>>152405694
Should have mentioned in the OP, the Fallout 1 & 2 pastebin's content has been added into the ">General Information, Recommendations, Run Ideas, etc:" pastebin, should have renamed that too, my bad.

Thanks for helping me update the pastebin, anons.
I appreciate having others input on these matters.

>>152406118
All good, we'll get there next thread.

Who trains their troops better, BoS or Enclave?

>>152406127
Sorry I should have waited for your response instead of jumping the gun as soon as we hit page 10, thanks for working on them.

>>152406118
>>152406127
As long as the next person to make the thread sees these first posts we'll be fine.
Either re-add the FO1/FO2 pastebin to the OP, or just specify that the updated pastebin has the FO1/FO2 mods as well.
I personally like the pastebin staying, only because I like the classic games having their own pastebin for things, but that's probably because I wrote it.

No problem, I do this for all of you wasters.
I started heavily modding NV with that pastebin, so I'd like to keep it up and running.

>>152406571
I'd personally like it to stay as well, mostly so that it's a direct link to FO1/2 and also because I appreciate that you took the time to make it.
As long as people know it exists, I'm happy.

>>152406286
Probably the Enclave, as they're far more militaristic than the BoS.
But after their decimation, I'd say the BoS purely on numbers.

>start the video thinking this is some German folk song

Is there anything worse than seeing a really promising mod, only to find out there's no voice acting?

Or is it worse when the voice acting is fucking awful and far too loud, so that you have to turn the voice volume down, only to have to turn it back up again to talk to normal NPCs?

>>152407165
>I'd personally like it to stay as well, mostly so that it's a direct link to FO1/2 and also because I appreciate that you took the time to make it.
Thanks, anon. When the general wasn't a full general yet, and it was only a /v/ thread moved to /vg/, I thought it was kinda of fucking stupid that we were going to have an OP with no FO1/FO2 information at all, yet the general was going to be called Classic Fallout General.
I had played FO2 just a couple weeks before that so I knew were all the mods were, and FO1 just really has Fixt, so I just threw some stuff together real quick.

>>152407986

Voice acting is the death of depth anon

Quests in an RPG should be text-only dialogue

>>152408086
I agree, it would have been silly.
Sure, the modding guide does mention FO1/2, but as it turns out, the links were dead thanks again for letting me know

After all this time though, I still haven't gotten any patches or fixes for FO1/2, only played them vanilla.
Do they work fine from old install discs?

>>152408370
I can understand what you mean, but it's immersion breaking when everyone else in the game has a voice, but suddenly a hundred people don't.
That said, I tend to play RPGs without voices more than voiced games.
Which all happen to be on handhelds.

>>152408407
>thanks again for letting me know
Ah, it's no problem. Lots of sites I've seen use old, dead NMA links. For instance, the FAQ for mods on the GOG forums use them too. What the hell happened to NMA, anyways? Why did so many links/downloads get purged?

>Do they work fine from old install discs?
I use the digital GOG versions, so I really have no idea. But I'm fairly sure they would work. Almost positive.

>>152408724
>Why did so many links/downloads get purged?
I honestly don't know what's going on with them anymore.
They've still got old stuff up about Van Buren, but links to downloads are taken down?
It makes no sense.

>But I'm fairly sure they would work
I sure hope so.
I've considered getting the GOG versions for a while now, but after having installed them from discs for so long, it seems rude.

>It makes no sense.
I'm not sure what the hell happened over there, but it's a shame. NMA was pretty much the biggest fansite of the classic fallout games for over a decade. Meaning all the biggest and best mods were hosted there. And then, poof, all gone, all dead. Dozens of dead links all across the internet. It's sad, really.

>I've considered getting the GOG versions for a while now, but after having installed them from discs for so long, it seems rude.
I can't really think of reasons why the FO1/FO2 mods WOULDN'T work on a disc install. I'm almost 100% sure they would work, anon.
Speaking of discs, where did you get discs? I fucking hate how all of my PC game collection is digital. I would love some physical copies of my favorite games.

