Essential improvements
Mod Hosts
- Fallout New Vegas Nexus - the most popular host for almost all Fallout New Vegas mods.
Mod Managers
- Nexus Mod Manager - a manager that allows you to download, install, update and manage your files through an easy to use interface. It integrates with the Nexus sites.
- Mod Organizer - a tool for managing mod collections. It is specifically designed for people who like to experiment with mods and thus need an easy and reliable way to install and uninstall them. It integrates with the Nexus sites.
- Fallout Mod Manager - a fork of the original FOMM, with updates and new features.
- The maximum amount of enabled plugins (.esp or .esm files) is 150. Having more than 149 plugins enabled may lead to crashes on startup, missing animations, textures and sounds.
