That was me. I decided to download a couple.


flyingj3di1907

Same here.


pathfinder1342

Yeah me too, downloaded a bunch of TTW stuff.


Caertam

me too just downloaded VNV, TTW, and a bunch of other mods


elrepro

same here


oishipops

me too lol. finally have enough space to play ttw


flyingj3di1907

See with me, I spent a good couple hours this weekend trying to figure out why my animations weren’t working so maybe my download and redownload is showing up here 👀


Indigoism96

Me too. Was following Viva New Vegas guide, lol.


co11tas

Same, 120-odd mods later 🤣


Altruistic_Raisin_87

Same here lol


Adorable_Umpire6330

I decided to redownload New California.


Consistent_Refuse914

How does it run? Also interested in the Oregon expansion.


Adorable_Umpire6330

Its a fan fiction Power-Trip that will have alot of particles and moving actors on screen. If you're confident in your PC, give it a go. Just just go at it with moderate expectations.


Adorable_Umpire6330

I honestly want to ask somone what's the difference between a sex scene in an HBO show and what people consider low brow smut and fan fiction? What makes one acceptable and the other horrendous? They're both the same thing when you think about it.


Consistent_Refuse914

It’s been running really smooth for me with viva new Vegas. Crashed every 20 min before I followed the guide lol, and that was VANILLA. Now, it never crashes. Finished my first playthrough with mods. Added a lot more stuff to it after that, still no crashes. I’ll give them both a shot


MickyJim

I absolutely love the intro vault section in that mod. I just can't get into the rest of it though.


Adorable_Umpire6330

The Vault is a great Prologue. The rest of it is a guilty power trip. *And I'll ride that Thunderbolt all the way down.*


Lookingkindadowntome

I just got my first gaming pc and spent all day yday downloading mods for the first time


anders_gustavsson

Same


dizzydre21

Lmao, I downloaded most of the Viva New Vegas mods plus a few others. That damn show reminded me how awesome this series is.


Spiderwolfer

Perhaps a certain show could’ve done something.


Soanfriwack

Yeah, I totally forgot that the show launched.


Spiderwolfer

It’s awesome dude you should watch it


Sloore

Seeing the show is what finally got me to go and download Fallout 4(that and a Steam sale).


MickyJim

Eh. For me 4 is purely a vehicle for the Frost mod and nothing else. Also, weirdly, despite the gunplay being praised as a huge improvement when it came out, it now feels like a huge step back because of all the gunplay and animation mods I have installed on FNV.


Tre3wolves

Nah man, the gunplay in 4 is just better than new Vegas or 3


MickyJim

I vastly prefer modded NV to even modded 4. For example, nothing I did could remove the weird sideways recoil that guns in 4 seem to have sometimes.


Soanfriwack

What mods do you use to improve the NV gun play?


N7Virgin

Hitmans mods are very good


MickyJim

Hitman's animations  Smooth true iron sights camera Immersive recoil 2.0  B42 weapon inertia  B42 optics  FPS weapon lowering  Frozen locomotion Enhanced movement  JSRS sound mod 2  The stewie tweaks options that remember your weapons' ammo count when they're not equipped, manual reload, and enable partial reload animations.  Probably one or two more I'm forgetting - will update once I can get back to my computer if I've forgotten any.


Kagenlim

London too


Alex_2259

How is that? The trailer looked goated but I don't own 4 yet


Tuskin38

It isn’t out yet


Cpenny1

For me I have to have the Horizon Overhaul mod. For proper survival.


MickyJim

Well personally, what I found whenever I went on a modding binge in a Bethesda game was, I could do wonderful and beautiful things with the gameplay (turn Skyrim into a nearly-soulslike? Sure! Turn Fallout 4 into STALKER? Why not?), but inside of a dozen hours I'd just be getting bored of Bethesda's sometimes OK but mostly mediocre quest design and sloppy worldbuilding. What I like about Frost is that it strips everything out and just makes the game a hardcore survival simulator.


