Fallout Mod Detectives #8

Post » Fri Feb 18, 2011 6:33 pm

*Taking a leaf from the previous threads*

To avoid future "Is there a mod that..." threads I'm starting our first Mod Detectives thread here.
Unlike the Oblivion forum we do not have a buddah who collects mod, but instead we should all try to work as a community.

What is this thread?

If you are in need of a mod that you either know and can't remember the name of, or don't know exists you can ask for it here. People then (hopefully) will post to inform you if such a mod exists.

Rules

Basic forum rules
No need to post "Hello? anyone know?" five times. Wait at least until the thread has moved on with one page before asking again.
For you who know the Oblivion mod detective thread might have noticed a change here. You can ask for mods you don't know exist.

To continue.. A question some most likely didn't see because I edited at the last second:

Is there a mod that replaces the Pip-Boy with something else? Some kind of device, I remember seeing like what looked to be a phone, I don't know, but where can I get something like that?

Ugh, those require FOSE and my stupid FOSE isn't working and I've tried all versions.

Just use the newest version of fose. It really isn't a big deal. Read the Directions twice if need be.

Is there a mod that replaces Fallout's soundtrack with Oblivion's? I really do miss Oblivion since I left the 360, and I really liked the music from Oblivion.

It would be illegal.

Before my computer died, I had a mod that added notes and things to mailboxes all over the Wasteland. What is it and where can I find it?

New to FO3 (Thanks Steam sale) and feeling way behind.

Looking for a mod that can remap the keys in menus: A to take all, E to exit in containers, similar in VATS. I don't use the keyboard itself, so I need to move them to new keys.

A nice hotkey mod with item cyclers would be cool as well.

I am looking for a romance mod. Something to take the 'Lone' out of 'The Lone Wanderer'. It doesn't matter what the requirements are.

I'll give this a shot, I kinda of wanted to play a merchant type of character, with barter the whole barter and speech and stuff(I have no idea how well this would go, just felt like doing something different).

What I was wondering is if there are any popular mods to help suit this? I have 2 companion mods and I know if I don't help kill something I won't get any experience(maybe a mod fixes this?).
Or maybe if it is possible to do turn ins to get my levels?

I was just curious as to if I can find mods that may help improve a more non combat type of character?

Is there a mod that adds the taped-together weapons from the Alien movies? I mean like the "LR300MOD Assaultrifle"-mod, but one that combines an assault rifle, grenade launcher and a flamer.

Im looking for one that adds some RP items or provides uses for some of the aesthetic ones and also for a mod that adds some random events.

Is there a website that has a bunch of house/ base mods similar to Oblivion Real Esate?

Is there a mod to remove the sway when you have the Pipboy open? It's kind of annoying zooming in on the map and having it move back and forth under my cursor...

Oblivion Real Estate also has a Fallout section.

Is there a mod that makes it so that power armor needs an occasional recharge to continue working? I'm hoping not, I've started making one.

Are there any mods that allow you to shoot out or otherwise destroy lights?

Apparently, http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1904 lets you shoot out lights (amongst other things).

Not in the latest version, unfortunately. But it is indeed planned for the next release, whenever that will come.

As far as I know, it did in earlier versions but not in the latest (6.1).
Though a comment dated a month ago said that in the next version it would be re-enabled. No idea when that will be and there doesn't seem to be much activity recently from the maker.
I was wondering if there were any other lights-out options?

My latest mod desire is a bin that can be emptied. Perhaps a nearby switch?
