Hi, wasnt sure if something like this exists already, and if it does please point me in the right direction.

Im looking for a mod that would make guns and ammo to be rarer and cost more and make more npcs have melee weapons (unless it wouldnt make sense, like the BoS) any mods that i have seen that do this also do a bunch of other stuff im not interested in.

also if anyone knows any mods that add fun places to explore and loot like the grocery store or scrapyard in FO3.


EDIT: thought of one more, im also looking for a pack brahmin mod, the only ones i have seen have some sort of bug that would ruin it, like not being able to have them wait even when you tell them you want to part ways.


EDIT2: I don't expect anyone to run around searching for these, only looking for anyone that might be using something like these already .

There are mods that alter NPC loadouts and make scavenging in the Wasteland much more difficult. XFO has tweaks in this area as well as Arwen's which make just surviving in the game much more difficult. Don't have links to those but both have fairly popular threads here in this forum so a search should yield some results for you. XFO at least is modular so you can pick and choose what aspects of the mod you want to use and which ones you don't care for.

If you're looking for mods that add more exploration and dungeons to the gameworld, http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=38719 comes highly recommended. Virtually it's own free DLC now given how much content it includes. http://newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=40980 also seems to be gaining popularity in the added encounters modding area but I haven't tried that one myself so I can't say how good/bad it is really.

Puce Moose's quest mod (search his name), and mine, The Collector. They are both great! Search the nexus for them.

Okay, thanks i'll try those when i get home and report back .

XFO seems like a great mod, now i just need something to change gun rarity (i'm pretty sure it only does ammo caps and medical supplies, which is still good though)

haven't had a chance to play any of the mods, just read the details, they all sound really nice, i'll edit this post after i play them .


Thanks again for the suggestions .