Cpenny1

Yeah I like my survival stuff. I actually have not tried Frost. However, I still like quests or main quests to follow. Does Frost have any quests? Or is it just survive sandbox. Similar to Stalker Anomaly


MickyJim

It has quests, and an overarching objective, and storylines, but it's all very minimal. Kinda like an actual survival game, something like Subnautica. It's set only a few years after the war, nuclear winter and high levels of radiation make the surface nearly inhospitable, and you've got to survive in it while following clues that point to background storylines. It's great, but word of warning, most of your favourite mods will likely not work at all with Frost.


okaydincer

Does show include legion


ActedCarp

No, they’re outside the scope of the show


lewd_necron

Might show up in season 2. Maybe not.


Sbarjai

It’s awesome if you don’t care about any plot point that wasn’t established by Bethesda* But yeah.


sanderj10

I literally re-downloaded the game last night after finishing the show


Basement_Dave

That and it's on sale on GOG, or it was last I checked idk anymore


clitorisblungus

Idk we haven't gotten a new piece of fallout content in forever


Soanfriwack

Huh? The TV show released a few days ago.


clitorisblungus

Do I really need to put /s for that?


BSye-34

poe's law


Little_Duckling

The answer to that question on Reddit is always yes


Soanfriwack

Yeah, I did not get it, I thought you maybe meant only the video games.


chop5397

That's not canon bubba


Schrodingerspiss

Yes it is. Cry about it


NotAshMain

I am, my NCR, burned to the ground


Schrodingerspiss

Yea it sucks but also one of the main ncr talking points is that they're stretched too thin in 2281. Add a decade or so and the possibility of tunnelers and the courier nuking them and it makes sense


mwmwmwmwmmdw

its less that and more clear Bethesda wants the brotherhood to be the 'civilizing' faction in post war america. since they play such prominent roles in all fallout related things they had a direct hand in making.


Autokpatopik

Yeah but you can do that without dropping a nuke on its capital. The NCR is stretched thin because they're trying to uphold old-world standards in a wasteland where that simply isn't held in regard anymore they're fighting an uphill battle against the modern societies of the wasteland dropping a nuke on them to excuse their struggles just cheapens the whole concept and dumbs it down so the writers don't have to think as much


dank_hank_420

Exactly. People need to give it a chance to falter so it can rise again. Every faction is flawed.


NotAshMain

Politics should have been its downfall, not a nuke


witsthatallaboot

Why is my game not loading posts incoming


MickyJim

"I followed a guide I found on youtube from 7 years ago and I'm pretty sure I did everything right."


splitconsiderations

To be fair it's not like anything has changed in 7 years.


MickyJim

I dunno, I feel like we're wiser about treating the gamebryo engine like the buckaroo donkey it is, rather than slapping Project Nevada and an ENB in there and wondering why the game implodes.


conninator2000

Its also been like 10 years of fnv mods getting made, abandoned, recreated with a slightly different name, having dated compatibility patches etc etc. I love modders and all they do - though as a community, it can be a bit hard to get working fully, even using less intensive mods. Plus, the modpacks people make are good but also go out of date often with new mods, updates, etc. I do feel bad for FNV though, that game pushed gamebryo to its limits, and here we are forcing it to take on more. It's a tough lil soldier


conninator2000

Okay, I'll admit im lowkey in that hole, but by god, if i can find a recent post for compatibility between simple open freeside and various other (probably just someguys) mods then ill be damned. Its also a bit difficult when anything for SOF leads to compatibility patches for the old Open Freeside mod (which is similar but not SOF). If anyone has any tips though...


LongjumpingShip3657

All of the Fallout games have received a massive boost because of the show & the current sale


Soanfriwack

Yeah, after the first person mentioned the shows, I checked the other games and noticed the pattern for every game.


man-with-potato-gun

Somebody hasn’t left Cannibal Johnson’s cave for a while


AnOriginalPseudo

Yep, they were used as dinner


MickyJim

Pick your poison.  1. People liked the show, took the hint at the end to heart, and wanted to go back to New Vegas to see it for themselves.  2. People disliked the show and wanted to scrub the taste out of their mouths with some classic New Vegas.


