New Vegas Mod Detectives #1 : Fallout: New Vegas

» Fri Feb 18, 2011 9:56 pm

Is there a mod that shortens the distance at which you see locations on your compass (the little triangles) but widens the area of discovering them (so you don't have to stand right in front of the door for example). I think I had something like this for FO3, was it included in FWE perhaps?

Any mods which simply allow you to bundle dynamite together with duct tape?

Or get more than one use out of duct tape as well?

I don't know about the first one, but here's another use for duct tape - http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=37520

Have anybody seen a mod that allows to display hair when hat/helmet is worn. It is quit frustrating to have a character with long flowing hair have it all disappear once you put on cowboy hat.

I am looking for a solution to this issue as well. I have such beautiful hair. It is a shame that when I put on a combat helmet I'm as bald as Popeye and twice as pretty.

Has anyone made a mod that stops vanilla companions from doing stupid things, such as strafing in front of me while I'm trying to shoot. Standing directly in front of me during combat and crouching at my feet while in combat? No one likes a 40mm Incendiary Grenade to the back of the head, surely. It's reminds me of those annoying pedestrians who only walk behind your car when you put your reverse lights on. Stupid people.

If not, would it be a simple thing to make or is it just one of those hard-coded things labelled, "Things NPC's have to do to irritate the Player." :laugh:

I swear I've seen this before, but is there a mod that allows for Rex and ED-E to carry faction armor without them dropping it? Seem silly that they drop considering they aren't aligned with any faction and they can't even equip armor anyways.

This is a simple fix you can do yourself with FNVEdit or GECK. Find the offending headgear and uncheck "hair" box.

Are there any decoration assitant mods yet?

is there a mod that replaces the planes with better/realistic looking planes?

Excellent. Thank you. :celebration: Now I won't have to worry about having to carry all of that rare faction armor in my inventory and simply shove it into my portable storage pack, otherwise known as ED-E.

Edit: Got another one. I don't believe there is a fix for the weapon mods that decrease weight not working properly but I might as well ask to see if anyone has seen one. It isn't in any major bug fix mod I've seen.

Do we have a Groovetron type mod yet for poses?

» Sat Feb 19, 2011 4:49 am

I doubt something like this has been published, but since this topic is designed to help users find certain mods, I might as well give it a shot.

I'm looking for a mod which completely disables respawning fruits/vegetables/nuts from plants so you only get to pick each plant once and only once. Sounds rather simple, but at the same time I reckon the demand for something like that probably isn't exactly high.

Is there a mod that adds something to the Pipboy to summon your followers when they get lost? I realize you can use the console but it would be nice if there was a button to push to bring them to you.
Thanks.

Where is that courier clothes mod that was in the works a few weeks ago? it was "99% done".

Alien Epoxy was what Weapon Repair Kits are now. Here's one for armors: http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36744

http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=37572 has a "Warp a companion to me" command.

Is there a mod that changes the ballistic fist? Something that alters the impact graphics to tone downs the noise and smoke it gives off?

Any Grenade throwing mods?
One of my must-have mods from the original Fallout was the mod where you could just press G, and he would automatically throw a grenade even if he was wearing another weapon.
It made combat 1000x times more fun.
Is there such a mod for New Vegas? Please tell me there is :-)

I believe that the satchels mod had a ranger coat, it just has some clipping issues:

Are there any lockpick mods besides Real Time Lockpicking and Hacking (the current release has some issues)? I really like Zumbs' Overhauled Real-Time Security for Fallout 3, but it doesn't seem to be a version for New Vegas, right? I'd really like to get rid of the minigame somehow.

wasnt there a mod that used up AP for actions like fighting, running, etc?

» Sat Feb 19, 2011 6:29 am

Is there a mod that removes bodies periodically? I'm playing Wasteland Defense, and all the bodies piling up are becoming a hassle.

Is there a mod that lets you recruit the Khans, Brotherhood or Enclave remenant for the independant ending? The wiki seems to say the only options are Legion, NCR or death/ignore and that just bothers me.
