As with ENB, I recommend using Vanilla Plus ReShade Preset instead OR use version 1.3.0 of NVR along with a preset like Viva New Vegas NVR Preset.Ĥk texture mods/texture mods with 2k normal maps: The game's engine is unable to handle textures that big without massive performance loss/stuttering and/or crashing. New Vegas Reloaded: Incredibly buggy and almost impossible to play with (flickering shadows, transparency issues, broken water LOD, performance loss). I recommend using a ReShade preset instead, such as Vanilla Plus ReShade Preset. They also use a lot of vision-obscuring effects like depth of field, lens flares, bloom, and chromatic aberration to obscure the broken Anti-aliasing, which makes hem very hard to play with. They have a ton of bugs and performance issues, such as broken Anti-aliasing, transparent objects, and glowing objects (though glowing objects can be mostly mitigated with ENB Glowing Objects Overhaul). Visual Mods to Avoid:ĮNB: As mentioned earlier with ENBoost, ENBs were never fully developed for New Vegas and have been abandoned by the author. Mission Mojave: Heavily outdated compared to Yukichigai Unofficial Patch, will break more than it fixes and cause crashing. Performance of the Gods (or pretty much all mods with 'Performance' in the title): Performance gain is usually placebo, disabling small clutter items with less than five polygons won't do anything.Īlso potentially dangerous if they mark the records as Deleted rather than Initially Disabled, as the game can crash if a script tries to reference a deleted object.

Save Cleaner: Works by going through your save file and deleting every REFR file, which will most likely break your save. Essentially the same function is performed safely by the. Zan AutoPurge Crash Protector/PCB Hotkey: The script command used by these mods is a leftover command from development that forcefully clears buffered cells from memory, which can lead to unforeseen consequences.

ENBoost also needs a lot of system-specific configuration to work properly and can degrade performance without proper tweaking.ĮNB in general for New Vegas has been more or less abandoned by its author in favor of Skyrim. There is no reason to use NVSR, even on Windows 7.ĮNBoost: New Vegas Tick Fix has much better memory management than ENBoost, and will increase performance/decrease stuttering more. These mods also have many great features that NVSR never had, like the high FPS physics fix. Will cause crashes every ~15 minutes.Įvery single feature from NVSR has been replaced in a modern manner by the combination of New Vegas Tick Fix, New Vegas Heap Replacer,Īnd lStewieAl's Tweaks. New Vegas Stutter Remover: Irreparably broken by Windows 10 due to relying on undefined behavior.
