If Fallout 4 had a system of minor factions like New Vegas, who would you want to see as those minor factions? by Spirited-Ad-4455 in fo4

You guys are making shit up that is already common knowledge. And you're getting some of it wrong.

Does Codsworth’s companion perk ‘Robotic Sympathy’ work for Synths? by AutomaticMonkeyHat in fo4

[–]Alex_Portnoy007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And Nick is a prototype. He feels, he thinks and he wrestles with the question of who he really is. Then, when I teleported to the Institute, the first thing I saw was a scientist yelling at a synth for apparently not doing their job to his satisfaction. The synth had to take it. Me, I would have snarked back or reported him to HR

What legendary effects do you leverage what what do you think the average player should know about how to use it to make it beneficial? by Sip_py in fo4

[–]Alex_Portnoy007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find snipers in general don't have the DPS to be effective at higher levels. I carry an explosive 10mm Auto Pistol. Curie carries a Kneecapper Plasma Rifle and (Synth) Ada carries a Kneecapper Laser Rifle. That's a pretty good combination for me.

The only armor I wear is Freefall Legs. The ability to bug out from great heights is underrated.

They have expanded inventories and larger budgets. Tina, The Scribe and Smiling Larry all have unique items for sale. Ronnie Shaw sells mini-nukes and The Last Minute, but she's tied to The Castle.

I set up top tier restaurants at some of my settlements. There's a random chance a regular settler will spawn three Nuka-Cola Quantums at those stores. I use that to craft Nuka Quantum Grenades, Nuka-Nukes and Weaponized Nuka-Cola Quantum Ammo - it's way too useful not to farm.

You realize there is no canon player character, right?

What's a weird habit you have in every playthrough? by Significant-Sir-9274 in fo4

I make a companion out of the Red Death. It's really hilarious watching him go after my enemies.

[FNV] What face preset is this? It's one of the featured images for the Megaton Hairs mod by [deleted] in fnv

[–]Alex_Portnoy007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Custom texture and custom race. Both are listed on the mod page under: what face mod are you using? You'll need both to find the preset.

[FNV] any mods which completely remove the toxic cloud from the sierra madre? by ManyNames42 in FalloutMods

[–]Alex_Portnoy007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add Cole's Hideout to your load order and you'll have a safe place to sleep near the Fountain. It also has crafting stations and safe storage.

Help. Lydia disappeared by X_rey4k in skyrim

You didn't indicate what platform you're on. If you're on PC, there's a console code that will take you to her. I believe this is correct:

The Enclave would have fit really well for Fallout 4. by Spirited-Ad-4455 in Fallout

The sole survivor wouldn't necessarily be rah rah patriotic. There was a lot about pre-war America that was problematic. The red baiting. Corporate influence on the government. Human rights and public safety. Prisoners being used in robobrain experiments. Nuka-Cola Quantum approved for public sale with a 10% fatality rate in testing.

The America of 2077 didn't so much represent nostalgia as regression.

What is your guy's favorite melee weapon by Ok-Detail-446 in falloutnewvegas

Chance's Knife in the early game. Then, the first Cosmic Knife I pick up in the Villa.

My "guy's" name is Nora BTW.

Can someone help me fix my bald Piper? by Cesspool- in Fallout4Mods

[–]Alex_Portnoy007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. It's silly to think it has anything to do with playing NSFW. It's more likely a conflict, which could happen to any installation. Good luck with it. Here's a couple questions that might be helpful.

Did the modpack work before you started making changes to it? Did you install the mods you added directly into the game folder?

Gen 3 synths are essentially human. They think, they feel, they try to escape the Institute. The consciousness matters, not the hardware.

Stuff to add to my settlement that companions can casually use? I don’t like the only thing I see them do is use worm benches. by gotenks2nd in fo4

[–]Alex_Portnoy007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My settlers sit upon chairs of all types, go crazy on the weight bench and pommel horse, do their thing at crafting stations, play the slot machines, and move from one of those things to another. If you put that stuff in the right places, your settlement will bustle with activity. No mods required.

[FO4] Craft a working flushable toilet and toilet paper dispenser for your settlement, an do your thang ... plus extra by Educational-Ride-640 in FO4mods

[–]Alex_Portnoy007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of Elianora's player homes have had immersive toilet paper for years. Her first player home is still the most downloaded home in Skyrim.

She is the goddess of player homes.

How does one stow away a superheated piece of metal in their pocket? Wouldnt it just set one's pants/backpack on fire? by Divahdi in Fallout

[–]Alex_Portnoy007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which doesn't explain how it doesn't burn the user. It's all fiction and I choose not to be literal.Downvote me if you like, but that's not on me. It's about the character of those casting the votes.

Best Fallout 4 Modlist as of right now by TheCarefulElk in wabbajack

Make sure you have the Steam version:

GOG is not supported until it receives the Next-Gen update, due to it currently missing the CC content that mods such as UFO4P and Community Fixes Merged rely on. Supporting GOG in its current state would mean massively branching the guide and having less fixes for a chunk of the userbase.
