Less Horrendous Vikki and Vance Casino LOD
So I was sifting through some old files and found this mod I made a while back on my laptop and decided to share. It's a very simple mod which replaces the horrible low poly model of the Vikki and Vance casino with a better one made by reducing the poly count of the original model. Also gives it a better texture which doesn't look like smudged crap.
Doesn't affect performance by much or so in my testing. The model is half of the size of the original model coming in at 500kb and the texture is 256x256 coming in at 33kb. No esp file. Only mesh and texture. I'll try to further reduce the model but due to lack of free time on my end no promises.
Surprised no one made a mod to fix this glaring and ugly issue sooner.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved fix with 2,213 endorsements and 87k downloads
- Directly addresses an ugly visual flaw that stands out in the Mojave
- Lightweight and focused—doesn't touch anything else
⚠️ Cons
- Only improves the LOD, not the full-quality model—you'll still see the ugly version up close
- Last updated in 2020—may not be tested with the latest game patches or mods
- No screenshots or detailed install instructions in the description
For Fallout: New Vegas players who notice the ugly distant casino and want a quick visual fix without overhauling the whole game. Skip if you're fine with the default LOD or want a complete casino overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Just drop the files into your Data folder and enable the mod in your mod manager—no FNVEdit needed.
- If you use a large LOD overhaul mod, load this one after it to ensure the casino fix takes priority.
- This only affects the distant LOD, so you won't see changes until you're far away from the casino.
