I was having random CTD's and crashes/hangs when jumping to locations. Took AWOP and MoMod out and so far fine (used saved character and new character). Checked the load order with BOSS before turning them off. Didn't show any conflicts. I think AWOP and/or MoMod are a bit buggy.

AWOP and MoMod essentially do the same thing, just differently (if that makes any sense). As far as I know Monster Mod adds a shit load of new creatures to the game which constantly respawn, I think AWOP does the exact same thing as well as adding a ton of new interior cells. As you can probably guess that'll make your game way unstable. On their own the mods are probably fine. I would've expected AWOP and Monster Mod to conflict though considering both add exterior spawn locations.

There's only so much punishment the game can take.

What do the error messages mean on FMM?

Is it an error with the actual mod, or does the "Web version" header mean something else?

 

[Ponti]

It's an error on the Nexus side, nothing to do with the mods themselves. You can ignore it.

Sorry I completely missed this and I notice you've given up but ILO-Rust Town was your problem. Plugins with missing masters will give you an instant CTD when you start the game.

Thanks, I'm going to download the game again soon enough, haven't decided if I still want to go through this again but all I want to run is Nevada skies and Ojo texture pack. Is there a risk that 1gb of vram leads to the game crashing if I'm running those 40xxX40xx textures?

 

[neoism]

so guys I have a lot mods installed and My game crashes every 4 hours or more. But I was wondering isn't there any commands in the fallout default configuration file.... that can make the game look a lot better.
I have messed with it and changed a lot of stuff. But I still have bad pop-in, and buildings look like shit far away I'm wondering if some of them are wrong. Here's mine... also the 4gb mod wont work for me.. not sure why.

Kind of weird how a tiny bit of tweaking does a lot do improve the feel of the game - disabling v-sync / mouse acc, setting a higher FOV and adding the no auto aim mod.

Is there a way to disable the DLC check that appears right at the start when you boot up the game?

 

[Ponti]

so guys I have a lot mods installed and My game crashes every 4 hours or more. But I was wondering isn't there any commands in the fallout default configuration file.... that can make the game look a lot better.
I have messed with it and changed a lot of stuff. But I still have bad pop-in, and buildings look like shit far away I'm wondering if some of them are wrong. Here's mine... also the 4gb mod wont work for me.. not sure why.


sorry for the long post. Any help/pointers or anything would be appreciated.

The variable directly responsible for detailing distant objects is the uGridstoLoad command. Default is 5 but you can increase it (though I wouldn't go above 12 ish). The downside is it has a massive impact on performance and will likely cause stuttering. Also if you end up saving with the value set high and then lower the value again then your save game will be completely fucked and won't load, so make backups. You can increase the 'uExterior Cell Buffer' to compensate and reduce the likelihood of crashes but it's not required.

Some other commands that might be worth increasing:
fLODFadeOutMultActors
fLODFadeOutMultObjects
fShadowLODStartFade
fSpecularLODStartFade
fLODFadeOutMultItems
fLightLODStartFade

All of those can be upped in the launcher too, but the ini will let you go over the maximum the launcher allows.

I'd also recommend shoving the ini changes into all 3 ini files to make sure it sticks.

The Configator is a good program for tweaking graphics values and reverting back if something messes up. It doesn't have every value in it but it's pretty thorough.

I'd also recommend the Manual Reload mod. Stops weapons from automatically reloading once a clip is empty (you'd be surprised how useful that feature is on a melee character) and also prevents weapons from magically reloading when you switch to another weapon and back again.

As for the DLC check, short of disabling the DLC itself I don't think it would be possible. The DLC popup is likely tied to the script that initiates the DLC quest and cap increase.

Is there a risk that 1gb of vram leads to the game crashing if I'm running those 40xxX40xx textures?

Nah shouldn't cause that much of an issue. You can always increase the PreloadSizeLimit command in your ini file if you're having any performance problems.

 

[zkylon]

No idea neoism, but easy way to test if it's your configuration what's breaking the game, is backuping fallout.ini, deleting it and checking if the one that's created by the game works better.

Thanks, I'm going to download the game again soon enough, haven't decided if I still want to go through this again but all I want to run is Nevada skies and Ojo texture pack. Is there a risk that 1gb of vram leads to the game crashing if I'm running those 40xxX40xx textures?

