FNV Edit Series - Converting FO3 Mods

Post by **JoeLuck** » Tue Jun 14, 2016 3:06 pm

I keep gettting that the file i need is not in the script folder. I have downloaded the conversion pack twice and the file I supposedly need is not there. What do I do?

I get the message FNVEDIT\TTWCONVERSION.CSV CANNOT OPEN FILE. tHE SYSTEM CANNOT FIND THE FILE SPECIFIED.

You didn't install FNVEdit or the pack into the Root Fallout New Vegas directory (not the Data dir).

My apologies for necro-posting, but I have a question. Did the conversion resources change at some point?

They shouldn't have. Also this topic is always open so no worries.

Hey Roy, thanks for your tutorial Ive finally started to convert fo3 mods and it seems to work, Now I just have an issue with the first conversion I did, It was an armor mod converted for my own personal use, I've edited in the geck for the armor to have DT values and after I've loaded up my game and bought the armor to check, I've noticed that the DR value of the armor remained and the DT description for other armors seems to disappear and reappear in a matter of seconds whenever I equip said converted armor, my question is can I remove the DR values for my converted armor mod? Any insight will be highly appreciated.

Thank You

Yes you can remove the DR values. Also NV supports both and the pipboy will fade between the values.

I used this guide to convert a mod from FO3 to use with TTW and it worked like a charm.

No Talon Regulator Karma Ambushes

Thanks a lot for the guide RoyBatty

PS: Off-topic: who was the 'jenious' in FO3 dev team who thinked that having a karma system should net the player striker teams wanting to kill him/her?

Does the converting of scripts apply to a mod thats an esm? I converted The institute and the voice acting is not there. http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/14449/?tab=1&navtag=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Ffallout3%2Fajax%2Fmoddescription%2F%3Fid%3D14449%26preview%3D&pUp=1

I, too, have the same question regarding esm's and the ttw conversion script. For example, RRCompound Redux for DCInteriors is esm only.. or Arefu Expanded which has both esm and esp. I understand all masters need updated, and I know to run the script on esp's.. run through geck, then remove the dirty edit after. However, do we run the script on single file mods that are esm and on esm'so that include an esp?

Also when recompiling scripts in GECK, do we recompile scripts in the esm files as well?

Thanks!

I'm led to believe the answer to be no on esm's considering that other mods lower on list can override those files. But, I'm not sure. Weird how there's like 20 scripts in the esm, but only one in the esp. Do I recompile the esm scripts too? Sorry, I'm not new to modding in general. I'm just new with modding ttw. This is a new learning curve for me... since I'm not used to altering mods, just making them work.

What difference, if any, does the lack of "Fallout3.Hardcoded.keep.this.with.the.exe.and.otherwise.ignore.it.I.really.mean.it.dat" do for converted Fallout 3 plugins?

Since every version of xEdit needs that data from the game executable to safely edit plugins for that game, I'm assuming there is some relevance to the Fallout 3 plugins that we port to TTW. I've not searched for an answer as yet, just watched the video above and starting to read the PDF. It probably has no bearing at all but... you know... curiosity!
