is it possible to disable the death slides? I didn't realize how interrupting they would be, I've deleted the videos file in the mod's folder which thankfully skips the unskippable death slide (maybe its skippable with keyboard controls but I'm using a controller which locks me out of using mouseand keyboard) but I still get sent to the main menu.
Also a side question, is this mod permanent? meaning if I uninstall it will it corrupt or mess with the save in any way?
From the description the hardcore system just seems more annoying now, maybe if you increase and decrease rates? Like for example make hunger go down slower, thirst go down faster and sleep go down the same? I realize that there isn't much space for imagination when it just comes to three sliders.
Personally I'm of the opinion that it's sort of meant to be more annoying, and maybe even have some situations where you have one of the debuffs active for a long period of time. You are in a wasteland after all. Appreciate your feedback though and i might test out playing with the sliders more.
As a day one veteran I can tell you know your stuff. My only critique would be the GRA/Base game weapon price changes. I've been using the mod that merges both the GRA weapons and base counterparts(I think Jawyer does this, but there are separate versions too). Imo that is the way to deal with weapons. So maybe make a patch for this is you want to: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/45111
Also for Hardcore Needs I highly recommend JSawyers changes. A faster rate is fair as long as the first level takes longer to reach. Base game is 250 and JSawyer is 400 for the first level for Dehydration(As an example).
Appreciate your suggestions. I think I agree with you on the GRA suggestions, but as for the hardcore needs, I think it's okay to occasionally have a debuff active. Far too often in both Jsawyer and the base game it is possible to play out the entire game without ever having a hardcore debuff active. Gonna do my best to pull of that GRA fix though.
Could you make a separate mod with just the death screens? I find them really cool, but don't really feel like balancing the other changes in my game. Edit: Also, Stewie's Tweaks has an option to get rid of dialogue tags and such without an esp, so you don't actually need to edit every check in the game to make that change. Otherwise, you also create a lot of incompatibility with other mods that edit dialogue.
Yes, I think I could do that. I'll tag you when I get around to doing it. I wanted to do the dialogue thing manually though, because stewie's version breaks all of Christine's dialogue and removes the [ATTACK] and [LIE] dialogue tags. It also does not disable the red outline that appears around text boxes if you're going to fail a speech check.
Very interesting! I loved the great hair perk. I would suggest that instead of making Hardcore need deplete more quickly, they have a lesser heal effect.
