📋 About This Mod
PLEASE NOTE:
- I highly recommend that you install the texture mods I list in the sections below. Vanilla textures will not look as the pictures represent and will also show more landscape/structure imperfections (many which are present in the vanilla game).
ABOUT:
- I have given Novac a facelift, adding more life to the developing trading town. This includes custom NPCs as well as a new questline. In developing Novac Reborn, I took a more defensive approach as the settlement lies further from the NCR outpost and closer to Legion territory.
- NOTE that the voice acting for the new questline is not yet available. Due to delays, I am releasing this mod without it so you all can enjoy the addition. Once the acting becomes available, I will offer an updated version with it included. Sadly, there is no ETA as of yet.
- ANY mods that alters the interiors of the motel will work with this mod as I made NO changes within these structures.
- This is an immersion mod, not intending to detract from the core lore of the game. I just found many of the stops early in the game were extremely bland and needed some visual attention.
- In designing this mod, I work around the most popular/imaginative mods so they easily snap together. Future changes/mods will reflect this.
- This mod is final unless any fixes become required.
- Novac Reborn is 100% safe for heavily modified games and will not/should not conflict. Also is fine for existing saved games. Enjoy!
- PLEASE endorse if you find this mod stable and a favorable change over vanilla Novac.
OTHER REBORN MODS:
- Goodsprings Reborn - A nice overlay that is made to work WITH popular mods that have some changes in GS. No need for load order bloating patches.
- Primm Reborn - An immersive trip into Primm, with enhanced challenge and more to experience.
THE BASICS:
- At first arrival, players will find Novac's defenses slightly more complete. Inside, you will find cleaner grounds and more active NPCs. Families have been added to the settlement, as well as local farmers and cropland; adding to the feel of a thriving community built on the ashes of a broken world.
- New Interiors, several private residences have been added with inhabitants.
- A new questline! Help a local mechanic recover a lost heirloom, earn

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple location overhaul, you can install it manually by dropping the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager like Vortex or FOMM is safer for easy uninstallation.
- Check if you have other mods that alter Novac — they might conflict, so load order matters. Put Novac Reborn after those mods to ensure its changes take priority.
- If you're using the game's mod manager, make sure the mod is activated before launching the game to see the changes.
