Despite being released nearly eight years ago, Fallout: New Vegas still has a thriving modding community, with popular mods being updated and new mods being released.

With May 2018 nearly over, we’re almost halfway through the year. Here’s a look at eight mods that keep the Mojave Wasteland a place full of adventure!

Salt Lake Stories

Salt Lake Stories is a mod that has been in development since 2010. Building off of the stories from the Honest Hearts DLC, Salt Lake Stories adds a large world space centered around the Great Salt Lake, with 38 Quests and 50,000+ pieces of dialogue. The mod features some adult content, and is mostly based on files from Van Buren, the unreleased third Fallout game from Black Isle studios, before the franchise came under Bethesda’s wing.

One of the developer’s interesting choices involving the mod was the choice to remove quest markers, as well as blatantly obvious quest direction, forcing players to explore the world to solve their problems, which was something the original Fallout games implemented very well, with things such as the final encounter with The Master in Fallout having multiple non-violent solutions. A second large choice is a removal of larger action sequences. For the most part, Bethesda’s Fallout games take a less nuanced approach to interactions, meaning that more often then not you will end up fighting people to get your way. Fallout: New Vegas does a good job of adding some ways to get around more violent encounters with various skill checks, but Nexus user Yossarian22 has taken it a step further. Although the mod maker is not a native English speaker, and the mod takes some interesting design choices, Salt Lake Stories was one of the top rated mods of Feb. 2018 on the Fallout: Vegas Mod Nexus.

Live Dismemberment

Have you ever felt like throwing grenades or using a meat cleaver on your enemies should do a little more than just lower their health bar? Then you need Live Dismemberment. This mod, one of the top rated mods for May 2018 on the Fallout: New Vegas Mod Nexus, allows you to dismember your opponents before killing them. This is a concept that appears in Fallout 4 when fighting Feral Ghouls and Robots, when you cripple their limbs, they are removed or visibly destroyed. Live Dismemberment adds distinct effects depending on what limbs are removed. For example, if you manage to cut off or blow off someone’s leg, they would fall to the ground, being forced to crawl.

The developer of Live Dismemberment recommends that anyone who downloads this mod should also consider getting an older mod, BLEED. The mod BLEED, originally released in 2015, but updated most recently in February 2018, completely alters the way damage is dealt by weapons, making them much more life-like in their destructive power. Live Dismemberment is for download here.

The Living Desert

While the Mojave Wasteland is an inhospitable desert full of violent wildlife, murderous raiders, and plenty of other dangers, many people felt the world was too empty when New Vegas released. The Living Desert completely changes that by adding hundreds of NPCs, scripted events, and quest-related events to the game. The entire wasteland feels so much more populated, and the NCR-Legion conflict looms ever closer with the addition of new spawn locations for NCR Troopers and Legionaries, especially at certain locations where their spawns pit them directly into a skirmish.

Not only does this mod flesh out the wasteland with a cast of extra faces, but it also adds many events that are linked to quest outcomes. There are quests now that, if you fail them or resolve them in a way that a certain faction does not like, you will find yourself hunted down by a squad of assassins, determined to put down Courier 6 before they can do any more harm.

Overall, the mod adds incredible depth to the wasteland, and sometimes truly displays the consequences of certain quest outcomes. Doing things for the NCR that directly hurt the Legion can spawn Legion hit squads, or working helping factions regain a foothold in the wasteland can set up checkpoints or prepare ambushes for their enemies. The Living Desert mod is available now on the Fallout: New Vegas Mod Nexus.

Photon Laser Weapon Pack

One of Fallout’s defining features is the idealistic 1950’s vision of the future melded with the post-apocalyptic. In this sci-fi future, energy weapons such as laser rifles and plasma pistols are a powerful commodity. While the Photon Laser Weapons mod may not be the most lore-friendly weapons mod, the weapons added are an absolute delight.

A laser bullpup PDW, a laser bolt action rifle, and a laser pump-action shotgun allow you to take on the dangers of the Mojave with a new, energetic gusto. Blast your way through Legionaries with the powerful shotgun, or pick off enemies with the bolt action rifle, or fight your way through hordes of feral ghouls with the Laser PDW.

If you’re interested in the Photon Laser Weapon Pack, check it out here.

