How do you get the UI mod working? It looks like this:



I've tried putting it in the data directory. So data/menu and nothing happens. I've also just tried putting it straight in the dir so data/bunch of files.xml data/dialogue,etc... and that didn't work either. The readme.txt sucks for this mod but I want to see more than 3 lines when I talk to people!

That is exactly what I did - copy "menu" folder in "data". It worked without any problem.

Restart steam if it doesn't work.

odd. Do you have to do anything to enable it? It's not under data files or anything since it's not an .esm.

I just put the menu folder into the Data folder and it worked fine

haha if you do the
Ede
companion mission, make sure you REMOVE anything that it's carrying that you want to keep or else it's gone.

I'm building a pistol/rifle sneak character and set my s.p.e.c.i.a.l as 6/6/5/3/8/7. My 3 tagged skills were sneak,guns, and lockpicking. I want to max out speech and barter as well, but will it make a difference if I only have a charisma of 3?

Is there a new PC patch?

If so, does it fix the issues that had to be manually addressed? Does it roll-back any of them?

Is the folder called "menu" or "menus"?

Because the file on NVnexus extracts to "menus".

How do I get into the strip without credits? I am to a point that I have 2 quests in there but can't remember who they mentioned to talk to to get a passport.

Help?
 
Has anyone ran into this?
I killed Eddie inside the prison but the people in primm still talk as if he runs the place. Was I supposed to set up a certain mission before killing him?
 
Holy shit, my buddy beat the game on Hardcore already and he got it on Wednesday. He is going for the achievements now, ridiculous.

I think he was level 28 at the end of the game.

So on Come Fly With Me,
what happens if you have enough science to mess with the navigation console?
The rockets crash into each other, black widow perk also does that, also can make it fly more straight but that is no fun

Nope. All I did was before starting steam, copied "menus" folder in "data" folder. Can't post screen to show it since I'm not at home right now.

It is "menus". I didn't remember correctly. Sorry.

Can I get a haircut/change my face anywhere?

If you get accepted into the kings you can visit a barber, but I have no idea what it takes to do that.
I'd like to know this as well. You'd think there would at least be one barber out there. I'd like to change my hair.

Wow. Must have been a pants-less couple of days. I've been there:lol
 
Has anyone encountered the glitch where you just keep shooting for no reason?

Thought my controller as broke at first but switched controllers but it continued.

Not yet but my character sometimes sounds like a woman when hit (360 version).

I did (PS3), I've also had a 'can't shoot or open up pipboy' glitch. In 12 hours of gameplay those are all the ones I've seen.

Another thing I hate is the fact that I can't beat some side missions if my skills aren't high enough.

I am in a bottling plant side mission and I can't shut down the computer because my science isn't 50. I came all the way through the plant to find that out.

EDIT: Who do I talk to to get into the strip? I am stuck.

Like in Fallout 3, my favorite thing to do is to just travel the wastelands with no clear goal in mind. I love it. The ambient music and sound is so good and you actually have to manage your inventory with no shops in close proximity. You stumble across a lot of neat stuff, too. I hate to use the word 'immersive', since it's been raped and murdered by the gaming press, but it would definitely describe the experience of wandering the wastelands.

I've made some progress on the quests but honestly I'm not even sure what I'm doing right now. I can't keep up with all the different clans and shit.

This is THE thing to do in Fallout games. Just pick a corner of the map and go toward it. Its what I loved about FO:3 and its absolutely what I love about this game. Since XP isnt tied to story missions or quests its all good in my eyes. I had over 85 hours in FO:3 and never finished 5 main quests.

This sounds like a ridiculous question, but how do I redeem this 5-part preorder code I got with my collectors edition? It's installed to Steam and I can play it, but I don't see where I need to enter it. Or is it for later, when it's done?

You can pay your way in, buy a fake passport from Mick's shop, take the monorail from Camp McCarran if the NCR likes you, or ask the King to let you in if you do some quests for him.
At least those are the options I am aware of.

I feel like a dick for cheating in the casinos.

Step 1: save game

Step 2: place huge bet

Step 3: oh fuck I lost

Step 4: reload game

I have no self control with in game gambling and save points. I did the same stuff in Yakuza 3 and San Andreas. I turned 100 caps into 2100 caps in no time last night.

Where is the king?

Steam > Library > Add a game > activate a product on steam.

After that it should auto-load or you can manually load it under Data Files in the NV Launcher.
 
My robot buddy is really putting me on edge. I'll carefully try to stealth my way through a crowd of enemies and suddenly "BRRRRR BR BRRRRR!". Scares me every time.

Might have to start this over...I was breezing along until I reached level 7,now the 3 quest I have left are way too hard(Come Fly with me and that Helios quest,those Robotrons are a pain)and if I go North,the Deathclaws destroy me,and I have no companions yet...I went Energy weapon and guns mostly,the better critical chance perk but i`m kind of going in circles now...hopefully I find a few easier sidequest or something...

Reminds me of when I'm just calmly strolling through some area admiring the scenery and then, BOOM slow-motion gory kill shot of some random enemy I didn't even see by one of my companions. That's some unnerving stuff right there :lol

I'm guessing Come Fly With Me is too hard for you because you're trying to kill the Nightkin. You don't need to (and from a design standpoint aren't really expected to).

Is there a mod out there that lets you respec your character's S.P.E.C.I.A.L. and traits?

I feel a little annoyed because I didn't realize that a few of the perks I wanted to take would require 6 or 7 PER.
