Sneeze Reset - Fallout NV
By A.J. in Modders Resources
The only workaround I found to reset the engine automatic pickidle when it glitches and stops working after a script call, conceiled behind a funny sneeze. This is mainly intended as proof of concept for animators and modders in general who suffer of this glitch (i.e. this and others on Nexus).
M/F random sneeze sounds added for fun. The slight graphic glitch during the sneeze seems hardcoded and impossible to be bypassed (not the shake effect, that's an IMOD added by me. I mean the camera flipping 180 degrees very fast for 2 times). Can be invoked in game via X key held for a couple of seconds. Requires NVSE version 4+.

Flags - Placeable Map Markers
-----------------
Description
-----------------
Flags is a small mod I did the past days using some map marker functions of Lutana plugin. If you own the miscellaneous item "Flag pole" (introduced by this mod), then a new option under the Apparel pipboy section will appear, named "[Place flag]". This option grants you the possibility to plant a flag on the ground. A new map marker will appear in that location and you will be asked to put a name for it. To avoid excessive spam of markers, there's a condition which says that another map marker can't be closer than 3000 units.
After your flag is on the ground, you will be able to interact with it, clicking on its pole. You will be able to rename the map marker, change the icon on the pipboy, change the banner on the flag (see below), remove the flag and check how many flags are avaiable.
To obtain flag poles, you can craft them at the workbench, but the recipe will appear only if you own the book "You're C.A.R.P.E.N.T.E.R." in your inventory.
Everything you need to start using this mod is located south of Goodspring, inside a buried building, near the place where Barton Thorn asks you to kill geckos. However there's a "Cheat Trunk" that you can enable via MCM or console, it will spawn a chest with all the items in front of Chet's shop in Goodspring.
(note: after enabling the cheat flag, if the chest doesn't spawn, it could be necessary to save / reload or fast travel somewhere / back)
--------------
Location
--------------
An unmarked buried building south of Goodspring, near the place where you need to kill geckos for Barton Thorn. It was once a workshop used by carpenters to craft things. In this place you can achieve the book "You're C.A.R.P.E.N.T.E.R." which allows you to craft the new items. If you go there by night, it's very dark and somewhat scary. If you have a follower, probably it won't follow you down there, they'll remain outside and laugh because you felt down inside the building. Not a big deal, it's just a couple of rooms, you probably will remain alone for no more than 25 seconds, don't be sad!
--------------
Banners:
--------------
When you first plant a flag, it will have a black banner, but you can change it choosing from a small list of factions. It is mainly aesthetic, but it could be used to gain an extra buff if you enabled the Buff option inside the MCM. Different faction >>> different buff.
On MCM there's also an option to visualize the buff effect: the ones affected by the buff of the flag will light on - it was mainly to test who and when someone is affected.
The player will always receive the buff, no matter what faction he is friend or what. But the near npcs, they will receive a buff concerning their factions. So for example if there's a war between NCR and Legion, and you put a Legion flag, the Legion characters in range will receive an extra buff.
The buff range has a radius of 2000 units and it leasts about 30 seconds when it's active. It won't stack (i.e. you can't take a buff then change fast the flag so you take another buff)
List of factions and relative buffs:
> Black flag - No buff
> Brotherhood of Steel - Increase Fire / Poison / Rad resistance by 15
> Great Khan - +25 Damage Resistance; +10 Action Points
> Legion - +1 Agility; +1 Perception; +5 Melee Damage
> NCR - +1 Endurance; +1 Strenght; +5 Damage Threshold
> Followers of Apocalypse - +1 Intelligence; Restore Health +2/sec
> Lucky 38 - +2 Luck; +5% Crit.Chance
-------------
Crafting
-------------
The pole flags can be crafted, along with few other general goodies. Even if you can craft all the flags you want, there's a max limit in how many
of them you can plant. This limit is 50, and you can see the remaining flags using the option on the flag menu "Avaiable flags". This limit could be increased in the future, for now I thought it was big enough.
I introduced the possibility to craft few other items, like crates, barrels, a portable bedroll and even some flammable barrels that will explode if you shoot them, so I could make a better small camp near my flags.
All these items more or less require Spare Parts (=Scrap Metal), so I also introduced new recipes to breakdown common clutter to scrap metal.
