3:16 since Fallout TTW is Fallout NV, it naturally has it’s orange tint and not FO3’s green tint. I think removing it gives a clearer look and compromise that doesn’t favour the atmosphere of either game over the other.
@@NBGroovy I was just wondering the same thing. Hopefully someone can answer this soon haha, as I really like the original green tint, and would want to experience FO3 in this mod with it's original atmosphere.
@@renpenzlington3741 I found 2 ways to fix it : 1) Easiest + Safest way : just use a reshade on the game, Nvidia overlay does a great job to get a natural green tint like Vanilla 2) Difficult + Dangerous way : What I did was disable the Desert Natural Weather, Properly illuminated strip courtyards and the begin again conflict resolution patch Disclaimer : removing the begin again conflict resolution patch may cause many issues so I strongly advise to use a reshade, it's far more simple and safe !
Your channel has really helped me pick modpacks for other games! I am hoping you do one of these on Nostalgia NV, I'd love your opinions before I commit to it. Thanks for the great videos!
nice, the 16 yr old really had me, was born in the same year as Oblivion and gonna be heading to college this year(if I can get into medical school i.e) but that era of Bethesda modding has just always fascinated me so much, I wanna finish it someday fs, but yea nice review man, would love to see more reviews on more ttw modlists, love your videos man, been watching for a long time(since 2 yrs now I think) but don't comment much if at all, and just wanna say keep up the good work:)
Thank you, glad you're enjoying the videos! And yeah its crazy to think how old these games are despite their popular modding communities, I really should check out an Oblivion list at some point
@vivileon honestly just give the list a try first, update the lighting mod as it was outdated for me. I personally like using the bleachers story mod, make sure to grab the 2nd chapter. Otherwise standalone weapon and armor mods are generally safe to install. Reshade is the most performance friendly if you get a light preset. I also like weapon inertia, and a modern Ui preset for FallUi along with some new combat and idle animations
Love this list, only managed to beat fo3 before I burnt out though. I blame the level 30 refresh between games for this, since I didn't feel like I was doing myself a favor leaving the East coast early. This (personally) ended up forcing me to meander around looking for things to do that I wasn't necessarily engaged with, in order to squeeze the levels out.
classic issue with TOTW, you never make it to the end of both 😂. I would honestly need an entire endgame rework+scaling in order to make it interesting enough to reach end of both games + their dlcs (so new level locked weapons, a ton new endgame perks, crazy new enemies/bosses, etc)
I was wishing for all of this last week when I could bother trying to make Fallout 3 to work, couldn't. New Vegas is fine, but I wanna start from 3, thank you sooooooo much
Well done Love the video! I was looking to see what else this mods adds while I install it, never played ttw before but super excited for it! Great voice btw enjoyable hearing you go over the details and good script! I could see you doing great in the future of your youtube career!
This was always my point. Graphics and Visual mods that upgrade the game but always keep that original feeling. That feeling is one of the reasons we love these games.
Is this mod pack intended to be so punishing in combat? Even with the seemingly decent Talon Company armor I take an insane amount of damage from even just a .22, which for me would only do 9 damage
Doing my fallout 4 modded survival play through and I’m definitely gonna keep this video in mind when I play through these games! I didn’t play much of fallout 3 or new Vegas just a couple of hours in each. Thanks for this breakdown!
Due to a bug that, so far as I know, was never fixed, the gaming computer I had at the time I tried to play Fallout 3 would crash upon leaving Vault 101 every time. I was never able to get that computer to play the game. Eventually I gave up and now, over a decade later, I was just deciding to give it a try again. I also wanted the game to look and feel just like it was supposed to, but better. Fewer crashes, smoother gameplay, higher quality textures that matched the originals, etc. Things like that. This is *exactly* what I wanted. I want a mod that looks and feels authentic to the original. When Morrowind modding was big I made my own list of "mods you want if you want the game to be exactly like Morrowind but better". That is what I wanted with Fallout 3. This is about as close to perfect for my tastes as I could hope. Thank you!
Nice rewiev thank you so much im having so much fun with this modpack right now! I could not get Fallout 3 to work at Steam but this is the perfect resoltion.
I've played a couple revisions of Begin Again quite a bit and think it's my favorite modlist overall. I think SpringHeelJon has a modding ethos that matches what I want out of these games really well. My ONLY complaint is I wish that the list allowed for just starting in New Vegas and skipping FO3 entirely. I like FO3, but sometimes I want to play just New Vegas with all of these improvements. I think you can just sprint through and go to the train station with ~TGM on but that feels so hacky considering how integrated the rest of the mods feel in the list. A nitpick, for sure, but it's *my* nitpick.
