How to manually mod Fallout: New Vegas





So you want to learn how to mod Fallout: New Vegas manually? That's what I thought. Be aware that this is for STEAM!!!! This is a steam guide to mod fallout new vegas. First, go to Computer/Local Disc(C:)/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/fallout new vegas/data. Once you're there, you need to download the mod you want to have (which you can find lots of here), and then extract it. In order to extract it you will need a file archiver like 7zip. 7zip is free and very easy to use. Here is the link. Don't worry it is very safe and reliable. Extract your mod somewhere easy to access (like your desktop) and then, before anything else, read the readme file that mods almost always come with. It is very important you do this. Now, open up whatever folder that the mod comes with that you extracted that has the data in it. Highlight and cut the texture and sounds folder, then move everything into the data folder for the game. Now paste the texture and sound folder. When it asks you to overwrite or replace, click yes to all. Now take the esp or esm or both if it came with both, and move them to the data folder as well. Launch New Vegas, click data files on the launcher, check the esp/esm/both, and launch the game. Your done.
