Looks like I'm going to have to check them out, thanks for breakin' the news to me. Although, there aren't really any grand-scale ones out I'd guess, like all those huge Oblivion ones. |

Oh there will be, just you wait.
I didn't mind the level speed. Perhaps they could raise the level cap and lower the speed as well. I mean, you get loads of xp for the story missions, perhaps that could be reduced so that you have to explore or do side quests in order to reach the cap.
Careful, this is open to abuse :P |

I use WinRAR myself. User was banned for: Poll: Round 4 - North: (1) Turbine vs (2) Valve. (Permanent) |

7-Zip. Although I'm not entirely sure it does .rar files. Can't Vista do them for you anyway? |

where's a trustworthy place to download it(i'm paranoid of viruses)? |
Press Junketeer Posts: 444 Joined: 23 Nov 2008 |
Yes, and I'm really hoping for a battle-remake...
Josef's texture mod is very impressive. If I were to pick a favourite, it would be the -UU- Uniques re-texturing mod. I tend to go for the more aesthetic mods. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1131 Joined: 16 Nov 2008  | I think ill be reinstalling fallout now and replaying with these mods. |
Press Junketeer Posts: 444 Joined: 23 Nov 2008 |
I suggest just using www.download.com. It is the most trustworthy site for downloading freeware/shareware. |

You uninstalled it that quickly? Wow. User was banned for: Poll: Round 4 - North: (1) Turbine vs (2) Valve. (Permanent) |

Yeah after beating it my HD was running low on space so i deleted all the games i have beaten and wasn't gonna replay for some time. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1600 Joined: 4 Jul 2008 | I'm new to downloading mods, and having no luck with it so far. Could anyone help me with this? I downloaded winRAR(trial) but I still can't open the file. |

That's the point of the mod, to put more emphasis on levelling through quests rather than combat. I'm sure if you did every side quest possible you'd reach the cap fairly quickly, but it wouldn't be nearly as quick if you just did the story missions. |

Download.com has viruses in their downloads. My brother downloaded WinRAR from there and got some weird little virus. 5 minutes of Google later and it turns out he's not the only one. Not only did they have an infected file, but they hadn't fixed it last time I checked either. On topic: I'm bookmarking this thread :P. I'll be back when there are some more mods posted. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3404 Joined: 28 Jun 2008 |
That's what I did. I'd managed to do almost every single side quest before I even got power armour training. I literally couldn't find anyone else to give me quests, so I went back to the story. Which I'm now powering through too easily. |

It's not perfect, but it adds a dimension of self righteousness |

No, it's just that there is of course no voice acting for the extra dialogues and there are a surprisingly large number of typos in the text itself. Also, it's best played on a harder difficulty, otherwise I think the 1000 caps awarded for each of the contracts could feel like too much of an award |

Me too. This thread made me sad. |
Copy Clerk  Posts: 71 Joined: 31 Dec 2008   | The mod I would recommend to everyone is the Repair mod that allows you to repair similar types of weapons. For example, You can use Assault rifles to repair Chinese assault rifles, 10mm pistols to repair the 10mm SMG, Rocket launders to repair the Fat man..etc. I can't get the name right now because I'm at work, but that mod felt like it fit in naturally with the game. Some people would prefer a mod to remove the weapon deteriation altogether, but I like it for some reason. >.> |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3316 Joined: 29 Jul 2008 | Is there a mod that allows you to have multiple followers but scales things for every follower beyond the first? Could weaken followers, strengthen enemies or both. I just want to feel like I am commanding an army. |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 603 Joined: 18 Nov 2008   |
Yes, several. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1521 Joined: 5 Jul 2008   | Just about any textures are better than the stuff Bethesda does. Are there some better textures for males too? |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2077 Joined: 1 Jan 2008   | One that I used to rekindle my interest in the game is something along the lines of "X's GodMod" or something like that. Basically, it makes you level up 5000 times as fast, and raises all your stats to 20. |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 631 Joined: 22 Dec 2007     | Killable Children mod, oh so good to finally destroy McReady and all his little bastard pals. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 4150 Joined: 6 Sep 2008   | Once I get a PC that doesn't run on Hampster power, i'll rebuy fallout 3 for the PC, install Oblivion alongside it, and mod the hell out of both. Maybe i'll rebuy Mass Effect for the PC as well for poops and giggles. |

for anyone who hasn't noticed, the majority of these fallout 3 mods are coming from fallout 3 Nexus, that's fallout3nexus.com They have a search form for quickly answering your "is there mod X" questions. They've been hosting mods since shortly after the game launched, but the creation kit was released at the start of december, so there will be more of them and better ones. |

It was a scary time when Fallout 3 came out, many worried the mod support would not come... but it is here! The GECK was released the other week and slowly the mods are appearing. I have been trying out some great mods that really make the game come alive.
Some mods i would recommend.
MMMF3 - Increased Spawns: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1415
This great mod increases the number of creature and NPC spawns encountered in the game, adding more life and challenge to the Wasteland making battles alot more epic.
Slower Levelling: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=97
This mod works well with the Increased Spawns mod, with this mod you need more XP to gain levels. So you level up much slower, giving the freedom to play slowly and not hit the level cap for a long time.
But discovery XP has been increased though to promote exploration.
Female Texture Mod: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=272
A texture mod that replaces adult female body and face textures which effects player characters and most NPCs in the game. It doesn't replace raider/scavenger or child textures. The mod makes the female faces prettier and more feminine looking in a subtle way, and works very well.
Hair Pack: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1146
I found that the default hair styles were pretty rubbish and few in number, but this fantastic little mod adds 24 new hair styles to the game.
My current character with example of modded hair.
Wasteland Mercenaries: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2030
This mods adds a NPC in Megaton that you can buy Mercenaries from, a great mod when also used with the Increased Spawns mod.
So for all Fallout 3 PC players, what mods are you trying now? Let everyone know the best ones out.
