📋 About This Mod
Each tribal in Honest Hearts (Dead Horse, Sorrow, White Legs) has its own unused African-American race.
What I did here is restore the African-American variants of each tribal race to the appropriately-named NPCs. The Sneering Imperialist
This bug fix restores the unused African-American race variants for each tribal group in Fallout: New Vegas's Honest Hearts DLC. It assigns the correct race to appropriately-named NPCs, fixing a visual inconsistency. A niche but useful fix for players who notice the missing diversity.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fixes a real oversight in the DLC—tribals were missing their intended racial variety
- Lightweight and focused, does exactly what it says without extra bloat
- Community-trusted with 294 endorsements and over 12k downloads
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2013—may have compatibility issues with newer mods or game patches
- Only affects Honest Hearts tribals, so it's a very narrow fix
For Fallout: New Vegas players who care about lore-friendly character diversity and want to see the tribals as originally intended. Also for modders who appreciate restoring cut or unused content. Skip if you don't notice or care about NPC race variations.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple ESP/ESM file, just drop it into your Data folder and enable it in your mod manager or launcher.
- Make sure Honest Hearts DLC is installed and activated, or the mod won't have anything to fix.
- Load order shouldn't matter much, but place it after other mods that alter tribal NPCs to avoid conflicts.
