JaySuS

Commonwealth of Modders
-The High Sea Caravansery-

Version 1.0

A Mod For Fallout 3
by Bethesda Softworks

---------------------

adds a whole new world with its own quests, connection to the wasteland, items,
and whatever else you may have dreamed of...

---------------------

content:

a whole tropical archipelago for you to enjoy

a wide variety of exciting quests ranging from assasinations over rescues to total destruction (11+)

an abundance of shops of which many are in honor of some individual modders

a fair share of new companions

plenty of new items for you to enjoy (115+ weapons, 65+ armor pieces, a bunch of misc items)

a splendid home for you onboard an old submarine including addons and an amazing underwater view

---------------------

installation:

extract the COMMV10.rar into your ..fallout/Data/ directory

OR
manually move COMMmain.bsa, COMMtextures.bsa and COMM.esm into your fallout3\data directory

---------------------

deinstallation:

lol as if i would have intended that... no! i dont know how!
...
...
...
*sigh* if you insist...
delete:
fallout3\data\COMMmain.bsa
fallout3\data\COMMtextures.bsa
fallout3\data\COMM.esm

---------------------

usage:

activate COMM.esm in your fallout launcher of choice

most likely youll have to change a setting in your fallout.ini - change "BinvalidateOlderFiles=0" to 1
(applies for most mods that add new content)

COMM.esm need to be loaded AFTER fallout.esm
use Timeslip's Fallout Mod Manager (FOMM) to achieve this

---------------------

info:

if those "JaySuS needs a job" signs annoy you just shoot at them, i need one nevertheless

to get your player home either do Captain Red Carp's Quest or simply buy it from him

changelog:

imagine a new born child, now imagine it 12 yrs later... that's approximately the change this mod went
through from V08 to this very release, thus basicly too much to mention

----------------------

future prospects:

n/a

----------------------

conflicts:

addons for COMM made by me (JaySuS) before june 2009 are obsolete with this release as they are all included
yet and may therefore cause conflicts of unknown scale

addons of authors other than me (JaySuS) still work as intended

general safety issues

this mod might kill you, your loved ones or the whole world! i take no responsibility for
any action done or any event happening as a result of playing this or any other of my mods.
it includes gore, foul speech, probably but not necessarily boobs, brutality and sheer beauty... if you dont
like any of these avoid this mod.

------------------------

have fun and enjoy

------------------------

its telling me i need a file i dont have. Part 1-1713.rar ... i'm not exactly sure why

EDIT:
the files are incorrectly named to auto-extract in sequence. you must instead point it to the next 'part' of the file.

might wanna fix that. some people might not bother trying to figure it out.

Woo-hooo, where are mah skins?!?

DL-ing tomorrow, too late tonight.


Sweet.


Acolyte's going on a holiday!! Gets to wear his Hawaii Shirt (still says hello to it every morning)

EDIT:

I'm an idiot...i forgot to untic the We Jazz plugin.

disregard bug mentioning. stunning work dude.

@bishop... mhh t'cant actually be, i have no problem extracting these in sequence... do you use winrar?

no water? nah thats indeed crazy...
sgt. johansson does crazy stuff... dunno sometimes hes allright sometimes not... thats the radiant ais fault imo...

regarding the water, could you tell me what mods you use, which version your fallout is at and what kind of graphics card you have?

yes i use winrar, and when i went to extract the COMMtextures file, it asked for part1-1713, instead of part2-1712 like it should have. i therefore had to point it to each consecutive file(even though the names were wrong, ?t'll work that way). so, i got it extracted, but if i hadnt realized what was going on i wouldnt have.

i'm alt tabbing to type this.....i'm all drooly

SWEET!!!

I had the original one, and was vastly confused at large parts of it. Hopefully now i'll be able to play through it without my mental confusions.

Thanks!!!

PS. WWJD??

