Suggested mods for first time player

[Trickai]

So I have been trolling the mods and come up with a few that I want to add

 

Project Nevada

A World of Pain

Goodsprings Fillers

Afterschool Special

Couriers Cache

 

 

Some things I want and am still looking for which one to use are

 

A radar type mod that will show enemies

Something to clean up the Pipboy so it isn't so hard to read

More zone/worldplaces/quests

 

 

 

I was having problems figuring out in what order to install things, particularly with Project Nevada but will figure it out eventually. So...what else would you recommend to make things better...not easier just better. I have seen a couple things to make areas greener...Goodsprings I think. Also ones that sort of makes things neater, picking up trash and stuff. And also ones that change the sky and lighting.

 

And finally, is it possible to have too many mods? Have I already got too many in my list to add...should I cut a few out? Or does it not matter as long as I get the installs right?

You don't have to worry about too many mods until you reach 150+ of them.

 

My suggestions are;

 

Lings NV

Interior Lighting Overhaul

Fook NV

WeaponModsExpanded

CONELRAD 640-1240

The Groovatron

Boss 2.1.1 (for load order)

Radar Mod

Nevada Skies - Weather Effects BETA and URWLified

Official Pipboy Readius - New Vegas Edition

If you use projext Nevada make sure you use unified HUD, it will make your life much simpler.

My must have mods not mentioned:

 

Prone Mode - lets you lay prone for sniping

Imps more complex needs- a more in depth needs system for hardcore.

NV interiors goes great with AWOP, fillin in more buildings.

Fellout makes nights dark

Powered power armor - power armor overhaul

Search for the mod author millenia to find some pretty weapons.

Thanks for even more mods suggestions. Prone mode is aweseom. I had already found interiors and am very happy with it. I tried Fellout, but I have poor eyesight and it made it nearly unplayable for me, hehehehe, too much tv as a kid (don't sit so close you'll go blind). The armor and weapons I will look into as well.

 

Radar mod and nevada skies are brilliant of course and I have both installed. Fook is nice to use and wme is also just awesome.

 

I have looked over each mod suggested and probably about 90 percent I have started to use. A couple I had found on my own but the suggestions just helped confirm them for me. Only a couple were of no interest to me but I thank you for the suggestions anyway because really...I mean how is another person supposed to know what I would like. So thanks for every single suggestion, it has made my experience playing SO much better.

OH! I forgot, if you like couriers stash, check out AG supplementary uniques. It's the same thing basically, a bunch of weapon mash ups to make new uniques, but you can pick some of the textures yourself if you want.