If the urge rises, remember how frequent enclave patrol are in that area. You encounter one every half second.
Speaking of POE, how is it? I hear people shit on it all the time, but I want to play it.

So what are some good mods that are not on the pastebin?

>>152409749
>Dozens of dead links all across the internet. It's sad, really.
It really is.
I'll have to pop in and try and get some answers as to what happened.
It might just be that the servers died or something.

>where did you get discs?
I was given 1 as a present for my birthday when I was a youngling and bought 2 sometime after that.
As for where to get them, I saw a three-in-one disc a few years ago that included Tactics this was before GOG and Steam releases and I bought it for a friend.
Its RRP was five fucking dollars.
The majority of the cover was red and didn't need to connect to the internet for the install, so you could still find it on ebay or something.
I've also seen older copies of the games in stores that sell older games.
I had one in my city called Dungeon Crawl, but they went online delivery only a few years back, maybe try looking for one of those sites.

New Vegas is the reason I have a Steam account.

>>152409885
>Speaking of POE, how is it? I hear people shit on it all the time, but I want to play it.

It's Baldur's Gate that someone (possibly Avellone) rubbed Planescape Torment's veiny dick all over, but it's nowhere near as good as PT.

So basically it's Baldur's Gate except you can't fuck the beefy ex-farmer bro4life.

>>152409220
I never use power armour, not because I don't like it, but because I can look cool without it.

That said, no shame in using it whenever possible.
Being a walking tank is the sickest.

>>152410636
I'd also like to know, so that I can add anything worthwhile to it.

Ahhh. Sadly I didn't get into the series until more recently. Thanks for the tips, though. I'll be on the lookout. I would love to buy those big as fuck boxes they originally came in I believe. They look fucking cool. Also,

Luckily for me, when I got the GOG version when it was free a few years back. Just thought, hey i might play this some day, and I didn't play it for years, but it was fucking worth it.
Also, If you have your Fallout 1 (or 2 for that matter) box nearby, I would love to see it.

I'd suggest the Paranoid Patriot or the Jewish Operator.

Ah, I don't handle that pastebin.
I'll try and track down a download link, but don't hold your breath.
If it's not found on the Nexus or LL, it's going to be hard to get a hold of.

Fantastic, I should have grabbed it then.

>Fallout 1 (or 2 for that matter) box nearby, I would love to see it.
I'll have a look, but I may only have my extra copies laying around.
The original FO1/2 boxes may be in storage, since I haven't had to install them for a long time and I like keeping them safe.

Yeah mugga

Wizards in BG/ID are only there to make everyone else killier with their rad support spells

The only time a Wizard has ever done real work for me in an Infinity Engine game was in ID2 against Chahopek, where I had all of his level 6 slots filled with Disintegrate and I held that piece of shit dragon down with my beefy dudes until he failed his save and turned into a pile of dust

And in retrospect, should have just Hasted anyway

So /cfog/ whats the one new vegas weapon mod that you use every playthrough?
Or do you go vanilla?

>>152416293

Vanilla has the Displacer glove and Ballistic Fist so why would I ever need mods

>>152416293
I have the FOOK/PN convergence, so I've got plenty of weapons to choose from and, as an Energy Weapons guy, I often find myself using the Wattz 2000 for extended periods once I manage to have it drop rarely or purchase it from the Van Graffs.
Occasionally, I'll use the Wattz 1000 for my sidearm, but I also frequent the Metal Blaster for laser shotgun purposes.

I also have a soft spot for the Holorifle.

>Metal Blaster

That thing was absurd in 3, is it the same with whatever mod adds it to NV? Might do an energy weapons run if so.

>>152417548
Yeah, it's fucking ridiculous.
It still shoots 9 lasers at a time, so you're pretty much guaranteed to disintegrate something, even with average Luck.

I don't know what specifically adds it, but I have the full FOOK/PN convergence in the pastebin which adds so much hence why it's in there and all you need to make it is a regular laser rifle AER9, not wattz and a laser crystal array part that you can buy from many merchants.
I bought mine from Cliff Briscoe and have since seen it on a few travelling merchants.
Not sure of the Repair/Science needed to craft it, as you can only see the recipe when you have the crystal array in your inventory, but it shouldn't be too high.

