What are some absolutely necessary mods for Fallout: New Vegas?

I've played the game several times before, but it was on an outdated PC, so now that I have a new one, I just want to mod it to look and play better.

I'm interested in all sorts of mods, ranging from overhauls to just plain old ENBs.
>>
>>339352207
Why would you mod this shitty old-ass game, just play Fallout 4. New Vegas shouldn't even be considered a "Fallout" game.
>>
>>339352521

Cheers, big ears, for the bump.

Thank you.

One last question: is there something that lets me see my character's body from first person?
>>
>>339353359
Enhanced Camera
>>
jsawyer.esp is the only required mod because it's the director's cut
>>
>>339353458
>no Outside Bets/Wasteland Uncut to restore content they patched out because of consoles
>no YUP to fix the bugs they weren't allowed to fix themselves

C'mon now, son. JSawyer is nice but it's not a cure all.
>>
Is there any mod that allows me silence energy weapons for stealth?

I'm lame like that.
>>
What's the best female body replacer with good vanilla armor conversions that aren't skimpy/slutty?
>>
>>339353706
There isn't from what I can see. Also I'm fairly sure the light output of an energy weapon would ruin any silencer
>>
>>339353148

You forgot WRP and Weapons of the New Millenia.
>>
>nobody has mentioned Cirosan's classic overhaul

Alongside JSawyer.esp it's the proper way to play

Project Nevada a shit, A SHIT
>>
>>339352521
Lore consistency ain't free friend. It has to be littered with the blood of old fags to protect our origins. Fallout "Borderlands" 4 ain't a Fallout fan, probably only hardcore Bethesda fan bois.

I meant WRP when I typed WMR

I don't believe in adding new weapons just for the sake of having new weapons

Type 6 armor conversions.

I wanna see what that looks like with textures on.

Edit it yourself in the GECK
>>
what's the correct order to do the DLC again? and is lvl 32 too high for it to be fun?
>>
>>339358056
release order is the story order but the references to each other are minimal

old world blues has some noticeable hp bloat at higher levels
>>
>>339357462

Except when you look at the disparity in texture quality between that and the counter/surface it's on.
>>
The Quick loot mod seems the most interesting to me, something that removes a lot of the tedious parts of the game consisting of just looking at UI screens.
>>
>>339358056
HH --> DM ---> OWB ---> LR
>>
>>339358394
The moment you use any texture pack, you're going to get that in one way or another

Not every texture has a HD version floating around there, so either don't replace them or suck it up
>>

The IMAGINATOR is necessary in my opinion. New Vegas looks kind of bleak without it, and is a good substitute for an ENB in that it doesn't hinder your performance by much and you can set it up however you want.

Great summary, thanks.

Any quest/bonus areas/dungeons/exploration mods you'd recommend?
>>
>>339358828
New Vegas Bounties are the go-to recommendation
>>
>>339358913
Indeed, and i've alreay played that along with other mods from someguys series, therefore i would apreciate some lesser known ones. I wanted to try World of Pain but i've heard it shits on the immersion.
>>
>>339359031
>but i've heard it shits on the immersion.
Not too painfully. It adds some locations are most more or less have a reason to be where they are, but if a dissonant amount of enemies tucked in a too large bunker/location doesn't work for you, ignore it.
>>
>>339359031
D.E.I.M.O.S
Tales from the Burning Sands
Beyond Boulder Dome

Never tried any of them, just listing names
>>
>>339359031
AWOP is worth a playthrough, though I'd recommend doing it on a seperate save, or a save you don't particularly care about, because it breaks balance by throwing high-level gear at you early on, and is known to cause save bloat.
>>
>>339352207
Yukichigai patch, FO3 weapons restoration, better New Vegas, NVInteriors, New Vegas Restoration/Freeside restoration, New Vegas Uncut, and maybe Someguy2000 mods and Tales from burning sands for quests.
>>
>>339358693

Any other ENBs you would recommend?
>>
>>339359623
>FO3 weapons restoration
Why on earth would you want the garbage FO3 weapons back?
>>
>>339359931
It's not even an ENB. It's a mod. There's also a version for Skyrim and I think Fallout 3 has one too. Not entirely sure.
>>
>>339359970
Because they fit into lore, and better then, say marksman carabine or 12.7mm SMG, and bring more diversity to the selection. I liked the chinese pistol. Also, i'd say that the WMX and weapon mod menu are mandatory.
>>
>>339352207

Mods that make the game crash less

Mods that open up the Strip (and optionally Freeside) and remove their loading zones

Anything else is just asking for trouble in a game as unstable as New Vegas, and applying graphics mods to such an ugly game is like trying to polish a turd

The FO3 shotgun is really satisfying to use but the design makes no fucking sense

Wew lad

Don't do this.

it is a total unstable mod you can not deinstall
it is literally reking your game

i wouldn't tell someone who is new to modding NV to install it

You can uninstall it just fine, you just have to start a new save file. Anyone who isn't an idiot will test it first before committing to it.

Or be a big boy and use Mod Organizer so they can make a mod profile without it

Like >>339362026 said, it's better to avoid this mod at any cost.
I've tried this mod and I regret my decision so much:
>loading in the Freeside takes much longer
>frame rate drops in a half
>mormon fort is fucked up

So a 45-70 Gov't will punch a hole through one of those Legion fuckers the size of a brahmin?
