Just released a new version. Tweaked the model and texture, also added a bonus holster with some feather stuff from the unique brush gun. Removed the scripts and simply made them craftable via workbench... Guess that's more what people want, and who am I to deny that. Especially considering this would never work with any of the custom weapon mod releases.

Ok, I confess.

says the guy who led the death threats years ago and who is raging on MMA along with dutch Death threats? What kind of stuff are you smoking? /Edit: Looks like the skill system has been entirely dropped. Not a single hint of it in the videos.

Ok, I say it too. The base building looks ok. But really, it's nothing I want from a Fallout *RPG* ... This thing right now to me looks more like a post apocalyptic Minecraft with better graphics and ****ty dialogue.

This is not the real project I wanted to work on next, just a small and fast proof of concept mod... The mod does what the screenshot shows. There are two *.esp files in the release, one that comes with a script- only shows the holster when a supported weapon is equipped, the other adds a "free" item to Goodsprings, which you can equip whenever you want to. It bothered me A LOT that in all the years nobody made god damn rifle holster. I hated the floating rifles since Fallout 3 and especially since I've played Red Dead Redemption, which - I think for the very first time ever? - added holster for rifles.... But here comes the sad part of it: I spend 4 hours working on this test. The model isn't perfect, the texture certainly is not either. The whole concept might not work at all... but in 7 hours I got over 1000 views and over 100 downloads. Then I look at my Betsy mod, which cost me 2 months of work and it only has barely more.

lel they really did a voiced dude. Come on man. I really thought Bethesda couldn't disappoint me again, but I totally underestimated them. And base building? But hey... I don't blame them. Shait like this is in the top mods section since ages. Have to face it, I simply don't belong to Bethesdas target audience. They make games for other people, certainly not for my taste.

Exactly. The game is good, but some of the maps... really... way too long and annoying. You think it's over, and then that damn thing still goes on and on.

I forgot how often a Bethesda game can crash. Really, New Vegas with 50 mods runs a lot more stable for me than Fallout 3 without any mods. This thing is crashing like a madman.

Minority? I think the ones who don't like Geralt are the minority. Except for maybe Dandelion in a spy rpg I don't want to play anyone other than Geralt.

Aaaand... my new New Vegas mod is finally released. It's kind of a re-release of New Vegas Uncut 6 - If it wasn't for Betsy. I fixed it up... fixed lots and lots of bugs... really, it took me a truckton amount of time to fix it all (and I hope I got it all. Had to rewrite some scripts multiple times, which was driving me crazy up until a point where I thought it is unfixable). Also - of course - added my own tweaks, little changes here and there and fully voiced dialogue. I think the result is pretty good. /edit: What I've learned from this experience: Working on someone elses content can be a huge pain in the arse. The scripting style wasn't mine, so I had to get into it first, the dialogue buildup has been a pure mess (because it was made in Fallout 3 style - that means, the New Vegas dialogue editor obviously wasn't used, which resulted in dialogue nodes being all over the place) and the quest stages setup is all over the place as well. Makes me question my faith in humankind. My next project will be 100% my own again, and I feel happy about that.

Awesome, that Shadow Warrior remake was good (though some of the levels should have been cut shorter, imo). But this 4 player coop... not sure how to feel about that. Also I'd like Wang to get a little bit more out with the jokes and stuff. That trailer isn't really showing off for my taste.

As far as I can tell, it comes from people who don't like Sawyer assuming that Avellone agrees with them. Pretty much this. It's all rumors / forum posts gone wild. I know of no interview or tweet or w/e where something like this was said or hinted at. Reminds me a bit of this "Obsidian vs. Bethesda"-clash after this 84% New Vegas rating, which the gaming media was bloating up into something huge.

Actually, I think I remember him asking on FB recently if anyone can give tips about good camera and microphone stuff (or similar), because of him wanting to continue the playthrough at home. Now with the latest news, I am wondering if this is somehow related.

What is this with all the fancy looking space movies coming out lately? Did I missed some memo or something?

Maybe you want to use the recently released Fallout 3 version of my Brahmin Variants Mod. :> http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/21308/

I still remember how ModDB was kinda going downhill after IndieDB and Desura came into play. You could really feel how they didn't spend any amount of time anymore on ModDB.

If you can't source it, don't ****ing say it. Obviously just your usual negativity spreading BS. Again. Wish I could google the video it was said in, but after so many years it's kinda hard and I don't feel motivated to wade through all the old Fallout 3 news and check every damn video just to prove it... Instead, though, I found a quote of a follow-up interview which clarified the issue. https://fallout3.wordpress.com/2008/03/14/fallout-3-first-and-third-person/

Sorry, too lazy to jump back in time and search for that interview. If you mean source for that new classic mode thingy, it's from that reddit rumor post.

The funny thing is, back in the days I was all like "never will I buy only digital! I NEED A BOX!" and today I am all like "eh, where the hell should I drop that damn box? Give me digital only!". I simply have no room for all the boxes and stuff. My shelves are full and I don't want to clutter my walls with everything. To me nowadays it's actually a blessing not to have a box and all that jazz anymore.

Same for me. When I needed some files for modding... instead of walking 1 meter, opening the box and taking the discs to install it... I bought it cheap on steam and downloaded it. Makes me feel bad and lazy.

Of course NMA is a place of joy and happiness right now. That "classic mode" sounds stupid too. I remember they said the same thing about Fallout 3 back in the hype-train-tyme. "You will be able to zoom out very far in third person view, almost making it like in the classic games" Todd or Pete said - much lel. Not only was third person perspective ugly (player character gliding over everything), it was also unpractical as hell and pretty much impossible to play with if you zoomed out to the maximum. So much to the "classic feeling".

Yeah, but some parts sound really strange. Like this "first releasing for PS4 and stuff and later in a 'advanced version' for PS3, etc." - makes really no sense to me. Also, if there really comes a spin-off and it is being developed by Behaviour Interactive.... As far as I can see, they have zero experience with deep RPGs of any kind and mainly released license games from movie titles. I find this very hard to believe.

Nope, that's not how Bethesda pr works. I am pretty sure they are aiming for a end-of-2015 release. They are using the hype train now and release the game when it's at the high peak. If there is one thing Bethesda is really good at then it's driving the pr machine.

You can still screw him kind of in other kind of ways.

Folks, I am throwing out another new New Vegas mod. This time I'll make Raul a tiny bit more useful.
