Alright, so I don't have the time today to do one of my full scale updates, and to be honest, the material for the real update isn't finished developing yet. But I wanted to take the time to post a quick thing to explain some of the developments that you've been seeing me squee and flail about in excitement for.
First, remember last update when I said that I had to abandon that hard-earned chameleon armor that I got at Weston because it was bugged. See, this is what I was seeing every time I'd access my Pipboy.
So yeah, my Pipboy isn't all that useful. Lol, normally, I'd take it, but with SMode, you really need access to your Pipboy for inventory management, needs, and hello, the map. I looked up the problem in forums and this issue seemed quite polarizing, with some people saying it's intended and to suck it up you're in chameleon and others saying it's not. While I get that it is invisible, I was scratching my head because I don't see Bethesda really going all out with the lack of compromise. So I can only access my Pipboy when I'm not in Stealth? That didn't really make sense to me. Especially for maps. So, like I said, I ended up removing the mods and stowing the armor piece.
When I reloaded my game, my fiance and I decided to go and see what was up with this armor and I put it on. We then got this.
I think this is how it's supposed to work with the Chameleon armor. So yay bug got fixed. Now, it is still boooooooogy as sheeeet. I have to wait for a brief lighting change to access my Pipboy and it takes some getting used to and sometimes yes, the image is overexposed and wonky, but at least I can use the armor, which boosts my stealth by 20%.
With my new awesome stealth in place, I decided to explore something I had seen happen at Weston when I exited the plant. I saw something crash near Oberland. Like a ship. :D
Aliens! Following the smoke I saw led me to a funky looking spaceship burning in a crater.
The trail of debris led me to a cave and inside the cave was a wounded alien and I deaded him with a shot to the brains cause aliens are ewwww. I took his blaster and yay!
So, this concludes what I did. Glad I'm able to use the armor piece. This helped me a great deal in the coming session. Where we have a game changer...
