Proud to say I still have my original PS1 copy, and it still works!

Y’all have no idea how much I wish this game would get a remake

Don’t even know where I finished, that twitchy and ass-slow Corvette can kiss my ass and it met the fate it deserved when it finally yeeted itself into the bus stop tire barrier.

An early heads-up: either this month or in March I am going to launch the first of at least three public casting calls to see about getting my upcoming Fallout: New Vegas quest mod's dialogue voiced, so keep an eye out for that if you have an interest in voice acting!

Like holy god I cannot believe how much of a difference it makes not attempting to play games on that vibe coded wrecked bucket of you-know-what.

Every day that passes I’m genuinely more and more tempted to put the tux on and leave Windows behind for good. VR on Kubuntu with AMD works SOOOO much better than AMD with Windows it’s unbelievable. I can do Beat Saber for well over a hour on Kubuntu yet the stuttering in Windows makes it unplayable

I too live in rural Virginia, and can absolutely confirm that this is indeed the case.

The writing was awful, and I didn’t think it really reflected the quality of work I feel like I can actually put out, and I wanted to rework it, but then priorities shifted and I just ended up throwing it all up on ModPub. So I kind of just work on it when I feel like it.

Oh no I just made the dialogue forms check if the GetIsID returned any other number than 0 or 1, as it’s a bool it literally wouldn’t ever return anything other than that

Moved the dialogue forms to a quest that didn’t run and set the conditions to where no NPCs would never use them lol

I didn’t know back in like 2015 that you could just, y’know, mark them as deleted then purge them in xEdit

It WOULD be a good way to debut one of the new CORT liveries early 🤔

Very very tempting 🤔

Yeah it's definitely one of those subscriptions that's in the "keep no matter how tight money is" tier, personally!

That said, it's always a little jarring to go on Youtube without it and realize just how ad-infested it is these days

Same tbh

I keep trying to make myself watch the Fallout show and all it does is makes me want to mod again

Washington's Malevolence - Files Journey to Maddox Island in the Chesapeake Bay and experience a large quest mod with its own worldspace, story, characters, locations, and events that the player is sure to never forget. Or, actually...

The beta build of Project Winchester has received an update this morning thanks to a random burst of modding motivation. See the changelog for more.

TIL you can re-order dialogue forms in the GECK by using the arrow keys.

This, uh, this could have saved me a ton of grief when I was making Washington's Malevolence years back

Is it bad I didn't even know those existed? Here I am outside shoveling snow with a cheap plastic shovel

It'd be really funny if I took all the changes and fixes I made to Alton TTW and backported them to the Fallout 3 version, dontcha think?

whenever I accidentally open threads from instagram it looks like the fake social media app they put into a city builder. "Wow, I love the mayor's new policy!" sims-ass website

The crappy thing is, I'm in this weird limbo where I WANT to, yet I can't really make myself make a decision on whether or not remaking a mod that I released in 2018 for a 20 year old game is really the best use of my time.

I dunno, maybe I'm just stuck between somewhat clinging to the past by even entertaining the idea of doing anything with Project Winchester, versus pursuing more lucrative avenues by tackling new projects in newer game engines.

That said, I'm fully aware that the New Vegas modding scene is very much alive and well, and seemingly isn't stopping any time soon. There's still great mods coming out for the game, and more in the pipeline. So clearly there's interest in the old games!

Let's face it, Fallout 3 is almost 20 years old at this point. I'm just finding it difficult to find the motivation to attempt yet another big quest mod for this game, let alone a REMAKE of an almost-decade old quest mod of all things.

And now comes the part where I ramble, so skip this if you like.

A lot of what caused that project to be shelved in the first place was split between a UE5 project (that I also haven't even loaded up in a while) and just the sheer age of the game I was modding.

FO3 mod dev log:

I loaded up Project Winchester (the Washington's Malevolence remake) in GECK, and honestly, it's been so long since I touched that project that I legitimately don't even remember half of what I was doing with it, or where to even jump back into it.

So yeah, it's shelved again!

ABSOLUTELY the kinds of games where you load up your save, play for about 30-45 minutes--- WHOOPS it's 6am

Man I tell you, Cities Skylines has really become my after-work chill game as of late. Just really fun to build infrastructure.

Maybe I should become a civil engineer or something 🤔

Woo job get

I swear, every time I open this app or Reddit or Facebook or really, any kind of social media, I think that last little flame of hope I held for the future just gets a little bit dimmer.

I think it's that sheer tsunami of "everything's on fire and the world sucks" that just overwhelms you.
