What happened to the crows?

Post » Tue Feb 01, 2011 10:21 pm

The title says it all, I remember when I did my vanilla run through of NV seeing crows fairly often. Now I never see them(not counting the ones flying in the sky).

I want the birds back! I thought they added a lot of atmosphere and it was one of the few passive creatures in the game.

Edit: The FNV wiki says they don't respawn, is there a mod the makes them respawn?

I haven't seen crows since I passed Nipton. Always assumed that was the way the game was by default.

Not crows, http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Raven :wink_smile:

From the wiki: "Ravens are most numerous in the early areas of the game, becoming more and more scarce the further the player travels from Goodsprings, Primm and Nipton."

I thought they patched out a lot of the ravens because of playability.

Well that svcks, can someone confirm this? I have spent a lot of time around Primm recently doing the Buffo Steve mod and that Bounties and I never seen them. My in game clock is around 101 hours. And I am at level 21 or 22.

Edit: Well I just checked that link and it said Ravens don't respawn, so I guess that means once they fly off that's its. How lame. Is there a mod for Ravens to respawn?

They aren't actors, so I don't think it's possible.

They are creatures and, should be able to be set to respawn. I've done some playing around with no luck! "Encounter Zones" don't seem to work the same as they did in FO3, after setting up a custom "Zone" with what I thought was a one day respawn, my effort fell on its face.

I like the ravens, I've even used them as an encounter in my upcoming "NVInteriors Project". I was hoping they would come back after several days so, I'm going to have to look into this further.

They are disabled and marked for delete by their script after the fly away animation plays.
