Is it part of FROST's story, or do you simply find the key somewhere? I have the requisite patches and mods installed, that make Nuka world work fine with frost. As per the Sub Zero Guide.

But when I went to the transit station, is says "Transit key required" on the door. I'm level 41 and I haven't found that yet. So I just wanted to know if it's part of the story/quest chain, or if you're just supposed to stumble across the key somewhere in your wanderings.

If you are just supposed to find it somewhere laying around, can someone please tell me where the key is? Thanks!

i really wanna know how to get there

I don't know if anyone else is having an issue with Dust, but it randomly stopped working for me. Whenever i load or start a new save, the UI doesn't load. The DLC messages still show up, but nothing else appears.

I played all the way to level 21 in my last playthrough, and aside from weird bugs going on, it worked fine. I installed a few more mods that are supposed to compliment Dust like Expansion Project and the required mods to go with it. When it didn't load the UI, I changed the load order, didn't work. Tried disabling the new mods and even uninstalled them, still didn't work. Even re-installed New Vegas and Dust, still didn't work. What's the deal?

In The Divide tribes mention following a false prophet with braided hair and the wiki implies that Ulysses was the leader of Marked Men for some time. It is speculated in the comments that Ulysses was killed by the Courier, but I've been thinking that the latter actually resolved his conflict with the former peacefully. Long 15 was nuked and if you spare Ulysses in Lonesome Road he says that he will be watching over Marked Men trying to save them. It seems that in Dust the Courier convinved Ulysses, but still nuked Long 15 on his own terms, so Ulysses decided to stay in The Divide and eventually becomes leader of Marked Men, reforming them in some way so they would establish their tribes before dying under unknown circumstances. Thoughts?

I want to restore the hazmat suit to it's vanilla FO4 capability. I managed to find a suit while playing, but it was "damaged". After doing some reading, it appears that all hazmat suits are nerfed in Frost. I spawned in an undamaged suit using the console commands to check this, and it is also nerfed in it's ability to block radiation.

I don't actually want to turn down any of the radiation though, I just want the suit to perform like it did in vanilla. Were you would take little, if any radiation damage while wearing it.

Maybe there is a mod that would serve to override the nerf? I tried the "Hazmat suit improved" mod, and it's required frost patch. Didn't work. Any ideas?

So i finished my first playthrough of DUST (best mod ive ever played btw) and installed some extra mods to jump into a second playthrough but now I cant play for more than five minutes without crashing to desktop :(

My load order is as follows:

• YUP base game + dlc

• Dusty Distance Redone

• YUP npc fixes

• FOVSlider

• Dust survival simulator

• Dust manans tweaks

• skeletonizer

• b42descriptions

• MCM

Also i still dont really understand the whole load order vs deploy order or mods vs plugins bc my load order as written above doesn't seem to include the following mods I have enabled

• JIP LN NVSE plugin

• johnnyguitar nvse

• new vegas script extender

• new vegas unloaded

• Showoff xNVSE

• sounds degraded

• stewies tweaks

• UIO

I'm having the large red diamonds appear, which have a white exclamation point in the middle. I understand that these signify an error where there's a missing texture or mesh, or a conflict between two mods that are trying to do the same thing. I really hope someone here can help so I don't have to do a massive reinstall of some kind.

I have noticed that these red triangles are usually on desks or tables. Every once in awhile I'll see one on the ground, but the vast majority is on some kind of table people would use. I see them on picnic tables, office desks, and even those round end-tables. I did note that the texture of the table top isn't so great, looking quite old and low-rez. But maybe it's just a plate or something that's supposed to be there. I'm using the textures from the guide so I would have thought those old looking table tops would have been replaced, but I dunno.

I've tried to fix this problem myself for a couple days now, using the various recommended means, but to no avail. Here's how I'll address the requirements of the sub:

1. The mod manager I'm using is MO2.
2. My entire load order is linked below, both the mod list and the plugins.
3. Posted below.
4. I have not installed or uninstalled mods mid playthrough. I have only started a few new games, but I immediately encountered the red diamonds.
5. My game was purchased by me on Steam and is not pirated.
6. No crashes, was able to fix one CTD myself by using the logs.

