This is my "core" TTW install: the minimum number of mods I would play with. Okay fine, I could probably pare it down a lot more. But I like these ones, and I'm working to make this install fast and stable as I can get it. Yay!
To-Do
- Test the rest of the fixes in F&L to see if they work.
Preliminaries
Follow the instructions in these parts of the excellent Fear & Loathing in New Vegas guide:
TTW
TTW Main and Optional
Grab the installer, extract it and run the .exe. Point the installer to your FO3 and FNV installs, and for your TTW install point it to your Mod Organizer mods folder. Try to uncheck the "sexy" box and giggle. Marvel at how much faster the install is than it once was (used to be several hours--huge improvement!). Politely decline when it asks you if you want to build FOMODs. Open up Mod Organizer and rename the mods if you want.
Next, open up the INI editor, click the tab for falloutprefs.ini, find the following lines and change them:
SCharGenQuest = 001FFFF8 sIntroMovie = bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles = 1
Make sure the "sIntroMovie" is blank after the equal sign, or else you'll have to watch through two intro movies!
Make sure your load order is as so:
FalloutNV.esm DeadMoney.esm HonestHearts.esm OldWorldBlues.esm LonesomeRoad.esm GunRunnersArsenal.esm CaravanPack.esm ClassicPack.esm MercenaryPack.esm TribalPack.esm Fallout3.esm Anchorage.esm ThePitt.esm BrokenSteel.esm PointLookout.esm Zeta.esm TaleOfTwoWastelands.esm
Double click on your "optional files" mod and go to "optional EPSs". Here, select the optional addons you want and move them to the "available ESPs" area. Each addon has its own folder, inside of which is a text file that describes what that addon does. You can consult that to figure out which ones you want. Here's the ones I usually enable:
- Bobbleheads
- More Cooking Items
- No Karma DC Followers
- Skill Based Speech Challenges
- Startup Menu (don't enable this one if you want to start in DC, it causes some weirdness)
- Stash Pack Options
- Super Mutant Rebalance
TTW Bugfixes
Hotfixes
Download the hotfixes and create a mod for them by making a folder in your MO "mods" folder, then moving the .esp files into it.
Official Bugfix Pack TTW
Grab it the latest and install it. If it's not directly under TTW's esm in your load order, move it there.
Extenders
Install NVSE and the 4GB loader as described in the F&L guide.
Fixes
Install New Vegas Anti-Crash and New Vegas Stutter Remover as described in the F&L guide here. (I haven't tried out the other ones on TTW yet.)
User Interface
DarnUI TTW
Open up your INI editor, and in both fallout.ini and falloutprefs.ini, find the [Fonts] section and replace it with this:
[Fonts] ;sFontFile_1=Textures\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_Large.fnt sFontFile_1=Textures\Fonts\DarN_FranKleinBold_14.fnt ;sFontFile_2=Textures\Fonts\Monofonto_Large.fnt sFontFile_2=Textures\Fonts\DarN_FranKleinBold_16.fnt sFontFile_3=Textures\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_Medium.fnt ;sFontFile_4=Textures\Fonts\Monofonto_VeryLarge02_Dialogs2.fnt sFontFile_4=Textures\Fonts\DarN_Sui_Generis_Otl_10.fnt sFontFile_5=Textures\Fonts\Fixedsys_Comp_uniform_width.fnt ;sFontFile_6=Textures\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_VL_dialogs.fnt sFontFile_6=Textures\Fonts\DarN_Sui_Generis_Otl_13.fnt ;sFontFile_7=Textures\Fonts\Baked-in_Monofonto_Large.fnt sFontFile_7=Textures\Fonts\DarN_Libel_Suit_Otl_24.fnt sFontFile_8=Textures\Fonts\Glow_Futura_Caps_Large.fnt sFontFile_9=Textures\Fonts\NVFont_Test.fnt
MCM
Get The Mod Configuration Menu main file and the MCM BugFix 2 update file. Merge, and replace when asked.
oHud
Get the One HUD (oHUD) main file and the One HUD (oHUD) Darnified Patch optional file. Merge when asked.
I very much prefer this to ENB. It's more easily and readily tweaked, and it results in higher framerates for me. Download the "FULL" version.
UIO
Makin' it allllll work together, baby.
AFTER all of this is done, open up DarnUI and move "DarNifiedUINV.esp" to the Optional ESPs: we're using oHud, so its HUD extensions are not needed.
Supplemental UI & UI Patches
Lutana NVSE Plugin
CASM with MCM
Traits Menu DarNified
Misc Item Icons
Nothing fancy with any of these: just download and install them.
Visuals
These are just newer/prettier meshes and textures, and they are ALL optional. Most of them will make it slower.
Hall Of Equipment TTW
Download and install the Fallout 3 version, then download and merge the New Vegas version.
PocoBueno
No FO3 version of this, so just install the one.
NMC Texture Pack
Follow the instructions here to clean up and combine the packs. FO3, NV.
- Note: I went for the medium pack. I also installed the Washed Out Wasteland pack separately, so that I can turn it off when I get to the Mojave.
Textures Over Time
Get the FlagStoneWalls, HH_Sandstone, and Sandbags main files ONLY. Merge.
TTW Redesigned
Install Project Beauty, then Redesigned, merging the two. You will need to manually install both.
Customizing for TTW
It's important to me that Tale of Two Wastelands be its own game, not just 3 and NV smooshed together. That's what these mods are for.
Concept Art Loading Screens
- Author: Mutent
- Installation: --
- Note: Replaces the main menu screens with Fallout concept art. I like it because it's wasteland-agnostic, so to speak.
No Loading Screen Text
- Author: Archanix
- Installation: --
- Note: Removes the loading screen tip text. I was having issues with more than one set of text showing up at once; this avoids that issue.
Radiation Loading Roulette Wheel
- Author:
- Installation: --
- Note: Turns the roulette wheel into a radiation symbol.
Digital Nightmare - Music Overhaul
- Author:
- Installation: --
- Note: Listening to the New Vegas music makes me think I'm in the Mojave. No good. This gives TTW its own musical score.
Delay DLC - TTW
- Author: Gribbleshnibit8
- Installation: --
- Note: Requires you to be within a certain distance of the broadcast location before the DLC radio signal is picked up. On the TTW forums.
TTW Companions Essential
Controller Support
Pinnacle, yo.
