What are your favorite mods to expand the game?

[Sirkobalt]

So, I was curious as of what mods are, in your humble opinions, the best to get more hours out of the mojave, introduce new mechanics, new places, tons of items, quests, or simply a mod you really like and think it deserves more atention, I'm eager to read (and try out) your opinions :D.

Im not gonna mention the really big mods like project nevada,weathers etc cause im sure that you've seen those mods already,and if you haven't browse the nexus for a while and you will sure notice them..

First off all i would suggest you to play the game as it is if this is your 1st playthrough cause there are many stuff to do and see in the vanilla game and only add mods that enhances the gameplay/graphics

i would suggest you those:

Armed to teeth

Solid project

Reworked health effects

mojave arsenal

The uncut mods that bring back some cut content

and many more...

 

As for the combat there are many mods that can make it feel more tactical and remove the stupid AI and bullet sponginess of the vannilla npcs..

Enhanced 1st person animations by hitman

Enhanced NPC awarness

Combat evolved

Real recoil

Awesome cripling effects

weapon inertia

Lead bullet ballistics(i personally use the realistic version,the basic version makes bullets too slow for my taste and dificult to snipe at long ranges)

And there is a damage multiplier that i cant remember the name(i use the x2.5 version)

Those mods makes combat much more tactical and you really need to find some cover and think before you engage

Also a note on Enhanced npc awarness...Although it makes outtdour combat much better it also affects the indour combat and this many times results on all NPCs on a large interior area rushing to you when they hear a gunnshot

and from 1-2 enemies you will suddently see 6-7-8 all of a sudden and that makes it kinda dificullt..but the author said that he will patch this by the end of the month...

Also be on the lookout for a total animation overhaul that is WIP by Aurah https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQMs8CD8-XuKfdS2aHOQjMg the mod that im most hyped about for this year...

 

I havent played many quest/new land mods for NV as i started playing last about last month and i have only 150 hours of play time but the ones i really enjoyed are those:

NV bounties 1,2,3

The inheritance

A world of pain

Blood by the dollar

and my best of all,Autumn Leaves..6 hours of pure art if you like mystery solving stories as it contains no map markers and combat

also i didnt played this myself,but AlChest uploaded the some parts of this mod,its Elise..from what i saw it has some nice quests and suprisingly good voice acting

 

To make the vannilla ui much better:

darnified ui and ohud

 

I cant think of any other mod really,im on laptop so i cant see my full modlist to recommend you some others,these are the only ones that i can memorize,sorry if i gave the names wrong

There are many modlists/modding guides out there that are far better and more detailed than what i reccomended you now,but im just passing you the mods that i really enjoy playing

Sorry for any mispells,im dont speak english very well

I hope you try those mods give me your thoughs if you test any of those

Happy modding my man !!!!! :D

Another incredible mod i forgot is Russell..He is in my opinion one of the best companion/quest mods out there..I have been on so many adventures with this guy and he saved my ass more times that i can count of..

basically every mod by someguy2000 is top quality from what i've heard,and seen

I've only played 5 of his mods but i will try them all in time

Yeh, I really don't want to change my first playthrough too drastically, I focus more on fixes, and quality of life mods, just to make the game a tad more "welcoming" if you will, I'll check out the mods you listed after I finish the game for the first time, Thanks :3

Please see the wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article. It includes some "essential" mods to fix known game problems.

well all companions mods with his quest, are always good option to me:
for example:
Lunnete (found her and personals quest, broke the paradigma of companion)
Willow (repetible quest, broke the paradigma of companion)
Vanessa (all his quest, broke the paradigma of companion)

Deliah (choices for his future, few companions has that complex)

Ninner (new style of companion)

Gilbert (improved npc)
Russel (great modder)
Axeman (new style of companion, with humor)
Hope Lies (complex mod)

Melissa (npc companion)

Ulysses (npc companion if you let him live)

Riddick (companion from movies, perfect morph and voices)

Daryl Dixon (companion from TV show, perfect morph)

 

With his personal quest or repeatable quest like gifts or trust reputation, are kind fun, and of course the quest you need to get him as companions

 

CAGE is awesome idea, (i tried to fix some things like Cannibal Johnson still following or 2 ED-E)

T-60 cool quest

Legion Quest expansion, (those missions cut from game)

Someguy series (like i said before, Great experimented modder)