>>152417879
Oh so you don't just find it in the world or as its own weapon from a merchant, interesting. Think I'll finally give FOOK a go, cheers dude.

>>152418114
It may very well spawn, but what NPCs use Energy Weapons beside the BoS, Van Graffs and Fiends?
It's not too hard to get the array and you only need a regular laser rifle, so you can get it quite early on.

I'd highly recommend getting the full FOOK/PN convergence, it includes EVE, WME and WMX, so you get mods for everything, better looking Energy Weapons disintegrations and a bunch of other crap.
Truth be told, I can't imagine playing without it now.

>>152416293
I personally find weapon packs to be a little bit distracting. I would spend hours, finding/trying every single new weapon added, then afterwards feel a little empty inside and I don't feel continuing my playthrough. I would even delete the whole pack if I find one of the weapons faulty; animation or model wise.

I mostly go vanilla but if I had choose one, it would be Sharpnel's/Ahzteks weapon overhaul.

What are your favorite post-apocalyptic movies, wasters?
For me:
Road Warrior, A Boy And His Dog, The Book Of Eli

>>152425545
All good choices.
I'd say the Mad Max series new one doesn't count, A Boy and His Dog was my favourite movie ever for a few years, The Book of Eli actually amounted to a fun playthrough I did.
That movie "9", I think it was a Tim Burton movie was pretty neato.

Anyone seen Nuka Break?

>>152427139
I like Nuka Break, it was pretty great. I haven't watched "9" yet. I don't like Fury Road either.

What was your Book of Eli playthrough?

>>152427269
Nuka Break was a LOT better than I thought it would be.
I went in expecting some drivel riddled with memes, but got a quality story of some wasters.

I'd recommend watching 9, but don't expect some masterpiece.
It is quite enjoyable, though.

My Book of Eli playthrough amounted to me doing HH almost immediately to get the Bible at the end and always keeping it in my inventory.
Contrast set low/high so that seeing is harder not necessary, but I felt like it Perception maxed out, as he can smell/hear exceptionally, Tags were Melee with a fuckhuge bladed weapon, Guns with a sweet pistol and Survival for utilising whatever I could from the land. Extra points went into Barter to get better deals with whatever I scavenged.
Used an old black guy face from FCO, dressed him up like Eli, backpack and all.
I helped every little person who really needed it, but stayed away from the larger factions, their problems would get in the way of my mission.

It's technically possible.
You'll hate yourself and the game, but if you can collect enough spore plant spikes, flares, rocks and grenades to make it through the game

>>152430767
If RWD does nothing, you've either installed it wrong or something is conflicting with it but I doubt it
Do you have it one easy or something?
Project Nevada also has better than vanilla damage scaling, try using both.

The only other mod I'm using that could've messed with limb damage multipliers is Vicious Wastes, but I load RWD after it. Besides, I've tried disabling Vicious Wastes all together, but to no avail.

Do you have PN Rebalance (or PN Complete, I can't remember)

iirc one of them fucks with Endurance and level HP multipliers, possibly by default

I'm not quite sure what you're going for, there's like 10 different things to take into account when it comes to damage, so not every kill is going to be instant unless you increase your damage multipliers to the point of one-hitting everything.

Just remove all of the dialogue voices from the original game.

>>152435860
My best guess is that Project Nevada's damage modifiers have come into play along with RWD.
Regular PN feels very close to playing the vanilla game, so I need both of them.

I am playing an explosives character on New Vegas Ultimate Edition. First time I've really used explosives. What are some good explosives I can craft? What materials should I be gathering?

Following up on the subject of damage: is there a way to make DT capable of completely negating the damage? Wiki says that regardless of how high DT is, you are still going to receive 20% of incoming damage. Please, don't tell me it's hard-coded into the game.

