Help me mod my next game

[firsTraveler]

I’m planning a new play thru of Fallout 3 and would like some advice on modding it. I know I've listed a lot of

stuff, there's so many great mods!

 

I’m going to be using the usual tools (GECK, FO3Edit, BOSS, NMM) and of course FOSE. Can anyone suggest others

that might be useful?

 

I know there are a couple popular mods that I won’t be using because I’ve found them to be resource hogs or not to

my liking In previous builds (EVE, ENB, and NMC Textures come to mind).

 

So on with the list!

 

 

Game interface/control improvements:

Adjustable HUD - aHUD

5X Faster Waiting

Advanced Recon Trap Detection

CASM - does this really work, or should I just keep using the console to make safe clean saves?

Directors Chair - Total Visual Control

DYNAVISION - Dynamic Depth of Field

Fake Fullscreen Mode Windowed - Alt Tab Fix - I'm running Win7 64bit on a medium powered machine

Fired Followers go to Tenpenny or Megaton

PersonalTerminal

Hacking terminals is easier

Unified HUD Project

Fallout Stutter Remove

Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch

The Pitt - Free Labor Fix do I need this if UFP is installed?

Dynamic Weather

FXAA post process injector

 

 

I've heard the vanilla radios enough to karaoke the whole thing so I'm going to add at least these. What's the

best GNR fix/improver mod?

Existence 2_0 - Robot Radio - loved this in New Vegas

On The Road Radio

X-1 Tales of Wonder - Radio Station

 

Perks, I love perks, lots of perks. What's the best level uncapper?

Ultimate Perk Pack

GOAT_Perks

Automatic Lawbringer or Contract Killer

 

 

Things that make the world more enjoyable:

Fallout 3 Redesigned - Formerly Project Beauty HD

DIMONIZED TYPE3 female body

Fallout 3 Re-Animate

Followers Relax - AKA Sandbox Mode

FunOut for Fallout 3

Growlfs Hot FO3 Clothes and Armor 101

Rich Vendors v10 - I hate the way the CW economy works!

Dogmeat Call - he always disappears on me

Vehicles of the Capital Wasteland

 

 

 

The CW is kind of dull but there are new and improved places. What's your favorite Megaton and Tenpenny suite

overhauls? Also what are the best mods for Rivet City, Caterberry Commons, and Springville?

Alpha - The New World

Alton IL - Huge World and Quest Mod

Anchor Town

Big Town Overhaul

Fort Independence Redesigned

GreenWorld OR Tranquil Wasteland - I assume there totally incompatible

CALIBR Ammo Schematics - CRAFT

CRAFT - Community Resource to Allow Fanmade Tinkering

Junk Be Gone - will this mess up CRAFT or FWE?

I find the vanilla companions mostly worthless at best and usly down right annoying, the game doesn't really seem

to have been designed for teams in the first place. I usually just keep one or two better looking ones in the

player house as walking mannequins.:

CLOVER PERFECTED - Type 3

Follower Amata

Kelsey Companion

Kim The Blonde Follower

Kirina Shilo Type3 Companion WIP Dual Pack

Mothership Zeta Crew

Saving Nova

 

 

New quests, more things to do is more fun:

101 The Collector

Pitt Aftermath - Glorious Steel

Prisoners of the Underworld ENGLISH

AAT Phone Company

TERMINATOR Cybernetic Dawn

The Crimson Caravan v1_3 by Azar

The Institute - a fully voiced quest mod

The Mantis Imperative

Vault 101 Revisited

Wasteland Militia

 

 

Just some random stuff:

Ks Dynamic Sneak - sneak in vannila is way overpowered, and with the modded guns it's more so

Free Pumpkin

Tempenny Gate Destroyable

Vault-Tec Experimental Dimensional Safe

Vault-tec Storage room

 

 

I'd like to try these total remakes but I'm not sure. Anyone tried them?

Obscurum - Unnatural Selection

HEER a Total Conversion by Drew Piwek

Only the Dead Forgive by Askfor

 

 

 

I didn't post live links because I think it would be too big for the forum rules. All of these mods are on

the Fallout 3 NEXUS.

 

Thank's for taking a look, and I look forward to your advice.

Nice list :thumbsup:

 

I'd add the Greenerworld mod and add the hair pack that's ported from Oblivion

 

OK, blowing my own trumpet her, but if you'd like a very nice child companion, with many, many lines of dialogue (not acted though), try here:

 

http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/18281

 

Next version will also include a fully voiced send companion and 6 quests.

 

have fun playing the third installment of (IMHO) the series that should be part of school curriculum.

 

Godspeed, and remeber, ghouls are people too!
