Awesome! If it helped, great!

not 100% sure if the weapon debris is nvidia only issue, but I’ve only seen the crashlog sniffing bot mentioning it when people have had nvidia cards.

out of curiosity, weapon debris -option enabled if you check the base game’s launcher -> options? that causes mad crashes on nvidia cards.

the discord for the mod is really helpful, and has a pretty smart bot to decipher crashlogs. Definitely solved some issues I had. Recommended, unless discord is a nono, which is fair.

I do some “community service” over there and help out others where I can. And seems like most crashes are either some lingering mods from old-fallout4 install, creation club mods (any cc*.* files in fallout/data -dir, or old config files in mydocs/mygames/fallout4) or “bug fix mods” intended for 1.00/1.01 folon versions, and lastly: weapon debris -option enabled - that causes crashes outright with nvidia cards.

edit: also “long loading times fix” -mod is a total nono, there’s better and less files corrupting options out there (highfpsphysics)

Similar thoughts here. I was playing it on fairly high end pc as well from day 1 (wasn’t really patient with it… yea…) - Sure there were some funky glitches (eg. occasionally T-posing nude on bikes) here and there, but nothing game breaking. But that’s not to say those things didn’t happen to others, but I’ve understood the game was an absolute shitshow on ps4.

oh cool, bought the game aaaages ago, seems it has received a lot of content. Probably need to check back into it :o

this is me, doing php and javascript on daily basis.

It’s been a while since I last played fallout 4 - outside of Fallout: London, while it’s “technically” the same game, it’s not. Haven’t played the “next gen” patch version.

Anyhoo:

Right there with you about the settlements.

Building my own fortress just for the sake of it? Sure, but functionally literally a single container box, few crafting tables, bed and maybe walls if you really want to is needed. I don’t mind some settlers to make the place a bit more lively, but they have absolutely zero agency of their own. I just can’t be bothered to micromanage a bunch of idiots who seem to be starving until you literally hold their hand and make them farm the plants that were right next to them all the time. Haven’t tried sim settlements mod.

The thing that starts to really annoy me is how some settlers seem to get captured by bandits all the time. My “favorite” was this one lady who got captured on weekly basis, and was held every week in the same bunker, tied down on the same spot. After several rescues the bandits just stopped respawning, so she was just sitting in the bunker tied down and all the doors were open. I like to imagine it was her kink and not just badly implemented repeating quest. Eventually I just stopped caring, it was getting stupid - even in Fallout’s standards. In general the generated “quests” are fine, but they start to repeat pretty quickly.

My preferred method was just to mod carry weights to zero and vacuum everything scrap looking on my adventures and craft away - I know I could just consolecommand in the parts, but I’d rather do some collection on my own.

The adventuring in F4 was pretty great, I did enjoy snooping around the city and doing odd jobs here and there. I’ve played the game few times to like lvl 60-whatever but never finished the main quest - furthest I’ve gotten was apparently to start pushing the final attack to the institute but I just couldn’t be bothered. I did finish the dlc’s, tho.

All in all, kinda feels like it’s the middle of the road Bethesda-game, decent-ish on it’s own, better with mods.

I played the freebie version ages ago, any thoughts on if the Plus -version’s content worth revisiting it? The shock value of the game is kinda one-and-done I feel.

Part of me wants to experience the shitshow first hand, seems like an absolute riot. Realistically tho, never happening, I’ll probably look up some gameplay video at some point.

Grim Fandango is great, and the remaster with mouse controls is absolute peak with the added traditional mouse point&click interface. Though, mouse controls don’t really work for every occasion in the game, but it’s pretty minor issue overall.

Shame the remaster couldn’t really clean up the cutscenes, as those are VERY crunchy with the late 90’s video compression. Kinda same for the static backdrop graphics. The in-game lighting did get a lot nicer!

I’ve been meaning to test out https://hexagon.codes/grimhd - someone seems to be ai-upscaling the backdrops to modern resolutions & color depths, they seem very nice on the screenshots. So you know, disclaimer: haven’t tried it myself, can’t endorse it, and if you do: scan it for nasties first.

Eternal Darkness is one of the very few horror games I’ve played AND completed - well not 100%'d but played through twice, once on GC and once emulated.

The game kinda waters down the whole sanity thing as you can just magick your sanity back up. Same for health, and magick goes up by just running in a circle for a bit. So essentially you can just max all meters all the time.

Either way, it’s a neat game. Even for those who are not really into horror games, as the game isn’t really that spoopy - and this is coming from someone who just generally can’t with horror games.

Both seem reasonable. The banning is (AFAIK) mostly to prevent cheaters from making made-up familymember steam -accounts, and cheating in games as them. Once one made-up family member is banned, make another.

Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles … but with the caveats that a) it’s only PARTLY like stardew/portia/harvestmoon and b) For the life of me I can’t remember if the game had money or not.

The game is partly farm-life-sim, but the other part is “zelda-like” adventuring and getting rid of “dark smoke thing” that does bad things to the world.

Okay, sure, when given the fps camera, closest things to the camera are getting noticed. Duh?

But all things considered, who cares about a single goblin toe? Im much more scarred about the thongs happening in nearby shed. Bleach please.

But at that scale there’s always gonna be compromises. Duh. Does somebody actually expect full fidelity between 3rd person and closeups all the time? Might be showing my age but I sure don’t. What kind of madnes is that?

Games don’t need the show everything, leave a bit to imagination. Sure visuals ate cool, but don’t let that be all there is to it.

man, it’s been ages since I last saw this movie. Sober me’s todo for tomorrow: meaning of life, python. GET. ON. IT.

“20$ is 20$”

which said it first: kofi -funded developer or onlyfans star?

don’t we all? But we’re here to make boring business software for MBA’s

https://xkcd.com/323/ this? and the fact that most of my programming breakthroughs have come while in “two beers” territory.

edit: actually, no. MOST of my programming breakthroughs have dawned on me while sitting on the can. But second most is “two beers down”.

I’ve always thought the “buy me a cup of coffee” was a thinly veiled euphemism for “give me beer”

edit: also, I have contributed. There’s this one android app that works to translate between different wargaming/miniature painting paint brands (as in color matching), the dev straight up asks for a contribution for beer. It was so brutally honest I had to.
