What mods should I get for Fallout New Vegas?
These lists are always a work in progress, and created with help from the community. They will be adjusted and updated over time. Posts will be made on /r/falloutmods to update the lists from time to time, with community input. For more info, PM /u/Cyrus224
Using this guide - Read First -
It is important to realize that not every mod is for you. Some people like realism, some people like overpowered weapons, some people have super powerful computers and want to push them to the max with graphical mods.
I have created a generalized list of popular mods, and another few lists (that may have duplicate listed mods) for people looking for certain things for their games.
Keep in mind! Not all of these mods are compatible with each other, some mods need to be chosen over others (lighting overhauls for example) READ EVERYTHING on a mods page for infoHere is a break down of what to expect :
Here are tags to help you out :
[NLF] NOT LORE FREINDLY - This means the mod does not fit into the lore and canon of the Fallout Universe for whatever reason. Most of the time it will be due to weapons and items added in that do not exist in fallouts timeline
[PWR] POWERFUL RIG NEEDED - This will tell you that the mod listed requires a fairly powerful computer to run. Note, some of these mods have versions for people with lesser hardware
[NSFW] Pretty self explanatory. This mod contains nudity or other content that goes beyond Fallouts normal level of violence
[BIG] This mod is BIG. Any mod over 1gb in size will be listed with this tag
The Starting List
This will list mods that are on a lot of peoples top lists. They may or may not be lore friendly (and will be tagged as such) This list is a compilation of mods off of the Nexus Top 100, My Personal list, and some choices from the community. These mods may be in other lists on this page as well.

Fallout New Vegas Armor Mods
POST CATEGORIES
To a lot of people, New Vegas is the best game out of the Fallout series. Choices mattered, lore was deep and the story was amazing. Although some people disagree. If you’re one of the people who did love New Vegas, then we have a mod for you!
Nexus Mods user captain-ultima has created a mod pack from his New Vegas Uniques series, which brings a load of weapons from Fallout New Vegas, straight into Fallout 4. These guns include CZ57 Avenger, Cleansing Flame, Esther, Holy Frag Grenade, AER14 Prototype, Pew Pew, Q-35 Matter Modulator and the Sprtel-Wood 9700.
It’s important to note that the developer hasn’t actually ported the weapons over from game to game. Instead, they have recreated each gun to the best of their ability. When installing the weapons, a quest will pinpoint you to where you can find them in Fallout 4.
We are linking directly to a pack, which contains all the weapons in one file. However, if you only want to install specific ones, you can do so by looking at captain-ultima profile, or searching for ‘New Vegas Uniques’. What’s even better is that each of these weapons can be modded, compared to New Vegas where they can’t.
How to install this mod
This mod can be easily installed through the Nexus Mod Manager if you have it installed already. If not, you can also install this mod manually. We will show you how below:
- Head to the mod page here, and choose ‘Manual Download‘.
- A ZIP File will begin to download. Inside are all the mod files.
- Open your Fallout 4 installation directory. If you don’t know where it is, open Steam, right click Fallout 4 and choose properties. Select ‘Local Files’, then ‘Browse local files’.
- Going back to the ZIP File, drop the files inside into your data folder.