Agreed, I think Jon has shown a lot of restraint so it doesnt feel too cluttered with mods. And yeah it is a shame; as i've not played 3 in ages the lack of starting choices didn't bother me, but I can imagine it'll turn a good amount people away from this great experience
It's a terrific modlist. The only drawback was that I had to lower the timescale because the rate of time progression is just WAY too quick imo. This means that hardcore needs are now insanely demanding, you almost constantly need to eat and drink lol. You mention this can be tweaked in the "mods ini file" but it isn't clear at all where this ini file is located and I've found next to zero info on it. Even Discord has harldy any info and posing the question on there has brought no feedback.
Anybody know how to fix stuttering issues with this pack? Happens after paying for a few hours or so and usually when looking past buildings and rubble
Any plans on following Salamand3r's TTW guide and new NVR preset? I can tell you from experience that it's an involved process, but the results are gorgeous and I think some unfamiliar with it would appreciate.
i dont know if anyone else seems to have the same problem ik the jsawyer mod lowers HP and alters weapon stats and armour but even with high endurance both ranks of toughness and talon company armour your health still gets melted is this intentional or am i doing something wrong ?
I have a 2080 TI and DXVK seems to be causing the list to crash on startup. It works when I turn it off, and It's randomly started twice with it on. Don't fully understand the DXVK instruction and the Discord links don't work. Can anyone here lend me a hand?
Yup. I found an install guide, followed it and it worked without a hitch. I had a crazy remaster setup complete with ENB and such but after 3 years of not touching it, it broke. This isn't as pretty but feels just as good
ive tried it all day today and i cant get it to work at some point my mod download gets stuck and i cant progress ive tried all fixes that are online and none of them work for me it always gets stuck at the same point so i had to give up i realy wish i could play this but sadly i cant.
@@diegogodet1889Had the same issue. Close the program, open again and just hit the play button. It will resume from where it stopped. If it doesn't work just look which mod is stuck in the bottom left and download it manually in Nexus. Place the file where you set your downloads, close and open the program again hit that play button and it should work.
@@diegogodet1889I wish u luck I got it running and it has been smooth sailing since had to rebuy FO3 GoTY for $20 on steam cause I had old GFWL version and got nexus $5 sub to make install easier but it was worth it
12 hours of game time 2 ctd so far so not bad my save file pictures look purple and distorted but it doesn’t seem to effect anything in game so just hoping it’s a minor issue and not super corrupting my save files lol
@@reportmelolz The reason for the purple save files is you're not using the HDR DXVK version. It's in the optional mods section, read the description of it
There's one problem I have; I can't "wait" unless I'm sitting or sleeping, even though it's mapped. Using that button (back on controller) just puts me in third-person. Already tried remapping and nothing works
two questions 1:Does this mod pack automatically come with Tale of Two Wastelands or should I download that myself? 2: Does this mod pack come with a way to have all the companions follow you at once or do you know a good mod that works with TTW that does so?
@@Razilator Yeah, had to make sure to have the normal Fallout 3 not the GOTY version as the GOTY one wasn't compatible with TTW. Also had to install TTW separately to the mo2 from the modpack.
Happy to bring your attention to it! And yeah i keep seeing so many great mods release but I can never be bothered to install them, I've been spoilt by the simplicity of FO4
When I first played FO3 on my Xbox 360 I was completely new to that type of game so I confused why I never had enough ammo and kept making novice mistakes, so it feels good to return and actually embrace and appreciate it way more
Great review only thing I'd suggest is for Nvidia owners use the new RTX HDR over Special K. I've done some personal testing and can say Nvidia's looks better than SK and is one / two clicks to get it working. I've been looking around for a new Mod List. I might go with Capital Punishment, or this one.
played ToTW many years back and... oh they "nerfed" the thing so it resets the character back to level 1 after taking the train! ...and y'know what, that's actually pretty alright, at least it'll make the 2nd half not feel like cruising on easy mode
I have loved this modlist thus far, tho I am 2 updates back hehe. Best modded F3 I had ever experienced only 3 crashes instead of 999999 of them hahaha
This rocks! I’ll need to try this out. Have you tried the Eldryn mod pack for Skyrim? Saw that looked like a Septimus successor and wanted to know your thoughts. Watched much of your playthrough and never had a chance to try Sep out for myself
The confusing part is if you follow the Official TTW guide, they dont mention wabbajack at ALL. They mention installing a whole ton of fixes after installing TTW. Thats confusing because their guide is considered the official guide.
