Fallout Weapon Retexture Project

Some weapon retextures made by Arenovalis (a.k.a. Millenia) - which are collected into his Weapon Retexture Project or 'WRP' - will work automatically with WMX without any need for a compatibility patch. Others, however,.do. need one, and that is what this compatibility patch (WMX-WRP) is for.

How to Install Mods - Fallout: New Vegas

Fallout NV isn’t the easiest game to mod, but we have troubleshot and done our best to provide a bug-free mod list. Follow these instructions and Fallout NV should work (mostly) fine:

Retexture
  • Install Fallout NV (including DLC).
  • Install Nexus Mod Manager and direct it to your Fallout NV folder if it does not detect it automatically.
  • Download the mods and patches listed below, links will link to the mod pages.
  • Install the mods. When installing updates to mods (or multi-part mods) and NMM asks if you would like upgrade to the new mod, select “no” and then select “yes to all” to have the update overwrite the original mod files, if there are any conflicting files.
  • Follow this mod install order. If asked to overwrite something, say “yes to all.”

  1. NVSE (Just extract it and place the files in the game directory)

  2. 4GBFNV-1-9 (Place in game directory if it pops up with an error)

  3. Project Ultimatum (This is the 9.7 update)

  4. Fallout Character Overhaul - v2.1 (Some options may cause crashing, it is suggested to only check eye and hair texture boxes, along with a teeth texture. Be sure that bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles=1 in FalloutPrefs.ini.)

  5. Interior Lighting Overhaul - Interior Lighting OVerhaul 6-7 (It is suggested to only check the A World of Pain box)

  6. ENB (These cannot be installed by NMM and must be done manually, there are instruction on the ENB’s pages. There are multiple ENBs we recommend, 1, 2, 3)

Note: Nexus Mod Manager integrates a load order program called BOSS and will automatically sort your Fallout NV mods. To launch Fallout NV, use the 4GB Enabler .exe file. The new .exe can be configured to be launched via NMM.

Troubleshooting Fallout NV Bugs, Crashes, & Fixes

Luckily, Fallout: New Vegas is fairly stable compared to Fallout 3, though it does still have problems. The major ones are covered here.

Freezing or crashing randomly - This is usually due to Fallout only being able to properly use two threads at most. Follow these steps:

  1. Open the folder My documents / My Games / FalloutNV

  2. Edit the file FALLOUT.ini.

  3. Inside FALLOUT.ini look for a group called [general].

  4. Inside the general group, after all the configuration parameters, change bUseThreadedAI=0 to 1 and after it add iNUMHWThreads=2

  5. Now save and close the .ini file and try playing.

Crashing at start of game -

  1. Run Fallout NV in different compatibility modes.

Or

  1. Try running without mods or DLC. If it crashes reinstall/verify game files via Steam, if not, continue.

  2. Disable all mods and run Fallout 3 with the DLC. If it still crashes, try enabling DLC one-by-one to see if one of them is causing the problem. If not, continue.

  3. If disabling mods fixed the crashing, enable half of the mods and see if the crashes persist.

  4. Keep halving the mods activated until you learn which mod is causing the problem.

  5. Reinstall that mod.

  6. If that does not solve the crashes, either ensure you have installed compatibility mods needed for that mod or uninstall the suspect mod completely.

Random Crashes - This can be due to a number of root causes. While I haven’t had any issues, it is possible others will experience instability. Try installing CASM or try these steps:

  1. Open the folder My documents / My Games / FalloutNV

  2. Open the file FALLOUT.ini to edit it.

  3. Use ctrl-F and search “bUseThreadedAI”.

  4. Change that line to say bUseThreadedAI=1 instead, and then add iNumHWThreads=2 on the line below it.

  5. Now save and close the .ini file and try playing.

(This limits the number of threads Fallout NV can use, since natively it will use too many threads and crash).

Or

Try the same steps as for crashing at start of game.

There are big red boxes with explanation marks - this is due to missing textures. Follow these steps to solve:

  1. Disable all mods and run Fallout 3 with the DLC, if there are still red boxes reinstall Fallout NV/verify game files via Steam.

  2. If disabling mods fixed the boxes. Enable half of the mods and see if the boxes persist.

  3. Keep halving the mods activated until you learn which mod is causing the problem.

  4. Reinstall that mod.

  5. If that does not solve the boxes issue, either ensure you have installed compatibility mods needed for that mod or uninstall the suspect mod.

There are borders around Fallout: New Vegas even though it is full screen - Alt-Tab or alt-enter. It will expand Fallout NV to fullscreen but not actually bring you to another window.

If you have any further issues, please put them in the comments and we will help you solve them.

Tips & Conclusion

Fallout 4 Weapon Retexture Mod

  • Press the ` key and type in “TCL” if you get stuck somewhere. That will disable collision and allow you to walk through anything. Type “TCL” again to enable collision.
  • For AMD GPUs, you can use RadeonPro to force HBAO, SSAA, SweetFX, and more by linking it to the 4GB launcher. NVidia users can use GeForce Experience and the nVidia Control Panel to do this.
  • If a type of AA, tessellation, or anisotropic filtering is being forced through either of the programs above, turn it off in game.
  • If using an ENB, do not force AA, tessellation, or anything through drivers or other software.

Weapon Retexture Project Fallout New Vegas

Our collection of mods is certainly not all-encompassing -- in fact, it’s far from it. We didn't want to have too many files in the install list unless needed, so some mods were cut out. If you know of any good mods we didn’t mention, feel free to post them in the comments below! This mod overhaul takes a somewhat old game and renovates it to be a good-looking, fun, and challenging new experience. The post-apocalyptic, desert wasteland in Fallout: New Vegas is an incredibly unique experience to play through, and with mods, it’s worth exploring all over again.
