📋 About This Mod
To keep it simple and short this is the 2017 edition of Nevada ENB (originally released in 2014) 3 Years later I've decided to revisit Nevada and give it the, in my opinion, definitive touch ups to make it close to perfect - or rather closer to my original vision back in 2014.
Not much has changed about the ENB other than minute details in the shaders and conifg. Performance is basically the same as Nevada ENB 2014.
If you enjoyed Nevada ENB I hope you give this version a try and enjoy the game with it as much as I enjoyed making it!

---------------------Installation Instructions
Go to enbdev fallout nv and download the file.
If you don't use the 4GB extender
Extract to your NV folder Download the file from the nexus Extract on your NV folder and overwrite when asked
If you use the 4GB extender
Extract the files into the exes folder Download the file from the nexus Extract on your exes folder and overwrite when asked
Go to RWL Nexus page and download the latest version. Follow install instructions and make sure to use the "FNV Realistic Wasteland Lighting - ENB Full.esp" file
In the game launcher enable HDR and disable Antialiasing and Anisotropic Filtering and Water Displacement. To avoid transparency and flickering issues disable the steam overlay or any other overlay like teamspeak, plays tv, etc. It should work as intended, when you launch the game you'll see a white info text on the top left corner of the screen displaying the ENB version.
When in-game make sure to set the brightness in the options menu to the lowest setting
- ----------------------
In-game editing
- To bring up the ENB menu in-game press Shift+Enter
This will show the ENB menu on the top left corner of your screen, you can use it to disable or enable features from the ENB. DoF is enabled by default, if you want to have better performance or find the blur during gameplay annoying disable Depth of Field in the ENB menu. You can also enable Adaptation, which will make dark environments brighter and easier to navigate.
Shift+F12 will disable ENB with the press of a key combination, so you can play the game without it or compare the vanilla looks to the ENB looks.
- --------------------
Recommendations
I recommend messing with the brightness setting in the ENB menu to tailor the ENB to your monitor, not all monitors are configured the same and for some people the ENB might be too bright or too dark. For those

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 2,566 endorsements and 84,911 downloads
- Specifically tuned for RWL, so you get a cohesive look without tweaking
- Works with TTW, so you can use it across both Fallout 3 and New Vegas
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019 — may not be fully compatible with the latest game patches or ENB versions
- Requires Realistic Wasteland Lighting as a dependency, so you can't use it with other lighting mods
For Fallout: New Vegas players who use Realistic Wasteland Lighting and want a polished, atmospheric ENB preset. Also great for TTW players who want consistent visuals across both games. Skip if you don't use RWL or prefer a different lighting overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the latest ENB Series binary installed before adding this preset, as the preset files alone won't work.
- If you're using TTW, install this after both games are set up and load order is stable.
- Check the ENB local.ini for performance settings — you can tweak quality to match your rig.
