From Cold and Mountainous to Dry and Arid

The Fallout New Vegas Mod Experience

With a big credit to EssArrBee's Fear and Loathing in New Vegas

Also Gopher, NexusMods, the list will grow and have it's own's section as some point.

For $12, I couldn't pass up on the complete Fallout New Vegas pack during the Steam Summer Sale.

Applying the same methodology that STEP uses (maybe STEP's an evolution of the NV methodology, I don't really know), I'm going to try and run it modded as well.

My goal here is similar to that of my goal when modding Skyrim. I want to create something that I find enjoyable to play, close to vanilla, lore-friendly, with some game-play tweaks to extend the survival/crafting elements of the game and make combat a challenge (and not a repetitive bore). I'd also like to expand on the world with new quest content, more NPCs and a more 'lived in' game environment.

Pretty straight-forward here, most of this was already done to mod Skyrim
