Something keeps triggering Dogmeat scene [solved: bad mod design]

[Rooker]

[Edit: Problem solved. Bad mod design]

 

I keep having a scene starting for no apparent reason between my character and Dogmeat. I thought it might be RSE Shenanigans and removed it, but it happened again anyway. There's nothing in the console to give a clue, but I did leave the AAF Wizard GUI open and, when a scene triggered, I got a thing showing a scene was starting (see screenshot). I *think* the scene is being triggered when I press Shift + F11, but I could be wrong (this opens the ENB GUI in my setup).

 

Anyone know what the heck is going on here?

FYI this is strictly MY experience:

 

From what I've seen, ENB's use way too much resources. I seen this in Skyrim quite a bit. ENB's are beautiful to look at, but that's about it. I'd rather my resources in the game go to quests & adult mods.

Probably f11 is set to run random aaf scene

God, I should have thought of that. There it is.

 

 

It's bad enough when modders hardcode hotkeys, but this isn't even disclosed anywhere so people will know why their existing hotkeys start doing bizarre things like this! Just appropriating a button, especially one of the frigging F buttons, is just amateur bullshit!

You are right, it is not documented (I actually made the effort of looking it up). Happy you figured it out, well done.

 

However, I do hope that, at some faraway point (i.e. when you actually start coding shit), you will begin to comprehend just how inappropriate it is to call dagobaking doing "amateur bullshit" with "bad mod design"

I've published over 50 mods and installed and used well over a thousand, so I have plenty of experience with modding. As I said, setting hard-coded hotkeys (not changeable with an in-game GUI) is bad enough. Taking over one of the F keys so it does something unexpected, especially without warning users it's been done, is just a stupid thing to do. Those are the first buttons most users are going to rebind for their own use. Might as well take over the WSAD keys while you're at it.

Feel free to correct me, but isn't the F11 key ALREADY in use by the game?

I don't think so, but it is used by Steam for screenshots.

What diarrhea of the mouth is this?

 

You literally showed a screenshot of a config file that demonstrates that the hotkey is in fact NOT "hard-coded". ?

 

But, yeah, you have a point about not disclosing it... oh wait! not! There it is, explained right in the User Guide: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kzI5mvBOD3xixs0RaKyCwBfZqCC-cCybJH_wJjgWLIU/edit

This only makes you look worse since you should then know better what it's like to make mods for free and then have to occasionally hear from people with shit attitudes.

Since we've already established that you don't even know what basic things like "hard-coded" mean, can we alter the solved tag for this thread to "User Malfunction"?
