If bugs are found, please report them to me and follow this mod for later updates. (2025 edit; I haven't worked on this mod for years, but it still works. Don't expect future development)
To install, either put the file in you're Fallout New Vegas data folder or install with nexus (which I recommend because it's much easier). Also have the newest version of nexus.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,102 endorsements and nearly 19k downloads—clearly a lot of players appreciate it.
- Solves a real annoyance: no more detouring through the north gate every time you want to hit the Strip.
- Zero bloat—it's a focused QoL tweak that does exactly what it says.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015—might have compatibility issues with newer mod setups or game patches, so test carefully.
- Only affects fast travel to the Strip/New Vegas—if you were hoping for broader fast travel changes, this isn't it.
For Fallout: New Vegas players who fast travel frequently and hate the extra loading screen at the north gate. If you're a completionist or just want a smoother travel experience, this is a no-brainer. Skip it if you're looking for major gameplay overhauls—this is purely a convenience tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is from 2015, make sure to check if you're using any mods that alter fast travel or the Strip area—they might conflict.
- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager or Mod Organizer 2, you can install it through there for easier management.
- Test fast travel to the Strip right after installing to confirm it works with your current load order.
