Wastelands. 1 hour later, [url=http://www.zambiasi.com/Ecommerce/Zambiasi/it/images/841585.jpg]this is exactly how I feel[/url] :v:[/QUOTE] Your not even on windows 8 were you have to confirm that each separate part of the installer has finished

[QUOTE=selby3962;45622377]I believe it said to load it "as low as possible" in the load order.[/QUOTE] I saw that and tried it, no luck. Also tried reinstalling in case I activated something I shouldn't have, no luck there either. Guess I'll just disable ILO for the duration of OWB.

Is it normal for my TTW Chinese assault rifle and xuenlong both have broken textures?

Is there any c hance of me joining the PnP? I've never really gotten into playing thse before but I've tried (Dabbled in D&D, Tried to play another fallout PnP here that didn't work out for me) and I'm interested in trying again. If I can join at all, what times are the sessions held, how long are they, what do I need to do to prepare to play?