They can be crafted at the workbench and they have their own category to be filtered, but since the crafting list is always cluttered with thousand recipes and I can't suffer that, I made all the recipes dependent by the crafting book called "You're C.A.R.P.E.N.T.E.R.": if you have this book in your inventory, then you will see the recipes. If you drop this book, then you won't see the recipes anymore. I placed 2 copies inside the buried building, be careful to not loose them. In case, there are more copies inside the Cheat Trunk.
These new "special items" you can craft, they are scripted. You should only drop a quantity of 1, everytime, because if you'll use the slider and put a higher quantity, only one will appear in game and you will loose the other ones, so be careful.
When one of these items is on the ground, if you activate it standing up you will interact with them (i.e. sleep on the bedroll, open a crate to put things inside etc.), but if you activate them when you are sneaking then you will pick them again. If you placed some things inside a container, these things will go back automatically in your inventory.
List of clutter you can dismantle to obtain Scrap Metal: Pot, Dog Bowls, Coffee Kettle, Firehose Nozzle, Hammer, Iron, Lawnmower Blade, Leaf Blower, Lunch Box, Paint Guns, Pan Cooking, Pressure Cooker, Steam Gauge, Tin Cans, Bent Tin Cans, Toaster, Vacuum Cleaner, Wood Chipper
List of items you can craft: portable bedroll, small and big wooden crate (container), ammo crate (container), dufflebag (container), wooden barrel (container), pole flag (...), flammable barrel (explosive)
--------
MCM
--------
MCM is not mandatory but it's strongly recommended. The few options inside allow you to enable / disable debug mode in case of problems, the buff effect of the flag, the visual magic effect and enable the cheat trunk. This is a trunk in front of Chet's in Goodspring, it contains every item added by the mod, so you can avoid the small quest too if you are not in the mood.
If you don't own MCM, you can still set variables using the console, to 0 (Disable) or to 1(Enable):
Set "xx000ae7".bDebug To 0 / (or 1) >>> Disable/Enable the debug mode, descriptions spamming on console.
Set "xx000ae7".bBuff To 0 / (or 1) >>> Disable/Enable the buff provided by the flags
Set "xx000ae7".bBuffEffect To 0 / (or 1) >>> Disable/Enable the visual effect you see on actors when they are affected by the buff
Set "xx000ae7".bCheatTrunk To 0 / (or 1) >>> Disable/Enable the cheat trunk in front of Chet in Goodspring.
...where xx is the index of the mod in the load order.
-----------------
Installation
-----------------
- Install NVSE (Mandatory 4.5+ something)
- Install Lutana plugin (Mandatory 9+, uploaded 11/02/2015 or newer)
- Install MCM (Optional, but recommended)
- Use a mod manager to install the archive or unpack manually everything under Data, as you usually do.
--------------
Conflicts
--------------
The only vanilla cell which was modified is outside the playing zone, so basically no vanilla record were changed. I can't think to anything else right now.
RECOMMENDATION: don't forget that it's always a good idea to not save while a scripted sequence is running. For this reason, avoid saving during those 5 seconds from where you click on the option [Plant flag] to when the flag is really planted.
---------------------
Known issues
---------------------
- When you drop one of the new scripted items (crates, barrels etc.etc.) you can't do it in a quantity higher than 1. For example, if you want to drop 4 crates, you must drop 4 times 1 crate. If you choose 4 in the slider, you will loose the other 3. Flag poles are the only exception.
- There are cases where the cheat trunk doesn't appear, it should be enough to fast travel somewhere and then fast travel back in Goodspring, or Save / Reload the game.
- When you name the flag, you will see "enter character name": this is because I'm using the player's name box to change it, that description can't be changed.
- When you slip down inside the buried building, probably your companion won't follow you automatically. Not a big deal, there's only a couple of rooms down there.

FPS Counter [FONV]
----------------
Short description
----------------
A simple-but-fully-configurable in-game FPS counter, to check the framerate, mainly for statistic and debug purposes. Or to make fun of your friends with bad rigs, showing them how high your FPS counter can go.
This counter tracks down the time a frame leasts inside an effect, so it's strictly related to script execution and nothing about graphic. However, since graphic and scripts are related on their owns, you should see similar values to those you could see (for example) with Fraps.
------------
MCM Options
------------
- Enable FPS Counter: pretty explanatory... it allows to enable/disable the mod. The first time you load the mod it's disabled by default.
