📋 About This Mod

This is a simple modification made to the music files for Fallout 3. This modification replaces all of the original F3 music files (Which are the background music) with the Classic Fallout Music (Background Music). There is 3 music files from F1 & F2 that was added to the download and one of the music files are used for the Main Title music. >>>> The Original F3 music folder has to be deleted before you place the new music folder in the DATA folder. The original music folder can be located in the DATA folder and this is where you are going to put the Modified music folder once you\'ve deleted the original music folder.. HERE: >>>> C:/Program Files\\Bethesda Softworks\\Fallout 3\\Data <<<< This isn\'t much of a mod, but it\'ll give you the feeling of Fallout 1 & 2 while playing this Epic Fallout game from Bethesda Softworks. This is the first mod I have ever uploaded to this Nexus site I\'ve made some changes to this mod, but I\'m in the process of constructing a new mod to add a couple of new locations to the D. C Wasteland, plus with new factions, weapons, armor, and many more things to come. Enjoy the Classics
