FOMM and a Couple Various Questions.

Post » Wed Aug 18, 2010 3:17 pm

Hello,

Just have a few questions that hoping someone can answer:

1) Regarding FOMM and the settings for graphics - I noticed many of them (including things like the View Distance Setting), can be overridden and set beyond the default maximum. Before I start experimenting with these, are there any websites/articles that give detailed info regarding all the settings and how far past the default maximum is considered 'stable'? I have a powerful system and the sub-par max graphics settings just don't do it for me anymore. The view distance, for example, is just terrible. Objects far out, such as terrain, basically look like a bowl full of a solid coloured liquid.

2) I'd like to install some HD Textures for, well, all aspects, including Terrain, Weapons, Armor, everything. After searching around some, all I could find for NV is 4Aces HD Textures, but they seemed a little unstable when I tried them before. I've also downloaded NMC's HD Pack, but that's only for F3 (which I no longer have installed). People seem to praise his work for F3, but can these be adapted to work reliably with FNV? I've read user posts about a lot of textures missing (obviously because I'm sure FNV has some new ones that F3 does not have). I have both 4Aces and NMC's packs on my drive, but which one is typically hailed as the better of the two?

Help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!

Try this mod/scripted installer designed to work with NMC's FO3 textures: http://newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=35645

I haven't tried it myself but I've heard others speak highly of it, give it a look.