Can anyone help me? I followed the instructions on the Begin Again Nexus page to a tee (fresh install of FO3/NV, a second Steam library, launch the game once then exit, etc). But when I get to the step to actually install using Wabbajack, I just get "download failed" repeatedly on the left side, then shortly after I get a red "Installation failed" in red on the right side. Is there a visual walkthrough of how to do this because I know I didn't miss any steps and I'm not really sure what more I can do?
I had the same issue. What fixed it for me was pressing the settings icon in Wabbajack, and then pressing the button to logout of my nexus account and then logging it back in. No idea why, but it works. I set this up yesterday and got sucked in for 8 hours. Hope this helps you and you get to play, because it rules.
@@SpaceJamOnBluRay UPDATE - IT WORKED! I never would've thought to sign out and sign back in. What a strange bug. Manually clicking "Download" on every mod is painful but I don't want to pay for Nexus haha. Cheers!
@@IIMIKEYMOII Awesome, I'm glad it worked for you. I made it about 29 mods in before I said screw it and bought a nexus premium account hahaha. How long did it take to manually click through all of them?
@@SpaceJamOnBluRay Bro, it took me over an hour probably. I was waiting on videos to render for work anyways. I hit 460/460 and got an "Install Error" right at the very end! NOOO! I might follow your lead and try Nexus Premium for a month and redownload the modlist. I wish there was an error log to show what went wrong installing everything.
Question, I have successfully installed this on my desktop and thinking of installing this on my laptop as well. Is there a faster way to do this without going through the manual installation of the mods in Nexus Mods? I'm a free user hence I'm asking since I don't want to go through all of the hoops of manually installing mods.
For some reason the mods are not applied in fallout 3 for me. anyone else has this problem also? The dlls are all loaded correctly but when aiming down sights with right click it just zooms in instead of aiming down like in a shooter nowadays. Thats why I am concerned that something went wrong. I followed the whole installation process and did everything correct I believe
Yes, in the top left corner of MO2 just click install mod and pick your zipped mod file. Make sure to enable it by clicking the check box to the left of the mod when you see it in the list below.
Installed, love it so far but i guess it's normal when you leave the vault 101, the f3 dlcs are not appearing anymore and I can one shot people in the heads?
Pity that you start in DC and only can move to nevada later on. I tried to replay DC, but it just didn't catch on. Shame because this mod works great. Really like some of the updated contents. I'll be looking for a NV modlist... Suggestions?
Out of curiosity, can you switch between the games at will or is it a one-and-done deal? As in once you go to the Mojave you can't go back to the Capital Wasteland and so on?
if you're using mod organizer 2 it's quite easy and worry free. If the mod doesn't work, just disable it as it's not actually installed into the main files of the game, rather a mod list, so you don't have to worry about permanently bricking your game etc
Does anyone know if it's mandatory to use an FPS limiter? I have AMD graphics card, but I cannot install Riva Tuner for some reason. It seems like that it is the only FPS limiter that I can use. Any advice on that? Thank you!
I thought I would ask if the mods are compatible with the multiplayer mod if you would know?😅 I can’t really find too much on the multiplayer side of things for installs and if the nvmp mod works with the tale of two wastelands 😁 I just got a pc again after 10 odd years and I’m really rusty with modding and not too sure how to bring tts online properly with functional mods like is shown here 😅 Liked the video and keep up the good work😁
I am interested in running Special K over the DXVK but I cannot find the way how to do so. I can see in your video that you run Special K and it even recognized Vulkan as backend API. is there any way how to apply it on TTW without installing the Wabbajack ? I tried all sorts of the .dll swapping but it either does not work or the game crashes at startup.
Anybody have tips for using a controller with the mod list? A few buttons have the same bindings by default (RB being vats and melee, etc) I have a controller with 2 back buttons that I’m not sure to map. Thanks for anyone that can help!
I've played a few hours of both games but always stopped playing because they just felt too dated. Even with my limited time in the vanilla games, I immediately noticed the difference on all aspects. Better graphics, performance, HUD and primarily; gameplay. The gameplay alone is what took the game from almost acceptable to pretty amazing. I'm basically enjoying Fallout 3 like a "new" Fallout game and I can't wait to get to New Vegas. Just sucks the achievements you get for Fallout 3 don't count
@@SteebRNR Ah ok, yeah I thought maybe they didn't show up because I hadn't earned achievements yet. Ok, that's one less thing to worry about haha, thanks!
