Mods for Fallout 3 and New Vegas Options

[mirocu]

Suggestions, recommendations, comments, discussions... Anything as long as it involves mods for the Fallout games.

{Moderator note: With the addition of a FO4 mods thread, let's now limit this one to FO3 and NV mods.}

These are the mods I use for Fallout 3:

*Gunny (companion)
*The Vulcan minigun (and an additional mod that changes the rate of fire)
*Lucy as companion (though she has disappeared from the game now, should I take a hint...? )
*Rideable subway trains (love this one!!)
*Immortal travelling merchants
*Custom icons for some miscellaneous items in the Pip-Boy
*Auto Aim Fix
*FOMM
*New crosshair
*No Goo piles
*More damage from the sawed-off shotgun
*Merchant selling goods from Point Lookout
*Scopeless .44 Magnums

I must have more but these are the ones I can remember. I'll add the rest when I get home and can check the list.

Out of these I enjoy the icon mod and the Gunny mod the most. The subway train mod is awesome and I love it, but since I mostly run around in the wasteland I don't get around to using it so much. It definitely adds to the atmosphere though and I strongly recommend it, and for the best effect it should be played in a pitch black room at night

Edit: After reading Rosa's post I have added a couple to the list. Can't believe I forgot about Auto Aim Fix!

My main mods for New Vegas:

Active Wasteland - makes it possible to interact with some object like lamps, hydrants, coffee machines etc...

Burning Campfire - when you activate a campfire, it'll burn for a while

Delay DLC - stops annoying messages "This DLC has been loaded. Level cap increased", instead it prevents them from loading unless you get to close to its starting location or your level is high enough

Sheriff Meyers - a simple mod which gives Meyers a true sheriff outfit instead of letting him wear his Powder Ganger armor when he becomes a sheriff

NPCs travel - adds a bunch of respawning travelers, making FNV a less desolate place. At first I liked that Mojave is more or less deserted but with time I was longing to see some life in the desert

Frequency of assassination attempts - a mod that lets you choose how long you want intervals to be between Legion/NCR hit squads. I have mine set to 21 days, default is 3

Grimy Pre-War Businesswear fix - in the vanilla game a wrong texture is used so all businesswears have the same texture, this mod fixes it and uses the appropriate texture

Hall of Face - HiRes faces, eyes,...

Headgear Revamp - makes it possible to wear certain headgear together

Karma Killing Fix - you no longer get rewarded with good karma for killing Fiends

Leather backpack - adds a leather backpack to the game, obviously, one also involves a mattress, so you can sleep anywhere

Merchants repair any armor - even those without any DT

More seatable couches - you can't interact quite a few of them in the base game

Mojave Radio and FNV Radio extenders

Nights are Darker - ...

Nipton Revisited - clears burning fire and removes crucified victims after some time passes

No Empty Message - removes the annoying empty message from containers

Extra Actions - allows you to open safes with explosives, force lock with melee weapons etc...Find links for other mods in the Description section

PipBoys to the people - adds PipBoys to some people that should have them in first place

Primm Reputation Restored - for some reason Primm Rep was cut from the final release

Radial Blur Remover - removes annoying blur when hit or in VATS

Real Smokes - adds smokeable cigarettes

ReElijahfied - makes Elijah looks like he looks on the hologram

SCC - allows you to recruit any NPC. Must be used in conjuction with SCC Heal Fix because the original version doesn't allow you to heal followers

Screen Blood - Optional Plugins - removes blood from screen when hit. The newest version is complicated and comes with too many features of if someone's interested in merely removing blood, you have to use an older version of the mod

Shorter Chem Wear Off effects - does what it says

Sheriff Duster - increases its DT

Sit Anywhere - press X and sit down anywhere

Solar's Bottled Water - allows you to bottle water

Mods from Someguy2000 - New Vegas Bounties I & II, The Inheritance? (the best quest mods for FNV IMO)

Stronger Merchants - they no longer get killed that easily

The Strip Credit Check - increase it to 5000 or 10000

Throw and Retrieve - allows you to retrieve thrown items if the target was hit. Works well with Throwing Knives replenishment which adds TKs to merchants and raiders

Ultimate Invisible Wall Remover - removes some invisible barriers

That's most of them. I use some body replacers, Breeze for males and Dimonized Type 3 for women and corresponding armor sets, I also use unofficial patches which I didn't list above.

I'm still looking for a mod that'd allow you to sleep anywhere without requiring a mattress or a perk from Lonesome Road DLC. Something like blankets from Fallout 3. Hopefully someone will port this mod one day.
