uranium-fever's Introduction

The Uranium Fever Team presents:

Uranium Fever!

Uranium Fever is a massive, full-game overhaul and expansion of the worlds of Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout 3. Focused on a hardcore and compelling gameplay experience, this list represents a dramatic deviation from the vanilla experience. Every single mod and setting included in this list was carefully considered by a team of experts in various different New Vegas modding domains. Very few aspects of the game remain untouched. We consider this the most cohesive, balanced, and mechanically interconnected Tale of Two Wastelands (TTW) experience. Enjoy!

Important

  • Bullet Time - Utilized in Uranium Fever to completely supplant VATS, Bullet Time is a robust, AP based, time-scaling function with an emphasis on careful player aim and thoughtful decision making.
  • Armor Damage Overhaul - Replaces the nonsensical base game armor degradation system with a design that is highly customizable and markedly more intuitive.

  • Weapon Jamming Tweaks - Adjusts weapon jamming to foster a more hardcore experience. Fixes several jam related bugs, and adds a new jam clearing function.

  • Bad Touch - Adds consequences to exposure to environmental hazards, such as fire, electricity, cacti, broken glass, toxic sludge pools, poisonous gas, and radioactive goo.
  • BURN (Hardcore Fire Effects) - Causes unprotected humans and flammable creatures to panic and flee when set on fire, enhancing gameplay mechanics for fire and explosive based weaponry.
  • Forced Entry - Allows the player to bypass locks by attacking them. This makes the player choose between using different scarce resources, lockpicks or ammo and weapon condition.

  • Immersive Minigames - Real-time, character-skill based replacements for hacking and lockpicking, with an emphasis on resource management.
  • B42 Quickthrow - Adds a new, modernized weapon throwing mechanic, further promoting the use of throwables.
  • Stash Organizer - A customizable framework to configure automatic organization of stored items.
  • Purchase Items on Display - Allows purchase of items directly off of shelves in shops, rather than bartering directly with vendors. Most mods included in Uranium Fever have items specifically placed and balanced for use with this mod.

Comprehensive Overhauls

  • Functional Post Game Ending - Adds a fully functional post-game world to the game. You will no longer be brought to the credits after beating the game.
  • MoreMojave - Adds many new, intense, and carefully balanced locations at sparser areas of the Mojave Wasteland.
  • Uncut Wastelands - Restores a massive amount of scenery, items, and NPCs that were patched out of the game following release.

  • Sweet Pain - Adds many intense and unique locations throughout the game, all packed with lore and excitement.
  • Mojave Raiders - A complete overhaul and diversification of the many Raider factions of the Mojave Wasteland.
  • AGE (Anchorage Gameplay Expansion) - A complete overhaul of the Anchorage DLC including rebalancing, new gear, new weapons, new enemies, new encounters, and new boss fights. Heavily inspired by Call of Duty, Doom Eternal, and Half-Life, though with an emphasis on full-game cohesion and lore-friendliness.
  • DMT (Dead Money Tweaks) - A complete overhaul of the Dead Money DLC including rebalancing, new gear, new weapons, and new enemies. Intended to be a pseudo-RPG-survival horror experience inspired by Resident Evil, though with focus on full-game cohesion and lore-friendliness.
  • EDGE (Early Decisions and Gameplay Enhancement) - A large-scale overhaul of Tale of Two Wastelands. EDGE initially originated as a mod focused on rebalancing the early game, though has since been expanded to comprehensively rebalance nearly all aspects of both Wastelands, affecting many weapons, armors, locations, quests, encounters, creatures, companions, NPCs, loot, crafting, vendors, SPECIAL stats, perks, and karma.

Dialogue Overhauls

  • Brave New World - A near complete professional revoicing of voice lines throughout the Mojave Wasteland, including more than 7,000 lines of dialogue.

NPC & Enemy Overhauls

  • Mojave Wildlife - Adds hundreds of leveled, vanilla-friendly creature spawn points throughout the Mojave Wasteland.

Content

  • Autumn Leaves - A DLC-sized quest mod delving into a centuries-old library inhabited by sentient machines. Contains over 2,000 professionally voiced lines, 8 new quests, around 10 hours of gameplay, multiple different endings, and an original soundtrack.
  • Havasu Blues - A DLC-sized quest mod featuring an irradiated survival experience in the territory surrounding Lake Havasu City. Includes more than 60 professionally voiced characters, 28 new quests, around 10 hours of gameplay, and an entirely new world space.
  • 3DNPCs - Two expansive content mods, each focused on expanding its respective Wasteland. The first adds 15 quests, 8 companions, many background NPCs, and a radio station to the Capital Wasteland. The second adds 5 quests, 3 companions, and many background NPCs to the Mojave Wasteland.
  • Vegas Elysium Perk Pack - A perk and trait pack that introduces a new cabinet and flaw systems, inspired by the game Disco Elysium. These new systems typically take the form of the player having a conflicting thought that initially provides a debuff, though after meeting certain criteria (coming across specific items, encounters, or taking a certain action enough times), the player is able to internalize the “answer” to the thought, ultimately providing a substantial buff. The text prompts in this mod are typically very colorful, adding a great deal of depth and fun to the game.

