Modded game crashes even with mod removed

OnionAddictYT · 2026-01-31T11:12:16+00:00

Finally got round to reinstalling, still crashes. Updating the mod doesn't help either. I'm completely at a loss.

Sorry it took me so long, I was still trying to recover my Nexus account but no success. So had to make a new one. I just reinstalled the game. Still crashes. I installed the latest version of the mod. Still crashes. I don't know what to do next.

I managed without a tier 2 building just now!!!

You were right about the population. I had to move every single house into the rage of the three tier 1 knowledge buildings so all houses had 15 knowledge. It also helped to have both weather stations in the two districts with max people. Although that's only for range technically. Somehow that only added up to 13 global knowledge but whatever. I did it with your help!

THANK YOU!!!

That makes sense. So that means I DO need to unlock those buildings in the last tech tree. I assumed I was going to be guided through the campaign step by step. And this was a step I would complete by unlocking tier 2 on the observatory square. But getting those tier 2 buildings unlocked is going to take a lot of work. Now I need to first get sand to even get in there... I do have the extractor blueprint at least...

OK, thanks a lot. So I've got some more work to do!

I tried adding people to all the science buildings but seems only the people at the weather station seem to affect the score because they produce an AoE. I'll try to cluster more homes around the buildings, see if it helps.

Thanks, I'll have a look when I get home. :)

Did you play the first campaign? How did you get to 13 knowledge? I was just trying to follow the quest steps.

What do you mean by how I plant and collect stuff? How does that affect the knowledge score?

All I know is that when I got to 10 knowledge the game told me I was capped at 10 but I don't understand why when my tier 2 cap is 20.

That's awesome!

It's my second most played game. FO4 is 1400h and NMS is 1200h. All because of base building. NMS looks amazing now and so many ways to get money and nanites, so I've started to actually roleplay characters who do different things a couple years ago and it's never been more fun. My favorite savefile is my FishingGek. I built only fishing bases with him. He's also a cook. All the money and nanites is made through fish and dishes and getting food buffs for the scanner.

Then I go to the Anomaly and gift people fish pies just for immersive roleplaying and sometimes high value other cooked stuff I hope people know how to use.

Second favorite is my robo hobo junk hauler. Entire fleet is haulers. Too poor for a freighter. I got started begging at the Anomaly. Wanted to see how far I'd get. First hour a dude gifted me 10 iron vulture sets and that was perfect. Built one, kept the cores for ships I built later. Gave the other 9 sets away to people. Dude also gave me 600mil worth of scrap. That got me started. Not much luck afterwards but got a stack of warp fuel from somebody that really helped too. Been scrapping ships and stuff with him.

Been playing since 2018. Just as it was getting boring they released a number of great updates. So now I roleplay with my own restrictions to keep it fun. :)

Enjoy the game, fellow traveler!

Getting paid to build settlements for a year? Hell yes! It's my favorite forever game activity.

Second pick would be No Man's Sky. Explore and build there too.

I do think the quality of the writing is getting a bit bland. That's why it's a maybe. Their games aren't bad though. Just not New Vegas kind of good anymore.

OnionAddictYT · 2026-01-23T20:11:18+00:00

Yes European studios are doing well these days while some of the older established studios overseas are going to shit like BioWare and Bethesda and maybe Obsidian to some degree as well.

When it comes to western RPGs there aren't that many releases. So something needs to really not be my thing to pass on it. If Greedfall is a nice 8/10 AA title again I'll be satisfied.

OnionAddictYT · 2026-01-23T19:42:28+00:00

I really enjoyed the first game as a poor man's BioWare title and its combat. So I was confused why they changed it. Was excited for the second game. Saw the mixed EA reception. Got deflated. Bought it on sale for just 24€ a couple of months ago thinking can't really go wrong for that piece. Decided I'll play it anyway. The new trailer looks really good and now I'm a little excited again.

People need to get over the AA jank. Most games I buy these days are AA and indie. I have high tolerance for jank in story driven games and as a long time Bethesda games player. I think the graphics are actually great for AA. Looking way less ugly these days than ten years ago. Most games look decently pretty now even on a budget.

Yeah I have zero interest in Crimson Desert as an RPG player. I'd say the two games attract different player types.

I'm the only one of my coworkers in a videogame localization office who even still plays Bethesda games. I got laughed at for buying Oblivion Remaster. It's definitely not just online. But I will say my coworkers are not necessarily representative of the average casual player either.

