Tired of CTD while wearing X-02, but you can't live without dragbody's armors? NVAC is discouraged in your preferred mod guide/list?
Say no more.
DESCRIPTION - This mod does 3 things:
- Overwrites .esm file provided with the original mod of dragbody (still needed: download it from GUN's), replacing its meshes with TTW-non-faulty ones.
- Removes some broken records (I don't know why they were there).
- Tweaks some settings from original Titan's 2022 patch (still needed, as shown in Requirements) in order to work correctly with the Titan's/TTW model.
Other Tesla variants are still present (as far as i know there aren't any issues with them).
COMPATIBILITY - ONLY TTW is supported. Two main versions are provided:
one for the full set replacement, the other if you want to preserve the helmet for coherence or if you like more that one.
I don't know if the helmet is broken just like the armor: experiment and feel free to report any issues. If you are choosing ALT version, be sure to check Recommendations section.I'm <unofficially> supporting Wasteland Survival Guide | Wasteland Survival Guide , but I still don't know if this works with STARS or not. Try at your risk!
INSTALLATION - Just Install it with your preferred mod manager (who said MO2?).
RECOMMENDATIONSSelect Titans of Steel in Graphics section, and don't install any patch. Then, in TotNW folder, delete following files, you'll thank me later:
Titans of The New West\meshes\armor\powerarmor\bosdecal.nif
Titans of The New West\meshes\armor\powerarmor\decalsarmy.nif
Titans of The New West\meshes\armor\powerarmor\lyonsdecal.nif
Titans of The New West\meshes\armor\powerarmor\outcastdecal.nif
Titans of The New West\meshes\armor\t-51bpowarmvar\t-51bvardecal.nif
Titans of The New West\meshes\armor\t-51bpowarmvar\t-51bvardecal_lyons.nif
Titans of The New West\meshes\armor\t-51bpowarmvar\t51bvardecal_outcast.nif
Spoiler: this prevents floating logos and faction decals on armor shoulders. In short: delete/hide all "
*decals*.nif" files
Select (obviously) TTW edition. Choose your package: I'd pick Standard for additional PAs. Disable
"Fallout4PowerArmorsTTW - No PipBoy in Power Armor.esp" and install these mods:
Simple Power Armor HUD at Fallout New Vegas - mods and community (nexusmods.com)
Alternate Holographic Panel - No PipBoy in Power Armor at Fallout New Vegas - mods and community (nexusmods.com)
You should already have them if you have followed Wasteland Survival Guide.
- Use TOTNW with PAVE (attention needed if you are choosing ALT version):
Seriously. Although not needed, you are replacing a high detailed model, you want this.
Pick this
PATCH too. If you are using
PAVE Compatibility Plugins AND my ALT helmet you'll need to install the Optional file on top of that or instead.
And don't forget to disable PAVE_NV.esp, enable only TTW version .esp provided here.NB: you will have to remove the same files removed before in TOTNW, but in the new paths:

Dragbody's T45d armor meshes/textures won't match helmet ones. So be sure to set:
iBoST45Helmet=4
in that mod, or if you prefer no PER+1 bonus:
iBoST45Helmet=3
at the end, please install the only Misc file provided: it fixes BoS Salvaged armour with dragbody's model. Updates and Fixes incoming!EXTRAS- Do you want to "turn off" helmet eyes from TOTNW model to look like one of the screenshot? Just install optional file provided.
CONSIDERATIONS - While I love FO4 PAs, I have to admit that I really like the Titan Tesla version too; but it is the only one indeed. I don't really appreciate BoS from TotNW, I hope that you won't find too odd have two different aesthetics of the same armor. Honestly it doesn't bother me at all, it gives some variance. But if you disagree, I can understand why.
FLAWSAt the moment, X-02 model replaced suffer from some height variance from original Titans mod. If anyone knows how to fix this, just tell me.
MAYBE not a real issue, needs further investigations. Spawning enclave tesla soldiers may show this issue but not in normal gameplay due to original authors manual tweaks.
I'm aware that in 1hp arms only hands are displayed, no arms. I'll update ASAP to fix the inconvenient.Errata corrige, it was a fault installation of Titans on my end.
TO DO - In future, I hope.
- Fix X-02 Tesla problematic behaviour. I wonder why nobody has done it before, maybe using lightning effect from base game.