Never heard of the game not working because the textures were too high res. Try Ojo Bueno, if that doesn't work, try Poco Bueno is all i can say. Frankly, i don't like either of those texture packs because their textures just look weird to me, like they're just the hi res textures, but they weren't actually thought for the game or something.

If you're gonna be messing with textures, make sure to use FOMM to install them so you can safely uninstall them if they're giving you errors. You should also try NMC's texture pack and see which one you like most: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=43135.

When using the grenade hotkey in Project Nevada, a quick press is supposed to equip the grenade. If i press an hold the key its supposed to throw the grenade. Is this correct?

In my case what happens is, if i tap the key the grenade equips and unequips quickly, so it sets me back to my previous equipped weapon. I can trhow the grenade if i hold the key but its pretty useless since this way you can't use it with Vats.

Any ideas?

It's just made to work like that, so there's no way around it. You probably already know this, but in the inventory you can map any weapon (including grenades) to a number key if you want quick access for tossing grenades with VATS.

Hi zkylon, how do you feeling today?

At first it worked like i wanted. A tap equiped the grendade.

Its kind of silly really. They should have made it, tap equip and press and hold throw. The problem with the in game number shortcuts its thats really not intuitive to hit the correct shortcut key, specially when in the dark.

So far the mod is really good, so thanks again for bring it to my attention.

On another note, is there a flash light mod? Fellout is really great because it makes night seem like night yet its really hard to navigate withouth a light source.

Mighty fine, thank you.

The grenade hotkey is kinda buggy, but i don't think it's ever supposed to actually leave the grenade equipped. I just tested it and one press to equip is not working for me either, so you might've just stumbled upon one of those weird cases.

Do try the quoted flashlight mod:

It's alright, not perfect. There's a lot of technical issues with using dynamic light sources like flashlights in NV, was the same with FO3 too. Lot's of flickering e.t.c.

Since your using PN finding a helmet with a night vision mode on it or using the Bionic Eyes implant usually works better for dealing with dark areas.

Yes, the mod talks about night vision equiped helmets. I haven't found one yet. But then i would be able to see clearly at night, i wanted a limited light source. Is there a penalty for using night vision in Project Nevada? Maybe it consumes action points.

I was thinking to hit the oficial site and sugests the mod creators a modified hotkey behaiviour for grenades since vanilla shortcuts in New Vegas suck. Another option im interested in is the hability to adjust head/weapon bobing while walking and joging. It feels so unatural to have the screen and weapon perfectly aligned.

Double tapping the grenade key sometimes equips grenades so they can be usable in VATs. It doesn't always work though. That grenade hotkey is just badly implemented, I dunno if it's a problem with the game itself or the script.

There is a mod that adds head bobbing here. Don't know how well it works as I haven't used it myself.

Wait. So THAT'S what is making my fan speed knock itself down while playing NV? I usually turn in up when I play games and I keep it around 60. When I play NV it makes afterburner knock it down to 40.

Afterburner has an user defined option that adjusts fan speed on the fly according to GPU activity, higher activity = higher fan RPM's. Vanilla New Vegas doesn't stress modern vid cards to their full capacity, so maybe its the reason you hear a drop in sound.

I want to keep the smart fan speed provided by afterburner and use the Nhance Shaders.

 

[Refreshment.01]

Just to let everyone else know, turns out you can use FNV Enhanced Shaders mod with Afterburner on if you keep it strictly for fan control.

To anyone that is using texture mods. I keep hearing good things about "poco bueno". I get more or less intense stuttering using default textures since my HD is a bit slow, will this mod made things significantly worse?

This brings me to my other question. Is anyone using the "4GB Fallout New Vegas" mod to make the game large adress aware. Does this help at all, even for the standard New Vegas? Does this cause any kinds of conflicts with the game or steam?

Hey thread!

As of this afternoon I'm going to be out of work for a little while, and one small project I'd like to get done is to get a good update done for the OP in preparation for Lonesome Road, since it's now pretty out of date. Since you guys have been doing a really fantastic job while I've been unable to update (especially hemtae, Ponti and zkylon -- you guys are the best) I thought I'd throw it to you all to say what you think should go in the OP.

So a few questions:

1. Should New Vegas be moved to the first post since it seems like that's what most people are interested in now?
2. Are there any mods in the OP which have been made redundant because of better versions or alternate mods?
3. Outside the obvious stuff (i.e. the "top" lists on Nexus) are there any super hot mods you guys think absolutely must make the cut?

