Volume 1 of Lime's Player Housing Overhauls
Welcome Courier. Whichever flag you fly, I'm sure you will find value in my latest and most ambitious mod to date. This plugin completely redesigns, clutters and improves both atmosphere alongside the base functionality of the Faction safehouses in Fallout: New Vegas.
When I first played New Vegas all those years ago, I really loved the idea of faction specific housing. I looked forward to earning the key to these small mysterious little bunkers to see what they held within. Once I discovered the exterior of the NCR safehouse - it sat there teasing me my entire playthrough.
To my disappointment after gaining all the keys over multiple playthroughs, I was met with disappointment again and again in the form of barebones, messy looking shacks with no real atmospheric storytelling or functionality. None of the safehouses really evoke the faction they claim to be an extension of. No interesting decor, No thought in the placement of faction gear (It usually ends up spread across the beds) and not even places to craft in some cases. Why are they all so dirty? who would live here? these places are all literally all have housekeepers, so why are beds at 45 degrees to each-other & the floors covered in grime and burned books?
This mod also (Optionally) removes the annoying caretakers and projects their perks onto commissaries and other interactive objects in the safe-houses. Each safehouse retains it's unique offering of bi-weekly items and all now have repair functions. The brotherhood has also received an additional perk in the form of a crafting material dispenser via the commissaries (This is to ensure all safehouses have a unique set of times available and repair functions).
Sadly what could have been a fantastic aspect for roleplaying and player immersion lies in a sorry state. These faction safe-houses are semi-late game rewards requiring considerable progress with each faction's reputation to obtain, so why do they feel so barren and thoughtless?
With this mod I set out to make these safehouses truly shine. I have painstakingly reworked each of the four faction safehouses to really feel like they were built and maintained by their respective faction. Each has been totally re-cluttered, the default loot has been shuffled around and improved. I've added small, unobtrusive pieces of lore to ground these safehouses in a playthrough even more, further integrating them with the Mojave.
The following video should give you a good idea of the atmosphere / functionality this mod will provide you. It will exhibit each of the four main faction safe-houses and highlight their improved and more faction aligned aesthetics.
Lime's Faction Safehouse Overhaul completely redecorates and redesigns the NCR, Brotherhood, Legion, and Followers safehouses, making them more atmospheric and true to their factions. Each safehouse's perks have been reworked, offering a fresh experience for players who use these bases. With over 1,200 endorsements and 124k downloads, it's a popular overhaul for Fallout: New Vegas.