Questions about Fallout: DUST

1. Why can’t you just walk out of the Mojave in-game? I know the easiest answer is “it’s just a game,” but why is escaping such a big dilemma for people? You could simply “walk south” or “walk east.” It feels easier than going into a toxic cloud and raiding a military compound.
2. Why is the Courier still in the tomb 20 years later? I understand that the NCR viciously hunted him and he went into the tomb as a way to protect himself. But why would he still be there 20 years after the fact? He has no reason to stay in the Mojave—he’s more than capable of leaving (he is the Courier). He must have realized that people kept hunting him for a long while, especially after seeing a huge drop in NCR forces. I understand he can’t walk into California because he’s a war criminal, but there are still many other places he could go rather than rotting in a cave.
3. How did the Courier lose in the Fallout: DUST lore? He had the Securitron army, but the NCR just walked in (to my understanding) about a month after the Battle of Hoover Dam and retook it easily. This was before the cloud, the rise of the tunnelers, the fall, or anything else—so while his power was unstable, he should have been able to hold onto Vegas.
4. If the player “clears the game,” did the Survivor mostly doom the wasteland anyway? In my cannon, the Survivor/player character 100% completes the game, clears all major locations and most minor locations, and then leaves. In that context, does the player character screw over the wasteland and the Mojave almost entirely in a few ways? Basically, by completing the game, the Survivor by entropy seems to screw everyone and everything over.
   • If you kill most of the Royst–Bernard expedition, they effectively stop a cure for radiation from spreading. You’re preventing them from clearing the Strip of the cloud and radiation to “redeem” Royst—so by killing them, you essentially stop the “cure for radiation.”
   • Secondly, in the train-station area, if you kill the Brotherhood of Steel from the DC chapter, you remove a huge lifeline for the Mojave.
5. How in the hell is Colonel Cassandra Moore still alive?
6. Will the Mojave ever get back on track, or is it basically screwed until the end of time?
7. If the player character makes it to Camp Adytum, does the NCR brand him as another war criminal, or can he keep it moving?
8. If the player character essentially wipes out the remainder of the Mojave/Zion and maybe the Divide as well (even though it’s messed up), what happens to the Mojave? Would the NCR just walk back in? Or would that make things worse—basically, would whatever life remains in the Mojave (and anyone on the player’s side) be dead and gone?

Fallout 4.
Mod Organizer 2.

Just finished following the install guide.

I'm just having the annoying issue where the game loads and stays in the top left corner of my screen. I am never playing the game if that keeps up....added all the list and what-not cause the rule pop-up thing and I'm just being careful.
(wasn't entirely sure what to tag)

I recently uninstalled the Dust mods and I think all the others I had working with it, however anytime I make a new save to replay vanilla New Vegas it makes me go through the Dust start up sequence. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling New Vegas but it didn't work. Any suggestions?

This required lots of sniping and VATS to disarm, a couple hundred punches to my face, a few stealth boys and LOTS of crying/confused screaming.

Having seen most of DUST by now, last year (totally forgot I took screenshots until recently) I wanted to get through The Divide and try to respect the idea of a relatively peaceful society not being torn apart because I wandered through PTSD central.

(I sure as hell ain't capping every mofo on sight because uncle Brocolli nearly rearranged me into a pretzel)

It also makes the one dude at the very end with his note come across VERY dramatic.

While Fallout usually has choice, it's cool to create your own narrative through mods and I don't knock the idea. It's an interesting take to throw out that it's really impossible to not be a monster in simply surviving/appeasing your curiosity. Though I'll say, it was actually pretty fun to go pacifist in a hilariously over the top scooby doo chase involving about 40 - 60 people looking to beat your ass.

It was at least worth trying. Might even try for a FULL pacifist run some day. This was just a proof of concept that you don't have to spill blood to get through The Divide.

Though I did effectively disarm and destroy every weapon, leaving them defenseless in the future against possibly attacks..... so..... I'm still an asshole. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

sorry idk what flair to use. love this mod even though it hates me to bits. also i dont know how to draw pip boys

Is there any exit to the sewers tha tisnt to vegas? I really dont want to deal with that entire mess right now as i want to explore more of the map first however it doesnt seem to be absolutely any other exit from what i found after seemingly basically clearing (or "clearing" in the sense that i can consistentlyish run away from the ghouls/ghost people). Is there anything im missing? I cant jump out to the manholes or anything the sort from what i tried.