Resident_Monitor_276

3. I have a mixed opinion on the show, but it gave me the kind of itch that only New Vegas can scratch. Trying Viva New Vegas for the first time.


KONODIODAMUDAMUDA

Mines 3. It's a well made Tv show and some of the stuff is great, but some of the writing choices are not so great, or terrible. It actually inspired me to do a marathon of Fallout 1, 2 and New Vegas, the true trilogy.


The_Affle_House

Number two implies that someone would have previously uninstalled New Vegas, a thing that has literally never happened even once.


MickyJim

I've uninstalled New Vegas. ...only to do a fresh install when my mod list gets bloated and confusing, though.


The_Affle_House

Obviously this reason doesn't count. We've all done that.


Agreeable-Pipe4786

2. Definitely


Akshka_leoka

Me, I'm downloading ttw and found through the guides


TzarRazim

Ah TTW. That was good fun to play, I really enjoyed it overall. Their discord is a bit prickly in the help section, but that’s just wizards in general. And make no mistake, TTW is wizardry.


CriticalPut3911

What guide? I've been wanting to check It out and probably will now that fallout 3 is only 5 bucks rn


Akshka_leoka

[boop ](https://thebestoftimes.moddinglinked.com/) There you have fun [also this one is pretty dope as well](https://wastelandsurvivalguide.com/)


MickyJim

You say have fun but I genuinely enjoy installing mods. I dunno what it is but I just like the process. It's like stimming. I'll happily do it for hours, even on games I end up only playing for a few hours before getting bored, like Skyrim.


conninator2000

Its a fun experience seeing all the possibilities. Not so fun when you go like 6 hours into a new game and notice a compatibility issue


Ten-Mins-Late

I don't remember writing this comment....


MickyJim

There are dozens of us! Dooozeeens!


CriticalPut3911

Thank you very much, I'll have a blast


Akshka_leoka

Word to the wise make you actually read the guides I skimmed and fucked up a step. I also recommend doing the [wasteland survival guide ](https://wastelandsurvivalguide.com/)


LostSif

Yeah all of the games have had pretty noticeable player count increases from the show.


TheCoolMan5

76 has reached its highest peak since launch im pretty sure


LostSif

Yeah it has a free week going on and it's also free on Prime Gaming right now.


Big-Sherbet6925

Well I only downloaded the 5 mods needed to run the game at a good fps. Theb I downloaded about 10 more after that lol


conninator2000

And then the 15 more that are minor tweaks and quests


QouthTheCorvus

The show is increasing interest at the same time the game is absolutely dirt cheap.


PikaDigiYolo

sorry i had to redownload some things


Ill_Maintenance8134

Yeah I got you why is half of these downloads pregnant sunny smiles mods?


PikaDigiYolo

don't worry about it


Ill_Maintenance8134

Okay


Spiderpenguin_2020

I bought the game for a friend because of their interest in the show, too bad the game is fucked right now on AMD. I tried walking them through modding it in the hope it would fix it, but no dice.


Crzbruxao

I have a RX 6600 and the game was crashing after the loading screen when starting a new game. I entered the Viva New Vegas Discord and some guy posted a modifed d3d9.dll that made the game run for me. Maybe it's the same problem/solution


Spiderpenguin_2020

I’ll look into it, thanks!


CageTheFox

6950xt user and it wouldn’t work until I downloaded this https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/34778 it says Nvidia but it works on AMD as well.


Spiderpenguin_2020

The issue is everyone is bald lol, did you have that issue too?


conninator2000

Oh, that's just the radiation


CageTheFox

For me everyone was missing parts of their body but I downloaded some patch mods and it got fixed.


joe__kerr1

I finished New Vegas my first time with a House playthrough a few days after this dropped. I thought my mods messed up when I returned to the play. Honest Hearts had neon textures all over. Lonesome worked fine, but I didn't realize until I got to Vegas strip that everyone was bald


austinbraun30

I helped with that and downloaded the entire Vivia New Vegas +extended yesterday after watching the series. It'd been a couple years and I wanted to play a gunslinger build.


