Did Homemaker just remove like 90% of the content? There aren't shrubs... or trees, or like half of the cool stuff anymore.

Incompatibility with DLC probably.
I saw an interesting theory on Tumblr just now about everyone's "favorite" settlement, Little Lamplight. The idea goes that it's essentially been a dumping ground for the unwanted children of wastelanders across DC for years, and that the Super Mutants don't mess with the kids because they recognize that they're effectively livestock. If they leave LL alone, then kids grow up and move to Big Town, where the muties can take who/what they want. They don't raid the cave for FEV subjects because kids don't work right with FEV, or something like that, so there's no point.

Who's to say they didn't? There's quests about big town's mutant problem
[QUOTE=VenomousBeetle;50759796]Who's to say they didn't? There's quests about big town's mutant problem[/QUOTE]
more of electricsquids speculation would have made it into the game if they truly thought about it that deeply
the problem with the "who's to say they [I]didn't[/I] do that??" response to criticisms like that is that, without that content actually being in the game, you have to assume that they didn't.
Except the content is in the game... Little lamplight never gets attacked by mutants regardless of being adjacent to them, and big town gets attacked by mutants constantly, even a quest to hold them off and teach them to defend themselves
The theory relies entirely on those facts, without the big town attacks it would just be an idea, and without little lamplight being near mutants it wouldn't exist
[editline]23rd July 2016[/editline]
Idk what else they could add? It's not like the super mutants are gonna stop and explain it to you, and how would kids and adults raised as kids by kids know about the reasons or figure it out
Edit
Plus Bethesda makes stories/mysteries out of breadcrumbs and environment clues all the time, i.e. Deathclaws near a corpse holding a recipe for deathclaw gauntlets
Terminal entries, NPCs on either side (Super mutants, the children, etc) and even NPCs from outlying factions (such as the slavers) could have known. It's not really my point tho - I'm not saying "well beth should have had someone tell you this stuff!" (although I find the excuse that beth can't implement exposition properly to be p. weak imo)
I'm saying it's very unlikely Beth thought about how these two factions interact, because Beth's known for not putting thought into how factions interact. Little Lamplight never getting attacked is simply because Bethseda couldn't have super mutants attacking a town full of unkillable kids. Super mutants attacking Big Town is because there's a quest relating to Big Town and super mutants.

[/QUOTE]
I guess that's ultimately what I'm saying. It's a theory that sprung up from the fact that little lamplight confusingly never gets attacked. If Beth's reasoning was deeper than what is shown in game, then surely little lamplights inexplicable safety would have been highlighted, instead of being ignored.

Yeah but Beth very rarely makes stories out of the placement of towns and factions (unless it's directly related to a plot). Fallout 3 was heavily criticized for seemingly having no thought put into the towns, their locations and how they interact. I don't know why Little Lamplight would be any different.
Slowed down the reload a lot, haven't fiddled with the hammer position much just yet. Anyone good with audio in the thread? I need some meaty firing/suppressed firing sounds for the magnum rifle (and a reload sound if it's even possible to mod that in). Ignore the music, if you can

edit: I might increase the zoom on the default ironsight. Might be hard for people to see the front sight on consoles/1080p screens, but I don't want the weapon to be unusable at short range
I think I got the script based leveled list to work.. at least I found my gun at a gun vendor! also made a snazzy NMM Installer. :P

They used to do that shit all the time in Morrowind and Oblivion. They seem to be getting in the habit again now, too.
I honestly doubt beth intended that theory for Lamplight. If they came up with something like that they would have been far more explicit with it.

Yeah, and you can't climb ladders because it represents the irrational fear of going up in a world devastated by radiation and not because it would be too much effort to implement without breaking something else.
The mutants of FO3 are literally too dumb for this to be true.
It's a cool theory, but I don't think Bethesda thought of that.
Hey, does anyone remember the name of that mod that added functional and "realistic" looking furniture to the settlement menu that actually looked like they were made from scrap?
I've tried searching on the Nexus and can't find it, thanks

I'm not sure if you guys are done with seeing this thing, but I got a chance to sit down and actually make fully textured beauty shots of the sniper rifle in all of its 'canon' configurations.

I never realized until now that the fo3-style snipers had flip-out monopods
neat
Only thing I could think that would make your sniper rifle better Lt_C would be an integration of the see-through combat scopes mod. I like the overall rifle but I stick to the red-dot because I just really hate that camera fade.
If you could do that I'd be ecstatic.
Lt_C that sniper looks so damn sweet, you're one of the reasons I wanted to try to add a weapon to fallout. Lovely stuff!

It's a really commonly requested feature, I just need to sit down and figure out how to redo my scope to use it and make a branch version of the mod. Support for that will likely be in the next major version.
Would see through scopes even work with sniper scopes? Pretty sure there's a few gameplay reasons why an overlay is used instead of an ingame mesh. Anyway I'm working on that chunky reflex for my chunky gun

Those scopes work really well actually, it works by using FOV zoom so its basically the same as the overlay that you get when use a normal scope right now, only difference is instead of it being an overlay, it moves the camera to where the mesh is.
So I decide it's finally time to start the Automatron DLC after putting it off. Go clear out the robots fighting Aida when suddenly... She starts ice skating away even after I try to talk to her to which she replies "no come back" as she slides away. I think I ended up bumping her or something cause she hit a car and uh....

So that's how the Automatron DLC was not started :v:
