Love this mod. Been using it for a while now. I won't play F2 without it. I make my own little tweaks here and there (I still think the Gatling Laser is a little "meh"... it should be comparable to the Vindicator imo). arcadeguy, you can download the fallout item editor and change...

I think Power Armor itself was fine (maybe it could use a few little boosts/enchantments) but the problem was that the other armors were too good. That coupled with the lack of DR mixed with DT (without mods) made it so there really was little reason to choose T-51b over Combat Armor Mk.II. In...

Always the Gatling Laser. That and a suit of T-51b is what Fallout is all about for me.

I agree on the Gauss/YC-186 route. Max charge ammo with a sneak attack critical and you don't even have to hit them in the head... kills most in one shot.

Give this mod a try: http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/35088/? I used it, but on top of numerous other mods I didn't notice much difference. However, NV has few spawn points and some of them seem to be set regardless. It did seem to take away leveled lists from vendors, so you...

PC or console? Either way, I would go ahead and start a new game, and make sure you aren't using too many save slots. I know that can be an issue. Your other bugs seem uncommon, after a quick google search.

Some reading on the perception mechanics in FO:3, which I feel is the same as the one used in NV. http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=46662&sid=cf876e9605abf2357a091ffe7b41604b It's only basis is to modify energy weapons, explosives and the other derived stats, as well as a...

I agree for the most part on your NV based stats, but with a few points of interest. Perception. In NV perception only gives acces to a few perks and lets radar blips come up sooner. AFAIK it doesn't affect aiming or accuracy in VATS at all (which is mind boggling and nerfs PER in NV)...

Ahh... well maybe next time it will help. I was always a little underwhelmed at the modding backup/community for FO:1. However, I think the concise nature of the game itself (plot, player progression, etc..) strengthened it.

This is why nobody likes to come to these forums anymore and has a bad taste in their mouth because of us old school Fallout guys. I'm not a big fan of the new Fallout games, but I have to say that no post in this thread seemed to say anything about which Fallout game was being discussed. From...

Check to see if you have the patch in the folder first. Most mods make changes to the patch file. If it isn't there, the mods generally don't work.

I had the exact same problem on my last playthrough. It would not play that one video, for whatever reason. I found that turning off the high-res patch (uniinstalling) solved the issue. I then re-installed it and had no further problems. Hope this helps.

Most of the companion problems stem from horrible, horrible AI. (pulling out a melee weapon somehow makes enemies easier to detect?) The biggest problem I have with NV is the horrible AI. Naked fiends run head first into Gatling Laser fire with pool sticks. Right... Your companion's...

Going by the Fallout Wiki, the Tesla Cannon doesn't fall into any cateogory covered by the repair lists under the Jury Rigging Perk. That being said, it would be useful to keep weapon repair kits handy. Of course the wiki can be wrong.