Sound

  • ATMOS Ambience Overhaul - A massive modernization of the ambient soundscapes of both Wastelands.
  • Passive Combat Music Tweaked - Delays combat music until certain conditions have been met, preventing the player from being prematurely notified that they were spotted by enemies.

Animation & Visual

  • 3rd Person Camera Overhaul - Adds modernized camera features, such as shoulder swapping, smooth interactive camera movement, and fully fleshed out customizable camera positioning.
  • Armed to the Teeth Redux - Allows the player to holster 4 weapons on their body at once.
  • Titans of the New West 2.0 - A complete reimagining and retexturing of power armor to achieve a much more heavy and imposing aesthetic. Also including many new features, animations, and sound effects.
  • B42 Optics - Seamlessly adds dual-render scopes into the game.
  • B42 True Learning - Adds contextual lean when aiming out from corners.
  • Enhanced Movement - A complete movement overhaul and expansion, featuring bug fixes, diagonal movement, enhanced sprinting, enhanced sneaking, animated prone framework, and new animations.
  • Modern Stagger Animations - A complete replacement for stagger animations made via motion capture. Greatly enhances the flow of combat.
  • Simple Attack Reactions - Adds animations to NPCs in response to being injured. Greatly enhances the flow of combat.
  • Ragdolls & Death Throes - Dramatically improves ragdoll behavior to create more realistic pain and death animations.
  • New Vegas Reloaded & Salamand3r's Helios Preset - A custom graphical extender that injects various new effects into the game. Helios utilizes this framework to make uniquely customized and independent world space visuals. This is, arguably, the most beautiful expression of the DC and Mojave Wastelands.
  • Desert Natural Weathers - A complete overhaul of the weathers of both Wastelands with 360 panoramic cloud textures, improved lighting, and enhanced variation in rain, overcast, clear, snowy, and foggy weathers.

Installing Tale of Two Wastelands

Important

This mod is REQUIRED for Uranium Fever to function properly.

You MUST use the TTW Installer. A prior TTW installation CANNOT cannot be moved into the Uranium Fever TTW mod folder. This is because the TTW installation process performs BSA decompression of base game files, which needs to be run on the copy of Fallout: New Vegas provided by Uranium Fever.

  • Download the 3.3.2a Tale of Two Wastelands Installer and extract the contents of the archive.
  • Copy C\Modding\Uranium Fever\mods\[NoDelete] Tale of Two Wastelands.

Disable Base Address Randomization

Tip

This step can prevent unforeseen crashes.

  • Open Windows Security from the Start Menu.
  • Open App & Browser Control in the left sidebar.
  • Open Exploit Protection Settings under Exploit Protection.
  • Set Force Randomization for Images (Mandatory ASLR) to Use Default (Off).

Creating Exclusions

Tip

This process prevents windows from blocking MO2 and associated mod files from loading.

  • Open Windows Security.
  • Open Virus & Threat Protection.
  • Click Manage Settings under Virus & Threat Protection Settings.
  • Scroll down and select Add or Remove Exclusions under Exclusions.
  • Select the Uranium Fever Installation location.
  • Add another exclusion for the Wabbajack Installation location.
  • This process will also need to be done for any third-party antivirus.

Disabling Steam Overlay

Tip

This process disables Steam Overlay, which has been known to cause crashes and worsen performance.

  • Navigate to your steam folder (the same folder where your steam.exe is).
  • Right click GameOverlayRenderer.dll and open properties.
  • Open the security tab and click edit.
  • Click the Deny option under Read & Execute for every user.
  • Click Apply, then Yes.
  • In the same folder, right click SteamOverlayVulkanLayer.dll and open properties.
  • Open the security tab and click edit.
  • Click the Deny option under Read & Execute for every user.
  • Click Apply, then Yes.

DXVK

Tip

DXVK can yield a significant performance boost, though can also cause visual artifacting and increased memory use. If crashing frequently, REMOVE d3d9.dll and dxvk.conf from the Uranium Fever Stock Game > New Vegas folder. AMD users who REMOVE DXVK will need to downgrade their graphics card drivers to version 23.12.1. This can be accomplished by using the AMD Cleanup Utility and google searching previous YOUR CARD MODEL drivers.

  • MOST users will not have to follow these instructions. The most updated version of DXVK has already been pre-installed by default in Uranium Fever. Those with older graphics cards (no vulkan, or Intel iGPU) should follow these instructions if unable to launch the game:
    • Intel iGPU users:
      • Navigate to the Uranium Fever Installation Location > DXVK.
      • Move the DXVK 1.10.1 folder into the game's Root folder, which can be found in the Uranium Fever Installation Location > Stock Game > Fallout New Vegas (C\Modding\Uranium Fever\Stock Game\Fallout New Vegas if you used the recommended filepaths).
    • Vulkan-less GPU users:
      • If you are not sure that this applies to you, ignore this section.
      • Move the contents inside of the DXVK 1.10.3 folder into the game's Root folder, which can be found in the Uranium Fever Installation Location > Stock Game > Fallout New Vegas (C\Modding\Uranium Fever\Stock Game\Fallout New Vegas if you used the recommended filepaths).

