I installed this mod hoping it would be a useful addition to the game. Well, for starters, the game simply dosn't load with the mod enabled, even though I have done everything correctly. Secondly, it has changed so much, and the mod maker hasn't bothered putting the default files in a backup folder in the rar, I would have done if I had known it was going to change all this. The menu music has changed to some crappy trance beats, and the background image has changed too (and this is all with the mod disabled, which is even more annoying). I havn't loaded a save game but I imagine more stuff has changed too.

Does anyone know where I can get back the original files?

CRI is an abomination that I don't know why the moderators haven't put an end to, he steals countless models and grabs anythat would even be considered remotely popular and adds it to his BS mod, in the beginning it look pretty cool with the black Vault suits that said CRI on them, those armors were nice, but the crap that he has put together for his mod is ridiculous

just uninstall it, you'll be ridding yourself of a whole lot of problems

He's getting a lot of praise up there (nexus), so why is he getting the bashing only on beth forums O_o

Well, he takes items from other mods without mentioning it to the mod makers, such as the Colossus Headgear, and places them in his mod. I'm tempted to report it now, since the headgear is a personal fav of mine.
EDIT: OP, just make a FOMOD of the mod, enable it, then disable it. It'll all be gone.

bcuz Beth are forums are where the cool geeks hang :nod:

The mod was "ok". But then he just added tonnes of [censored] in. It added an unbalance to the game. There were awesome models besides [censored] ones, and he stuffed them all at Craterside Supply.

But how will I get back the original files, like the music and load screens? A little how-to about creating FOMOD's would be great.

Well, when you learn how to create a FOMOD; Enabling the FOMOD is basically installing all the resources. Disabling it will remove EVERYTHING it added; Meshes, textures, etc. So you'll get all the original files, music, and loadscreens back...I think.

I like alot of things he does but then again Alot of things he does is crap its like 50/50 so I download his mods and then only use the parts that I like, My load screens changed too I would like to fix that does anybody know the section where you can delete the images used for it so it goes default?

Arrr don't mention it... he's ripping apart everything that's popular and integrates it into his mod...sry I have no respect for this guy.

/e: btt: Just take a look into his archive and compare which files have been added and remove those.

Haha ya I went into his archive deleted all the dogmeat stuff he had and downloaded the orignal outfits mod deleted the techno music in the beginning and the cri sign and deleted most of the dumb screenshots, I kept some of them cause some were actually cool.

Can anyone give a guide to remove the mod using FOMOD? I have a feeling removing it will remove a load of stuff that came in FOOK as well, I recognised the things it was overwriting as CRI installed. I'll probably reinstall FOOK incase.

God it makes me sick that this guy has such a fanbase, given the fact for every unique thing he does he rips off 25 more.

i never heard for CRI mod can someone give a linky to it?i wanna see whats this all about...
i think i found it."CRI-Squad support"?damn i just saw tons of good mods integrated and not even 1 with proper credits

Unproper credits is rage I can life with it if he had permission and proper credits but this guy...

Wow looking at that mod really disgusts me... have a look at the files tab: Why in the world wasn't he banned?! and I wish they would ban\put in place rules to stop author's begging for ratings, 199 ratings with nearly 1k of comments and ONLY 14k of downloads? those ratios are waaay off....

We already tried confronting him about it, but he said "he had made all of it" and apparently that was good enough for the moderators. And everybody commenting how it was "Such a great mod!" got all over our asses too.

Hehe he goes free but the amazing rifle (ak 103) from AlexScorpion is banned... ok I'm just a little sad that the gun is banned and wanted to say it xD

The Fallout community seems a hell of a lot worse w.r.t. attribution than the Oblivion one.

think is, CRI includes that very gun, as well as parts of the ripped crysis nanosuit. permission or not, his mod contains illegal models

Yeah. I think it's the lack of legal system in Fallout. Oblivion has those guards everywhere, while FO3 only has regulators, who only show up in small groups and end up being very weak.

:P

I'm not entierly familiar with the mod, but to remove any new menu textures or sounds it should be as simple as checking the DATA folder and removing any of the files from the zip that may be added there.

i had a look at the mod on nexus...it looks like he's 10 years old, so im not surprised if he ripped modders files without permission.

I'll send a few of my regulators over. Mine carry model 1858's chambered for .45 ACP, hair triggered, with heavy actions, and can take the head off a Power armored Enclave trooper with one shot. If THEY can't stick it to this bastriche then I dunno who can. :flamethrower:


Seriously, how friggin hard is it to ASK for permission to use something?

I swear to GOD if I ever find any of my teams stuff, or the contributions others made to our mod in this jackholes mod(s) I'll bother Buddha (one of the Nexus staff) until he cries for mercy and bans the guy.

Maybe someone should point Buddha to this thread? Hes rather merciless when it comes to guys like this CRI mod jerk.

fallout3nexus should at least have a 'report' button to report mods, that would help with prblems like these.