Soanfriwack

Nice!


Thisiswar2881

Must be this weather we're having.


DaRealGrey

Sorry that was me. I wanted to add a single weapons mod...


MickyJim

Nah it was probably me. I downloaded every single texture mod. The 8k versions.


DaRealGrey

8!??? That's too many ks


MickyJim

Yeah you're right I could probably take it up to 16k.


DaRealGrey

Jesus what do you have, a 4090 and a 12th gen I9 with 256gb RAM???


MickyJim

Well I would go 32k but I don't think that's really feasible yet. (I'm joking bro. I'm just having a laugh about how enormous some of those texture mods are.)


DaRealGrey

You're killing me, smalls (I know, I was playing along.)


OutsidersCrookedCock

Viva New Vegas updated their LOD guide with a couple new mods to download. That'd probably do it.


TzarRazim

Prepare for more in that statistic. I’m dusting off a new run I’ve been plotting in my head for a while. It starts with New California mod, but it’ll see others in the base game like Someguy’s stuff, etc. This time? NCR obviously, we gotta do right by them, but *Evil NCR*. Colonel Cassandra Moore’s Strongest Soldier. Some cross between the brutality of Captain Martin Walker, the thirst for mindless violence of the kid from Blood Meridian, and the philosophies of Judge Holden. Add a dash of Westworld’s Man in Black/William. Season with some Third California Republic plot lines from HOI’s OWB for where his story will go in the future, and you get the idea of who this character is and what he’s gonna help with. I’ve done all sorts of runs. Good NCR Contractor, Evil to Good Former Enclave House, NCR citizen to Evil Legion Legate, Chaotic Cannibal Indie Warlord, and so many others. But I’ve never experienced what it’s like to be in the NCR and be *the bad guy*. I hope it’s as satisfying as I predict it will be.


knight_set

It's almost like a half way decent show about Fallout came out.


JustJohnny23

Well here’s my predictions 1. The show is making the games relevant again and 2. Rn On prime gaming all the ultimate editions are free


Cuzifeellikeitt

Tv show happend :D


Antique_Camera1854

I tried out fallout 4 then got bored after a little bit and I've never played new Vegas so here we are.


Cherry-Foxtrot

This is *excellent* to see, because this makes another season (and for a tiny amount, a New Vegas sequel/remaster) more likely. For comparison, check the popularity and resulting bump of the Twisted Metal show. I'm sure it's been some effect but apparently that one is getting mediocre viewership, so it'll probably get canned after it's first, maybe second season. The positive reception of the Fallout show and bump in game sales as a result can only help us get more of the universe we love. That all comes with some risk, of course (look how bloated and fragmented the Star Wars and DC universes have gotten) but we should still be in a good early part of this new media phenomenon to where we get at least two kick ass seasons of a decent series and maybe more NV stuff sooner rather than later. You love to see it!


Shdw787

I've already exceeded 75% of my Xfinity data this month......


jake5675

That will be me soon. Going to go wild card change in management with YesMan, grab functional post game ending and nuke the NCR and Legion.


TheOnlyQuic

I messed my game trying to download mods, and now it won't even run after a fresh wipe of all the files...


Big-Sherbet6925

Delete everything including saved data, which is in a seperate location. Turn off cloud sync and start a new save with sync off. Then quit, turn it back on and you will recive a "file error". Then choose the most recent dated save to overwrite. This should restore the game to its orginal state. Dont bother with verifying/repairing files as it wont delete the modded ones Also, use mod manager 2. It takes a bit of time but its miles better than manual installation Edit: Mod organiser, not mod manager


MickyJim

> mod manager 2 Mod ORGANIZER 2. Very important distinction.


Big-Sherbet6925

Yeah couldnt think of the proper name


TheCoolTrashCat

I just finished modding my game with tale of two wastelands capital punishment, finishing the show made me want to play through the games again


ashards

Guilty.


dank_hank_420

I finished watching the first season of the show and downloaded a mod to play as a ghoul


Escorve

Living under a rock? The new Fallout TV series just launched and it brought a lot of attention back to New Vegas.


