Game Skyrim Forum

Hello all,

First post on the Fallout forums. I tried FANV for about an hour about a year ago but I could not get around the graphics looking really dull and boring. But now I want to give it a new try..

I played Skyrim (which suffers from the same graphical issues that FANV does) with a ton of mods to make it look good and so on.

So now, my question.. Which "mod-setup" is the equivalent of Skyrims http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/30936/? configuration? See link for reference... :smile:

Edit: Oh, and what are the essential mods like unofficial patches and so on? /edit

I hope you guys can toss me some ideas! Thanks in advance! :smile:

Well, Nexus is full of ENB presets for FNV too, i never bother, as they do nothing but murder framerates :hehe:

And FNV doesn't get too good framerates to begin with, regardless of your hardware :meh:

Personally i have high-resolution textures
NMC as the base: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/43135/?
and then Ojo Bueno packs on top of it: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/39755/?
and then Nevada Skies: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/35998/?
to getting rid of the orange tinting and improve the lighting. I find that makes the game look nice enough, while still remaining (mostly) playable.

And YUP is the unoffcial patch you'll want to use, only bug fixes, nothing more: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/51664/?

As i have implied, FNVs engine svcks greasy donkey balls, so try to limit the number of scripted mods you have, and the game will start bugging out at a lot lower number of plugins than Skyrim. For me it's only around 150 (the technical limit is 253).

Speaking of which, I remember in skyrim there was some "tools" to use for MCM menu's and such, are there anything like that in FANV?

Modding the game is half the fun!

So FANV is not good?

Follow up question, I assume Mod Organizer and LOOT is the way to go?

The actual content is better, it's just the engine that svcks :hehe:

And yes, MCM was originally created for New Vegas: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/42507/?

Also, it won't hurt to use New Vegas Stutter Remover: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/34832/?
And New Vegas Anti Crash: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/53635/?

LOOT is good for New Vegas too, as is Mod Organizer, though personally i prefer Wrye Bash: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/35003/?

Oh right, and there is a STEP guide for New Vegas: http://wiki.step-project.com/User:EssArrBee/FalloutNewVegas
Might give some good ideas on other mods and tools to use.