- FPS Counter Position: clicking on this option, you will be kicked out from MCM and you will be able to decide the hud position. All the controls are written on the screen once you select this option, so don't worry to remember them, however the keys are: arrows or the control movements(WASD) move the hud, speed up the hud movement keeping Run pressed (SHIFT), change the font using Activate / Reload (E/R), enable / disable the infos on the screen using Grab (Z), confirm with Jump (SPACE) or Pipboy (TAB), reset to default pressing Auto-Run (Num Lock).
- Mode: you can choose between FPS (frames per second) or MS (milliseconds, the time every frame leasts)
- Refresh time: this parameter could be controversial, so please be careful to its interpretation. If you are unsure, just keep it very low (0.05-0.1), as per default.
I introduced it only to catch spikes and understand their intervals. The way the mod works is grabbing EVERY frame time and choose the smallest value among the <Refresh Time> interval. This means that if you set the max value (2 seconds) you could notice that the FPS value drastically drops down. THIS DOESN'T MEAN YOUR FPS IS THAT LOW, this means that during the interval of 2 sec. you had at least one frame with that low framerate (= a "spike").
- Threshold: under this FPS value, the counter will become red. It's just a way to catch the low values more easily.
-------------
Requirements
-------------
- NVSE 4.6+ (note: in date 12/05/2015 it is the Beta version on Silverlock)
>>>> It wouldn't be bad installing the most recent one, you can find it on hlp's thread on Beth forum (note: in date 12/05/2015, it is the link to v5.0 beta 1 from his Dropbox).
- UIO
- MCM
Personal note about requirements: if, in general, you feel you dont' want to install requirements like the ones stated above, for whatever reason you could have ("they're not safe!", "my computer's old and slow!", "once my cousin installed it and it broke his level 50!", <insert here some other unfounded excuse>), if you love modding then you should really start to think about it seriously. Requirements like these are top-notch modding, made by professional modders, created to break the barriers of common modding, introducing new wonderful features. And this is the same for every other extension you can find around, like JIP or Lutana. In my opinion, they should be considered on the same level of VANILLA, when people make a NV installation.
-----------
Installation
-----------
Unpack everything inside your Data folder. To uninstall, remove those few files and make a clean save.
Please report if you have issues so that we can solve them together.

For modders

Interiors for NV
By A.J. in Modders Resources
Description:
These are some of the interiors I used and still use, merged in a single ESP. Some are better cluttered than other ones (new ones are usually better), but generally they're not that "empty" since I like cluttering. They can be used for different purposes / modified / whatever you want, just read permission.
Maybe in the future I'll add more of them, but for now there are only 35 fully navmeshed cells, essentially:
- Two basements
- Two big buildings: 2 floors and 3 floors
- Three "dungeon" kinds: a heavy cluttered shopping center with a main hall and 3 separated cells, a shop that leads to a cave, a dark lab / slaughterhouse with a good quantity of gore
- Fourteen houses: different tilesets, various kinds (houses/rooms/motel rooms), some vanilla recluttered, some new shapes, some classy and some dirty
- One utility / industrial kind
- Three shacks (one with a cave below on a separate cell)
- Three shops (two made by two separated cells)
- A train station interior
Technical:
- All the cells are prefixed with aai + name/category + number, their names contains a small description
- The lights are as I liked them, maybe they're not for everyone's taste, they're balanced for vanilla. Emittance should be setted (I didn't check if it kept it after the copy)
- Doors are not linked, even the ones to the sub-cells, so you can use only a part of them.
- Full navmesh > needs to be finalized when linked
- I removed scripts, activators, markers, audio markers and thousands unique IDs, replacing with vanilla, I hope I didn't miss anything, in case let me know
- Even if I changed all the unique assets with vanilla ones, the cell called aaIBuilding01 still needs an extra tile to fill a small gap. To notice it, you must climb the stairs and watch over your head at the end of these. I included the mesh in the archive, but I didn't create a new ID so that everyone will call it as he prefer concerning his mod. That tile should fit good snapping the grid
- Since I modified them to be vanilla compatible, to copy an interior inside your ESP you just need to:
>>> Load your ESP and this one, flag your ESP as active.
>>> Don't touch anything, just load the new cells in the render window and take a look, choose the one you like.
>>> Duplicate that cell, rename it as you wish, save.
>>> Reload your ESP all alone now: it should contain the new renamed cell inside.
