[@flyyamir402]

Viva new Vegas is a life saver

[@AntiMullahs]

Same, comes from a guy who played fallout 4 16 times on ps4, 5 times on my first gaming laptop, 2 times on my new pc, then i sold my ps4 and got an xbox series s, started with skyrim, then suddenly saw new vegas on gamepass, played it for 1000 hours, with 11 different characters, then bought all dlcs and played 4 more times, graphics were old and bit of a let down at first, but i couldnt fucking believe what a cool character idea was to be as a courier, a true mmo rpg like feeling, completely anonymous character that you build up reputation with, and the brutality of the fighting system, where when i explode someone in fallout new vegas it feels more dark than fallout4, i never couldve taken fallout 4 brutality seriously cause it felt like a sarcastic game to me not saying it was bad, but anyway right now im playing new vegas with mods on my new 6600xt graphic and it feels like home

This is why I love this channel. Some of these mods are so cool, and I would have otherwise had no idea they even existed if not for watching these showcase videos.

[@robertsmalls2293]

Sounds like a problem on your end. Try New Vegas Anti-Crash.

[@jamesmcmackin8773]

I'm about 200 plugins deep, and the only crashes I've had in the last year have been from a vanilla glitch with custom timescales (I play at 2) that can be fixed before entering DLC areas.

[@caseyhall2320]

My friend, look up Viva New Vegas. I'm serious. I've played over 50 hours of NV with only 1 crash. And that's with other mods on top of the Viva New Vegas guide. It's so worth a new playthrough just to NOT have to deal with the buggy and crashy bullshizzle.

[@TrueSonOfSkyrim]

It can be difficult for the first time, but it's really routine, I am running it right now with around 100 mods plus Fallout 3 loaded in the engine on problematic hardware (This pc was used at some point for hardware mining) and I had literally 1 crash in a year

[@TheBuster0926]

To compress all of these tips, for anyone in the future. The most important thing to do first, especially on windows 10/11 systems is to use the *4gb patcher*. Johnny Guitar, NVSE, Anti-Stutter, Ect. All were worthless to me, crashes ever 7 minutes. You *Have to* run that 4gb patcher.

[@HDBallsak]

1:53 is very accurate. I've only completed this game twice. Once on the xbox 360 years ago and Once a couple of weeks ago. once I got this game on PC two years ago I couldn't stop downloading an abundance of mods and making new characters because of it.

[@KiarenGrae]

Bruh, you need time stamps.

[@TicoTheTerrorist]

He added time stamps a year later

[@Slosten]

You're really missing out on all the weapon animation sets by not using nifs with patched iron sights. All of the animation mods you showed include custom ADS firing animations, but they aren't showing up in your game/footage because they require a particular parent node for the iron sight nodes on the weapon meshes. I think Hitman released a package including patched iron sights for all the base game weapons, but for people like me that have *a lot* of different mods that edit base game weapon meshes, you can also very easily patch your entire meshes folder with Zilav's "Sniff" tool. Sidenote for more advanced users: if you're using a combination of kNVSE animation sets and Asurah's animations (or you're a mod author that wants to offer native compatibility for both options), you can patch weapon nifs to use both Asurah's "SIGHTANIM" parent node and kNVSE's "ISControl" parent node. Add the ISControl parent first, then add the SIGHTANIM node as a parent to the ISControl node (in the end, it should go SIGHTANIM -> ISControl -> SightingNode). Both will work by doing it in this order, so you can swap which animations you're using on the fly without having to re-patch your nifs.

[@kielbasamage]

Oh thank god, I tried a cowboy run and the single action army’s irons were just so much worse than I remembered.

[@IbrahiemLegoFilms]

But if I only download Hitman's animations Seasons, I don't need to patch iron sights or anything right?

[@Slosten]

@@IbrahiemLegoFilms there's a mod now that automatically patches iron sights for animations that use ISControl, which all of Hitman's kNVSE animations use (in fact, I think Asurah's animations are the only ones that use SIGHTANIM instead). As long as you have that installed, no, you don't need to do anything else. I can't remember what it's called, but it should be easy to find. Edit: ISControl Enabler by Xilandro. If you're only interested in using kNVSE animations, that's all you need.

[@Jackson00450]

There is one thing to say. Juicehead is not using "Sniff". There is a tutorial on KZbin made by Hitman I think. It's a program that connect the "Sightnode" of the guns, just by selecting the meshes folder. Follow the tutorial, and after a few minutes, you will understand how it works. This make the recoil more realistic, and not making the gun just going up while shooting, or making the rifles not so unmovable during the recoil animations. It just feels smoother. Check the video

At this point if you don't have all of the DLC for FNV you're doing yourself a disservice and are seriously limiting yourself on how many mods you can actually download. I mean, the DLC packs themselves go on sale on Steam all the time. Summer sale and holiday sale is probably when they're at their cheapest. No reason to not get them, at this point. Even without mods the stories in each DLC are great.

[@caseyhall2320]

Dude, definitely swap them. PN is amazingly fun but it also causes the game to be way more prone to crashing.

[@jamesmcmackin8773]

With a modern and logical mod setup, Project Nevada will still work fine with no noticeable problems. The biggest exception is the Equipment module in TTW, you'll have to keep that one off since it touches weapon records that are altered for TTW. You'll also want to disable Enemy Knockdown in TTW when you follow Liberty Prime, he doesn't like being knocked down very much. If you use Rebalance's custom timescale, adjust it back to 30 (via MCM *and* commands) whenever there's an event that advances time, like before going to any DLC areas for the first time, or getting PA training, it'll crash otherwise, but its a vanilla bug to begin with. The technical reason PN gets cited as outdated is because it was made in 2014, before NVSE had its current event handler functions, so PN is forced to juggle about a dozen scripts or so at all times that could be avoided if it were made today with updated xNVSE functionality. I've completed the entire game, DLC and all, using the full PN installation, and am still playing with it post-endgame in The Frontier alongside about 200 other plugins, and I can safely say it has yet to be fully and properly replaced 1:1 by any other mods.
