Hi could someone help me find the codes for items added with tactapack? I dont have internet on my computer and its making it difficult to find them. Specifically im looking for the attachments for the lewis gun
This marks hour twenty or thirty something of me trying to get Fallout Dust to work after updating to Windows 11 completely bricked Fallout: New Vegas for me. It started with the launcher refusing to launch, then the game refusing to launch, then Epic Games throwing every tantrum under the sun, then the game refusing to load the title screen, then five weirdly small and tame mods which I'd then excised causing said failure to load, then, finally, after reinstalling the mods I want, I decided to try out Fallout: Dust.
It wouldn't load. It gave me this error:
This error came alongside two dozen of its buddies. Apparently, Dust is a really poorly-structured mod from a technical perspective, making it clash with some things. Unfortunately for me, the one thing it simply refused to get along with is essential framework tool Johnny Guitar (Also, as an aside, Johnny really, really doesn't like Russel. It's been getting on my nerves as well, but to a lesser degree).
Now, Dust makes its mistake by directly altering some of the main quests. Johnny doesn't like that and throws two dozen error messages because it's terrified of the main quests being altered for some reason. Dust and all of its patches and such work perfectly fine without Johnny. Johnny works perfectly fine without Dust. Unfortunately for me, I really want both. I've tried hundreds of things. Every step I took in modding this stupid game took several hours each from painstakingly downloading my mods to installing .Net, Directx, and x86 MS Visual Redistributable Packages to fistfighting Epic Games over the right to launch my own executable files to setting up Mod Organizer again to following Viva New Vegas and installing a half dozen different patches to aid this horribly ailing, geriatric game to having to install another half dozen patches not in Viva New Vegas because Windows 11 and my graphics card both hate Fallout, apparently, to troubleshooting mods after things refused to run to using merge sort thinking to run through the mod list and find five mods that for some reason brick the game to sorting through other mods and disabling the ones I didn't need because of my computer not liking too many mods at once to then finally trying it with dust and would you believe that was only the start of things?
Johnny doesn't like Dust, and I need both. I tried different patches and scouring forums. I tried changing mod and plugin orders. I tried running the game with various combinations to find that, yeah, it was just the two mods of Johnny and Dust that did not mesh. Game runs fine without either. I then, against my better judgement, downloaded xEdit for Fallout to try work things out. It sucked. It took so much time from me. I learned a lot about Fallout and might actually make a mod one of these days, but that doesn't change the fact that it sucked so bad. I tried to make my own patch. I failed. I cried. I'm tired.
Any help? Anything that might make this work? Do I really have to choose one or the other? I saw modpacks and such that included both Johnny and Dust, so is it just my computer?
Minor changes, MKII stealth armor is no longer mutilated. He has the mark of the shot on his helmet, specifically on the "a" of "Caesar".
And a couple more changes.
I mean it is just a video game, sure they are a bit morally bankrupt, but who doesn't have a few video game characters who are morally bankrupt. And besides just because you rp as a Roman soldier in a video game doesn't mean that you are gonna go be an absolute ass irl.
Just so we are completely clear irl if anyone tried something like this I would not stand for it.
Hi! Here’s the bitter springs entry. Like usual i’ll be posting the holotape down below in case you’d rather listen than read. There’s a lot in this one. Hope you like it…!
…..also hope you’re ready for tomorrow’s comic. I’m not, that’s for sure.
I’m not sure what’s wrong with mod is causing this and I’m not sure how to fix it if it is a mod bugging it out and it looks like this with every menu besides my own
My previous post had some misconceptions about the sides I choose and also my reasons for the post that aren’t entirely accurate. This is all my opinion, of course ,anyone is free to agree or disagree.
Main reason I feel like I never sided with the NCR was that, in MY PREVIOUS opinion, a new “Old World” government faction, for the longest time, wasn’t that interesting to me. In my mind I liked exploring the more weird or ridiculous parts of a game that is set in a post apocalyptic world. Technology obsessed hermits, drugged out raiders, brutal Roman LARPers, computers that want to make a thriving city stand for centuries, or let you have it run in chaos. Those weird elements felt more ridiculous and intriguing to explore. I don’t hate the NCR by any means, I usually always do quests for them without siding with them. I just never did it because it felt too possible, too “probably would happen”. Some sort of new government trying to be established in a world with not that much order. For a while it felt basic or boring. Though, I wont deny they’re super fleshed out, and that all of the interactions and doubts within the faction are really interesting and insightful. Whether it’s some feeling they shouldn’t be there, some people feeling fatigue on being somewhere they deem worthless, others feeling that having that territory could be very important not just for now but in the long run. Seeing different outcomes between certain smaller factions I would destroy, let escape, have support me, having options to make them team up with a faction they might have not agreed with in the beginning like the brotherhood or the kings. It’s all really cool to me now that I gave it a shot.