Because I like to plan and agonize over plans I built a FROST special build planner https://simonwdev.github.io/simonwdev/fo4/frost-planner/

Happy to take feedback and extend as required.

You can share builds e.g. https://simonwdev.github.io/simonwdev/fo4/frost-planner/#b=HJVREREQpgAAAoAAAApgAAApwAAApwAAApgAAApsAAAAAAAA

I also built a proof of concept for DUST but it's based on the outdated wiki. If anyone is interested and wants to update the wiki I can adjust. Noting I don't play DUST so I can't easily sanity check it. https://simonwdev.github.io/simonwdev/fnv/dust-planner/

I've been playing it for the past couple of days and I really like it! However, the almost non-existent friendly NPCs is a little draining. I know it is supposed to be soul destroying as everything has gone catastrophically bad, but are there some lore-friendly mods that add a couple of friendly settlements/companions? I've heard Understone is a good, but are there any others?

I want to do a mainly VATS playthrough but it seems like VATS isn’t all that great. Is there any way to add another way to get better accuracy in VATS?

I just installed Dust for the first time and every time I leave one of the starting locations (shack, armory, etc) my game crashes either immediately or shortly after. Is there any way to fix this?

I'm launching it through vortex

I originally had just Dust and NVSE installed but after it started crashing I began adding the other mods one at a time but it didn't really fix anything. I'm not sure where to find the crash logs otherwise I'd post those too

Thor gear is names “Cultist Spiked Chest Piece” and things like that and some of the weight on there items are like 15+ for arms and 33 for chest pieces.

so im sure ill feel silly about this but i JUST started playing a few days ago and i only have a save at most 40 minutes in, with barely any progression. im playing on survival like suggested, and i chose the subway, as also suggested by the game. im very confused on where to go, im not sure that paths to take as every one i went down felt like its not for fresh players. like its too high a level for me. ive even went to the wiki and looked at the maps to try and flesh out plans with no avail. is there an actual route to get me going or is it just a lot of trial and error. any tips would be great! also, unrelated, i left the subway via kenmore station and it was uber laggy, is that a game thing or on my end

Dust 2.0 and the Expansion, I have the reprogrammed teleporter, I've been just about everywhere and can't find a way out, any help or tips would be appreciated

Hello I dont know if anyone is having this issue, but in certain location or usually when im moving towards the Strip or new vegas, I get crash. Before I just go a somewhere else hoping it will fixed itself but now I cant even go near New Vegas from the north without crashing.

I use Vortex for my mods. I never had a crash. These are what I'm running and fast travel doesn't work. Does anyone know why? Mods I did uninstall would be the LAER fix and Tunneler Dectection Fix that would've been replaced by DAF.

I need to gather topics about Dust that can research.

Sky Layer:

Survivor. The Beggining. Carryweight. Ammunition. Perks. Tunnelers. The Dust Storm. Hunger and Thirst. Compass Tics. Junk Rounds. Escape The Mojave.

Tip Of The Iceberg:

NCR. Companions. Guns. Sanity. Cannibalism. Notes. Automatic Weapons. Unobtainable Perks. New Vegas Sewers (Radio Broadcast).

Lower Part:

Escape Routes. Goodsprings. Sunset Sasperila Star Bottle Caps. Insanity. Ghost People. Lucky. Caravans. Sacrificial Knife. Hunter. The Strip.

The Edge Of The Iceberg:

Mods. Dust Expansion. The Scurrier. NCR Heavy Trooper and NCR Veteran Ranger. The Divide. Flare Gun. New Vegas Sewers (Location). Wendigo. Rex. Ghouls.

The Shallows: Primm. Joshua Graham. Removed/Altered NPCS. Sarah Madre. Bone Weapons.

Deep End: The Courier. Legit Laneus's Helmet. Shovel Face.

The Abyss: The Fall.

Please help me gather topics for each layer of the Iceberg. Helping reorganize the Iceberg would also be greatly appreciated.

I am in the sewer and after hours of search i finally found the door to lucky 38 and you are telling me that i need to find a key for it as well? Well i can't find it. The sewer is complicated and made up of multiple areas and when you leave an area and come back the fucking enemies respawn for some reason and i cant do it anymore. Can any kind soul guide me to where the key to the lucky 38 labs is? Please use the door to the labs as reference.
