🔧 Utilities & Engine Fixes
I’ve built the list on a stable foundation with all the essential NVSE plugins—JIP LN, JohnnyGuitar, ShowOff, kNVSE, SUP—you name it. I’ve also got NVTF and crash fix mods in there to keep things smooth, along with console tools to make debugging easier when needed.
🐛 Bug Fixes
I’m using YUP, YUPDate, Unofficial Patch Plus, and a ton of mesh and lighting fixes to clean up the base game. Stewie Tweaks handles tons of under-the-hood stuff, and other fixes patch up things like LOD flicker, broken lighting, and weird physics.
🎨 Visuals & LOD
The game’s had a full visual overhaul—high-res textures for terrain, buildings, signs, clutter—you name it. I’ve added parallax, PBR shaders, improved lighting, and massive LOD overhauls to make the world feel more detailed and immersive without killing performance.
💀 Creatures & Characters
All the creatures and NPCs are updated with better models and textures. Character Kit Remake and IVMB modernize faces and bodies while keeping that classic NV look. Robots, animals, creatures, and ghouls all got love too.
🔫 Weapons & Armor
I’ve overhauled nearly every weapon with retextures, new models using WAP, WTH, Physically Based, And Friends Mods, and F4NV stuff. Better weapon animations using Anniversary Anim Pack, FNV Clean Animations, NV Guns & Melee Overhaul, and Hit - B42 Packs. On the armor side, there’s 2K and upscaled versions of just about everything—faction gear, vault suits, even hats.
🛠 Gameplay Tweaks & Features
There’s a ton of gameplay improvements—better AI behavior, survival mechanics, balance tweaks, and features like B42 Quickthrow, bullet time, and immersive perks. Everything’s meant to feel like a natural extension of the base game without straying too far from it.
📜 Quests & Content
I restored a bunch of cut content with Goodies, and added new stuff like Simple Open/Populated Freeside, Simple Mojave Urbanization, DM’s overhauls, SUPER Lively Mods, Lived-In Mods, Mojave Scenery Overhaul and The Living Desert. All with custom made patches to help with consistency and to tie the world together making everything feel more dynamic.
🖥 UI & QoL
The UI’s completely redone with yUI, JAM, VUI+, AidUI, and Consistent Pip-Boy Icons. I also added cleaner fonts, map improvements, sorting icons, and helpful HUD tweaks like Dynamic Prompts and Iconic to keep everything intuitive.
🎞 Animations & Immersion
Animations have been heavily upgraded—better movement, idle variety, recoil, and a bunch of B42 packs that add flavor to everything from combat to simple interactions. It helps keep the game feeling fresh and alive.
