About this mod
The goal of Mojave Scenery Overhaul is to remake and touch up areas I thought were lackluster and forgettable whilst enhancing the original look and feel

I originally started with New Vegas Landscape Overhaul Re-Remastered as a base but this has been very heavily modified to not touch any major town or areas covered by various other mods. I have tried to balance the visuals and performance by making sure empty areas get the most love. I then added in some changes from Enhanced Landscapes with permission from Farsveinn. Lastly I included some changes from Beyond The Black Mountain - Landscape Overhaul that I thought would fit well.
It is basically mandatory to generate Object LOD using the Viva New Vegas LOD Guide.
The video is outdated, refer to the screenshots instead.
FEATURES:
- Remakes and touches up areas that many other modders have neglected.
- No major towns or areas have been touched for performance and compatibility.
- Made to be as effective and minmal to performance as possible.
- Fully manually navmeshed to account for the changes including many additional cover points.
- Minor loot increase in some empty areas to encourage exploration. (Usually just hidden extra containers).
- Swamp Gas FX has been added to "active" muck pools to enhance their look.
- Only vanilla game assets have been used in the standard version. (Therefore compatible with all texture mods.)
- A Custom Assets Addon made from various modders resources that I think fit well with the vanilla game.
- A version available for TTW.
- A FO3 Assets Addon available for users with FO3 meshes installed into FNV by either copying files or using Meshes and Collision - Totally Enhanced Nifs (MAC-TEN FO3 TTW).

INCOMPATIBILITY:
- New Vegas Landscape Overhaul Re-Remastered - My mod is basically a replacement for this. DO NOT USE THIS!
- Enhanced Landscapes - I have already incorporated many parts of this and so you will get overlapping objects and duplication.
- Beyond the Black Mountain - Landscape Overhaul mod - I have already incorporated many parts of this and so you will get overlapping objects and duplication.
- VICE - Visuals Improved Content Expanded - With my mod and this there will areas with large amounts of overlapping objects, duplication and navmesh issues.
- Desert Landscapes - With my mod and this there will be areas with large amounts of overlapping objects, duplication and navmesh conflicts.
- Mojave Vagabond - With my mod and this there will be areas with large amounts of overlapping objects, duplication and navmesh conflicts.
- More Mojave - Objects will be blocking dungeon entrances and the navmeshes will be messed up.
- Mojave Backdrop Overhaul - I have included very similar changes in my mod. You will get cliffs inside each other for no gain.
- Fallout - The Frontier - This will work fine if you hide their mesh "meshes\architecture\novac\novac_motel.nif"
