BIG update v0.93 is here!
Now available on



XXL Nukes is a mod that changes game's "nuclear" farts into proper means of Mass Destruction. Blast radius, damage, animation, lighting and screen effects have been altered to make explosions look and feel more realistic.

Plus it adds a custom Overcharged Mini Nuke to properly obliterate your foes.

Explosions kill through obstacles (walls, fences, random pieces of cover, etc), deal more damage over a wider area while remaining totally usable, set targets on fire, induce radiation poisoning and more.

Once you try this mod, you will never go back to vanilla, it just looks like a joke (maybe that was intentional?). Just make sure you save your game next time you decide to launch a Mini Nuke, and if you feel lucky, why not try running by a burning car.