>>152437656

>>152437656
Project Nevada has an option in its MCM menu to change how much damage gets through.
I'm not sure if you can completely negate it, I'll check now.

>>152451820

Oftentimes, the actor IS the character.

Would have been ace.

>George Miller is the soul of the movie
Too bad Gibson is the soul of the series.

>>152451938
>halfway through
if by halfway you mean 20 years im okay with that

>>152452002
No, that's just being silly.

I'll rephrase for your deficient brain then.
It would be like replacing Radcliffe after three movies.

>>152451938
The "series"? The first movie, well, I actually did like it quite a lot, but it's a very weird one, it doesn't really have that muh in common with what most people consider "Mad Max". Second movie is great, and FR is pretty much the same movie, only done mostly better. Third has some really cool elements, like Barter Town, it actually feels the most "Fallout" to me, but then you have kids and all that crap, eh.

And in 2, Max is not a central character, I dunno how people miss it and complain about Max in FR not being central character. That's how these movies work! He's kind of an outsider, and the really interesting stuff happens around him. I mean, he's even duped in 2 by the people he helps by "protecting" a truck full of sand.

The cool stuff about FR isn't really Max, or Furiosa, it's the whole savage culture of the wastes, Immortan Joe with his god complex, the subtle corruption of language, painted war boys suffering from leukemia, worshiping engines and cars and looking to die glorious deaths since that's the only positive resolution to their miserable lives. They're antagonists, but you actually understand what happened to them to make them like that. The practical effects are great, the cars are real and huge and great and get trashed on screen, there is no exposition about pretty much anything of the above - you just get it by watching the movie... It's so well made.

>>152452035
Holy shit. This board is just faggots with nostalgia glasses on.

>>152452334
For wanting consistency?
Fuck off, Hines.

They could have easily made it their own movie, but without getting Max back for it, they're just using the title of "Mad Max" to make sure people see it.
It's deceitful, disingenuous and a really cunting thing to do.

>>152452035

>>152452489
Overrated or not, he is Mad Max.
Not using the same actor is just using people's fond memories of the older features to get them to watch their shit movie.

>>152452436
>For wanting consistency?
There's barely ANY consistency between the first three movies.
>They could have easily made it their own movie
That's exactly what George Miller did, he made his own movie, he made the movie he always wanted to make, now with some real budget. And it was glorious.
>>152452553
>people's fond memories of the older features
Yeah, those fond memories of Beyond Thunderdome, lol.

>>152452657
>There's barely ANY consistency between the first three movies.
So then it's okay to throw any semblance of consistency away?
Again, fuck off, Hines.

>That's exactly what George Miller did
If it was EXACTLY what he did, then it wouldn't have been called Mad Max.
He was only using the name to get people to see his shitty movie.
Sorry I don't like Bald Waifu and Car in a Desert: the movie.

>Yeah, those fond memories of Beyond Thunderdome, lol.
Are you implying no one ever liked it?
Because, regardless of whether or not you did, there are scores of people who do.

>>152452798
>So then it's okay to throw any semblance of consistency away?
There wasn't any "semblance" of consistency. Fucking Gyro Captain, lol. It's just a myth of Mad Max, told by a different storyteller.
>then it wouldn't have been called Mad Max
It's his movie, his vision. Actors are irrelevant, Hardy did fine at being a lynchpin around which the world revolves.
>Are you implying no one ever liked it?
I'm not implying anything, I'm STATING that it's widely considered to be an inferior sequel. People enjoyed fucking Twilight, doesn't make it a good book or movie.

>>152452436

>Actors are irrelevant
To you.
Did you not see or hear peoples issue with it when it came out?
They hated that it didn't have Max in it and then were constantly called sexist if they didn't want to watch it because of your precious dyke.
>Hardy did fine
Completely subjective.

>Really?
Yes, it is.
It was a shit movie that couldn't stand on its own merit, so it needed the name of an older title to get it along.
Do you think Star Wars episode 7, hell, even the prequel trilogy, would have done as well as they did without the Star Wars name?
Fuck no, they wouldn't have.
>How do you think it will sell?

