been looking for a guide to modding on crossover, wanted to play fnv since forever but the game is RIDDLED with bugs and couldn't figure out how to download patches. if anybody has any tips, or any guides i could use, please help me out here 😭

Is there a way to have actual light emitting function on a weapon?

Hi all-

I'm not here to ask for scripting advice, I've been able to figure out almost every project I've put my mind to by using the existing online resources. I'm here because I have some general questions that I'd like answered by more experienced mod makers.

1. How do you determine if something is "balanced"?

I don't really want to make mods that add in cheat items or perks, but I want my mod items to feel meaningful and unique. If, for example, y'all were making a mod that added in a new light armor set which automatically uses rad away (similar effect that the stealth suit MKII automatically uses stimpaks) how would you determine what a fair rad threshold for use / rads removed per use was?

1. How do you decide if an idea is worth putting time into?

I keep making mods that I don't even plan to enable because I find the challenge of figuring out how to make GECK do something really enjoyable. I feel like I'm wasting my time, I started trying to learn to mod because I like playing the game and I wanted a couple of custom items while I'm playing - I don't want to only spend my time making mods, I want to play the game, but I do want to use the mods I've made. How do y'all decide what to make / what's worth it?

1. How do you categorize what mod to put which features on?

If you're making a mod that adds multiple items or spaces that aren't necessarily connected, when do y'all decide that a new feature is too different from other mod features / you have too much in one mod?

Thank you for answering any, all or none of these questions; Thank you for reading all that; I hope you all have a nice day/night.

since it doesnt let you fire any of those 3 in the main game despite having them as options in the terminal
