Nexus Mods is the best modding site in our opinion, it has the largest variety and one of the best communities. Like LOOT it has a plugins sorter, but not as good as LOOT we find.

Nexus Mod Manager, or NMM for short, is the ultimate and most simple modding tool, saving you hours by activating, and correctly installing files to the directory the author of the mod wants it installed to to work properly.

Nexus Mod Manager [Please Note: NMM is no longer supported by Nexus, and has been replaced by Vortex.

LOOT comes with an install wizard to save you time and the hassle. It also provides thousands of plugin-specific messages, such as usage notes and bug warnings, to help keep your game healthy. (next part is directly taken from LOOT website) While sorting, LOOT checks for load order errors (such as incompatibilities and missing requirements) and notifies you of any issues that it detects. LOOT is the Load Order Optimization Tool which tests the integrity of game plugins and files and alerts you of the issue. LOOT is essential for any properly modded New Vegas. So to clarify, install NVSE and then install FNV4GB on top of it, then launch Fallout: New Vegas through NVSE. (You have to have NVSE installed obviously.) Install in the same manner as you installed NVSE and run the now installed patcher to patch your game, and then run the game via NVSE_loader. This is required if you want to run HD texture mods, an ENB or any mod that requires heavier RAM usage. Those 4 gigabytes will serve like a reserve set of RAM. In other words, this means Fallout: New Vegas is allowed to allocate an extra 4GB of space on your hard drive. Then, drag and drop all the files contained into the Main Directory where FalloutNV.exe is located, not into the Data folder.

To do this, just open the zip file that NVSE comes in and open the nvse_5_0_beta 3 folder inside. NVSE, unlike Skyrim's version, NVSE does not have an install wizard so you'll have to install it manually. New Vegas Script Extender, or NVSE make sure to install the beta version, 5.1b4 is very important and it is also required by an insane amount of the greatest mods that change the game in a positve way. NVSE, FNV4GB, LOOT, FOMM, NMM, FNVEdit, MCM, and VortexĪll credit goes to developers of the many tools! If however, you need to lauch the game through the defult launcher, set Fallout.ini and FalloutPrefs.ini to read only You'll want to launch the game via NVSE_loader.exe in your New Vegas folder. This will reset your Fallout.ini and FalloutPrefs.ini to their default state, causing a lot of work for you. WARNING: Do NOT EVER, under any circumstances run Fallout: New Vegas through the vanilla launcher on the steam client.

Mods recommended by the ourselves will be Bolded Your preferences will vary from ours, so therefore we will list some of the most endorsed, downloaded and quality mods for each category. If you take the time to be careful and install everything correctly it will seriously pay off. Fatal crashes may occur, missing textures, missing meshes, errors etc. A lack of patience and not carefully installing every mod can be costly. Then all your floors, or mods, are held up by duct tape and gorilla glue much like Skyrim modding except a thousand times more finicky due to the age of the engine. A modded Fallout: New Vegas is like a tower starting with the base, obviously.
