📋 About This Mod

The list is up to date with the latest version of TTW (3. 4) It is incompatible with older versions.

Please don’t spam the comments with entire crash logs.

If you have questions or issues about the list please use the discord server for Begin Again: Aetherius Modding

DO NOT spam the TTW discord server with questions or issues related to Begin Again. The list is in no way affiliated with the TTW team. It is fine to ask questions related to the TTW installer itself on there though as I have had no hand in making it and my knowledge of it is limited.

For clarity:

TTW = The overhaul that puts FO3 into New Vegas (The installer you run to combine the two games that take a while) NOT WABBAJACK, made by the TTW team

Begin Again= This mod list FOR TTW. Installed via WABBAJACK, made by me (This list that you are currently looking at installing)

Think of TTW as the base game and Begin Again as the mod list.

This guide will take you through all steps to install both parts. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY!




Begin, Begin Again Tonight...

Welcome to the Nexus home page for my new Wabbajack mod list Begin Again!

This page will serve as an installation guide and central mod repository for all the unique mods specific to the list.

It is also a good place to learn what the list is about and if it is for you.

Begin Again is a mod list that focuses on bringing the gameplay feel of later Fallout titles into Fallout 3 and New vegas. Whilst being careful to preserve what made those games unique. Built on top of the fantastic Tale Of Two Wastelands this modlist serves to expand on what they have achieved by modernising certain aspects of the game that have not aged well and slightly rebalancing things where needed.

If you have never played Fallout 3 or even New Vegas before then this is designed to be the definitive experience for a player used to some of the features of more modern games.

Why the name? Well Begin Again is a song featured in the new vegas DLC "Dead Money". It has long been one of my favourite songs from the series and I feel the title is also a nod to the user about beginning the game again!

Begin Again Features:

[]Thanks to Root Builder all root mods are installed through MO2. Removing the need for the stock game folders as an added bonus![/]

[]Full complement of various fixes.[/]

[]Custom mods and patches exclusive to the list.[/]
