steinbeck Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Hello everyone. New to 'Vegas' so I would like to ask which are the 'Essential' mods I should have before any other . I already have ModManager so don't need that. I assume Steam updated 'Vegas' when I installed it? So, any tips etc as well please. steinnbeck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirropoo Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) Assuming you have all the DLC's Nexus mod manager (even if you manualy download, still use Nexus mod manager) to handle your ArchiveInvalidate.BOSS for load order. Mikotos beauty pak.Hi-Rez BOG skins, "Cali" pak be compatable with most peoples taste.Player Home, number versions from "plain jane" to "extravagant palaces". Willow companion probably best companion mod out there, there are others that are good too.Project NevadaSomeguy mods (Bounty Hunter, The Inheritance etc)A World of PainArmor mods I myself dont play with a lot of mods, pick what Id like to enhance but dont push your luck with game stability.It may well take you a full day to mod out your game and even then you will look somemore. OHHH, one good piece of advice, even it you are experienced, a reminder ...load the mods just a couple or one at a time, if you have problem with game crashing, mush easier for you to determine which mod is the culprit.

Talwyn224 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I would suggest the following, adding onto what Sirroppo has already said: NVEC Complete Nevada Skies the weather mod Tales of the Burning Sands 2 [sadly episode 1 appears to have vanished?] Beyond Boulder Dome - an excellent adventure/quest mod Badlands- an excellent adventure/quest mod Interior Lighting Overhaul Those are just a few. I would suggest that you just have a look at the all time top mods and perhaps choose from them? After all, these are the ones that have got the most endorsements and downloads and that's because they're dam fine work.Also don't forget to endorse the mods you enjoy after downloading :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just updated to feature the latest episode whenever more content is added, since all the quests added use the same framework. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
