- Enhanced Vision support for Project Nevada -- Highly recommended!!
- Dramatic Lighting, very heavy shadows in certain places -- this is why I recommend Project Nevada - NIGHT VISION MAY BE NECESSARY AT TIMES
NOTE: THIS IS NOT REALISTIC. I use this preset because I love the look and feel of the wasteland, the challenge of requiring night vision, and simply the eye candy of the screenshots with deep shadows.

** NOTE: If you use the 4GB patch, you need to place the d3d9.dll in the exes folder.
--- This is located at C:>>Program Files (x86)>>Steam>>SteamApps>>common>>Fallout New Vegas>>exes
3. Download my files and place it in the same location

Based on Onix ENB 2.00 by xCamoLegend, posted with permission
Designed for use with Project Nevada Night Vision
Last updated in October 2014, indicating a long-standing preset
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 355 endorsements and over 8.5k downloads
- Two presets in one download give you options without extra downloads
- Built on a proven base (Onix ENB) and tailored for a specific gameplay mod, so it's a thoughtful combo
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014 — may not be fully compatible with current game patches or newer ENB versions
- Requires Project Nevada Night Vision to get the intended effect, so it's not a standalone visual overhaul
🎯 Is This For You?
For Fallout: New Vegas players who want a darker, more cinematic look and already use Project Nevada. If you're into gritty atmospheres and don't mind tweaking ENB settings, this is worth a shot. Skip if you prefer a vanilla-friendly or performance-light preset.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have ENB Series installed and know how to toggle it in-game (Shift+Enter) to adjust settings live.
- Since it's designed for Project Nevada Night Vision, enable that mod's night vision and test in dark areas to see the full effect.
- Back up your current ENB files before overwriting, so you can revert if you don't like the look.