RivaTuner Statistics Server (RTSS)

Tip

RTSS is an FPS limiter that can make the game feel much smoother. The theory behind this is that running at a stable and unchanging 70 FPS is less jarring to the user than fluctuating between 60 to 100 FPS rapidly. This also prevents the timescale desync that can occur if you surpass your monitors refresh rate.

  • Install and launch RTSS.
  • Open the System Tray (the triangle pointing upwards on the taskbar) and click the RTSS icon (an image of a computer screen) to open it.
  • Press the green Add button and select FalloutNV.exe.
  • Set Application Detection Level to Low.
  • Set Framerate Limit to 59.95.
    • Uranium Fever is a graphically intense Wabbajack list. Some users may be able to set higher Framerate Limits, though ensure your Framerate Limit is > 0.05 LOWER than your monitors refresh rate.
  • Enter settings using the Setup button.
  • Enable Passive Waiting.
  • Set Framerate Limiter to Front Edge Sync.

Performance Profile

Tip

This is an OPTIONAL step for those with weaker computers. If you do not get poor performance in game, please DO NOT follow this step.

Use the Performance Profile for better performance in exchange for worse visuals. This profile disables Real Time Reflections New Vegas Reloaded, and associated mods.

  • In MO2, select Uranium Fever from the large dropdown list in the top middle, then click the Uranium Fever Performance Profile.

Launching The Game

  • The game CANNOT be launched outside of MO2. Launching from Steam or GOG WILL fail.
  • In MO2, select Uranium Fever from the dropdown list in the top right, then click run.

Cleaning Up

Tip

This is an OPTIONAL step to remove unneeded files from your computer. This will make the updating or reinstalling process take longer, as these files will need to be re-downloaded.

  • Confirm that the game launches and runs appropriately before following this step.
  • Navigate to C\Modding\Uranium Fever\downloads.
  • Delete the downloads folder.

Updating Uranium Fever

  • Reinstall the list from the Wabbajack tool and enable the Overwrite Installation checkbox.

FAQ

  • Crashing - I am crashing, what can I do to fix it?
    • Post your crashlog (found in the Uranium Fever > Stock Game > Crash Logs folder) in the Uranium Fever Support channel on discord (link provided above).
  • Failed and Slow Nexus Downloads - Why are all of my downloads so slow, and eventually failing?
    • You failed to connect your nexus account to your wabbajack. Open the settings cogwheel in Wabbajack and log into your Nexus account.
  • First Time Playing - Is the list appropriate for a person who has never played Fallout before?
    • Yes. This list is appropriate for anyone who wants a robust, hardcore gaming experience.
  • Keybinds - How do I find Uranium Fever's Keybinds?
    • Press K in the pause menu.
  • Manual Installs - Why do I have to manually install TTW, NVR, and Stash Organizer?
    • Modpub does not allow automated wabbajack downloading. We apologize for this inconvenience..
  • Manual Installs - Why do I have to click to install Vanilla UI + and Vanilla UI Extension?
    • The auto download feature on the moddb website is extremely unreliable, requiring this step to be manual.
  • Other Modded Instances - Can I keep my own modded setup if I play Uranium Fever?
    • Yes. Uranium Fever is entirely self contained through the use of a Stock Game folder. As long as you have the appropriate Fallout installations (Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas, and all DLCs) the installation will still work and will not interfere with your other modded setup.
  • Ragdolls - Doesn't Ragdolls cause crashes?
    • No. The original version of ragdolls did cause crashes. The replacement plugin available in Death Throes is NOT prone to crashes.
  • Size - Why is the installation requirement so large?
    • When Wabbajack compiles and installs a list, it requires simultaneously drive presence of the initial download, the unedited file, and the file after it has been altered (in our case, most large texture packs have been appropriately compressed, optimized, and BSA packed). Many of these files are automatically removed following installation, though if desired, around 50gb of download files can also be deleted. Deleting these download files will make updating more arduous, however.
  • Start Location - Can I start in the Mojave Wasteland?
    • Yes. To start in the Mojave Wasteland, select "memory" when prompted "Is this now, or just a memory?" immediately after leaving the vault.
  • Stock Game - What is the Stock Game Folder and why do I need it?
    • It is an installation of Fallout New Vegas that has already had several root mods installed. It also has the benefit of not altering the main Fallout New Vegas installation. Uranium Fever is entirely self contained in this respect.
  • TTW Installation - Can I just move my TTW installation from a prior modlist into the TTW mod folder?
    • No. The TTW Installer edits Fallout New Vegas files in the Stock Game folder, this intentional to allow Uranium Fever to be entirely self contained.
  • Vortex - Can I install Uranium Fever with vortex?
    • No. Wabbajack is inherently incompatible with vortex.