Mojave Wildlife

In a similar vein to The Living Desert, Mojave Wildlife adds many spawns into the world for various animals. With over 100 new spawns for vanilla wildlife based on cut content, the world becomes full of life. A lot of very dangerous, angry life that will attempt to kill you on sight. This, combined with mods like The Living Desert take what many considered to be a scarcely populated region and turn it into something full of humanity and rich, varied wildlife. If only it were that simple; however, because nearly everything in the wasteland will at least attempt to kill you.

Mojave Wildlife also utilizes unused leveled lists from the game, which introduces varying levels of difficulty to what you face depending on the area, rather than your level. It not only has options to change how the spawns work, choosing between the system used in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, but also allows you to choose between random spawning events, called Chanced Spawns. These, the mod creator believe, are a reason that the game often feels sparse. Most of the creature spawn locations in the base F:NV game have a chance of spawning a creature, rather than simply spawning them when you arrive in that location. This mod allows you to toggle these spawns, meaning that if something can spawn, it will.

New Vegas Character Overhaul Not Working

GECK Extender

The GECK Extender isn’t a mod for players as much as a mod for other modders. The GECK, known in the Fallout Universe as the Garden of Eden Creation Kit, is software provided by Bethesda that allows modders to have more direct access to the assets in the Fallout games, and makes it much easier for them to develop, test, and fix mods.

The GECK Extender fixes several bugs that appear in the GECK provided for Fallout: New Vegas, as well as enables various functionalities within the system, such as Level 2 LOD generation while building large world spaces.

If you’re a modder, this mod is one to watch, as it is updated to provide more content and fix more issues involving the GECK. You can get your hands on it now on the Fallout: New Vegas Mod Nexus.

Simple Hotkeyed Weapon Scrolling

Sometimes, you encounter a mod with a vague name, something that intrigues you into clicking on it. Simple Hotkeyed Weapon Scrolling is not that kind of mod. This is a basic, single script which adds something into the game that should have been in the game from the beginning.

If you have weapons selected in you favorite sl0ts, which are connected to hotkeys, this mod allows you to simply scroll through them, rapidly changing your weapons much like you can in games like Half-Life 2 or Fortnite.

You can download Simple Hotkeyed Weapon Scrolling now.

Well Rested Overhaul

Similarly to the Simple Hotkeyed Weapon Scrolling mod, the Well Rested Overhaul is something that just makes sense for the game, although it was much more complex to introduce. The mod completely alters the way that the Well Rested buff, a buff you traditionally earn for sleeping in beds you own or have rented. The overhaul changes how long the buff lasts, where it can be applied, and what effects it adds.

Traditionally, the buff always lasts for 12 in-game hours, regardless of how long you rest. On top of this, the buff normally only adds a 10 percent increase to earned experience, which is a great buff until you reach the maximum level and experience has no meaning. This overhaul mod changes all of this. Not only does the buff’s duration depend on how long you’ve slept (at least, up to a solid eight hours), but it also adds bonuses such as a 10% increase to your weapon accuracy, attack speed, and AP regeneration rate. Lastly, the mod takes advantage of the games several sex scenes. Traditionally, the game simply fades to black and advances the clock a few hours. With this overhaul, these now apply the status of sleeping (something very important for Hardcore Players who need to focus on things like Sleep Deprivation and Dehydration), as well as apply well rested for shorter periods due to the shortened periods of the scenes.

The ability to mod games like Fallout 3 and Skyrim is one of the biggest advantages toward longevity when compared to other, less modifiable RPGs. Fallout: New Vegas -- Bethesda’s most recent post-apocalyptic RPG -- is not an exception to this. With a multitude of mods available on NexusMods, it’s certainly not difficult to find oneself with 60+ mods adding anything from high-resolution textures to overhauls for major factions to new weapons. Today, we’re going to be showing how to completely overhaul Fallout: New Vegas into a harsh, unforgiving, immersive wasteland by using a compilation of graphics mods, content / quest mods, mechanics overhaul, and more. Welcome to 'Fallout: New Vegas - 2014.'

Luckily, Fallout: New Vegas is fairly easy to mod, but due to the large number of mods, this article will be split into six different sections: required mods, graphics, quests/content & mechanics, other mods, how to install Fallout: New Vegas mods, and tips/conclusion.

Note: This mod overhaul requires all the DLC for Fallout: NV along with the most recent update from Bethesda.

This page contains information on visual / world enhnacements available for Fallout: New Vegas.

