Fallout New Vegas is Obsidian’s 2010 interpretation of the vast nuclear wasteland of the Fallout universe. This time set in Las Vegas, in the Mojave desert, it’s a bleak and gripping game with plenty of memorable characters, locations, enemies, and weapons. For some, New Vegas is their favorite Fallout game and even their favorite RPG. Check out some of these Fallout New Vegas Nexus mods that have helped cement it as a role-playing great.
Mar 20, 2014 New Vegas Bounties I v1.5 Beta + Freeside Open compatiblity Patch A compatibility patch to make the v1.5 Beta of New Vegas Bounties I work with Freeside Open Requires New Vegas Uncut - Freeside Open 0.7 by MoBurma. Lathe Biosas is a side quest in New Vegas Bounties II. The NCR is offering a bounty of 2,000 caps for the capture of Arthur Ribben. He is wanted for genocide, conspiracy, and other crimes. His current whereabouts are unknown. He is to be considered armed and dangerous, and should only be pursued by licensed professionals. To collect the bounty, submit Arthur Ribben or proof of his death to. This traveling merchant is actually an independent bounty hunter, formerly a caravan guard, working undercover. Following a prison riot at the local NCR Correctional Facility, the bounty hunter went into Powder Ganger territory near Primm and Goodsprings, hoping to bag a few Powder Gangers and earn a few caps from the local NCR presence (even though they are not actually offering bounties for Powder Gangers.).
Page 164 of 389 - New Vegas Bounties I - posted in File topics: Yeah Jasper isn't where he's supposed to be, could someone give me his ID code so I can teleport him to meEDIT: never mind, remembered i use a mod that changes Freeside, all i needed to do was use movetoqt, talk to jasper in a different dimension fight some bad guys and use the freemont street marker to reset the stage and not. Any way to finish New Vegas Bounties using console commands? I'm in the middle of NVB, but I only now realized that it's not compatible with Open Freeside. Someone made a patch, but it's only functional if you've never been to Freeside before.

TitanFallout
Do you know what’s an awesome game? Titanfall. Do you know what’s cool? Titans. So why not add a little Titanfall to your Fallout New Vegas? This mod lets you summon Titans that will drop from the sky. You can pilot them and wreak havoc on your enemies. It even allows you different ways to get your Titan. When the game loads with this mod installed, you are given three options. You can be given the Titan right away (if you are at a max level already or just want it asap), you can get it at level 30 (default setting) or you can go retrieve the Titan yourself at a marked location. Once your Titan is summoned, you can immediately start using it and destroying any enemies around you. Don’t worry if your Titan breaks, you can always get another after a production period (35 minutes). It’s a ton of fun, trust me.

IMPACT
Fallout New Vegas is an excellent RPG, but it’s somewhat lacking as a shooter. Primarily, it lacks substantial hit effects when you shoot an enemy. This mod seeks to alleviate that problem and make the gunplay more satisfying and visceral. IMPACT is a mod that completely makes your guns feel more dangerous and powerful with completely new visual effects and details. So what does it do? Bullet holes are more substantial and reflect the caliber of the bullet, hitting objects will cause a spark of particle effects, and more. Overhauled custom particle effects that affect most surfaces in the game, including wood, metal, stone/concrete. Fallout New Vegas can feel like a pea-shooter game at times, but not anymore. IMPACT is a nice mod if you’re to make the guns more impactful and more powerful.

Weapons of the New Millennia
Weapons of the New Millenia is a quite self-explanatory mod. This mod provides a large number of new guns to the world of Fallout New Vegas. These include an AK-47, a Colt M1911, an M4A1, and many more. You can even choose how you obtain these guns, whether that be from a cheat sheet or a level list where you must defeat enemies to get your hands on them or simply purchase them.
Along with the guns, it even adds a quest line type of element to your game. So not only can you get these new weapons, but you can test them out in their own special questline. This mod was developed with an emphasis on compatibility and modding capabilities, so the community can continue to expand on this work. This mod has had a lot of work put into it, and it would be a shame if you didn’t give this one a try, it is truly unique!

