Thanks to everyone for enjoying our mod all these years and hitting 12K endorsements and 500K downloads. I appreciate it, and Engager does too. He doesn't get on the Nexus anymore (lost his login info and old email access), so I'm the only author left, and sole owner of the mod. If you have 10 seconds to spare, give some Kudos on my profile if you love the mod! When the Donation Points system was introduced, they blocked me out of being able to receive any with our mod, so yeah... Awesome.
This mod isn't working guys, I downgraded my game, reinstalled this mod more than twice, started a new game, and still this ain't working. Keeps claiming the WOTC.esp plugin is missing, but it's active on my Vortex app. This mod needs an update, I need more enemy spawns in this game. Please fix it!
I downgraded the game (it worked) and reinstalled this mod multiple times (installed older versions too), and still seeing the ""WOTC.esp plugin is missing" issue. That dam esp plugin is on in Vortex so idk! I can upload pics too if you want proof.
Mo2, no issues manual, hand placing, Appdata/local/fo4/Loadorder manually adding, no issues with vanilla
Per "Proof"..you need to address those self image issues. No one would think you were lying...HOWEVER...No one who understnads load orders, and DOES NOT use vortex, would not, for a minute, think you;ve left out information that is RELEVANT to your issue :) and that can simply be ignorance.
Load orders are domino stacks. 1 in the wrong spot causes cascading issues. WOTC in Vortex aims to load it WELL AFTER m,ods it should be before and that is because of how Vortex "sees' WOTC.
IMO, post your Loadorder text file (1st trick is to see if you can find it because it IS there :) ) POST IT AS a CODE so its not damned 90000000 lines long. THEN people can looksee and possibly lend a hand. Mods are not plug and play no matter how much they appear to be and Vortex, while a TERRIFIC introduction to modding, is not a long term solution as you expand your wants and needs, unless you learn more about modding
Works fine with Vortex as well. Ignore people who spat tripe and let it ride.
Vortex is the 2 wheel bike with training wheels that moves faster than Bethesda's mod platform, which is a bike with a warped tire on the front, no brakes, and both training wheels have been replaced with hamburger buns.
Vortex is a learning process. Once you;ve masterd it and become frustrated with it's limitations, you move on to MO2. The 1st thing you notice is Vortex did ALL of thew work of loading and unload, sorting, and staging, and you will hate life and run back to it at least twice unless you "cheat" :) Cheating is Following the STEP modlist, twice. The act of rote, repetition burns in your brain, and you will know, to a small degree, where mods fit in relation to others, from doing that. Vortex will still do it better initially, but you will understand what Vortex does.
then you download a Wabbajack list. THEN you start seeing the image become clearer, you add, you cobble, YOU ARE A MODDER! But then reality...Synthesis? Bash Patch? Lod? How do I disable and stop crashing...and the need to make IT WORK is the largest factor in helping you get a true clue of what you are doing. Some people pick up in months. Other's of us, 2 years or thereabouts :)
But it all starts in the same dugout, waiting for a chance to hack at the ball, for everyone. Vortex is an integral part of learning to mod for the majority of people. So when someone says Don;t use Vortex, look at it as a echo chamber pile of crap, spat forth from someone coming off as an "Elitest". I can;t say I've ever said it but I have stated MO2 is superior in function and control...but you can't play basketball till you learn how the game works
EDIT: OH! and to those Vortex reguritating haters...Tell me you;ve never taken time to learn how GROUPS WORK...without telling me you've never learned how groups work... people like this rely on the mods designation to automatically assign it's placement in Vortex. Want to bet ALL OF THEIR groups ALSO were slotted as DEFAULT aside from those DECLARED as Prvis,Framework, or a landscape overhaul? Come on...if you can't change a tire, don't tell other people to walk because driving is for the birds.
In closing, where I am from, we have a categorization for people like that. We would nod, look concerned, and say ESO error, huh. Well, that sucks...Because most people are too proud to ask what ESO means as they have already regurgitated their view on the matter :) Eso means equipment superior to operator, which is the same for those Mo2 RuLeZ posts. They do not understand groups, how to apply them, or how to alter them to resolve conflict. That's not Vortex fault...that's random kid/man-child fault :)
I really did enjoy using this especially out in the Glowing Sea but unfortunately this mod makes my game very unstable. Just sadden that I am unable to use it.
Hey, this mod is my favorite mod and the reason i reply fallout 4 every few months but does this mod work with the awful update betheda released? i ask as this was last updated in 2017. please let me know..
Does this work with custom factions? I downloaded the Zeta alien invaders mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/64499) but haven't seen any spawn with war of the Commonwealth.
i have a question about the mod is it possible to turn down how many raiders and such have power armor cuz i started a survival playtrough and im lvl 7 and each encounter has a power armor i dont have the ammo nor perk buffs or mid game weapons to deal with them they just one shot me straight so is it possible to have less enemies that have power armor?
I made a quick edit of the esp file to remove some edits to base game records (namely encounter zone and npc records). Would it be already to upload just that file? It'd mostly be for my personal use should I ever lose my files or choose to uninstall the game, but it'd be open to people who would want to download it.
Credit to and requirement of this mod would naturally be included.
