📋 About This Mod
Features:
- Vanilla friendly level design
- Immersive & expanded areas of disrepair
- Improved visual consistency in affected areas
- Enhanced distant view across overpass sections
Overhauls the overpasses surrounding New Vegas and it's outskirts. In the vanilla game, overpasses are barren with no signs of pre-war traffic. Despite the state of disrepair we see these highways in, there is little visual storytelling to indicate continual decay. This mod will add in various vehicles across all highway overpasses, and implements collapsed highway sections where large gaps were present. Additionally, some areas directly underneath overpasses such as the underpass substation or muck pool arroyo have been reworked for visual improvement.
This mod should largely be compatible with anything, except for mods that also heavily edit the same areas, or the now removed buried building near Crimson Caravan. Please assess your load order before claiming bug reports in this regard.
Simply drag and drop the contents of the mod into your games "Data" folder, and activate with the mod manager of your choice. Alternatively, installdirectly through Mod Organizer 2. Optionally regenerate your LOD with whichever LOD utility you see fit. I recommend xLodGen