COC:
I didn't include COC Markers. If you still want to take a look ingame, you probably will land on the ceiling. Anyway, these are the names of the cells to COC:
aaiBasement01, aaiBasement02
aaiBuilding01, aaiBuilding02
aaiDungeon01, aaiDungeon02, aaiDungeon02a, aaiDungeon02b, aaiDungeon02c, aaiDungeon03
aaiHouse01 to aaiHouse14
aaiIndustrial01
aaiShack01, aaiShack02, aaiShack02a, aaiShack03
aaiSoph01, aaiSoph01a, aaiSoph02, aaiSoph02a, aaiSoph03

Remote Control Explosive Car - Beta
SHORT DESCRIPTION
If you want to try this, just watch this video AND read KNOWN ISSUES below
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jmdZja36hI&feature=youtu.be
UPDATE
It now requires this to be downloaded separately, to increase compatibility. You place it inside your Data folder, activate it and put it before in your Load Order.
LONG DESCRIPTION
While waiting for Nina, I did this mod as a proof of concept, it was a nice way to test the reliability of some UDFs I did few days ago. This is classified as Beta because I just uploaded to have more tests on the "core" itself, trying that on other NV installations. Anyway, if it will work fine, this "bomb" will be craftable and I will hide the schematics inside a short quest involving some fiend bloodbath.
HOW IT WORKS
Take this bomb inside a trunk just in front of Doc Mitchell's house, on a wall. They are "ingestibles", it means you will find them under "Help" (or is it Aid?) in GECK, just like food.
When you use it and close the pipboy, you will be forced to equip a detonator, there's no way to remove it. After 1-2 seconds (it varies by game delays), a small buggy will be deployed on your feet, you will hear a sound like something that falls on the ground. DON'T CLICK your left button! or it will detonate just on your feet
At this point, you can decide to go a bit more far and detonate it, so it can be used just like a remote control mine, just like C4, or you can point your crosshair on the little car and activate it. A small menu will allow you to take the car back (so the detonator will be removed by your hands) or start driving the car (with the option Activate).
To drive you can use WASD just like you move your character. Still, if you press Fire, the car will detonate.
On top left there's a small hud that shows the damage of the car hull. If a monster will attach the car, when the health reaches zero it will detonate automatically.
Also, if while you drive the car your character with the remote control is attached by an enemy, the controls will go back to you and the car will detonate automatically (so be careful).
If you deployed the car and an enemy is attacking you, you won't be able to Activate it and drive against him, no matter if he's very far, if he's in the Combat condition you can't drive the car.
I guess that's all.
FUTURE PLANS (if everything works fine, much or less)
- Solving known and unknown bugs
- Putting a small quest to gain the schematics so that the car will be craftable
- Nerfing the explosion (fatman explosion is just a placeholder, it was nice to see)
- Putting a max range of the controller, definetely shorter in interiors
- Increase compatibility
INSTALLATION
Requires last NVSE, what is it... 4.2something.
Drop the content inside your Data folder, activate both the ESM (CamUtil.esp) and the ESP (BoomBoom.esp).
If some program tells you "hey it's marked as esm but it's an esp!", answer it that yes, you can read.
UNINSTALLATION
.(pse.mooBmooB) PSE eht dna (pse.litUmaC) MSE eht thob etavitca ,redlof ataD ruoy edisni tnetnoc eht porD
Basically, do the contrary of what you did when you installed it.
KNOWN ISSUES
- Since it's a beta, when you deploy the car till you detonate it, your console WILL SPAM A LOOOOT OF MY MESSAGES! can you disable them? yes but I don't tell you how. They don't hurt you and could help me if something goes wrong with you.
- ALMOST FULLY INCOMPATIBLE WITH PIPBOY REPLACERS! for now I'm sure that Readius works fine (next thing I'll fix) should be fixed
- INCOMPATIBLE with non-vanilla companions, just leave them grazing at home (next next thing I'll fix, at least for the most common ones) should be fixed
- PROJECT NEVADA: if you sprint with the detonator on your hand, the car will detonate, so CAREFUL!
- I can't really call it "script intensive", but well there are scripts running. If your installation is slow, something could not work fine. If you're unsure, please create new savegames and don't overwrite old ones.
A good way to understand if you're in danger: if the car doesn't do what it's supposed to do, like in the video, you're in danger.
At that point, really, DON'T overwrite your savegames. Please.
