📋 About This Mod

This mod is an extension to the New Vegas Script Extender (NVSE). It adds 900+ new functions, which can be used in GECK scripting and (in some cases) as conditions.

As of v40. 00, this plugin also includes all the functions from the (now defunct) Lutana NVSE Plugin, made by the venerable LuthienAnarion.

For a full list and documentation of the new functions, please visit  this page.

Additionally, this mod includes numerous engine bug fixes/tweaks, and restores several broken game features.

Optional game patches (toggle-able via ..\Data\NVSE\Plugins\jip_nvse.ini):

  • []bIgnoreDTDRFix - Fixes the Ignore DT/DR effect (mostly found in some melee/unarmed weapons), which is completely broken in the game. In addition, modifies the game's damage-reduction calculation, such that DT is subtracted BEFORE DR is applied.
    • []bEnableFO3Repair - Brings back the FO3-style item repair menu to FNV. The max repair amount of items will be capped to the player's Repair skill. For example, with 75 skill, items can only be repaired for up to 75% of their max health, as opposed to 100% as before, regardless of skill level.
      • []bEnableBigGunsSkill - Restores Big Guns as a fully-functional, playable skill.
        • []bProjImpactDmgFix - Fixes an engine bug where weapons which fire projectiles that explode upon impact (i.e. Missile Launcher, Grenade Launcher, etc.) would only apply the damage from the explosion, even on direct hit, ignoring the weapon's hit damage.
          • []bGameDaysPassedFix - Fixes an engine bug where the 'GameDaysPassed' and 'GameHour' global timers would "freeze" and stop increasing in game real-time (they would only increase when sleeping, waiting or fast traveling). This issue directly affected hardcore needs build-up, which would also freeze in game real-time.
            • []bHardcoreNeedsFix - Fixes an issue where some hardcore needs could, for undetermined reasons, end up having negative values. This resulted in hardcore needs not increasing at the correct rate/ at all.

              [*]bNoFailedScriptLocks - Fixes an engine behavior where

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have NVSE installed first — JIP LN won't work without it. Follow a guide if you're new.

  • If you're a mod author, check the GECK wiki or forums for a list of the new functions — the description doesn't list them all.