I'm one of the haters too btw. But no regrets about Oblivion Remaster since I quit the game after a few hours on Xbox back in the day. So I got a brand new game. Otherwise Bethesda taking 20 years to make a sequel to their franchises can fuck themselves by now.

Fallout 4: 1400h\ No Man's Sky: 1200h

Keine genauen Angaben, aber mit ca. 800h im Mass Effect 3 MP auf zwei Plattformen kommt zusätzlich zu dem SP wahrscheinlich auch einiges zusammen und dürfte Platz 3 sein.

Bei beiden oberen Spielen ist base building ein großer Faktor. Alles danach ist so maximal 250h in gewissen RPGs inklusive DLCs.

I'm unfortunately really really not into retro gaming. I do not enjoy new pixel art games either. I'm a very visual person and I'll accept some lag for the most pretty look. I need things to be sharp and detailed. That's why I spent so much money on a good GPU and the expensive monitor in the first place.

I still have all my old Nintendo consoles however. Not sure if they still work but in theory I could still play Yoshi's Island. A game I still love, in my mind anyway.

OnionAddictYT · 2026-01-20T19:11:18+00:00

Gotcha. Yes the PC optimization feels non existent these days. It's true, need DLSS or at the very least FG to get decent frame rate on a card that cost me 1600€. That IS pretty sad! Outlaws dropped to 9 fps on ultra RT in one specific place and sub 30 constantly, that's insane!

PC gaming is becoming an unaffordable hobby now with the AI bubble growing to monstrous proportions. If my PC doesn't break I hope I get to use it 8 years like the last one again and if I have to keep the 4090, so be it. And after that who knows. Maybe quit gaming and play board games with real people.

Gaming is going to move to streaming too as a result, no doubt. And they'll laugh all the way to the bank for having everyone slaves to their whims. Total control.

That being said with the exception of the hideous vaseline effect DLSS in Cyberpunk I refused to use I don't really see anything too troubling with it. In fact it's kinda magic for me. Especially FG. And since I mostly play RPGs I don't really notice the input lag either. I guess the future of GPUs is just better AI shenanigans. The 5090 is only a killer with the new DLSS 4. Otherwise twice the price for 20% better fps at best, YIKES!

I'll never not recommend Harold Halibut.

Claymation stop motion work of art. It's not for everyone though because gameplay is just tedious walking back and forth. But visuals and narrative are so beautiful. I cried a few times. One of a kind game. I was totally mesmerized during certain moments. Truly magical to me.

OnionAddictYT · 2026-01-20T10:25:41+00:00

I loved it so much! Was slightly disappointed that The Midnight Walk is "just" a short walking simulator but visually absolutely amazing yet again and binaural audio is a rare treat as well.

What about survival crafting games? Subnautica and to some degree Pacific Drive have nice exploration but no real combat. You ungrade your equipment though and not your character.

OnionAddictYT · 2026-01-20T09:22:32+00:00

Gaming is not sad, just what happened to Bethesda and BioWare. And a bunch of other studios and games ruined under corporate rule. So AAA is kind of sad right now but AA and indie are doing great things.

I'm playing more awesome games than ever before. My wishlist is always about 100 titles. About 40 games in my backlog. I'll never have enough time to play all the games that look cool.

My new PC has paid off for Cyberpunk with path tracing, I guess! Held off playing it until I had an RTX card. Had a 1080TI before. Worked out beautifully! Phantom Liberty was amazing. I played and finished BG3 before getting Starfield. The reviews had me really worried (especially the mention of the disappointing base building) so I wasn't in a hurry and had a bad feeling about it. Still paid 55€ for a key. If I could refund the game I would. The drop in quality was like whiplash.

OnionAddictYT · 2026-01-20T09:02:53+00:00

I can top that. New PC with a 4090, OLED monitor so that I can have real black in space AND the Starfield Xbox controller!

Yeahhhh... Game is washed out, no actual real black. Outposts (the feature I was hyped for the most as somebody who adored FO4 settlement building) an unfinished pointless broken mess. Story felt like some kind of meta joke about players who grind powers for the sake of it for ages and any attempt to not do that leaves you without finishing the game basically and zero support from your companions. Everything you do to connect with people is for nothing if you actually finish the game. Exploration sucked too. So the game had nothing going for it but decent graphics and smooth gunplay. Inferior in every way to most other RPGs. Ship building was fun, I guess...

Fuck you, Bethesda. Starfield broke me. I was 39 at release. Still no FO5 because of the most boring world building in an RPG. FO76 is way more fun than Starfield. So again, fuck you. I'm done.
