NVR won June's File of the Month contest! Thanks to everyone who voted for it :D

Read the interview here.



New Vegas Restoration - NVR was chosen by a team over at FilePlanet (Which is directly related to IGN, Planet Fallout, and GameSpy) to be included into an 8 - mod package. This package will be given out to the Fallout: New Vegas fans for use to improve the Fallout experience. I am truly honored for this, it is absolutely amazing. Now all we need is IGN to feature the mod package on T.V. ;) See the package here: Fallout: New Vegas Plus

We have built a working Craps table. I just tested it out, and it works amazingly well. I won 4000 caps :D Ok read about V11 now.

Nice work, thanks!
- Cecallred

Awesome mod.

- GTA44

Awesome mod, thank you. Looks much better than the vanilla version.

- Kresse

I am a believer! Looks and feels so much better! Thanks for this.

- VaultBoy99

Thank you, I hated all the clutter.

- Raimiette

Nice changes. When I first went there I thought it was pretty stupid how junky it looked. It's supposed to be the jewel of the wasteland and instead it looked like any other trash dump town with a few more lights. Thanks for cleaning it up for us.

- Dasim4

Just as promised, here's the endorse.
Very nice mod, I wish that someday, we might get a mod that renovates most of places to look more pre-war. C'mon dudes, it's 200 years after the nuclear war, NV wasn't even really affected by the war at all, and everything is destroyed?

- choojowyczop

Really nice! Who wants to live like a hobo?

- PinHeadius

Four words: I love your mod. Enough said, exept for: THANK YOU!

- Lepidus

Dude, I love this mod. It makes my game better. Keep up the good work!

- cybernathan

This is indeed a spectacular MOD! It adds a little cleanliness to this Open Waste.. definitely an Oasis for the Mojave Over-dosed.

- JLander

Wow, I only was a few days away and my comment was so far behind: No wonder, such a fast and clear answer; thank you Falloutperson416, one kudo for you and I'm sure, that if your mod is half as good as your posts, than you will get the first place on FOTM. So, now downloading and installing...

- Velerios

I love this mod. Makes the strip so much more beautiful. Thank you for the hard work that you have put into this mod.

- killergrimm



The whole point of this on - going mod is to create a Strip that reminds us that there is still some good in the wasteland. By removing the trash, repairing the buildings, and adding more life to the Strip, our goal can be achieved. The NVR Team is working very hard to create the Strip we all want!



This mod cleans up the Strip by removing trash, repairing roads, buildings, and making the Strip a better place to be.



Almost a year ago, I pre - ordered Fallout: New Vegas in hopes that I would be purchasing the best game for years to come. When I set foot on the Strip that faithful night, I was uterly dissapointed. The roads... well, they had been butchered and ripped apart. The ground was bieng used a personal toilet, and the buildings didn't surprise me when I saw holes in the walls and stains on the ceilings. That is why the NVR Team is working very hard to bring you a Strip that we all expected.

Here is what we have done so far:

- Removed The Strip Open requirement.

- Adds the Grand Millenium casino to the Strip.

- Makes Sierra Madre On The Strip compatible with NVR.

- Adds a new North gate.

- Adds new messages to the loading screens.

- Adds a sturdy interior and exterior wall to the Strip in place of those old and busted scrap walls.

- Changes the Strip enterance in Freeside, so security and style will be present.

- Adds a new enterance to the south wall of the Strip.

- Removes the destroyed catwalk.

- Added a visable Las Vegas Welcome sign to the rear of the Strip.

- Fixes issues around the Strip

- Adds more plants to the dirt areas around The TOPS.

- Removes the trashy gates inside the Strip

- Removes trash, car hulks, repairs buildings and streets.

- Adds fix for the removed interior gates.

- Adds a paved area next to The TOPS.

- Makes the static doors on the left of The TOPS useable.

- Adds an entirely new sewer system under the Strip, accesable via the manhole covers.

- Many more changes around the Strip. See for yourself after you download!



Every area on the Strip has had attention, even the places that you don't see when you're walking by. Infact, if you enter the Strip, you will automaticly see a dfference right beneath your feet. The roads are no longer cracked and destroyed. With Version 10, this mod is so much more than just a "Cleanup" because so many new things are added as well.

Areas and buildings that have had attention:

- All of the roads (No more cracks, broken pavement, or piles of dirt)

- The Lucky 38

- Gomorrah

- The TOPS Casino

- LBV Station

- The Ultra Luxe

- Michael Angelos

- The Embassy

- The Strip as a whole.

All of these areas have been repaired. That includes:

- Broken walls

- Peeling wallpaper

- Broken roads

- Stains

- Loose papers and trash

See the pictures for additonal details.

NVR-SMOTS-Version_10.esp: Requires Dead Money, and Sierra Madre On The Strip

NVR-SMOTS-V2-Version_10.esp: Requires Dead Money, Honest Hearts, and Sierra Madre On The Strip



Install:

1. Download the 7zip file.

2. Place the 7zip file in FOMM/ Open up the 7zip file and place the .esp and .esm files in this folder path:

(C:) > ProgramFiles (86) > Steam > SteamApps > Common > Fallout New Vegas > Data

This folder path may be different for some people, but if you are using Windows 7 your folder path should match this one.

If you are using FOMM (Fallout Mod Manager), your load order should be positioned like this:

[X] FalloutNV.esm
[X] NVR-Strip.esm
[X] NVR-NPCs.esp
[X] NVR_rePopulated_Wasteland_Patch.esp (If you're using)
[X] NVR_ELECTRO-CITY_Patch.esp (If you're using)
[X] NVR_SMOTS-ELECTRO-CITY_Patch.esp (If you're using)
[X] NVR-SMOTS-Version_10.esp (If you're using)
[X] NVR-SMOTS-V2-Version_10.esp (If you're using)
[X] NVR-Version_10.esp

Make sure NVR-Strip.esm is at the bottum of the .esm list, and all of the NVR .esp files are at the bottum of the .esp list. Do NOT use the NVR-Version_10.esp and NVR/SMOTS-Version_10.esp at the same time! Do NOT use the NVR-SMOTS-ELECTRO-CITY_Patch.esp and NVR-ELECTRO-CITY_Patch.esp at the same time!

This load order arangement is used to prevent as many conflicts as possible.

Using New Meshes and Textures:

1. Open the 7zip file

2. Extract the folders "meshes" and "textures" to your Data folder (See folder path above)

3. If you are prompted to merge the folders, do so.

If you are starting a new game, you need to deactivate ALL of the NVR files before entering the Strip for the first time. Then, pass through all of the gates and enter the Lucky 38. This makes sure that ALL of the scripted triggers have run correctly. Once this is done, acitvate all of the NVR files.

Uninstall:

1. Delete the files in FOMM/Remove all NVR files from your data folder.

But, you would NEVER want to uninstall, right?
