Fallout: New Vegas!

never get a bethesda game on console for taht very reason, i'm a minimalist when it comes to mods, but i still use them (never gameplay changes - just graphical boosts/tweaks)

crazyeyesreaper · Dec 18, 2010

the only game that allows mods on console PERIOD is Unreal Tournament 3 on PS3 you can use custom characters created by PC users other then that no console game allows mods and most likely consoles never will do to there closed nature and the face no Developer wants modders messing with there games on console potentially causing performance issues and perhaps worse situations. due to it being a different platfom, compared to PC

ste2425 · Dec 18, 2010

hmm true i never really used mods on pc but every now and again there was one that caught my eye thanks for the info like

Dead Money DLC released for XBOX 360 today. it cost 800 points. it's a timed-exclusive so PC & PS3 owners be patient.

Your a victim of a raw deal, strapped with an explosive collar, and given an objective break into the vault of the Sierra Madre.

trailer.

Hey can anyone help me as to where t put the mods and in which directory. t does not seem to show after copying them to the main directory. We buy our games in the physical format here, so there is no steam directory.

BumbleBee · Dec 24, 2010

IGN reviewed Dead Money DLC.

source.

4-6 hour story, level cap raised, tedious quests, no new armor or weapons, very buggy. 6.5/10

So I just got FNV today while it was on sale. Need mod suggestions. Mostly looking for the best texture pack out there. But other suggestions are great too, want to keep it basically simple as I'm not looking to have to worry about conflictions. When I played FO3 I used NMC Texture Pack, Fook2, and MMM. Was a pretty simple load out, since fook and marts had a lot of other popular things like fellout built in, I liked it as fixing conflicts was easy. So trying to stay away from mods that add a single weapon or something.

entropy13 · Dec 25, 2010

NMC's texture pack can be used with New Vegas as well. Besides that pack you will need this. If you want though you can go with Detailed Normals instead.

1Kurgan1 · Dec 25, 2010

To be honest I wasn't the happiest with NMC's pack, I'm not sure if it was the game engine or his textures, but with my setup I could only use the textures for people with average computers and even then I got lag sometimes.

I was looking at both those, but was hoping there was a option besides that, especially since it wasn't originally intended for F:NV.

Wrigleyvillain · Dec 25, 2010

I notice a pretty nice diff with Detailed Normals incl. Taller Grass. Only one Ive tried so far. Also raised iMaxAnisotropy from 8 to 16 in ini and upped FOV to 90. Looks pretty good for old Gamebryo engine and also compared to FO3 but that was a couple years and a lower quality display ago to be fair.

Few other tweaks I need to try...

P.S. Why can't I find the damn flower and root yet? Cleared out schoolhouse and cemetery and looked around vicinity. Almost-first-quest FAIL lol

Sunny asks the courier to retrieve a xander root near the abandoned school house, and a broc flower from the Goodsprings Cemetery. (Both plants can also be found on a hill directly south of the campfire where she waits, so there is no need to travel to the schoolhouse and cemetery to complete the quest.)

Never did that quest because it was a tutorial quest (all of the quests you get in Goodsprings, besides Ringo's, are essentially tutorial quests).

Can yall get wit dis!

1Kurgan1 · Dec 26, 2010

Alright, question here, I don't have FO3 anymore. And I'm trying to use the NMC textures, but that little mod that I "need" (or so it seems) just talks about being there to move the files from FO3, which I don't have. So what the heck do I do if I don't have FO3 and I just have Vegas?

NMC is short for what?

1Kurgan1 · Dec 26, 2010

Not sure, think the guy who makes it goes by NeilMc. The texture pack itself is for Fallout 3 and it's just called NMC Texture Pack. I think I got it figured out, need to extract them to a certain place, then point a script to their location and it will add what is needed by F:NV.

InnocentCriminal · Dec 26, 2010

My GF bought me New Vegas for Crimbo!

As soon as I finish Fallout 3: GOTY (when I get a nice new 6970) I'll get stuck in. Hopefully all the 'little' bugs have been ironed out.

1Kurgan1 · Dec 28, 2010

Anyone got a guide for making fomods. I'd rather create them so I can turn them on and off rather than extracting to the data folder. I have seen guides before, but I can't seem to find any now, except for older ones for Oblivion, but it seems FoMM has had some updates since then.

Wrigleyvillain · Dec 28, 2010

Digging this game; nice to be back in the Fallout universe. Looks good too.

It depends on your build and how you usually confront them.
