    Fallout 4 PC retail has a 18.8 GB Steam download

    I am one of +650,000 subscribers on the Exede Satellite (Viasat 1) with a medium grade connection to the Internet and a 25Gb per month data allowance. It is free data from 12 AM to 5 Am. Having said that, it still took 4 and a half hours to download 20Gb (5.2Gb DVD + 20Gb Steam download=...

    How do I make a patch?

    ...then it is easy. When you load the GECK, -select the plugin files that have the armors you wish to change -do not set any of them as the active file, -make the desired changes to the armors, -then save -it will ask you for a new name for your plugin, enter the new name and save. When...

    How do I make a patch?

    ... hmm. a quick question, but a somewhat complicated procedure. In short, yes and no. When you create the new file, it will contain the changes to the armor records that you modified, and by putting it last, or nearly last, in the load order, it will supersede the data in the Project Nevada...

    How do I make a patch?

    Do you have the GECK tool? Open it, select the FalloutNV.esm, and the Project Nevada file with the armors in them, make the DR adjustments to the armors, then save as [yourfilename]. The new [yourfilename].esp will have the FalloutNV.esm and the Project Nevada.esm as its required masters. When...

    Why Do You Enjoy Fallout 3

    Its not a bad story idea, it could use some more work, all first drafts do, but it has some good ideas and it is a complete plot line. What if a character was trapped in one of the bizarre Vault-Tec experiments? Although the Vault experiments were not intentionally lethal, they were quite...

    Why Do You Enjoy Fallout 3

    I think it is just funny how you twist everything I write into the most negative way possible and absolutely refuse to see beyond your own preconceptions. It is truly amusing, you're acting, right? Playing "Devil's Advocate"? To answer the misconceptions: 1) No, it does not have to be a...

    Why Do You Enjoy Fallout 3

    So what? Sorry, but ... The Deimos mod was but a short example of what could be done, part of it takes place immediately after, or during the Great War. Yes, it is a brief 1 hour long mod, written and created by one person, used as a small illustration, of what can be accomplished with a little...

    The misunderstanding that is the "Enclave"

    Slightly on, slightly off topic is the Fo3 mod series in my signature. It elaborates on who the "shadow government" is and it's ties to the ENCLAVE, it's not quite canon, but draws on it heavily. Parts 1 and 2 are by Firelady and her mods (outdated) can be found on the Nexus. Part 3 used to be...

    Why Do You Enjoy Fallout 3

    Seriously? Ever play the New Vegas game mod D.E.I.M.O.S. by Alexander J Velicky ? All it would take is some creative writing, hell, you could create such a story now with the currently available mod resources.

    Need some modding help

    ... this caught my eye, but 1) way too many mods and 2) use LOOT found here: http://loot.github.io/ and 3) there is a newer FOMM here: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/54991/? For a really enjoyable experience, I would suggest this page*...

    Why Do You Enjoy Fallout 3

    That part, what you just said. I have always been interested in what that experience would have been like. That and what the Fallout-verse was like just before the Great War. (Tranquility Lane does not count) If they made a game about life just before the war, during the war and immediately...

    The misunderstanding that is the "Enclave"

    You are right about it not being the same USA that we know in our timeline, but in the Fallout-verse, things continued from a branch period just after WWII where it was just the same USA, the people in that timeline wouldn't know anything about our timeline, ... ah man, this timeline stuff gives...

    The misunderstanding that is the "Enclave"

    Thank You! My bad for not searching the Vault and using it as a source. I used the Fallout Wikia only because I have read it from cover to cover, so to speak*, again, my bad. Now I have more reading to catch up on. Hopefully, I didn't bring up too many inaccuracies. My point was to show that...

    The misunderstanding that is the "Enclave"

    A very well thought out dissertation of one of the many inconsistencies within the Fallout-verse. Keep in mind that while there are quite a few, I will just stick to the ENCLAVE here. First, I should mention that there is an "Official Canon", a "Van Buren Canon" and the "Fallout Bible" written...

    Why Do You Enjoy Fallout 3

    I sincerely apologize X12, I hope you saw that I tried to twist the subject back on topic at the end of my digression, again, I apologize for getting side-tracked. Yamu: I concur with those statements, and I would like to add, the sub quest "Tranquility Lane", although it was part of the main...