1. I would say so, haven't touched FO3 since NV came out.

2. I would add the PN Patches mod as some other mods on the list (as well as the DLC) will need those compatibility patches to work with PN.

3. New Vegas Restoration, for getting rid of the gate and generally making New Vegas more 'Vegas-y', and it's sister mod Freeside Restoration.

DK's Female Face Textures are a must. There are two choices when it comes to new hair either Lings Coiffure or Mikotos. Unfortunately they can't be used together, personally I'd use Mikoto as it has the better selection and is updated more often. Hi Rez Eye Replacer is also worth installing (make sure to install it last so Mikoto's doesn't overwrite it). As for body mods there are quite a few to choose from, unfortunately most of them are on both ends of the ridiculous scale. The one that gets the most support from armour conversions and what not would be Type3 Body. The Armour Conversions to go with it. There are plenty of custom made armour and clothes for the Type3 body out there, going to the Armour and Clothing categories on Nexus and sorting by downloads is a good place to start. Not all armours have to be the exact same body type (Cali armour for a Berry body for example) to work.

1. In contrast to the two previous posters, I kinda like FO3 first to preserve the chronology but I don't care enough to put up significant opposition.
2. I'm not sure how good detailed normals is with OJO BUENO and NMC texture packs out now.
3. Some people really like increased wasteland spawns. I am not one of them. Project Nevada also some compatibility patches that I think are worth mentioning. So does A World of Pain. If you mention WMX, you should probably mention WME. I really like FOOK, especially with PN. With the interest that the two weapon pack DLCs are getting, I think Classic Fallout Weapons should get a mention even if PN and FOOK do take a lot from it and the weapon packs might end up taking the rest. Also when things calm down a bit and if it catches up on the whole update game, nVamp might be worth a mention

I was wondering and thinking that if there is a mod for New Vegas related to skill books appearing on the entire map as mark icons or something similar even for starting a new games and when you take it the mark will disappear obvious. I always need to move my head to the right on my desk to view my printed map and remember the place. Putting the map mark on the skill book is much easier and precise for me to travel there.

Does it just increase the size of spawned groups, or increase the amount of spawns as well? Former would be fine, but latter would probably just take away from the desolate wasteland feel.

Hey Ponti, just a comment to thank you for always coming up with good mod suggestions for people that need help, always pay close attention to what you bring. I will definitly had those in mind for the next run.

Regarding the Interior Lighting Mod Knew about that one, could you expand your personal take on it, is it a real improvement for the lighting? I was interested in the mod before just for one silly fact: for what i understood, the author claims he installed light switches for most rooms lights in the game. Not only i find this attention to detail amazing but i would inmerse alot more in the game. I'll try it but keep hearing it has some darkness problems with Enhanced Shaders.

It definitely makes interiors far more realistic looking. In most interiors Obisidian just took to shoving light sources all around to give most places an even and occasionally overly bright look. ILM gets rid of those random lights and places them on top of light sources in the game, wall lamps, roof lamps e.t.c. So the light is coming from where you would expect it to come. It also adds to the 'feeling' of an area, which is difficult to explain. Caves just feel right. Dank, dark and spooky. The one downside to it is that some interiors can be a bit too dark, though I usually have either night vision equipment with me or I use flares from the Light My Flare mod. It's a bit off putting in some places, like the Mojave Outpost, where'd you'd expect the NCR to have set up better lighting rather than working in almost total darkness. And yes, some interiors come with light fixtures. If you're playing a sneaky character it's an awesome feature and it's just a great feature in general. Unfortunately I don't use Enhanced Shaders so I can't say for certain if there are any serious problems there.

Sounds like it would work well alongside Project Ultimatum. The AI can be really deadly in PN, I dont know if I want to make them even harder

http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=37029

Adds lots of variety (up to 60 songs) to the Mr. New Vegas radio station, songs that mesh well with the game style. Downside: The new songs don't seem to play through the NPC's radios.

Regarding the Interior Lighting Overhaul (ILO):
For me it creates a problem... Rooms become dark spaces with puddles of light scattered around. There's not a gradual transition from darkness to light. However when it works, its great. For example, i entered a room full of NPCs, wanted to grab some things but i was always detected. I didn't knew it, but darkness affects NPC perception. So i flipped the switch to turn off the lights and grabbed the stuff undetected. Pretty sweet.

Another problem is that not all light switches work.