>No wonder you need a hugbox
Care to explain?

>>152453201
>There was, it was just Max doing Max things.
that's not what "consistency" means, are you stupid
>They hated that it didn't have Max in it
Actually most people on 4chan who shitposted against it did so because it had a women character (wow, it's not like Road Warrior had Warrior Woman or whatever). It was a giant skub-vs-antiskub shitpile with feminists and antifeminists blabbering about something that is a pretty minor part of the movie.
>It was a shit movie

There was some consistency, but having less than desired is not reason enough to throw out all of it.
You can't have Max doing Max things with Max.
A replacement actor could have easily been another character, just say the damn movie was just set in the Mad Max universe.
Or better yet, named it something else, distanced itself from Mad Max and tried to stands on its own merit.
Oh wait, then no one would have seen it.
>most people on 4chan
I'm not just talking about on 4chan, I'm talking about all over the internet, on television, in real life.

That's how they advertised it, after all.
"The ultimate femenist movie", they called it.

I can't disagree with you too much here, except Dredd was better.
We've been fucked for good action for a while now.

>>152453701
You're so hung up on a personality you're missing an amazing movie because it doesn't have it. It's like, do you think people here love New Vegas because it had some old BIS staff working on it and not because it's an amazingly well made RPG with lots of attention to detail and player agency? Because it's the latter for most. Fallout 3 isn't bad because none of the original staff didn't work on it; Fallout 3 is bad because the people who did work on it weren't competent enough to make a good RPG.
>I'm talking about all over the internet, on television, in real life.
I don't watch TV, don't really visit social sites other than 'chans and my 2 IRL friends liked Fury Road.
>Dredd was better
BUT IT HAS NO STALLONE!!!! STALLONE IS DREDD!!! HOW DARE YOU!!!

Also eh, it's very obviously cheaper than FR... it has its charm though. Loved the Robocop throwbacks and vibes, loved the violence, the soundtrack... Such a well done movie, it's a shame I initially dismissed it as a "yet another pointless remake". Almost did it with Fury Road too, but then the amount of positive comments on 4chan convinced me to see it. I remember reading "it's better than RW" comment and saying to myself "no way, this guy is a total pleb". Then I saw it and everything just worked for me.

Anyway, Raid/Raid 2 were good, but they were... just actions, lacked fun sci-fi/post-apo worldbuilding Dredd and Fury Road had. The action choreography was great, though.

You know, you're not wrong.
I might have to give it a go after all.
>I don't watch TV
Ah, well that's how it was marketed.
My IRL friend loves Mad Max far more than I and he hated it.
Stallone was a shit Dredd, who was a pre-existing character before the movies, but I see what you're driving at.

The special effects, namely the slo-mo, were ace.
They're making a direct sequel.

>Raid/Raid 2
I do not know what these are.

Anyway, I'll give FR a go sometime.

Also, what's the best way to make it look nice without ENB's. I know there's a visual guide on the pastebin as well, but I hear there's other methods to putting those mods together/leaving some mods out entirely that makes the game look way much comfier.

I don't have a source right now, but check around on /co/ or the wikipedia page.

>At the 2016 Denver Comic Con, Urban was doing a Q&A when someone asked about the possibility of Dredd 2, to which he replied that a sequel is “…in development“, according to ScienceFiction.com.

>What should be made clear, however, is that by “development” they mean that a story is being developed. Once that story is figured out, that’s when they can approach various studios to determine interest. Again, it’s unclear if they want to go for a feature length film or instead head down the original series route, such as Marvel is doing with “Daredevil” and “Luke Cage”.

Hmmm. I won't lie, I wouldn't mind Dredd series if they manage to keep it like the movie - gritty, fast, with Dredd being a man behind the helmet, cold and not overacting. A real movie sequel would be great, though.

It seems pretty clear that the creator started with Fallout 3
"... I thought the world was post apocalyptic 1950s but its actually 2281."
"Vault-Tec Boy is the mascot."

