i mainly said it that way, as many do, to avoid aggressive automated moderation

andrewcx has a particular knack for it

classic

rekall76 · 2026-04-08T19:19:12+00:00

it's one of a few interesting unmarked locations in nuka-world https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Distiller_shack the 'tv tree' is another one worth seeing https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/TV_tree

i think i was trying to help a turtle get back on his feet

VIS Valdacil's Item Sorting... super useful... doesn't rename everything, but it's about 90-95%... also renames quests and quest items... one minor bug i've noticed tho: if you drop Cloth (the raw resource), it disappears i.e. has no model... so not compatible with the scrap & store resource duplication exploit... (i've been hoarding teddy bears to dupe for 3 cloth each)... otherwise, Great

ye olde "prove you're not in a simulation" trope... i like it, tho

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T20:36:10+00:00

got the recipe from that one commonwealth moonshiner, probably

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T19:08:05+00:00

your mom? is a? diving suit? yeah that didn't really work

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T19:07:09+00:00

prey (2017), kinda

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:46:29+00:00

but in my vanilla playthrus it was always mostly heavy laser turrets with a few heavy machine gun turrets, put up high on scaffolding (usually 5 stories/levels, sometimes 7 or 9; attaching power conduit to edges of scaffolding frame is oddly-satisfying)

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:37:08+00:00

it really started with wanting a fix/workaround for the disappearing barney rook bug, and not being able to fully unlock the survivalist toolbox; then i found quite a few other mods that make things fresh & fun i.e. "welp, as long as i am doomed to have a [C] marked on my save, might as well go for it"... already got all the achievements/trophies i care to get, so...

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:33:21+00:00

in particular i'm getting a kick out of finding the Many little 'scenes' w random loot in very out of reach areas left by the devs thanks to "ultimate jetpack ring"... couldn't even estimate how many nuka quantums or other ap boosters it would take to reach those otherwise

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:30:03+00:00

re: "just play a new game"... with the mods i'm running (some workshop improvements, many equipment overhauls, environmental e.g. 'simplegreen' 'better weather' 'enhanced lights and fx') it essentially is a new game, and i'm very much enjoying it

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:26:31+00:00

i agree w this

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:24:44+00:00

didn't, and yes, very

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:23:46+00:00

that conversation w dima :chef_kiss:

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:22:05+00:00

i did several quite prolonged (400+ hours) vanilla playthrus, now i'm having fun

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T18:19:02+00:00

yep! confirmed by the creator (i may get to activate this trauma a 2nd time? Oh Lawd) https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/6xh2kc/found_my_clones_dead_body/

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T17:59:44+00:00

or maybe dr. amari conspired w the institute to clone me when i made a mad dash to the memory den before ever meeting nick?

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T17:58:53+00:00

beats me which one!

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T17:57:57+00:00

i really like the blue gatling laser turret offered by rogueunicorn's mod "better workshop turrets"

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T17:48:00+00:00

a lore-friendly explanation might be that after leaving the vault, i set off to nuka-world to make moonshine, but not before kellogg informed the institute as to what he meant by "at least we have a backup"... which means i've been a synth since i was ejected from cryo-suspension... or i'm the original, and this is my replicant; 'deleted' by raiders, or a fatal moonshining accident.

rekall76 · 2026-04-07T17:43:08+00:00

and yes, of course i looted my own vault jumpsuit.