Five Nights at Vault 5
Inspired by the Five Nights at Freddy’s horror games, this mod drops you in a vault with no equipment and no weapons and sets murderous robots on you. You have nothing but your wits to survive the hunt. The arena will also periodically fill with deadly gas.
This mod is fully equipped with a new voice pack specifically designed for this mod. Like your typical Five Nights at Freddy’s game, it requires you to play that hide and seek style game to close doors on the impending doom. The one main way this mod differs from Five Nights at Freddy’s is that it requires the player to move from room to room to evade enemies and continue forward rather than stay in a single room. Overall, this mod provides hours of unique gameplay that is vastly different from a normal Fallout New Vegas gameplay, but it certainly is fun and unique.

New Vegas Bounties
What is the desert without a little bounty hunting? The series of quests that allow you to take on the role of a bounty hunter. Take contracts, seek out your targets, and take them out without mercy. You will have all different types of enemies as targets, including rangers, fiends, raiders, smugglers, cannibals, and pistoleros. All of these enemies will be a challenge, as they are all set in the same difficulty as regular bosses are, and they become harder and tougher as you progress through the storyline. Featuring over 436 lines of new dialogue, you can truly immerse yourself in brand new experience in Fallout New Vegas with this mod.

MTUI
Fallout New Vegas is a game that was clearly designed for consoles. The text is too big and seems to be designed for players who are sitting across the room from their TVs. It doesn’t make the best use of the real estate of a monitor and isn’t as optimized for PC as it could be. This UI overhaul fixes that, by doing many essential adjustments that PC players need, including smaller font sizes, larger item selection areas, improved conversation menus, etc. These menus and adjustments are made with the desktop player in mind, built for PC screen resolutions. However, if you do not like this mod, do not worry. You can always uninstall the mod and restore the original textures if that is your preference.

Populated Casinos
The casinos in Fallout New Vegas are uncharacteristically dead. The game builds New Vegas up into some kind of paradise full of life and energy, but when you get there the casinos are empty and devoid of life. Pretty disappointing. This mod fixes that problem and brings life back to the casinos. It makes the heart of the Mojave wasteland actually feel like a bustling center.
You will find a lot of NPCs, a lot of them look the same, but in the grand scheme of things the goal is to liven up the casinos, and that is what this mod accomplishes. This mod can be very performance intensive. Since it is spawning in a lot of NPCs, it tends to use a lot of resources. If you have a decent PC, that should not be an issue, and this mod will simply just make your game better.

Roleplayer’s Alternative Start
If you’ve played Fallout New Vegas a few times, the opening can get pretty samey. Sit on Doc Mitchell’s couch and answer the same old questions, go out to Goodsprings and do the same old stuff. It can get old after a couple of times. The Alternative Start mod gives you the chance to get a fresh start in the Mojave desert, placing you in a randomized location and setting you free into the world.
This mod will make Fallout New Vegas into a much better role-playing game.
Other features include: fixing starting quests, over 95 starting locations across the world, faction specific starting points and everything is fully randomized. There are also different forms of history for you, and all these factors will affect what kind of weapons, gear, and skills you may have. What this means for the player is, that no matter what, every game you start will have a different gear and item set, meaning a fresh new experience every time.

Project Mojave
Project Mojave is a massive overhaul fallout new vegas weapon mod split into multiple parts so that you don’t have to incorporate them all if you don’t want to. The core of the mod focuses on tweaking and improving the shooter elements of the game, adding bullet time, a grenade hotkey, variable zooms for scopes, and more.
Another part of the mod lets you surgically upgrade your character, adding improvements to speed, durability, strength, vision, and more.

Improved Throwing
Throwing weapons in New Vegas are undeniably pretty lame. Weak, awkward, underwhelming and just not very viable. This mod improves throwing weapons by letting you pick them up after throwing them, craft spears and knives to throw, turn your weapons into projectiles, and even throw random debris at your enemies if you get desperate enough.