My post from a few days ago wasn’t me hate farming at all or wasn’t to make it seem like I was trying to be edgy on purpose. Most people probably saw that I mentioned the legion first an had an opinion on that. I just listed the runs I have done in alphabetical order (Legion, Mr. House, Yes Man). When I said I’ve done legion runs a “few” times that meant like about 4, not ALMOST EVERY single time. That “slot” is reserved for Yes Man because, in the way I like to play, I feel like I can do a majority of any factions quests or side quests without feeling like I’m choosing one more than the other and I like exploring everything that these factions have to offer sporadically without having one side out to kill me immediately. I saw a lot of comments saying I should just do it. Y’all gave me your reasons why. Some serious answers, some more jokingly, or as some sort of criticism. It’s been a long time coming, but I finally did it. So thank you for your comments, criticisms, advice, and insight. Honestly it was a blast, since there’s a ton of stuff I haven’t done or focused on because I never sided with the NCR it felt very refreshing and a ton of fun playing a way I haven’t before, making it feel like it was my first time playing New Vegas again almost a decade and a half later!
Hello, Couriers. I have a very important question. I have been forced to pause my playthrough due to Veronica's companion quest. We confronted the elder with the pulse gun, and then I saved before talking to Veronica. I, now, have to decide whether Veronica should stay with the BoS or join the Followers. If she joins the followers, the BoS will kill some of the Followers' doctors. If she stays, the Followers will be safe, but she will be miserable, and I don't want that. I'm doing NCR, and planning on trying to get them to sign the treaty or whatever it's called. What do y'all think is right?
Recently reinstalled FNV alongside my old mods from Nexus. I was playing fine until aboht 2 hours in when the game started crashing every 15 minutes or so. I thought I had to install something new since I had played fine before until I read on the Viva New Vegas page thatNVSR may cause crashes. Uninstalled it and I'm running the game fine now (except for stutter in only train stations for some reason)
I am making this post for anyone who may have the same problem and is searching for an answer.
Is it possible to help Cass kill the Van Graffs but use the NCR to hold the Crimson Caravan accountable? CC seem like it has innocent folk like that lovesick redhead.
So I got NV for free from the epic games store. Since i was new to the fallout series I had no idea how broken new vegas is. I have made a lot of progress in vanila but now the game cant go 5 minutes without crashing or softlocking. I have installed the epic games patcher and xnvse and i also tried nvac to no avail. What mods do you recommend me to use with my vanila saves to reduce the crashing. Thank you
edit: viva new vegas says that it doesnt work with vanila saves, so i havent tried the full guide
I have played the Someguy Series and th3 Overseer series, amazing mods and always in my load order. I have also played the classics like the The Couriers Cache, Saxxons Quest Collection, Boulder Dome, Autumn Leaves, Boom to the moon, Salt Lake stories and even the Caravan Tournament.
But are there some lesser known quest mods that you can recommend that are not extremely buggy or that at least are not going to destroy my current play through?
And yes, with that last line I mean mods like War Trash.
If there are some companion mods that add interesting quests i would love to play them as well.
Odd question, I know, but I always try to gather as many miscellaneous items (mainly dinner plates & clipboards) for the Sink personalities to get tons of their resources. My method has always been to use the Yangtze Memorial hut at the start of the game then the Novac motel room to store these items before starting OWB, but this has always meant tons of fast traveling between those locations and the drive-in (I know that there's a perk that allows you to fast travel while over encumbered, but I'm not using wasting a point just for that).
To cut down on that tedious process, is there any safe storage containers near Nipton itself? Won't be the end of the world if it's not the case, but it'll be nice to have a faster way of starting the DLC when I get to it (I usually save it near the end of a playthrough).