I really don't get why everyone tries so hard to like Fallout 3 when it's still badly designed on a fundamental level in every sense of the word that the good copypasta it's referencing only scratched the surface of its problems that it happens to have.

>>152459382

If you wanna get Jury Rigging as soon as possible, going for Repair isn't a bad choice on any point. I personally just use the fuck out of the skill books to get as much stats boosts as I can in the most general sense.

Survival isn't too worth getting tagged unless you're planning on boosting it above 55, which is somewhat useful in the long run as Sunset Sarsaparilla's restorative effects can be stacked to crazy amounts to utterly heal past HP damage like it ain't jack shit. You'll have the H20 stuff to worry about, but by the time you hit the upper levels of Survival, you'll be on your way to making shit like Desert Salad, Wasteland Omelets, and a whole lot of crazy as fuck drinks to basically make you a God of the Wastes that can utterly shrug off the needs of Hardcore like it ain't shit.

>>152460025 also has a good point, as EFC clusters are fucking crazy overpowered, as well as various other craftable explosives.

It's really up to personal preference. I always go Explosives/Barter/Repair in my "normal" playthroughs, as that covers all the bare necessities that I'll need for early game outside of guns, which can be easily leveled up. Just do you on Hardcore and keep an tab out on your shit, and never buy in bulk.

Try to also limit the stuff you constantly pick up as well. It's hell going into Hardcore as a guy who picks up just about anything that's useful to me.

>>152460738
PB is for Fallout 3, NVR for New Vegas. They're from the same creator.

Get rid of FCO and get NVR ASAP for NV.

Yes, just install FCO then NVR, and only activate the NVR plugins. You can disable or even delete FCO plugins, the mod just needs the textures/models. Use Fallout Mod Manager or anything like it.

Those two look really sweet but are beyond my capabilities. What are the best explosives I can craft at a low level?

The goal on this playthrough is to gather resources and craft as long as it's beneficial. Problem is I have never crafted in New Vegas and I do not know where to begin.

>>152468018
You ever thought of being a Ranger?

>>152470256

>>152469882
Eh, barely crafted anything in NV myself, but I guess you might try crafting powder charges, seeing as how dynamite is easy to come by.
But even then there isn't much point in, because you can easily gather around 20 frag mines by simply following the main quest (i.e. Primm -> Nipton -> Novac -> Repconn).

>>152470478
You know, if you were serving you'd be halfway to general by now

>>152469882
Most of the explosives that can be crafted without the mad bomber perk are mines, and will require sensor modules. Satchel charges are probably the best thing you can craft at a low level.

Goddamn, the Stealth Suit Mk II is so cool. I never go why they didn't just make it black though. The white doesn't make a lot of sense for a stealth suit. The voice is okay because it directly stimulates the small bones of your ear. No one but you will be able to hear it. It's also cute.

So I just downloaded New vegas, and its going to be the first fallout game I will play.

I'm reading the OP and I'm wondering which mods to install. I got all DLCs and I'll be running it on a i5-6600k/8gb ram/gtx970 machine. My screen is 144hz, so I'm looking at keeping that framerate.

Any recommended graphical mods that won't kill my framerate?, or gameplay mods?. I just want to upgrade the graphics a bit maybe.

>>152477076
You shouldn't install any mods on the first playthrough, other than a few quality of life changes. It's best to experience the game in vanilla, before modding the game.


I recommend using Mod Organizer to install mods, and following the guideline to install the next couple of mods I suggest:
New Vegas Anti Crash (NVAC) <- anti crash tool

Yukichigai Unofficial Patch (YUP) <- to this day, still updated and non-bullshitting bug fixes

4GB New Vegas <- more RAM for your game

New Vegas Script Extender (NVSE) <- non-essential yet, but just get it, it'll always be important for mods later


I might've forgotten a few mods.

>>152474073
The only decent outfit piece in NV is mercenary grunt outfit. Wish it had non-clipping bulletproof vest, though.

>>152477076
Pretty much just do what >>152477669 this guy says. Maybe get NVSR too.
And if you like NV, then play 1 and 2 after.
