📋 About This Mod
©️ deanoman | ⚖️ Do not reupload to any other website, this mod is Nexus only
Alters the start up loading screens (legal, Bethesda logo, Obsidian logo) to be clean and simple. The originals in Fallout New Vegas are quite low resolution.
The main screen resolution this mod supports is 1920 x 1080.
There are optional downloads for the aspect ratios 16:10, 5:4 and 4:3 . Feel free to request other common screen sizes if you wish, in the comments section and I may make them.

This is the final version of this mod. I am no longer playing New Vegas and will not be continuing to update my files on the New Vegas Nexus anymore. All the best! :D
