Dev Blog - LitR 7

So, the Nexus has finally released the new dp system, and like most other modlist authors it's not been a boon for me. And that's fair enough. The old system disproportionately benefitted modlist a...

Pre-release 6.5.3 - Testing X-Cell

This is a relatively quick pre-release that I figured I'd drop for anyone wanting to test it before I go out of town for a couple weeks.

The only significant change is the inclusion of X-Cell...

Pre-release 6.5-1 Energy Overhaul

So, after quite an lot of work, I've got an energy weapon overhaul ready for testing. The main feedback I'm looking for on this is balance and feel for the energy weapons, as well as energy ammo ra...

DevBlog - Energy Weapons

So, I've had a week off on family vacation, which means a week away from my pc, so no update on the prerelease. I am still looking for feedback on how the direct hit and bastion change feels. It's ...

Pre-release 6.4.1 Direct Hit & Bastion

The major change this update, is a rework of how backpacks and encumbrance work. See the updated Load Out mod page for a detailed description. The TLDR is that the vanilla 10CW per Strength has bee...

DevBlog: Carry Weight.

Carry Weight in FO4 is a terrible mechanic.

For starters, encumbrance is just bad - it takes the game's most boring mechanic (movement) and makes it more boring. And don't even get me started...

Dev Blog: True Perks Shuffle

So, with the release of True Perks 9, I've finished out some work I've wanted to do on the perks poster for a LONG time. What started with fixing a bug in Dressed for the Apocalypse turned into a m...

Settlement Plans - Proof of Concept

So, with a quick script and some work in fo4edit, I've been able to knock up a working, proof of concept for the settlement plans I mentioned in my previous dev blog for the Graygarden settlement. ...

Dev Blog : Settlements

With the removal of SS2 from the list, there is now something of a gaping hole where it's settlement system used to be. SS2 has been in the list since it first came out, and as a result settlement ...
