    Interesting take on raiders. From a "US person's" standpoint, all pistols are cheap guns. Also, keep in mind that since practically anyone in the US can own a gun, it's entirely normal to see the occasional uzi (or a 10mm sub-machine gun) or assault rifle. Raiders could have (in all likelihood...

    I guess I fall into the first category -- luck out. Been here for 20 years on a work sponsored visa. Many of my other friends got a permanent visa, first through work, but they all end up married. I had noticed that and was surprised no one had ever come out with a mod to just remove the "Mr...

    I think I was wrong about Sticky--he equips hats with DR2 or better. Sorry to make you waste time! Thanks very much for taking my opinion into consideration on the Big Guns -- I appreciate it! Big Guns is my favorite weapon skill, closely followed by Explosives (yet I always level weapons...

    Thank you very much for the difficulty recommendation -- I will change it to "normal." One thing I should have stated about the Missile Launcher's locking system is that it only works if you lock on to the target in VATS. Without VATS, it just dumb fires it in a straight line. BTW... you know...

    I wouldn't worry about the confusion of Rocket VS RockIT. Moira's just crazy like that ;) My professional opinion is that the Missile Launcher with its guided projectiles be accurately named "missile launcher." Incendiary Rocket Propelled Grenade Launchers?! It'll be bad getting hit with...

    Like you, I love a good challenge as long as the playing field is "relatively" equal within realistic reason. Basically, the biggest difference between your games and mine being that I take a perk every level (my reward for playing, as well as a quick way to test out new perks). I play CB with...

    Sorry to get technical, but the correct term for the Fallout 3 weapon actually is "missile launcher" because the projectiles *having* a tracking system makes them missiles with the ability to change trajectory, track, *and hit* their targets. As you know, they seem to lock on to metal targets...

    Really like that Strength requirements needed for weapons, 4 X tougher merchants, and CAPS WEIGHT! Yes yes yes! Wow I'll have to start a new game so I don't feel like I'm cheating with the carrying around 2000 caps all the time ;) Regarding robots (all, including followers) the weapon is...

    Thanks for making so much optional! I hope it's an easy adjustment and that it doesn't create any instability. As a long time gamer I know that having more options makes for a better experience than having anything different from the original "locked in." Explosives Expert is 50, Ammo Expert...

    Is it an optional change you'll be able to change in settings? Anyhow I'd like to try it out. I play with the pip-glove removed by default now. I have yet to get repair skill to the requirement for making mines but am working on it. I am enjoying myself though! By the way I'm pretty sure...

    WOw amazing I have such terrible luck finding bobby pins with LUCK 7! ;) You're right about DelayDLC--No notification of quest whatsoever unless you get within range of *and* listen to transmission. Very immersive! Great match for Fallout. Actually on my first FO3 playthru I missed "trouble on...

    The reticle looks great! Much better than the default. I normally have reticle turned off though ;) Can it be optional to have the reticle to only display if the weapon is drawn? If Triage is implemented, Amplified Cripple Effects compliment it nicely--it makes sense to have a speed reduction...

    Apology for the brief response yesterday -- combination of very little free time+wanting to install/play the new version, which I was able to do a bit yesterday. In response to your others posts: •The thing I like about FOMM is that it comes with Archive Invalidation Activated, FO3 Edit, and...

    Hey there thanks for the update and great news! I hate to ask a simple question but, to update, merely uninstall the old mod with FOMM, then install the new one, right? Nothing special needed like dropping your entire inventory into a toolbox, or waiting inside a few days? I want to start a...

    Thanks for the 'Startquest CB00Install' command tip -- I'll do that every time prior starting up. I use HDR lighting enabled by default (that's what you're referring to, right?). I think that the weather looks different in a lot of places -- in a good way! I don't have any weather mods...

    I hope v1.5 is released pretty soon because I am looking forward to breaking down that ammo to use for making gunpower (and landmines!). Also, is CBD okay to use with mods that add something to the HUD, such as time display? I check time probably a few times a day and just want to use a mod...

    I take my grenade components directly from the Online Army Study Guide so that means we need: Body Filler Fuse Assembly Body can be spare parts (or scrap metal), filler is scrap metal and gunpowder, fuse assembly is motorcycle handbreak+conductor+bobby pin. Mine's need the sensor...

    Ah ok thanks for clarifying -- I need to take another look at what happens when choosing to remove theglove. I did not pay close enough attention to the text and misunderstood, thinking it'd remove the whole thing. If you remove the pipboy glove when you wear another armor that has gloves, such...

    The face geometry and race command work as intended of course but interestingly it changes the Lone Wanderer to an almost albino whiteness -- which makes perfect sense as he's lived his whole life out of sunlight ;) I also felt like FO2 was like an expansion pack with a few cool gameplay...

    I agree 100% with your assessment of FNV. It was truly a let down for me because I started the game truly wanting to like it and with happy expectations. The fact is, I did not feel like I was playing Fallout, and I only want to play Fallout. I like the original a lot! FO2 was just mildly...
