Fallout 3 mods

I only have DarfUI, MMM, Enhanced weather, faster run and backpack thus far.

I'll have a fiddle!

Out of interest is the DLC worth my time or should I just move on to New Vegas after F3?


Firstly, i loved all of the dlc! Also, some mods actually require all of the dlc. In fact, i think most do especially the bigger mods. Pretty sure **** and MMM do actually.

FOOK2 and MMM definitely need a compatability patch to work together. This is best achieved by going straight to the **** website to download as the one on the nexus is out of date.
Out of date Compatability patches will almost certainly cause the game to crash.

Here is the site to dl **** patches-

http://www.fookunity.com/forum/index.php?

The most up to date cp's are included in the signature of the member BAN

btw the most up to date version of **** 2 is 1.2 open beta and MMM is R6.1

Here are some more screenies

With Lucy West Follower. Also, Fallout Reanimated is shown in the way he aims
And the Norinco chambered Assault rifle, part of Underground Hideout mod




EVE, part of FOOK2. The explosions are much better with this on



The Casino in Cantebury Commons. Part of the Overhaul.


Being attacked bt a Yao Guai. Retextured by MMM, look much more fierce now



Came acroos a Supermutant Overlord here. He Very nearly kiiled me.



Lucy wasn't so lucky though:(



I have the nights incredibly dark thanks to Fellout.




But nightvision helps a lot. With both **** and FWE, nightvision is built in to Power Armour. I don't even think there is nightvision in vanilla




In retrospect, i should have given Lucy West more than just a fllicknife!!

There isn't a big black box around your moon at night :( I wonder why mine has got one, is the moon part of Fellout?


I'm not totally sure if Fellout changes the moon.

You could always try this High res moon I have not tried it, but it does not mention any conflict with Fellout

There is also this- High Res Night Sky. Again, i have not used it, but i probably will. Also does not mention any conflict with Fellout.

Even if there is a conflict it will probably be easily resolved by loading them after Fellout.


EDIT- Don't bother with these, i just tried them and it looks worse!

Here are a few more screenshots:)

First off. Here's the pipboy. I haven't explored half of those locations so far!:eek:




This is Fort Freeway, a player home which i have used.




Here are a few screenshots showing off Streetlights. There are no streetlights in Vanilla, because the nights are so bright.
This really is one of my favourite mods, greatly enhances nighttime during the game. Especially with darker nights on.

Again, this is included in FOOK2 or you can download it seperately







With something going down in the Mall

LOL. Looking back at those screenshots, i was thinking that it looks nowhere near as good as i remember it. Especially the view distance. Then i realised that the other day i replaced my INI file and forgot to add some lines and change some things. I have now done this and it looks much better. Textures are much sharper and View distance has been doubled.

If anyone is interested, there is a great guide to improving graphics or performance here- http://www.tweakguides.com/Fallout3_1.html

Alternatively you can download a custom INI from the Nexus, there are loads on there
 
I'm struggling to get up and running in the game atm. looked around megaton, but I haven't found a place to sleep (that doesn't show red). My health is pretty low since the guards in the vault kicked the crap outta me. Tried to go to the supa mart, and the school but I keep getting owned by multiple raiders. one or two might be ok but there are 5 outside the mart.

Presumably the FWE has kicked up the difficulty or I'm trying to run before I can walk =P Still only level 2.

I need some health !!! :p

FWE massively increases the difficulty, but you should be able to configure it with the ingame menu to turn it down a bit, at least until you get to a higher level.

You can sleep in Moriarty's in Megaton , but it is a bit expensive early on, and you can only sleep there once. Alternatively with the More2Megaton mod, there is also a hotel in megaton which is very cheap and you can sleep there for a week:)
 
I figured out that black box is something to do with Enhanced Weather & Snow, particularly the moonshadow.dds file in textures. (The sky & Moon comes from Enhanced Weather & Snow)...
There's nothing I can do about it though, I don't think. I tried the above HR sky and moon, and I prefer the ones from EW&S.
 
It is very strange, If it's possible would you be able to upload your sky folder for me under the Fallout 3 data? I'd just replace what I'm using, see if it fixes it, it's fine if you can't though. :D
Also is that the standard laser pistol in your above screenshot, I have EWE and EVE and none of them have blue lazers :( Damn my method of modding.

I added the streetlights mod also, and they're awesome!

I can upload it, but i will ahve to check if i have any other textures in there from other mods. (not that i am sure it will make a difference) I'll try in a bit.

That laser pistol is Colonel Autumns AP Pistol. It is a unique weapon that you only get at the end of the main story. (thought it is just the normal laser pistol with higher damage) It has a laser sight on it, which was added by Weapons Mod Kits which allows you to mod every weapon in the game. You can buy weapons mod kits from some traders or loot them from some dead people

Every weapon texture is replaced and every weapon is renamed by FOOK2. Also, every ammo is changed so that guns rarely share ammo. For example, in vanilla both the Sniper Rifle and the Hunting rifle use .308, but eith ****, because more ammo is added, they use different types. Makes ammo more scarce basically. Good feature.

They are really essential if you have the darker nights from Fellout. The effects during the night, especially around the mall are brilliant.

I can't see a thing without them on at night. That picture of the Super-Duper Mart would be completely black without the Streetlight mod!

Kinda off topic but are any of you running this on Windows 7? F03 (clean install) Crashes for me on launch :( works fine on xp and vista :(
 
Any recommend somewhere for a good guide on how to install most mods?


I'm not really sure about guides tbh. When you download any mod from Fallout Nexus, in the mod description there is an Installation instructions bit.
Most mods are very simple to install. It is just a case of putting the files in the right folder.

The thing that you need guiding on is compatability and load order, but there is plenty of info on that on the site as well:)

Fallout Nexus has some great forums as well, there is probably a guide on there somewhere

Here you go for a start - http://www.fallout3nexus.com/articles/article.php?id=60
