Download Corrupt?
Use this Torrent:
231 Full installer Torrent on Discord.
Torrent Clients I recommend using:
--Deluge: https://deluge-torrent.org/
-- Or, Qubit Torrent: https://www.qbittorrent.org/
There are other torrent clients but these are ad free and spyware free, unlike others like BitTorrent or uTorrent which have become compromised with malware. Make sure the torrent reaches 100%, else it will be corrupt.
About installation:
JUST EXTRACT THE 7Zip and RUN THE EXE!
DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL FNC WITH A MOD MANAGER! USE THE EXE!
220's exe will 4GB Patch New Vegas for you! (And automatically skips this if it's installed.)
220 Installs the mod to the directory with FalloutNV.exe. Just point it wherever you want it.
You need 8GB of RAM or More to Run FNC, and Texture Quality set to High or Ultra.
Mod Organizer 2 Special Install Instructions at this link.
Remember that your easy mode MO2 install goes like this: Run the EXE from your download folder wherever that is, change the ini setting found below, and that's it. If you want it to be complicated, these instructions are manually unpacking the EXE and doing all that stuff, but it's unnecessary. FNC works just like the DLCs. If it's enabled, cool. If not? It won't hurt anything. So no special hoops are necessary. But that's up to you. I can't tell you how to live your life. You do you.
And that's it. You're ready! We have OPTIONAL Recommended Mods. Very few Incompatible Mods.
Use Mod Manager of Your Choice!
If you are running FNC totally vanilla (no other mods), you don't even need a mod manager.
Just run using FalloutNVLauncher.exe and under DATA make sure all your boxes are checked.
I can't seem to get New California to start. Help?
A -- I installed everything correctly and New Vegas crashes on startup!
You sure? Check your load order.
Run like this:
FalloutNV.esm ✓
NewCalifornia.esm ✓
See if it runs now.
If not, you may have something else wrong with your installation of New Vegas. Check our discord Help channel.
WE RECOMMEND YOU INSTALL NEW VEGAS CLEAN! NO MODS.
THEN, RUN NEW VEGAS VANILLA TO MAKE SURE IT WORKS!
THEN, INSTALL NEW CALIFORNIA.exe, AND MAKE SURE IT WORKS!
THEN, Install your favourite mods on top of it.
Remember, New California is HUGE! It's basically a new game!
Re-install New Vegas, or install a new copy somewhere, or make an MO2 profile. Then, experiment with mods.
B -- I installed everything correctly and clicked New Game and nothing happens!
Did you install New Vegas clean, no mod, and run the exe as administrator?
Are you sure it installed to the right folder?
Are you sure it installed to the right MO2 mod profile? (See the MO2 instructions above. All you need to do is run the EXE -- that's it. And make sure the below text matches.)
Go to "C:\Users\"YourUserNameHere"\Documents\My Games\FalloutNV"
Search for Fallout.ini and Fallout_Custom.ini
If it says "SCharGenQuest=00102037" replace it with this:
SCharGenQuest=00AD31FF
;SCharGenQuest=00102037 \\this ; is just a "comment" and it is there when you want to uninstall FNC later.
If you use MO2:
Do the same in your ini configurations.
Our EXE attempts to do this, but validating install in steam, TTW, and other mods may prevent it, including some antivirus programmes.
C -- I installed everything correctly and clicked New Game, saw the video, Tackle or Dodge, and Crashed entering the Atrium! (or Black Screen)
Did you set your Texture Quality to High or Ultra? We haven't found a way to convince New Vegas to use Medium or Low yet. This causes a crash.
D -- Texture Size is set to High and I just reinstalled everything, and it still won't start!
If you don't have more than 8GB of RAM in your system, you need a PC with more memory.
Sorry, there's no way around that. Some systems work better than others.
We find that installing New Vegas on a Solid State Hard Drives does wonders for performance.
So does disabling background applications like Browsers and other heavy processes.
E -- It still won't run!
Make sure that if you don't have the DLC, you aren't using the DLC Control Plugins. If you are it will cause a crash.
F -- I just can't install it! I get an error!
People getting the missing msvcr100.dll and/or NSIS Bin Error are all missing the Microsoft C++ Visual Runtime Library:

Fix is in the video. It's a common Windows issue.
If you used any of these console commands, please reload a save from before you used any of them and continue from there, before reporting a bug.
If you do have a bug, please describe it and upload your save here at our Discord server https://discord.gg/Cr39CP8 in the public-bug-reports channel. (just drag the file into the chat window).
A clean install of Fallout New Vegas is recommended.
For stability and performance reasons, I would suggest you follow this guide (sections 'intro' thru 'base finish'):
Viva New Vegas modding guide for Fallout New Vegas
Using the FNC Installer with MO2
These stability changes seem to work for most people:
Make these changes to your fallout.ini in Documents, My Games, FalloutNV and then set it to read-only.

What should i do? Remove HUD Editor to get rid of the conflict? Or hide or delete NewCalifornia - Menu.bsa instead as some comments have suggested? But won't that cause complications down the road?

Biggest issue I have right now is the doctor, who is completely useless when treating addictions, and who cannot sell med supplies. I ended up using other mods to fix this issue. There's also the shi bank issue, of not giving the quest "Shi lost my money", as well as taking caps away for no reason, also used another mod to fix this.
Apart from that, if New California wants to achieve some semblance of completion, then I'd suggest focusing on the following first:
1. More developed characters.
The prologue stuff seemed to nail this fairly well, it's only after you venture out into the wastes where most characters seem to be nothing more than glorified silent NPC's.
Kurtz and Kira seem fine, more or less. The rest need wayyy more dialogue about their opinions on factions, circumstances, the player etc. Some companion centered quests should also be considered too.
Some NPC stats are lacking and even inconsistent with the mod's own lore. For instance: When I asked Jenn Hail to pick a lock with the JIP companion command, her lockpicking chances were "Very Poor" despite the fact that she was an expert lock picker. Ended up using console commands to fix this
2. More random encounters in the wasteland.
I would use DFB random encounters as a reference.
That would be the bare minimum to do in my opinion. Hope someone sees this.
