Vault-HQ1 NV - House On The Hill adds a vault player home in Goodsprings for Fallout: New Vegas. With over 5,000 endorsements and 119,000 downloads, it's a popular choice for players seeking a convenient, lore-friendly base near the starting area.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 5,377 endorsements and nearly 120k downloads—clearly a lot of players trust it.
- Location in Goodsprings means you get a home right from the start, no need to trek across the Mojave.
- Vault theme fits the game's aesthetic and gives you that underground bunker feel.
⚠️ Cons
- Description is bare-bones—no details on interior layout, storage, or crafting stations, so you're going in blind.
- No mention of compatibility with other mods that alter Goodsprings, so you might run into conflicts.
- Last updated in December 2025, but no patch notes—could be a simple update or just a bump.
For New Vegas players who want a practical, lore-friendly home right in Goodsprings without fast-traveling across the map. If you're a collector of player homes or just need a safe stash early on, this fits. Skip if you need fancy features like displays or auto-sorting—this is a straightforward vault home.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple mod, just drop the files into your Data folder and activate it in your mod manager or launcher.
- If you use other mods that change Goodsprings, check load order—place this after those to avoid conflicts.
- Visit the location in-game to see if it suits your needs; you can always uninstall if it's not your style.
