Fixing a Missing Game
The "Game Name" List shows the names of detected games that are currently installed on your Windows system.

Once there, extract the following textures to your "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\fallout new vegas\data" folder (or wherever you have your FNV installed):
Basically copy every file extracted file to "Data", buy skip over the files that are already there. You simply want to fill in the missing files, but not replace any ones from hi-res mods.
