Favorite screenshots?

I've always liked the look of the Drifter Outfit. Pity that you can't wear anything over it.

Doesn't AWKCR let you do so?

That is a really good screenshot!

I am a little jealous, I kind of stopped using tattoos as in my game they just don't look that good.

"Congratulations on winning the city plan contest!"
:acute
I am glad you are sticking around and appear to be having a good time! :dance2

It makes everything so much more fun! :good It isn't all about solving problems:declare its as much about sharing :drinks our enjoyment and appreciation with the authors with what the authors have shared with us. About the only thing, we can give back :rollseye

hahahaha @parrotheada1a does really good screenshots also. :friends
 
Thanks on both counts.

Yeah I'll be sticking around. Like yourself I have a lot of hours in the game and I always thought SS was for people who didn't like to build and I love to build. So now that I know better I'll be here deigning cities.

Tats really only work on grubby raider type characters imo.
 
Completely and utterly nuts!

I have always used: :umnik2
NPC's Travel which can make for some big battles near Diamond City
This year I added Super Mutant Redux hahaha, and already had a Minigun Suite installed :dont
SKK-Settlement Attack System was also installed
Then a user asked about MoreAttackersGetOffmyBuildZone so I thought why not :unknw

Hahahaha, I don't know which combo did this but there is no way to really describe it. Never-Ever have I had a battle like this at any level much less at level 30.

I mean the entire expanded settlement was covered with them. Sadly, a few settlers too.
Ha! but all the remaining Settlers now have miniguns!

I must have played this one battle for 4hours "I died a lot" :crazy before I could beat it. I had to spawn in about 50 frag grenades at that. No crashes either, amazing fun!

I had just looted the pile behind the character "all the piles had several versions + multiple drops of somewhat advanced miniguns from that mod" and there were three more plies with as many + other random scattered at all the choke points of the settlement.
I didn't even know the game could spawn in this many npc's at one time :unknw

:slow I might need to rethink :scratchheadthat Minigun mod running alongside Super Mutant Redux :nea

You ever tried WOTC Ray? If you like big battles you'll love that, but and it's a big but, it is pretty unstable and more or less hogs the Papryus so running it with anything else script heavy will have you staring at the desktop fairly regular.

Anyone who plays F4 should install WOTC, an unbreakable power armour mod, modern firearms, get themselves up to level 50 or so and head to the glowing sea, at least once. It's a crazy experience.

That was what I was doing pre-Sim Settlements.

WOTC + ROTC = CTDOTC

Yeah I'm very conflicted because I find the game outside of settlement building very boring without wotc. I'm trying out other mods that increase spawns that I can use alongside SS. Currently I have SKK Combat Stalkers installed and it's decent and you get some good fights, but it lacks the mayhem of wotc. It ain't script heavy so no CTD at least.
 
So I've been making a new Settlement at Taffington. Built a boardwalk clear across the pond. So far there's just a couple houses, but that will change. Hope those gigantic skeeters don't bother the settlers too much.

Plus I gave Ivy some nicer makeup. She can't be laying waste to raiders without looking good doing it. Mac will not let her.

And thanks for the kind words Raybo. :good

@parrotheada1a I've become a fan of building outside the build-area. Put a shack bridge across where the bugs are and a few heavy turrets - it helps a lot. :cool:

@WetRats @Phil_T_Casual - have you guys tried Quicker Cell Respawn? It won't be as violent as WOTC yet it does make the Commonwealth feel more "alive". As in, there's plenty of raiders and supermutants moving into the area. ;)
 
No but i use GCM, it's a real handy tool. And you can change cell respawn time from within it.

oooh, that l did not know. I already use GCM to do things like increase damage taken and given and decrease experience gains so this is right up my ally!

Great suggestions, hahaha, just fun to keep the game changing and challenging :focus

I am really a settlement kind of player and like the building, stories, and NPC’s the most.
Still, a super good gunfight now and then is “a good thing” I like the near epic battle better than the little ones. I always travel with 2 NPC’s + dog so better to have the enemy buffed up a bit.

Now, @parrotheada1a that picture of Ivy is pure magic. My interpretation of her looks like a 15 year old boy trying to make a playdough version of a playboy model :punish hahaha!:crazy

oh, the SKK settlement attack mod brings in Raider Virtabird attacks. Those might be my favorite.:pilot

Take a switchblade with a non-brawler PC setup into Gwinnet Restaurant. If you happen to spawn a legendary Supermutant you will really sweat. *slicesliceslicesliceslice*

Then when you go through the basement to the brewery, having a couple of legendary Mirelurks spawn is also tough. I hit one enough times that it went into the dead space between the walls before I could kill it. (Switchblades do sod-all damage, even with my Raider Blades mod.)

Damn testing. I am not a runner of melee characters! Though that might change, it was pretty intense.

Haven’t had a chance to see WetRats video yet.

Well thanks! So I was playing around with LM today and learned a couple new things.... I made a couple new presets for Magnolia...

This has the same base but a couple different facial tweaks and longer hair.

And I got a great shot of Mac up near the stage enjoying the show.

Let me know which ones you like... I might have to release a pack of some better ones that I've done.
