About this mod

As someone who suffers with depression, anxiety, insomnia and tinnitus, I know how crippling mental health issues can be. Mental health awareness is still an ongoing fight for sufferers and their friends and families. Due to my issues and in particular my tinnitus, I have studied sound therapy for some years now as a way to alleviate the suffering. I have very recently decided to create a Youtube Channel called 'Meditation Road - Sound Therapy', with the intention of passing on some of the knowledge I have gained in the hope that it might help others.

So all I ask is if you would like to support me and pass on a 'thanks', then I would really appreciate you subscribing to my Youtube Channel. Thank you.


The inspiration behind this mod is to bring a more post-apocalyptic, dark and gloomy feel to Fallout, and to make our wasteland experience even more immersive.
Project Reality MkIv5HDR is initially a weather, lighting, visual effects and immersion features mod which was built using real world data. Project Reality gives the game a more post-apocalyptic Fallout feel achieved through lighting and cloud visuals. Go to the video's section of this mod page to watch Gopher's excellent and informative review.

F3NV Project Reality MkIv5HDR requires the FalloutNV master file to work..
Compatible with all visual mods. Previous visual mod settings may have to be adapted as F3NV re-designs the games base colours.
It is not compatible with other weather mods.
if you are using d3d9 perf fix, then REMOVE IT! It will cause lag with this mod.
