Introduction

Overview

Viva New Vegas is a modding guide for Fallout: New Vegas that will carefully walk you through how to install all the mods you will need for a perfectly stable, smooth and enjoyable experience.

This 'Mirelurked' version of the guide modifies the pre-installation section specifically for computers certified 'Powered by SteamOS' or in beta like the Steam Deck, ASUS ROG Ally or Lenovo Legion Go S.

The guide is highly accessible for everyone, no matter your modding experience. It is still incredibly important that you read all the instructions very carefully, even if you believe you are experienced enough to skip them. There are many small instructions that are vital for your game to function, and could be easily missed if you aren't careful. Although you don't need any modding experience to use this guide, it is expected for you to be relatively experienced with operating a computer in general.

Requirements

  • An English copy of the Ultimate Edtion of the game from either Steam or GOG
    • Only the English version of the game is supported for maximum compatibility - translations can conflict with mods and cause issues.
    • You may use a non-Ultimate Edition English copy of the game as long as you own all the DLC, including the pre-order bonuses.
    • The Polish-Czech-Russian (PCR) version of Fallout: New Vegas is fully supported as long as the game itself is in English.
    • The German release uses a "No Gore" version, making it incompatible with xNVSE. Only Steam copies of this release are supported, as long as you use DepotDownloader to download the international EXE.
    • The Microsoft Store versions are not compatible with xNVSE, and thus not supported.
  • At least 19 GB of free drive space.
  • SteamOS 3.7.8 or newer.
  • A method of connecting your device to a keyboard, mouse. Either a dock or a software KVM like Barrier will work
  • A sudo password set on your device.
  • A Nexus Mods account (a Premium subscription will allow uncapped speeds).
