You have saved my life by making this video! I hate downloading mods normally because I can never get them to work and it gets so overwhelming but you explained this so comprehensively that it took all the stress out of the process. Thank you so so much!!

there's something to be mentioned about the x86 vs x64 files. Telling them to look at what their program files folder says ex: (program filesx86) isn't a good way to inform them because they can be running 64 bit windows and still have a program files x86 folder. that will lead to confusion and make them download the x86 file instead of the x64 file that they actually need. Best way for them to find out what they have is to go into windows settings and look at the system tab. There it will state which OS they are running.

Dude so, so true. Started playing this game a couple weeks ago, (First Fallout game too.) I enjoyed it a LOT. One of my favourite games right now, but the bugs and errors got so infuriating, my friends told me about the mods that fix most of the issues, as they help me play the game as well. (Together in a call, it's really awesome.) But installing mods seemed so intimidating, they said it'll take ages since it's super complicated. This video did show how complicated the installation process is, but this definitely made it easier. I had everything ready in about an hour, until I ruined it myself. Back at square one, going to mod it for the second time. Good luck out there, courier!

I have never watched such an easy to follow tutorial before. Thank you for making this video, you are a real lifesaver.

Hugely helpful. Returning to a modded FNV after a few years and on a different system and a LOT has changed. Most NV modding tutorials on YT are now WAY out of date. I love Gopher for example but his NV stuff has not been updated in a long time. Similarly, a lot of the mods have not been updated, it's a mine field modding this game now. So good to see you are one of the few keeping on top of it.

this was so helpful, i haven't modded fonv since i was running windows 7 like 8 years ago. everything is so different now and i couldn't figure anything out because most tutorials are outdated. this was great!! thank you :)

Currently viewing the 4 GB mod and I'm SUPER impressed at how you list every single step. You show where on a page to download, the folder to put things in, even where to download winrar (I like 7zip). I will note that those going for 86x need to pick the correct option when downloading the redist thing (not the first you list but the second). It wasn't any issue since it's also on the same page to download. I'll update when I reach the end of the video! Thank you a million times. I want to set the game up perfectly so I can enjoy New Vegas once again.

For all the 2024 people: when the JIP LN NVSE Plugin says that it requires nvse 6.something or higher, it means that, since 2021 (release date of this guide), nvse has updated, and is currently at ver 6. all you have to do is click the "xNVSE v6.something" orange button, download the 7zip file (with winrar) and do the same proceedure as NVSE ver 5 in the guide :)

Yeah had this issue. To anyone struggling if you’ve accidentally installed NVSE 5, just remove all the NVSE 5 files from the root folder for NV and replace it with NVSE 6 (I think it’s 6.1?) files. Easy enough. If you can’t remember what files are NVSE 5 in your NV root folder, redownload NVSE 5 from Nexus and match the files to the files in the NV root folder and remove them then just move NVSE 6 files in there instead.

@ESO for your reference you say to look a the c: drive and see Program files folder that says x86 then say it will say x64. a better way to find out what version you want would be to right click the my computer icon and select properties and then look at the "System Type:" line which will say 64 bit Operating system x64 or x86 for a 32 bit system. In the file folder section any 64bit applications will get installed in the "Program Files" folder and any 32 bit applications will be installed in the "Program File (x86)" directory.

@@PortableFreezer No not really but his explanation of it was lacking. If there is an x86 folder then you will likely be running a 64 bit system as that folder is normally missing on a 32 bit install (it may be there if someone accidentally installed app that works in both versions and does not check to see what OS is running? But I cannot confirm this as I have never installed a 32 bit version of an OS that supported 64bits). As the program files folder would be the main and location for all application on an x86 cpu system.

I noticed this mistake, also. This FUBAR, on ESO's part, makes me wonder if he made anymore, that I didn't catch. Like, what if I already have those files, or newer versions, on my PC (which I'm pretty sure I do), will reinstalling them override files needed by other games? I'm pretty sure most games use these files, and most likely, if you play games a lot, they will already be installed. AAMF, when you start OutRiders, it asks if you want to use DirectX 11 or 12.

Tbh, had no idea how any of this worked but glad this video helped guide me through figuring it all out, so big thanks to ESO!!!
