How can I make this game look as nice as possible.

OOOOOPS - Can someone move this to the New Vegas board? Dammit, I keep doing this.

 

Anyway.

 

I can run the game on high settings with little to no problems whatsoever. I can pump the LOD almost as far up as it goes. I can make the distant land quality as good as possible, with AA and Filtering at medium-to-high levels. Putting up with a few hiccups here and there, I could probably do well enough with ultra settings.

 

Yet I can't keep this game from looking like complete ass. Everywhere I go, I see twitching LOD, things randomly popping into view. I zoom in with a scoped weapon and my eyes nearly bleed at the poor distant land quality. Sweeping vistas look horrible - chunky, lifeless, almost two-dimensional, and smudgy. It's a huge, immersion-killing disappointment. Hell, Fallout 3 looked better than this game and it's two years older.

 

I've added mods to try and help this. Depth of View's done the best it can. Fellout takes away the haze to make things lush, but things look even worse at a distance. The Nevada Skies weather mods that limit distance are nice from time to time, but nothing I'd like to stick with forever. I've made my own mods that add fog and haze to the game in increased amounts, but this detracts from the realism.

 

All I want is a visuals setting that fogs up things just enough to be realistic, just enough to cover up the blotchy mess that is New Vegas's distant visuals, yet allows room for things like Fellout and Depth of Field. Does anyone know what I could do, both in and outside of modding, to meet this? I'm normally not a huge graphics buff, but this is just tearing me apart. I just can't immerse myself.
