Enhanced Mojave Landscapes (DEPRECATED)

Deprecated, WIP version. Please use :https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/84284

This ambitious mod seeks to fill out the Mojave's more barren areas with details and level design I hope breathe some life into the at-times uncannily barren gameworld. Obsidian's brutal deadlines in all likelihood contributed to the barrenness of the gameworld, but with no timeline and over a year of off and on work I hope to have added enough to make the Mojave's most boring areas seem at least a little more interesting.

This mod is inspired by my time playing S. T. A. L. K. E. R Anomaly and the vibe of the classics. I was impressed with how detailed and lived in the Zone was in Anomaly and felt it contributed to it's heavy ambience and immersion, I just had to see if New Vegas could be helped in a similar way.

While not required, I HIGHLY recommend you use this in conjunction with the Wasteland Flora Overhaul - Vanilla tree replacer with LOD file under Wasteland Flora and Terrain Overhaul. This file does not include the vast sweeping changes of WFO, but better models for many plants I utilize in this mod.

As of now this mod includes but is not limited to:

1) Hundreds of hand-placed rocks, cliffs, and plants.

2) Dozens of bodies and skeletons in various states of decay to add to the Mojave's ambience and reputation as a post-apocalyptic wasteland. The vibe of the classics (especially the music) tended to remind the player at all times, at least subconsiously, that they were standing in the ashes of billions dead, I wanted to re-capture some of that bleakness with this addition.

3) Graffiti, including new and vanilla graffiti courtesy of the Frontier team, who gave permission for limited asset use in this project.

4) More trash in general, see used drugs littering the streets outside Freeside and New Vegas, these items have been nifskope mashuped to reduce object count. I hope to capture a more destitute and bleak Wasteland with this and the bodies above.

5) Tents and clutter to some areas of outer vegas.

6) More vehicle wrecks in general, with some being new assets in a vanilla-adjacent aesthetic.

7) A campground sign scheme consistent with that of Honest Hearts has been added to many campgrounds in the Mojave.

8) The Bitter Springs massacre site has been touched up with more graves (seriously are you telling me only 13 people died there?) and some added shell casings as remnants.

9) The no man's land between Forlorn Hope and Nelson has had bodies, crows, vultures, shells, and more added.

10) Inaccessible portions of the hills surrounding Hoover Dam have had sniper towers, artillery, and bunkers added for a more fortified appearance.

You will need textures from Bale's Micro Clutter in order for the nastier bodies to have the proper textures. If for some reason you object to installing the textures from Micr
