I've been playing Morrowind and Oblivion for ages, and I love everything Bethesda has done so far, even with the annoying bugs here and there. I was wondering if there's a Tempus Fugit type of ring made for FO3. And maybe a type of Necessities Of Morrowind made for FO3, or similar mods/tweaks. I'm trying to make my game as realistic as possible, and i'd like to start with the basics.


Edit: Also looking for something that puts the mods in the correct load order automatically, like mlox does for Morrowind. I have FOMM installed, but I haven't really checked it out yet.

Not sure about a Tempus Fugit ring. http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1083717-relz-fwe-fo3-wanderers-edition-%2336/ comes with an ingame menu via which you can control lots of features, including timescale. It also comes with several realism mods merged, such as Primary Needs etc. It's an awesome mod, so you might want to check it out.

http://amito.freehostia.com/Fallout/FO-mods.htm is a good place to start as her main focus is realism. Also, her http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1079218-relz-arwens-realism-tweaks-thread-%236/ is an alternative to FWE. Not using it myself but it seems excellent.

http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=6338 adds new foods, cookbooks, and the ability to cook, along the same vein as NoM. There's no 'hunger' need to fill, since food already heals you when you eat it, but other than that it might be what you're looking for.

Oh, and there's coffee. :wink_smile:

I ended up using FWE and threw in Marts Mutant Mod as well. I haven't been playing this game for as long as Oblivion or Morrowind especially, so im not familliar with a lot of the mods and how/if they work well with other mods. I'm using some models and texture replacers, and some realism mods. Already, I can tell how much FWE has changed the game. I'm getting my ass kicked every which way, but frustration aside, it's much more realistic and makes the game that much more challenging. MMM adds lots of extra encounters, and adds to the danger level. Thanks for all the suggestions.


I eventually would like to get into creating my own mods for FO3. I assume there's a free contruction set available somewhere?

You can download the G.E.C.K. from the official webpage. Look under *gasp* downloads. :hubbahubba:

Surprise surprise. Thanks.

No problem! Careful though - once you crack that thing open, there's a good chance you'll spend more time modding than playing...

I know. As far as Morrowind goes, I can't decide whether to work on mods or play the game. Iv've had the game for ages and I STILL haven't completed the main quest. lol I think all the CTD's made me frustrated with it, but these days I guess it doesn't bother me as much.
