Switches leveling to an Elder Scrolls-esque scheme. This mod is one that demands a LOT of fiddling to get it just so, so I suggest you get the optional files as well and merge them in so you can activate their ESPs as needed.

NOTE

Very unfinished: I've gotta re-do my core TTW install, cuz I can't remember what I did the first time. Don't expect any of this to like, actually work.

I'm trying to combine Clear & Present Danger and Fear & Loathing in a working and hopefully stable TTW install, and needed a place to put my notes. So that's what this thing is. Yup.

I'm also using this as a reference. Thanks for making your notes available, Adonis VII!


To-Do[edit | edit source]


First Things First![edit | edit source]

Go through the TTW Core install. Come back here when you're done.

Leveling[edit | edit source]

This is the non-vanilla TTW install, so we can futz about with the leveling scheme more.

Practice Makes Perfect[edit | edit source]

Switches leveling to an Elder Scrolls-esque scheme. This mod is one that demands a LOT of fiddling to get it just so, so I suggest you get the optional files as well and merge them in so you can activate their ESPs as needed. I mostly use PMPitems.esp, to make lockpicking less sketchy, and two perks per level to tie into the perk mods below. There's some discussion of skill advancement rates here.

Perk Mods[edit | edit source]

Optional but cool: gives you more perks to choose from. I suggest you download both More Perks and the TTW Perk Overhaul.

User Interface[edit | edit source]

Project Nevada[edit | edit source]

It will ask if you want to keep your newer MCM files: you do. Make sure you check it to enable it before moving on.

PN Extra Options[edit | edit source]

Don't tick the equipment module when installing, there isn't one.

PN TTW Patch[edit | edit source]

Grab the "Project Nevada - TTW 2.7.3 Patch" link--i.e. the link that's not for those who don't use the equipment module. (Double negatives ahoy!)

Patches[edit | edit source]

PN Med-X Fix[edit | edit source]
PN Extra Options Implant Texture[edit | edit source]
PN Extra Options MCM Script Fixes[edit | edit source]

Make a mod for 'em, merge 'em together.


Bling[edit | edit source]

A.K.A. visuals.

Nevada Skies[edit | edit source]

I suggest getting the Brighter Nights addon as well: merge it in. Put everything but the esm, TTW Edition and Brighter Nights files into Optional ESPs.


Male & Female Body/Armor[edit | edit source]

At the moment I don't actually have this installed, but when I did I followed the instructions in the FAQ.

Vurt's Flora Overhaul[edit | edit source]

The wasteland just looks weird to me without some trees. You may have to run the installer several times to get all of the LOD patches you're gonna want, since it only allows you to select one at a time. I use Dead Edition for FO3, Fertile Wasteland for NV, and the NMC LOD patch. Install more of the LOD patches and merge them in to your existing mod if you see issues, particularly with those joshua trees.

Random Cool Stuff[edit | edit source]

All the radio mods evah!

Radio Extender Mod[edit | edit source]

Makes it so you can hear the different radio stations wherever you are in the wasteland. Doesn't appear to cause conflicts with Delay DLC. Required to make the following radio mods work.

Old World Radio[edit | edit source]

Adds a bunch of old radio shows! I'm such a huge fan of these things. Get the "complete mod" download.

Quests & Cut Content[edit | edit source]

Cool but, of course, totally optional. Allllllll optional.
