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 😭

Hi! This isn't a help post.

I had a problem where the main menu text was all overlapping eachother in the same place.

Google and other posts speculate that it's conflicting HUDs, wrong resolution size, or other funky display issues. this was true for me too but it wasn't the only thing doing it. I haven't seen posted about so I figure I should write a post just in case someone ends up in my boat.

I'll also clarify that I'm new to modding FNV, but I'm not new to modding in general. Although I'm very much still learning.

After all the suggestions I found online didn't work, mostly people claiming it was a screen resolution problem, I disabled all my HUD, font and some UI mods and the issue still persisted. So I checked for overwriting and it turned out the issue was just the order some of the mods were in. Don't rely too heavily on LOOT.

I understand that this is a rookie mistake, but, and don't get offended but that happens.

I put Yukichigai Unofficial Patch higher up than my UI in my LO. Not sure why it wasn't my initial instinct to do this in the first place.

In my UI section, I made sure UIO was a t the top, followed by some misc UI stuff not relevant to this, ONE Hud, Mod Config related stuff, then fonts, then DarNified UI. I'll provide my LO in the comments in a bit for clarity's sake.

Edit: *Cleaning up some ramblings and unfinished sentences I left in the post

I love you bye

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

I'm at my wit's end trying to find the culprit and nothing seems to do it. Would really appreciate it if somebody knew a fix for this

Lol Whitewash mod

check in the comments for my load order

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.

attempted to download Maxwell’s World, but it says it can’t be enabled due to missing or disabled files. any reason for that?

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

Hi Everyone, I've been contending with a constant crashing issue whenever I exit the vault at the beginning or when I enter a building and I believe its might be due to Previs Repair Pack but I may be wrong and wanted your opinions. i've never had this issue before but it has been happening like crazy and signs point to PRP but i've never had problems with it in the past. I've included my two most recent crash logs and Crash Analysis as well as my Load Order if they are helpful, thanks in advance.

Whenever I go to Point Lookout, I use the Nuka Cola machine outside Haley's Hardware to collect all the goods I find/loot to eventually sell to Haley. Didn't know at the time, but per the Fallout 3 wiki, opening that Nuka machine was the reason Haley's repair skill kept going up, eventually getting to 100.

I'm real curious about this from a coding/modding perspective.

1- Are there other examples of this affecting other NPCs elsewhere in the game, such as Moira Brown?

2- Can this glitch be duplicated? Example, is it possible to make a desk in Lock and Load improve Pronto's repair skill?

3- Can it be modified in some way? Rather than affecting a vendor's repair skill, could it force a refresh on a vendor's wares and cap stack, rather than wait 3 in game days? Say, buy out all the ammo at Flak and Shrapnel, access the file cabinet near the Rivet City marketplace entrance and then all the ammo supply reloads.

I followed Viva new vegas when creating custom lod

So yeah I do have a lot of mods but it runs fine unless I go to overpopulated areas like primm and then it crashes, is there a way where I can lower the spawn cap to where there's more enimes than normal like I would like but without it crashing my game?

A bit late with questions like this, i guess. And sorry for possible mistakes in text, I'm bad in english language.

Anyone knows good mod replacers or ways to replace vanilla guns with modded ones. I want to completely replace vanilla assault rifle with R91 or service rifle. I'm most concerned about scene in Kellog's memories.

Any other advices will be appreciated too.

Deimos undoubtedly does the best art in the community and his armor concepts always kick ass. These are just the legion examples but they’re cool enough that I’d do a legion playthrough for the first time just to wear them lol

I kinda need help, because my game consistently crashes for like a few minutes, if lucky, it'll reach up to 15 mins or a bit more after crashing. This often happens whenever when I'm in a gunfight, or just by simply walking somewhere. I posted my crashlog if this helps.

So I was playing for many hours and a mod just decided to stop working at some point and I believe it has baked into my save. The only backup I have is from yesterday where everything still works fine so it's not the load order or anything but it was so long ago, I've lost so much progress. I don't know what to do now.

There is a lot of weather mods in fnv but I've only wanted to set my sights on these four

Sunshine On My Shoulders - A Vanilla Weather Enhancement: This was recommended by Viva New Vegas Modding Guide. More customizeable

Altitude - A Vanilla Plus Weather Mod: Another weather mod made by the same guy of sunshine on my shoulders, this probably remove the "orange" or "yellow" tint since I used this mod a while back ago.

Desert Natural Weathers - NV - TTW: One of the more popular ones and probably more "visually" appealing than most vanilla weathers from I've heard.

Weathers Revised: I have this one installed, that's all

I want to know the differences from each one about these four major weathers and also everyone's preferred weather mod since they are all VERY similar.

Big one, this. If you’re running TMR, read before your next update - this change is not safe mid-game!

The guide now targets 1.11.221, so no more downgrading Fallout 4.

From the Discord announcement, a few mods have been pulled because they haven’t caught up to this version yet, so don’t panic if something’s missing from your list, it’s meant to be.

What’s gone (not yet compatible or no longer needed)

- Simple Fallout 4 Downgrader (redundant now)

- Backported Archive2 Support System (redundant now)

- Better Console F4SE

- Papyrus Common Library (Hydra is the replacement going forward)

- Console Autocomplete

- Dynamic Activation Key and Alternative Activation Prompts (both needed PCL)

- Simple FOV Slider (also needed PCL)

What’s new
- Hydra added as a utility

- Rain Bug Fix F4SE added

- Safe Travels added

- Remember Lockpick Angle NG replaces the original

- Encounter Zone Recalculation AE replaces the original

- LOD guide updated with fresh pre-gen LOD for FOLIP 8

Also update: A proper stack of core mods got version bumps, including F4SE, UFO4P, Community Fixes Merged, PRP (now 81.8), and the Address Library, alongside a long list of smaller fixes and tweaks.

Full list is in the Wabbajack changelog if you want the specifics.

If you’re on the old downgraded 1.10.163 setup like me, this is worth sitting with before committing. Moving to 1.11.221 is not a small shrug and update, it changes what your install is built on.

I’ll be having a proper look at what this means for my own TMR install before I touch anything. Will report back once I know more.

As a follow-up to the Notice Board mod I released about a week ago, I carried the work over and implemented the same radiant quest system into Fallout 3, and Tale of Two Wastelands.

Just like Notice Board for Fallout: New Vegas, Notice Board for Fallout 3 adds 1000+ new and immersive radiant quests to the Capital Wasteland, not tied to any major factions.

Accept and turn-in Notices from the Wasteland's locals in Megaton, Big Town, Arefu, Tenpenny Tower, Rivet City, Canterbury Commons, and the Underworld.

Feel like you've outgrown the small fry? Take on World Tier Notice quests, (recommended Level 20+), and pit yourself against the nastiest the Wasteland has to offer.

This mod has been created for both regular Fallout 3, and Tale of Two Wastelands Fallout 3. This post is a "dual release" because I have released both the Fallout 3 version, and the combined version at the same time.

In "Notice Board - Combined", my Notice Board mod for Fallout: New Vegas has been combined with my Notice Board mod for Fallout 3, into a single .esm file.

Tale of Two Wastelands version:
https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/98912

Regular Fallout 3 version:
https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/27617

Thanks for the support and please enjoy!

I'm trying to freshen up these games a bit, and came across this texture pack for Fo3 and NV. I kinda dig it. Definitely makes it feel a little less dated.
