The Best Way To Play Fallout New Vegas In 2024

I can't believe they haven't found a stable way to repackage these mods into one installer. Even with the install guide this is LAUGHABLY complicated for what is basically stability patching a 14-year-old game.

i did everything correct but im stuck on the loading screen

after battling to get this game running on my newer hardware, I installed this huge mod pack and the game is phenomenal now. Definitely the way to play it in 2024. Thank you!

really sad it does not work with the game pass version

You need an ass computer like i do to run this game without any bugs or crashes

I’m stuck trying to figure out how to uninstall and reinstall fallout into the games folder bc the decompressor won’t work with the game installed in program files x86

"Who will get into New Vegas and not know what to do"

Literally the best of the game in my opinion.

I´ve been trying to play Viva New Vegas but I can´t figure out how to play the game using DXVK, which I am required to have since I have a AMD graphics card, in fullscreen.
The only way I can play is if I put the game in windowed and vsync off otherwise I'll have low fps, does anyone know how to fix this?

dude its so complicated to figure out. I cant get it working. why are people its so easy, its like 10 pages and 500 steps of pretty difficult to understand instructions.

I'm losing my mind with the vanilla game holy crap it's an horrible experience.

followed install to the letter - crashes on startup. Thanks for wasting my time

I tried to play it lol added mods just to try to make it run. Couldn't. Got so frustrated.

I heckin love fallout 1 and 2 but I've never made it very far in any of the other fallout games. I'm hoping that following this guide will spark my interest in New Vegas.

idk why my wabbajack is unable to download all the modlist..

Do I need a NASA PC to run this mod properly? 😢

I love fallout 3 so much

My game has been performing AMAZING on my Xbox series X. I've never seen New Vegas look so good. The FPS boost is a game changer.

Is this game good to play on the series X? In terms of bugs and all that

I just finished installing Viva New Vegas and for some reason the game now runs at like 8fps..... what did I do wrong lmao!?

maaan i bought new vegas on my xbox and now i cant play it on pc like i did with doom even tho i already bought it

your character looks like me(irl).kinda uncanny tbh.

I wish I could do this, but I am too stupid.

New Vegas is a Masterpiece no matter what year!

I've been using Viva New Vegas for over a year now and I absolutely 100% endorse it. Even for a first time player, you should run the VNV Base modlist for just for the insane amount of stability improvements/bugfixes. VNV Extended is great for veteran players and I love the "Vanilla+" philosophy behind it, it adds QoL features and tons of cut content, while still keeping the "soul" of the vanilla game. The only requirement is to be able to read and follow instructions. Then you can even add mods on top of it if you want, but you better know what you're doing if you choose to do that.

I've had some issues personally, I think it stemmed from a pop-up getting accidentally clicked before I could read what it was I clicked. I think that's why I think MO2 couldnt find the game, I tried and failed to figure it out (and may have made it worse). Then I decided to delete all the progress I felt confident wouldnt cause issues, and tried the wabbajack route. Upon finding the modlist in wabbajack I couldnt find a way to designate the download location before download, maybe the modlist download location was that afterall. But anyways, I downloaded the modlist and it said the installation has failed because it can't find the game. I did make a separate folder that I downloaded everything in, well three so I have a place for the game, then wabbajack, then the modlist. I feel like I didnt mess anything up since going down this wabbajack route and Im not sure what to do anymore and Im afraid that I'll further complicate the issue insuring I never actual get this done. One thought I've just had is it could have to do with my AMD processor or whatever, but I thought that fix was later in the process. Sorry for the messy and long explanation, if anyone can make any sense of this I'd be extremely grateful :)

I play modless new vegas on my laptop and only experienced like maybe 5 or 10 crashes max it’s not as bad as my friend in his gaming pc

Work with pirate versions?

I did exactly what was said in the video but every time after the intro sequence it just sends me back to the steam page any ideas?

Thank you for talking like a normal human being

Best way to play New Vegas is to install Wabbajack and the "Begin again" TTW mod pack. It bundles 3 and NV together. But also adds a bunch of quality of life improvements and brings them into the modern era. Its better then anything BGS is ever gonna do with these games.

It look like to be a pain in the ass to download and install... And it don't works in another language than english. Some French players have their game broken. Why should i try?

why does it keep crashin when i load up, i have it on epic games

Y’all recommend this over ttw begin again? I’m playing thru fo3 rn with it bc it’s widely regarded as the best experience for that game but if people recommend viva for fnv id give it a shot.

Will i still be able to get the achievements if i do this?

Subscribed after this video. Definitely want that nostalgia. Replayed Fallout 4 and I’m still fiending for more fallout cheers 🥂

so easy to install FAWKS can do it.

Are there any similar mod packages for Fallout 3? I tried modding it with various mods and ran into multiple file conflict issues. I'd love to have a similar "how-to-mod" package like this to make it better to play.

lol yeah, SUUUUUUUPER EASY to install. Automatic install doesn't work at all and the manual one is so damn finicky and not clear at all. I just want to play New Vegas without it crashing all the time😭😭😭

This is the first time I've ever modded a game like this. I usually don't mod games; and if I do, I use the steam workshop. I wanted to put my experience in the comments for any other noobs that might be interested in doing this. Hopefully, I can put forth my thoughts without it being a jumbled mess, lol. The main reason I wanted to download this is because, when I would strafe left or right or look around using the mouse there would be a constant micro-stutter that was giving me a headache. Thankfully, after I completed all the steps in the guide, it fixed the problem and the game plays and looks fantastic!

Firstly, while this was easy, for someone like me, it was more difficult than I was expecting. The biggest surprise was the amount of time it took. You will be manually downloading approximately 60 files. If this is your first time modding a game, expect it to take about 4-6 hours. You will have to read, and re-read, the steps to make sure you don't miss anything. You will probably download a file in the wrong folder and have to delete and re-download the file or move it to the correct folder. Also, the titles in the guide, most of those are hyperlinks that will take you right to the download page. Don't be like me and go to nexus mods and start searching for the mod using the search bar. Thankfully I figured this out pretty quick. One more final tip, when you are downloading the files directly to the mod organizer, you have to double click the file in the downloads section. This will install the file and it will show up on the left side of the mod organizer's UI. You will then be able to check the box to initialize the mod.

Hopefully this helps!

I really liked fallout 4 and I want to play new Vegas but I don’t wanna play with mods at all on my first play through but I’m worried about the crashing should I still play

thanks mate

Will I still receive trophies with these mods?

Does fallout new vegas run on windows 11?

Honestly i love the look of the fallout franchise, it just seems so realisticly bleak. I have never played with mods so this will be something ill have to try.

A small tip. If you want Tale of Two Wastelands (the mod that adds Fallout 3 into New Vegas), follow the guide called "The best of Times" instead. It's made by the same person who made Viva New Vegas, and includes most mods from Viva

I wish I knew what overhalls you used

This video couldve been 5 seconds long? you just said google viva new vegas. lol

Any thoughts on how to change the fov in TTW? I checked the viva new vegas website, but it doesn't seem to include an fov change option. Or am I missing something?

Born & Raised in Vegas, bought it a week after it released not knowing what it was. Was only playing borderlands 1 and battlefield bad company 2 at that point, LOVINGGGG both. Then I bought this, and it instantly became a favorite. This era of gaming was sooo amazing. I’m 26 now, I was 12 back then. I truly wish I could go back and just play this for the first time again and live in 2010/2011 again, simple, amazing times out here in Vegas, playing outside in the day time, and playing New Vegas in the evening/night time.

my first fallout was fallout 4 on the ps4. however i switched to pc just to play new vagas
