Dynamically scatters small pebbles across the landscape in the the same way the engine renders grass. Adds a lot of landscape detail without a performance hit. Similar to what happens in Skyrim or Fallout 4.

DC Ruins example from in-game
Original Authors: Kidflash and Temmis

Original Author: GloomyJZ
Link to original mod
Description
Adds a 2min 30secs holotape recording regarding the U.S. Senate and the choice for America to exit the United Nations.
The holotape is in the National Archives in the same cell that Sydney is first found in. Look for a desk in the library that is behind the main rotunda.
The voices are done with ElevenLabs, so it sounds as if it's from the original game.
INSTALLATION ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Incredible mod that really deserves it's own page.

The below mods are of very high quality and you can download and install them as you would any other FO3 mod.
1. Fetal Position Skeleton
No ESP or ESM required
From the mod page:
"Humans no longer splay all their limbs out while going ragdoll. Now, they clutch their face or chest and might roll up into a ball."
This mod is very good and gives a more natural position to dead npcs
Link
2. Better Stand Up Animation
No ESP or ESM required
From the mod page:
"This is a beautified edit of "mt_knockdownfacedown" and "mt_knockdownfaceup" so you don't have to cringe every time you or an NPC wants to get up."
Big improvement when npcs are getting up off the ground
Link
3. Dramatic Inertia
No ESP or ESM required
Below is one of multiple movement animations added by this mod
This mod might be best for users that play in 3rd person camera. If you use 1st person, you best delete the forward walk with weapon equipped animation. I'll have to find it and post it's name at some point. All the others work very well.
Look at the gifs or video on the mod page to get the idea. Whether it's to your taste or not, It's an impressive mod.