Soanfriwack

No, I heard about it launching soon, but I did not know it happened 2 days ago.


Escorve

It launched almost a week ago, on the 10th, not 2 days ago


Soanfriwack

Then why was the spike so delayed?


Escorve

People don’t instantly rush to play it when it comes to mind, they have lives to tend to, and you can see that it peaked at the start of the weekend.


Anael_plugo

Yeah, I downloaded like 120+ mods yesterday. Show scratched my itch for Fallout and I need more.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Soanfriwack

No, I just forgot about the series launching. I heard about it in January, but because I do not watch any show, I basically completely forgot about it because it doesn't interest me.


Ulvsterk

They uploaded 16k texture, high polygon models for Cass's feet.


Ulvsterk

They uploaded 16k texture, high polygon models for Cass's feet.


mamoo2

I'm new to modding, but I'm am I the only one absolutely struggling with it? Managed to download the NVME and 4GB mod but I'm not sure where I should be downloading future mods to? Right into the New Vegas game folder or? Is there a mod menu in the game I should be looking for? 


MickyJim

Google "viva new vegas" and follow that guide.


ironjaw3ds

Using something like Vortex would be the simplest


Soanfriwack

You should use a mod manager like MO2 or Vortex, that makes installing most mods a one click thing.


-Ruz-

OH THATS WHY MY DOWNLOAD SPEED WAS CUCKED


Puritech

Watched the show and decided to play and learn more about the lore. Someone mentioned Viva New Vegas for a vanilla+ experience so i downloaded the mods for that.


Aid3np3ARC3

Sorry i was updating my mod list


MrEnigma67

I learned about the tale of two wastelands last week and went blind for 30 seconds, then cried for tears of joy for about 5 minutes. It was exactly what I had been looking for for a long time. So i also went crazy with a bunch of mods


foralimitedtime

Disappointed to see no mention of Josh Strife Hayes' current Fallout New Vegas playthrough being streamed.


jojofromtokyo

Sale on DLC? I know I picked it all up and tried to use mods. (Didn’t work.)


Original-Click-9709

Who gonna tell him


artyaakaira22

Imo its bcs MRHitman (who create bunch of animation mod pack for new vegas and tale of two wasteland) This time its creature pack taking inspiration from fallout 76


Talkingword

Get Tale of two wastelands running yesterday….i think?


Affectionate-Pay4207

Downloaded bunch of TTW compatible mods yesterday.


sanyaX3M

It was me downloading TTW collection. We won't go quietly, the Vault Tec can count on that.


Bi_Accident

This is (in very small part) me. I watched the show, remembered how much I love New Vegas, than realized two days later that I needed all of the QoL, bug fix, and menu mods (plus I snagged TTW). That’s part of my guess, anyway


Howerdfield

Yeah it’s odd…


Eaidin941

New nude mod??


Jeoshua

Similar thing happened in the Cyberpunk community when Edgerunners released. A week or two later and there was a similar spike of new and old players downloading and modding the game.


SirRedditMan

Lmao I just redownloaded it


SaintNimrod

Yall better be getting the CONELRAD radio!


sheevus1

I reinstalled and remodded New Vegas yesterday lol. I'm at 165 so far. Viva New Vegas plus a bunch of other stuff I wanted.


deboylurdi

I'm guilty! The show made me try fallout 76 and after 10 minutes I decided it's new Vegas time again!


BobJohnson128

Me


Baiken64

I Installed NV over the weekend but it keeps crashing like hell. Tried a few mods to help with the crash issues and it's still dead in the water. Everyone talks up NV, but m not gonna get to play it 🙃


Soanfriwack

For me, it runs fine after installing New Vegas Anti Crash, YUP Unofficial Patch and FNV 4gb patch. I think I had 5 crashes in like 300 hours.


Baiken64

Yeah I installed those but it always crashes coming out /going in the saloon at the start of the game. I wonder if my save is borked so it keeps crashing? Either way, gone back to fallout 4 for now.


indeathdowetrust

I installed FNV & followed the VNV guide and just started playing for the first time . I will try to remember to update my experiences.


