Mods and steam :S

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 10:50 am

Hi guys :)

I'm pretty lost here, I always used FOMM to install my mods, and run my game through, but now that its on steam, I'm totally confused!
IS there a New Vegas Mod Manager already?

If now, on Steam, how do I install and run my mods? Is it the same as before, and going through the data files (something I've never done before)...

Yes, I know I know, I'm an idiot :)

Looks like Valda has Wrye Flash going now http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1129389-relzwipzbeta-wrye-flash-nv/ I haven't been able to try it out yet though, so I don't know how well it works at the moment.

No NV FOMM yet.

Mods are installed trhough the data folder, yes. Just look at the mod file structure and make sure you install accordingly.

The Readme files will tell you exactly what to do in most cases, that's really a requirement for any decent mod in my book. Anyway, if you're installing a mod that uses only an esp. file, then just throw that in your data folder. If the mod in question includes new meshes or textures, throw those folders in your data folder, if you have folders like that already then say yes to overwrite. In most cases that's all you need to know, but check the readme if you're uncertain.
