Medical braces

[GrantSP]

It has been so long since I actually ran FWE with the full triage option on and I can't remember if what I'm seeing is correct or not.

Also looked through the FWE forum and online docs to check but I'm still unclear.

 

When I get crippled, as I am now, I have some braces in my inventory but when accessing the triage menu it tells me my right and leeft legs are crippled and I can't repair them because I lack braces.

 

I see no conflict in xEdit that might have changed their use, so is it just because I lack the specific medical perk/knowledge?

Does that mean I do need to find a doctor?

 

This is just the F&L initial run through with only the UI section installed. I went the Alternate start path and I'm in the RobCo factory where a couple of molerats jumped me.

 

I'm probably going to redo some of this since I don't think my UI is working as it should, I can't seem to get aHUD to function correctly, but in the mean time I just need to clear up my lack of knowledge on this.

You need the FWE-added Wasteland Doctor perk to heal limbs. Do you have that perk?

[GrantSP]

No. As I said it was so long ago the last time I used the FWE triage system and this was just after a few minutes of running in the UI section of the guide.

I had a sneaking suspicion that was what it was but I couldn't find it conclusively said. Everytime I read about that perk I was imagining that perk only made healing crippled limbs better, not available.

 

Once again, thanks for your assistance. I've set my Skyrim game aside for the time being and am longing to get this set up correctly so I can experience it in all it's glory. So far so good.

There is a lot of useful information about FWE on their Google docs page. I've summarized a little of the key parts on the the ancillary pages to the guide (the control panel menu subguide and hitkeys subguide), but there is a lot there that can be useful in understanding the myriad menu choices in FWE.
