great mod 10/10
thanks
I get a weird bug every once in a while where I am losing health slowly even though I have no artifacts equipped, I am not bleeding, and I am not irradiated. Not sure if its a quicksave issue or maybe I am irradiated just a tiny bit thats not going away? Its supposed to go down over time right?
Probably radiation, use antirad or vodka. It is not going away. I need to check it for new version, may be radiation level is hid under the radiation arrow or this is another CS bug.
I went back a few saves and it was fine and had it happen again it was radiation at that point so it probably was before too even though I thought I drank vodka but not sure if I remember. Also it seems to override my controls everytime I start the game again, any way I can force it to keep them? Bc I'm assuming I can't put in a actor.ltx in gamedata as that would override some of your stuff. Oh and one good thing I can say is supported is the 4k fonts mod.
your edits to controls should be saving.
run the game as admin and when you're done editing controls, use cfg_save in the console.
you shouldnt have to, but you can even manually edit your user.ltx then start the game.
The game just doesn't launch, it gets stuck on the splash screen and then nothing happens
Install required components. Install gpu drivers. Google for this problem. Search on forums. Try launch vanilla.
You don't even provide a log, lol.
i cant save game, or load previous saves
google?
