    I've got a few questions for more experienced modders.

    1. How do I alter the experience rewarded? I've seen mods that change the experience rewarded on the hardest difficulty to be like the experience rewarded on the easiest difficulty, but I can't figure out how to do it myself.

    2. Where are the scripts that control Lockpicking? I've been trying to find them so I can make a Perk that increases the Force Lock chance, but I've had no luck so far.

    3. Which script controls the range at which enemies are noticed? I imagine it's controlled by Perception, but none of the scripts seem to be appropriate.

    4. Where are the scripts that control Sneak? As with Lockpicking, I'm adding a Perk that plays around with the functionality of Sneak, but I can't for the life of me find the relevant scripts.

    I hate to bump my own post, but I'd like to assume that Eyebrow Dog pretty much short circuited everyone's brain. I've looked at all the various scripts and game settings, but none of them are obviously referring to anything that might help me out. :|

    So I finished the game today.... overall I approve. The whole flipping through clips of what you did in the game while narrating it all epic-like was pretty sweet. Wish they had a playthrough after you beat it, like Oblivion or Morrowind did.

    I just finished it. I didn't even fucking get that. Not even fucking that. WTF?

    Hooray for the PS3 patch (even though it should have had Trophies and incorporated notifications for God's sake in the first place)!

    Now I have a reason to restart the game. Lost interest during the holiday rush.

    I'm loving the GECK so much. Having Power Armor add between 150 to 200 Hit Points makes the most incredible difference in combat. When I see an Enclave patrol consisting of three soldiers, I've actually got to run for cover. I've actually got to disable their arms and heads in the hopes of lowering their accuracy enough to give me a solid chance of killing them. There's now a genuine "Oh shit!" feeling when I have to fight them.

    And that, sweet America, is how it should be.

    Its more awesome to drop a few MIRV's and their ammo around megaton, then get everyone pissed off and see if they pick it up to use :winky:

    You should totally get that nailed down mod to, Super Mutants are fucking brutal with that :D

    Also, I remember the question being asked a thread or two ago about if containers respawn goodies later down the road.

    I can now confirm they do, first visit to Canterberry commons had the mailbox empty, returned twice now to find it having random stuff in it.

    Containers that you have looted will NOT respawn though, those a locked in, same lock happens if you put something in an empty container and then take it out.

    If the container was never touched by you it will be rerolled though.

    That's how I understand it working (it's the case Oblivion aswell).

    Anything that causes a container to be registered in your savegame will stop the it from respawning.

    EDIT: Ohh yeah and the game rerolls ALL untouched containers, even containers with items in them, so if you open a container and it contains nothing worth having you can return later and it will contain new stuff. Opening the container doesn't save the content, it's only saved if you take something from it or put something in.

    I just beat the game after playing for a while as my second character. That wasn't a final fight; that as an execution. They could have at least revealed him to have gotten supermutant strength and acid spit from the radiation. They could also have revealed that he is really Zore from space and wants to conquer humanity. He couldn't do it before because his ship had crashed right before the war started so he lost all of his alien weapons. He managed to becom a member of the Enclave government and slowly rose through the ranks. He opposed Eden because Eden's methods would end up killing him. At the end, he reveals he has alien power armor and a firelancer.

    Or at least have Frank Horrigan's angrier brother step out from hiding to kick your ass. Seriously, two goons to stop me? I just wiped out at least 30 of your soldiers getting here, and Liberty Prime is waiting outside just bursting at the seams with nuclear fucking bombs. Either put up a fight or realise how badly fucked you are.

    On that note:
    I think I've had a small epiphany regarding the ending sequence with Liberty Prime. The two most common comments I'm hearing are as follows:

    1. Watching Liberty Prime kick ass whilst shouting jingoistic slogans was amazingly fun.

    2. Having no real involvement due to Liberty Prime butchering everything in sight wasn't much fun.

    One thing I noticed is that you follow Liberty Prime through a heavily dense urban area with a few walkways above filled with Enclave soldiers. What if after the first bridge crossing while following Liberty Prime, one of the buildings collapses, blocking you from following Liberty Prime. At this point Gallows or whoever else points out an alternate route you've got to take that will eventually get you back to Liberty Prime. Except that this will involve fighting through buildings bursting at the seams with Encalve goons. The good news is that because you're fighting in a partially ruined building, you can still watch Liberty Prime slaughter.

    This time, you'll be kicking ass also, just on a different scale. It solves the issue of involvement, as you've got your own fight whilst Liberty Prime has it's own. Furthermore, you still get to watch Liberty Prime bellow out "COMMUNISM IS THE VERY DEFINITION OF FAILURE!" whilst plucking Vertibirds out of the sky like drunken beetles.

    Reminds me of the way half life 2 would handle something like this, don't ask me why. I like your idea, it sounds fun because I get to actually be involved! Although I still think Liberty Prime not being ready and you having to pilot him is the most fun sounding alternative, the real issue for me is no final boss thing. Just some dude and two enclave soldiers in a room who you could probably take out with a 10mm pistol.

    I think I found an easier way to do it. I just looked at how the Mesmetron cast the effect. Now to make the .32 caliber pistol useful!
    Edit: At zero damage, the gun, it does nothing.

    How does the crit effect "water heal" work? Does it heal the enemy or me on a critical hit? I'm wondering if I can give it a 100 percent crit chance.

    Edit: I guess I can always create a new effect.

    Well, if you look at the code for the Dart Gun, I'm pretty sure you'll see the code that allows it to cripple legs on impact. Simply have a weapon that does 0 damage, but as a side effect also heals however much a Stimpack heals. Make the ammunition fired use the same model as the Stimpack, and hey presto!

    Also, I'm fairly sure that "water heal" refers to drinking water. I could be wrong though; right now trying to work out which variable does what for Sneak is turning my brain to mush.