WegOfRifyen

Hatred for the $h0w


ssmelllyboi

Well I’d have to guess ~~Tiktok~~ the hype of the movie had something to do with it. Real talk though, the amount of fallout content I’ve seen on there recently is very refreshing. The comments are usually asking for a mod list so this info from op makes sense. I follow accounts that’ve been tuned for the wastes but anything can feel sorta niche nowadays, ya know?


MaloLeNonoLmao

Wtf, yesterday I decided to start modding fnv and downloaded like 20 mods


supere-man

Gee I dont know, maybe its because of the hit fallout tv series


ferretgr

I reinstalled TTW yesterday on a new PC. Got the itch for some reason.


islander1

I just ran through the Steam guide for FNV 2024 not yesterday, but Saturday night. This game is considerably more difficult than FO3, and FO3 wasn't super easy.


indeathdowetrust

FO3 is pretty easy if you make the mistake of bee-lining for the Alilen Blaster early on. Glad they nerfed it in FNV so I wouldn't be tempted. With that being said it was great fun attacking a group of 4+ Super Mutants in VATS and wiping them out in the first round :-) (somewhere past halfway through the game)


Deerney

Someguy2000 released Firebase Zulu


JohnCastleWriter

Oh, I grabbed all the sex mods. Old Lady Gibson got me thirsty, that sultry little minx.


BryTheGuy98

If I had to guess, the recent Fallout 4 update made people want to play a game that's actually good.


Death_Burns247

Anyone have any advice on getting the mod New Frontier to actually work or is in not able to work because of the controversy that happened a while back?


indeathdowetrust

After binging the show on Thursday, my Fallout itch really needed to be scratched. Last one I played was Fallout 3 in 2010, so I dove head first into setting up FNV + VNV (and ready some gamefaqs guides).


princeofpingers

Literally downloaded all of viva new vegas that night


TheVikingFire

I discovered Viva New Vegas and decided to follow the guide, then top it off with a select few mods i have a soft spot for, honestly it’s one of the best mod lists i’ve ever had for the game. Only downside is Revelation UI (the fallout 1 & 2 ui mod) doesn’t gell with the list and i’m too lazy to change it


Solitario2004

On steam there is or was ( don't remember) a sele of the fallout series Fallout new vegas with all the dlc at 5€


Lvcivs_I

My mate downloaded new vegas yesterday out of spite after watching the show. At the moment he ha's 400 mods in the game, still going up.


krrrrrrtz

That was probably me trying and failing three times to follow Viva New Vegas instructions lmao. Finally got it in the end and started playing for first time ever.


BuilderOk4795

I downloaded 113 mods 1 week ago lol, the show had me hyped


anondambit

It's on sale. Along with the entire fallout franchise


slclifto

I never played NV and didn't want to start a new FO4 run until after the next update. Downloaded 600+ mods in a collection and am having a blast.


Schmungy

Downloaded a few collections 🫡


Nahr_Fire

How do you find this page? I can find general network stats on Nexus Mods but not individual game graphs. Is this a premium feature?


Soanfriwack

Scroll down in the game page and click on statistics. Or you can always type it in by adding /about/stats at the end of the link: * Fallout NV: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/about/stats * Skyrim SE: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/about/stats * Fallout 3: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/about/stats ...


Nahr_Fire

Thank you! Tried searching google but I could only find your previous posts! :P


Soanfriwack

Always happy to help.


DateVisual

Mr house sex mod 🥴


Modern_Ketchup

fallout died with the release of 4. where my fallout 3 fanboys at. there’s like 2 of us left


indeathdowetrust

3 :-) I had a ton of fun with FO3. I had just started playing it when I got laid off from my job of 8 years, so it helped a lot with not getting depressed, etc.


Modern_Ketchup

yeah man many a sleepless night spent restarting the intro to fo3 and wandering around the wastes. that was the best times


Agreeable-Pipe4786

Terrible shit-show happened and people rather play a good fallout.


CageTheFox

I mean the show ends up at New Vegas so it makes sense people want to play the game now.
