a new start what mods?

hey, I want to clear the dust on my FO3 game and give it a new try. So I was interested in what kind of mods you guys would recommend me so that I can have a REALLY different playing experience then the usual play throughs

 

I was thinking about getting the CHildren of the Wasteland, seems to make the game REALLY different, but I am not sure yet

Possible mods

Martys mutant mod

FWE

19th and 20th Century Weapons v5_12 (Seems to be good, why is it under examination of a moderator????)

 

 

mods I am getting for sure:

GNR -- More Where That Came From

Fellout

Fallout 3 Re-Animated

EVE - Energy Visuals Enhanced

 

 

So basically these are my questions:

 

1) are the mods I am asking aout a good enhancement for the game, or does the opinion differ?

 

2) what is the best mod for clothing changes? hair/face changes?

 

3) and mods you would recommend that I have forgotten?

 

 

thx for any tips

What? No responses for less then a day and you already bump it?

 

Anyway, here it goes:

 

1) Yes, I suppose those are indeed good mods. I have used or am still using most of them great pleasure. So, yes those are some good enhancements for FO3.

 

2) Clothing changes? I suppose you could give "Lings Finer Things" a try. (You'll have to look it up yourself though, since it's not on the nexus anymore)

For hair "changes" you could give this a try: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1146

 

3) Strongly depends on your own tastes.

Personally would recommend "Mothership Zeta Crew": http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8747 and possibly this to go with it: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=15369

Perhaps a mod that changes Sydney into a (voiced) follower?: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=9320 and a mod that changes her default appearance: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=11362

Perhaps a mod that gives Bittercup a more appropriate appearance?: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=13643

You might also want to give changing the default hud a try by trying "DarNified UI". (you'll have to look that one up yourself too.)

 

Well, I suppose these will keep you busy enough for a while. Have fun.

cool, really nice thanks! and hey, when I was here on reguarly, it used to be much more busy :)

 

jjust one last question: is there a mod which changes the weapon system radically? heard about the 19th 20th century weapon mod, but when I looked it up, it was under examination of an admin. can I get that mod somewhere else, or is there another mod you could recommend?

Yeah, I know. Everybody's run off to New Vegas.

 

Didn't know that mod was under review. Don't know why either. Can't really recommend any other mod, since I only use that one too.

 

As for the location of the 19th & 20th century weapons mod: http://www.fileplanet.com/210864/210000/fileinfo/Fallout-3---19th-and-20th-Century-Weapons-Mod-v5 (hopefully the link's allowed)

No, it shouldn't. Are you sure you put in the files labeled as .ESP and .ESM in the data folder as well?

 

Just downloaded the file from that location myself and the esp's and esm's are within the downloaded folder, so it should be just a matter of copy & paste...

Yes they do. They also let those "groups" pick up and use the non-vanilla ammo.

 

by the way, make sure that the calibr esm is above the 20thcentury weapons. esm in Fomm.

All the .esp's should come under it.

Thanks though for pointing it out. now will just get one or two mods like Children of the wasteland and marts mutant mod and I can finally play FO3 again!!! (in my mind, best game next to oblivion I have ever played (RPG WISE! best game EVER is mass effect 2!) hope that skyrim and fallout 4 will be as amazing as these games