Installing mods often involves tampering with core game files. Always be sure to verify that your mod sources are trustworthy and that you backup every file you replace, in case you need to remove it later.

Texture Mods
[edit]

The first step to overhauling your copy of New Vegas (after installing the necessary plugins and patches) is to update as many of the in-game textures and models as possible.

NMC's Texture Pack
[edit]

This texture pack updates many of the core New Vegas textures with much better versions. The maximum edition comes with 2K textures for most of it's items, though there are lower-resolution variants available if the larger version compromises gameplay. Does not replace DLC textures, but is compatible with them.

Ojo Bueno's HQ Texture Workshop[edit]

Similar to NMC's pack, the Ojo Bueno bundle replaces almost every in-game environmental texture. The main version of this mod increases resolution to 4K and can be merged with NMC's texture pack. For lower-resolution versions, check out the Poco Bueno Texture Pack instead.

Weapon Retexture Project[edit]

This mod by Millenia focuses on re-texturing several weapons in your Wastelander's arsenal, from shotguns to high-caliber pistols and rifles.

Improved Heavy Weapons Textures[edit]

Following the WRP, this update replaces the vanilla textures for many of the heavy weapons found throughout New Vegas, including the minigun, flamer and several missile launchers.

Essential Visual Enhancements
[edit]

Building off of the Energy Visuals Enhanced mod for Fallout 3, this mod provides new visual effects for wounds, explosions, and character reactions. It also adds several new textures to many of the energy weapons and improves on the firing animations of each.

Wasteland Clothing Hires Re-Texture[edit]

As the title implies, this mod updates many of the armors and outfits that players and NPCs alike can wear throughout the wasteland. It includes 56 updates to male clothing items, 54 for female models and more than 20 new versions of hats, helmets and other headgear.

MG's Neat Clutter Re-textured[edit]

Mental Gear's NCR mod overhauls the look of many of the wasteland's miscellaneous items, from cardboard boxes and bottles to pillowcases and washing machines.

Character / NPC Mods
[edit]

In addition to re-texturing the game world, it's also a great idea to give the NPCs (and your own character) a face lift. Here are a few mods that will help beautify the characters of New Vegas.

Fallout Character Overhaul
[edit]

The FCO by Drumber replaces many of the default character meshes and textures, giving NPCs and character models a more realistic (if not a bit more angular) look. It also includes plugins for several other mods, as well as new hair meshes and a patch that allows players to create Ghoul characters.

FNV Redesigned 2[edit]

This updated version of the original mod by Dracomies also replaces the textures and meshes for most NPCs and character models.

Wasteland Mods[edit]

Once your baseline textures and NPCs have been updated, the next step in revamping New Vegas is to enhance the wasteland with additional content.

Wasteland Flora Overhaul
[edit]

Similar to the Flora Overhaul for Fallout 3 or the Skyrim Floral Overhaul, this mod by Vurt adds more than 100 new plants to the Mojave wasteland. This includes new trees, shrubberies and grass textures that vastly improve the experience of wandering around the desert.

Nevada Skies
[edit]

Nevada Skies adds complex weather and lighting effects to the world of New Vegas. Sandstorms, RADstorms, Toxicstorms, snow, and more add further diversity to the already-rich world adding a new level of immersion. It also includes a handy user interface that allows players to alter the wasteland with specific mood settings that range from lore-friendly to downright wacky. Note that unless specifically stated in the description, most ENB lighting presets will not be compatible with Nevada Skies.

Project Reality
[edit]

Similar to Nevada Skies, Project Reality Mk 1. completely overhauls the Mojave's weather system. Also including an alterable U.I., this is another great choice for adding dynamic weather patterns to your New Vegas experience. As with Nevada Skies, this mod is not compatible with most ENB presets.

Lighting Mods / ENBs
[edit]

Perhaps the most challenging aspect of updating Fallout: New Vegas is enhancing the in-game lighting effects. This can be done in a couple of ways, depending on how comfortable you are altering your games file structure.

Interior Lighting Overhaul
[edit]

As it's name implies, this mod changes the way that building interiors are lit. It adds and alters light sources throughout each location, meaning that places like ruins and abandoned vaults will be darker than inhabited locations such as military outposts or the Strip's casinos.

Realistic Wasteland Lighting
[edit]

For those of us too intimidated or too lazy to install an ENB preset, this mod by
