New Site Layout

All right, I finally found a theme that I like. I still might change the colors to be more Fallout-y, these are just the default hues. Still, you can’t go wrong with blue. It’s the color of the ocean, the sky, and jeans. Also Mirelurks.

The one part I haven’t been able to figure out is how to get the LEAVE A COMMENT link at the top of the post, I’m assuming I just have to add a bit of code somewhere, but since Google isn’t much help I’ll probably ask the theme creators for help. For now you can just click on the post title and leave a comment that way. I suppose it’s not much different than how that normally works, just a little less intuitive.

EDIT: Yeeeees! Got that shit done. Basically just copied the code from the previous theme and changed the theme name.

<?php
if ( ! post_password_required() && ( comments_open() || get_comments_number() ) ) :
?>
<span class=”comments-link”><?php comments_popup_link( __( ‘Leave a comment’, ‘areview’ ), __( ‘1 Comment’, ‘areview’ ), __( ‘% Comments’, ‘areview’ ) ); ?></span>
<?php
endif;

edit_post_link( __( ‘Edit’, ‘areview’ ), ‘<span class=”edit-link”>’, ‘</span>’ );
?>

Anyways, you can find pretty much everything on the header bar. Downloads, forums, wiki, scripts, and screenshots. The sidebar will have extra goodies related to the site, as well as recent forum replies. The theme also has a carousel you can place under the header, but I’m not entirely sure how to make it function properly. In any case, let me know if you have any suggestions or have any feedback that would help make browsing the site easier.

Fallout 3 Mods: Background NPCs – Abe and Martha

This didn’t make it into the bundle unfortunately, since there hasn’t been enough of them recorded. People don’t seem to like auditioning for background NPCs, so I may have to just ask actors to record them as favors to me. Still, I think they’re good roles and add a lot of color to the game.

Here’s one such example, with Ainsley Brennan and Elko voicing this nutso couple living in post-apocalyptic suburbia.

3DNPC Fallout 3 Bundle v0.01

Here’s the first bundled download for Fallout 3. The one here has an additional mod, The Clara Bella, that is not included in the Nexus release – at least until I can replace some of the prostitute voice files that are from New Vegas.

All of these mods can be started in game, but the Vault 101 questline [3DNPC_FO3.esm] is recommended to play from game start.

Lastly, thanks to all the actors and nonoodles who helped in the making of these mods. Some didn’t make it into this release, but will be added in subsequent updates. I also have some mods for FNV in the works which are close to being ready, so look for those as well.
