NMC's Texture Pack - Hi Res Texture replacements.
Interiors are large and cluttered in a lore-friendly manner: ĭC Interiors Project - Add interiors to over one hundred buildings and houses that have no vanilla interior: įallout 3 Redesigned - This mod redesigns the facial structure of NPCs to give them a more natural appearance, while preserving their character: Ī World of Pain - adds new, detailed interior locations with many enemies to battle, several quests, and new companions. Changes to the game are very numerous - check the mod description for details. Has much in common with New Vegas' "hardcore" mode. įallout Wanderer's Edition - An comprehensive overhaul of Fallout 3 mechanics and features with an eye to increasing the challenge of the game.
Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch - The patch contains a large collection of bug fixes for the main game and the DLC. Running in a window provides greater stability, a boon to a game as crash prone as FO3: ĭarnifiedUI - This replaces the native, console-centric UI with one better suited to a PC display. This will allow the executable to address 4GB of RAM: įake Fullscreen Mode Windowed - This will render your game in a window instead of fullscreen, then remove the borders so that it appears indistinguishable from fullscreen. Large Address Aware Enabler - the Fallout 3 executable is flagged to only address 2GB of RAM regardless of how much RAM your system has.
Nexus Mod Manager - A package manager that makes installing, uninstalling and managing your mods much easier. Its merely a list of mods and utilities I have found useful or enjoyable. This is not intended to be a best-ever mod list. Hope you find something of interest here. Good advice can also be found in the sub's sidebar.
The NMM, Nexus Mod Manager is really only good for installing anything packed in the "FoMod" archive format and its absolutely garbage for mod organizing it can't detect conflicts, it won't tell you if you have any errors all it does is say "yes, you installed this have fun.This question comes up quite often and I have responded a number of times so please forgive this time saving cut-and-paste post from my previous recommendations on Fallout 3 mods. Skyrim has a mod "cap" its about 200 or so before the game gets really crash prone, I myself am running about 100 mods and at least a quarter of them are various bug fixes and general game improvements. Also if you have the 3 Hi-res DLC's from steam turn them off the textures in those packs are poorly optimized and can lead to memory issues and game crashes, if you really want those textures you can find optimized versions of those packs on the Nexus site and they won't require you to waste space for 3 useless esp files. If you have all the DLC's for Skyrim I would also recommend getting the Unofficial patches for all of them Bethesda left a lot of bugs in them which never got fixed, the unofficial patches fix most of them. On the other hand you can try to use Mod Organizer which is pretty good even if its a bit time consuming to get it working for you, which can take a bit of time since you are forced to go through its tutorial before it'll let you do anything with it. Take the time to find the Skyrim version of Wrye Bash (can be found on the Nexus search Wrye Bash) its known as Wrye Smash, it'll let you know if you have any conflicts but its not capable of telling you what said conflict is which is a bit of a problem. But right now, it crashes everytime i enter megaton. And i have learned about merging mods and making bashed patches. I moved over to fallout 3 for a fresh start. Since then, i have learned about modding. In my eyes, it was big abomination filled with crashfests.
All the modding and the hopeless searching for fixes gave me headaches.Įvery time i looked at the skyrim icon on my desktop, all i saw was a big mass of thousands of unstable, broken and corrupted files merged together, like some disgusting monster from a horror movie with all kinds of flesh melted together. There were conflicts, compatabillity issues, and so on.
And i learned, that modding wasn't that simple. The game was very unstable, i had performance issues and the game crashed all the time. And when i finally had about 50+ mods, and launched the game for the first time with mods, everything started to go down. There were so many mods, but i always wanted more. I started to download more and more mods, without even trying them in-game first.
I thought that all you had to do, was download the mods, and apply it. When i started playing skyrim with mods, i thought it was very simple.
