It seems when a key in the inventory and the option prompt to pick lock (which seems to be using the option use key too as that word prompt "use key" does not appear) the option for lock picking and using key disappear. The mod needs to be disabled in order for keys and lock picking option to reappear. I was also using simple explosive entry (the prompt for which remained active. I have noticed that it "may" be linked to certain keys or doors as it was working fine for a long time and happened to me two different occasions on different saves. I noted the last time to happened and it was in Nipton town hall at the basement door after picking the key up just before hand. Hope this helps. Love the idea by the way. Cheers
This is a wonderful mod which I endorse! But having the perk and the constant popups asking what to do... can it be done on my end to add a shift + use command to bring up the prompt? Thank you.
Cool mod, thank you - unfortunately I think there is a compatibility issue with Working Vending Machines (https://mod.pub/falloutnv/23-working-vending-machines). With both mods installed, I cannot activate the vending machines and instead get the lock prompt from this mod. Would it be possible to please blacklist vending machines?
Then it must be a subtle one (script stuff? ), since I can't find any conflict in fnvedit(which is reasonable since only records edited are just some containers ). It could be beyond my ability to fix.
Anyway, thanks for your patience! (I believe I left the first comment after I checked fnvedit, with some level of desperation to forget describe any detail)
Yeah possibly if anything else is touching doors. Oh also this is gonna sound like "yeah no crap" but when you said you couldn't "do anything except force lock and exit" just keep in mind you actually need a bobby pin in your inventory to pick a lock otherwise what you described exactly will happen in game even in vanilla.
You can never underestimate people's stupidty :-). I am lost too long in searching cool mods and check fnvedit, even forget the most basic gameplay. Can't remember last time I don't have any bobby pin in inventory.
I really really appreciate your patience. It'll literally took my life to figure out this!
I could use some help. Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I'm level 12 with a wrench and hammer in my inventory and have this mod perk at rank 2 but whenever I try to unlock something, it just beeps at me like vanilla would. I have a level V lock cracker in my inventory too but I still just get vanilla beeps. I've re-read the mod description several times hoping I could figure it out...am I missing something?
I thought uninstall and re-installing the mod might help, it didn't and now I've lost the two perks. I've been trying to use console commands and cheat terminal to get them back but to no avail. FNVEdit says Locksmith's base ID is 0A000DC1, but whenever I try to use the addperk commander, it just gives me an error. I'm not new to modding, but I've never modded New Vegas before so, lots of firsts for me.
But yea, I got no menu originally. Now I'm just trying to get the perks back.
-Edit- Great news! After finally realizing why cheat terminal wasn't working, I got locksmith perk added, tested it and I'm finally getting the menu. I think cheat terminal only gives me the first rank though. But uninstalling and (eventually) reinstalling worked!
Maybe to please add shift+ hotkey to use repair tools or lock cracker? Popup message on each and every interaction with door or container is killing flow. Being able to repair broken locks is a great feature!

I can't get mod added menu. Instead I get vanilla lockpick and couldn't do anything except "F force lock" and "E exit".
I have all the NVSE stuff up to date btw.

Sounds like something is broken for some reason. You don't have a menu?
