✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 785 endorsements and over 255k downloads.
- Covers 18 major mods in one package, saving you from installing separate idle patches.
- ESPless design avoids hitting the plugin limit and won't overwrite your other Idle Variety ini files.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires the original Idle Variety mod and each target mod installed; without them, the patches do nothing.
- If any of the 18 patched mods update and change NPC records, these patches may become outdated and cause conflicts until updated.
- Only covers the specific list of mods; if you use other NPC mods not listed, you'll need separate patches or they won't have idle variety.
For Fallout New Vegas players who run any of the 18 listed mods and want their NPCs to have varied idle animations. For mod collectors who prefer a single ESPless patch collection instead of hunting down individual patches. Skip if you don't use these mods or don't care about NPC idle behavior.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Load this mod after the original Idle Variety and after the mods it patches to ensure the ini changes apply correctly.
- If you use other Idle Variety patches, check their ini files are separate and properly named to avoid conflicts.
- Use a mod manager like Mod Organizer 2 to easily enable or disable specific patches for mods you have installed.