Thats... "What Would Jaysus Do?"

just realized that i forgot to bundle some textures, ill upload them in a minute and include a fix for johansson if possible... the water seems to work for me, dunno what could be wrong

@bishop
oh now i see what you mean, the nexus renames the files :/ so they cant be extracted right... damnit...
ill think of a solution gimme a sec...

edit: i uploaded the texture fix and sgt. johannson fix (should be up in 1 or 2 minutes)

as i dont know atm how i could possibly fix the nexus filename change problem i added a line to the description telling you to either manually select each consecutive pack or rename them... sorry its the best i can do right now, i cant upload a single pack for technical reasons

a question about a semi-hidden area:
the , is it supposed to be pitch black inside? even the pipboy light wont brighten things up. VATS works tho....just no percent to hit.

mmh... this area is actually not supposed to be visited, but it shouldnt be pitch black but black n white and thats what i have...
in regards tot his and your water bug i get the feeling that your video card may need a driver update :/ or maybe it conflicts with 1.5 i dunno... thats why i asked you to tell me what mods you use, your video card and driver ref + fallout version... t'would be nice if you could suply me with that info so i can do my best to make it enjoyable for you... and now leave that room lol... thats mine...
thx for the infos btw

i realized when i read that this new version conflicts with old plugins, that the old wejazz radio station plugin would not work. when i un-tic'ed it like i was supposed to, everything works now.
i'm running SLI 8800 GTS's, and i have the latest driver version(unless there was an update yesterday.....). also, i'm not using 1.5 because broken steel is broken.
but to clarify, the water bug is gone. its fine now - actually better than fine, looks great.

thought you guys would like this screen shot from Cry's Island...

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/8550/hsc011of1.jpg

wow. what extra environment mods are you using in that?

Sorta dark that screenshot, innit?

I am using "The Outbreak" weather cycles mod. I just leave it set on random. I think it causes my game to crash when it's on the "True Blue" setting.

PS. Yeah, the shot is a bit dark, but that was taken early in the morning as the sun was coming up, and I loved how the angle of the sun created the contrasting shadows.

uh wow that looks cool :/
didnt know it would affect my mod too... hell... had i known such effects are possible i would have given it a few more days before release... that way it really looks like i wanted it... Apokalypse now ftw!

@bishop
oh i see...
well you can use all addons still, just dont use those starting with "JaySuS..." as they are all included yet...
regarding the radio station, ill take care of that and make a new esp for crow so it doesnt affect the water (pity it does, its a great addon)

im uploading a new bugfix file atm... should be up in 2minutes...

it includes the missing worldmaps (lol i hope i got all textures now ) and a fixed WeeJazz.esp for those that use this radio station addon...

ill add a list of all addons to the description in a moment

alrighty. you aim to please dont you? heh.

and i agree, its an awesome radio station addon, because the DJ is hilarious. "Are you pretentious? so am I. This is the Station for us...WEE JAZZZ". or another favorite heh "Do you think you're better than everyone else? If so then Jazz is the music for you.." which is funny because i've always liked jazz. lol

i dont even want to go back to DC once i take the boat to Commonwealth Island....lol.

downloaded the new bugfix, however i'm not completely clear on how to get the new wejazz_fixed.esp working.... once i activate the new wejazz_fixed.esp and load up the game again - the station is not listed under my radio selections on my pipboy. no clue as to why. am i supposed to use it in conjunction with the original wejazz.esp? if so i didnt try that.

EDIT:
using both wejazz esp's makes the water bug come back, so i assume the wejazz_fixed.esp was meant to be stand-alone...

also, earlier i posted "i have the latest video drivers, unless they updated like yesterday" well apparently they did. lol. downloading the newest ones now...

nah t'wasnt your video driver lol... ill give the we jazz thing a new look... moment...

edit: youre right... fixing it right now

k found the culprit... uploading a new bugfix package now
should be up in 2-4minutes

We Jazz works now (at least i hope so...lol)

finished downloading, will test and report...

EDIT:
nope.

the radio station is available on the pipboy, but when selected there is nothing. no sound, no dj, no music, not even static.... :/

ah wait.... i know why
uploading fix ina moment

uploading it now... to fix it yourself just rename the new We Jazz fixed.esp to We Jazz.esp
thats all