@@inkedelchapo8819 This modlist basically turns Fallout 3 and New Vegas into one massive game with overhauled mechanics to bring it more in line with Fallout 4/76 and improved graphics and performance. It's a list of 300+ mods I could never get working on my own. Modlists like this are the future of modding imo. Seriously, making a modlist like this and getting everything to work nearly flawlessly is about as impressive to me as creating actual mods. I've tried for years to mod these games on my own like you but I could never in a million years get as impressive a list as this on my own so I just gave up. I exclusively play these games with modlists now. To answer your question; yes, I used Fallout 3's GOTY edition, but if you are asking me for help with your problem, I haven't the slightest clue haha. I'm horrible at modding. If all this sounds recognizable to you, I highly recommend giving this list a chance. Took me less than an hour to install and it was all pretty straight forward. I completed Fallout 3 and am now playing New Vegas and I can honestly say I can never play either games in their vanilla state anymkre after this list
@theunderdog9353 I got my game modded up but it started crashing non stop. This is the way I think I should of done from DAY 1. I plan on doing it. Did you use VORTEX or another mod organiser?
The download process is completely confusing... It doesnt go over how it connects back to MO2. "The MO2 downloads folder within your Begin Again folder will automatically be chosen as the download location. "... What?
Just leave the top portion as it is, for the install location below that create a folder named “Begin Again Modlist” inside the Wabbajack folder and select that as your install location. The third part will be automatically filled in and you can install
Thanks for the review! Really nice and professional video as usual. I think your points are very fair, and represent the list accurately.
And thank you for making this list, I'm loving my current playthrough!
Thanks for your amazing list!! I've dropped all games to play NV again
so basically if you only want to play new vegas its not a useful mod not as much as 3, its better for 3 if you want to play and start with 3.
@@CasanovaV If you only want to play New Vegas and already know how to mod it, properly, then yes, TTW might not be for you.

I just played it for 20 minutes and so far I am very impressed! Can't wait to play it more tomorrow. Thanks for the hard work 🤘
After installing can I add more mods to this such as weapons etc?
Would you consider checking out the newly released Wild Card mod list?
I have loved this modlist thus far, tho I am 2 updates back hehe. Best modded F3 I had ever experienced only 3 crashes instead of 999999 of them hahaha
Fantastic review! Just a quick question, are both the game's dlcs included? Thanks
You need to already own both games and their dlcs to run this modpack. TTW just bridges the games together
Good review. Do you know if the amount of loot in the game world is reduced?
Thanks.
Is this the definitive way to play the old Fallout games or is there other better mod packs?
This rocks! I’ll need to try this out. Have you tried the Eldryn mod pack for Skyrim? Saw that looked like a Septimus successor and wanted to know your thoughts. Watched much of your playthrough and never had a chance to try Sep out for myself
Can you do a video on the Wild Card modpack for New Vegas/TTW?
The confusing part is if you follow the Official TTW guide, they dont mention wabbajack at ALL. They mention installing a whole ton of fixes after installing TTW. Thats confusing because their guide is considered the official guide.
Can anyone help me? I followed the instructions on the Begin Again Nexus page to a tee (fresh install of FO3/NV, a second Steam library, launch the game once then exit, etc). But when I get to the step to actually install using Wabbajack, I just get "download failed" repeatedly on the left side, then shortly after I get a red "Installation failed" in red on the right side.
Is there a visual walkthrough of how to do this because I know I didn't miss any steps and I'm not really sure what more I can do?
I had the same issue. What fixed it for me was pressing the settings icon in Wabbajack, and then pressing the button to logout of my nexus account and then logging it back in. No idea why, but it works. I set this up yesterday and got sucked in for 8 hours. Hope this helps you and you get to play, because it rules.
@@SpaceJamOnBluRay Thanks man, I'll report back once I try it today!
@@SpaceJamOnBluRay UPDATE - IT WORKED! I never would've thought to sign out and sign back in. What a strange bug. Manually clicking "Download" on every mod is painful but I don't want to pay for Nexus haha.
Cheers!
@@IIMIKEYMOII Awesome, I'm glad it worked for you. I made it about 29 mods in before I said screw it and bought a nexus premium account hahaha. How long did it take to manually click through all of them?
@@SpaceJamOnBluRay Bro, it took me over an hour probably. I was waiting on videos to render for work anyways. I hit 460/460 and got an "Install Error" right at the very end! NOOO! I might follow your lead and try Nexus Premium for a month and redownload the modlist. I wish there was an error log to show what went wrong installing everything.
Do you think my hp windows 11 laptop could run this or do I need to upgrade it
Question for anyone, can you pick and choose which mods to have on/off at anytime in the mod organizer?
Question, I have successfully installed this on my desktop and thinking of installing this on my laptop as well. Is there a faster way to do this without going through the manual installation of the mods in Nexus Mods? I'm a free user hence I'm asking since I don't want to go through all of the hoops of manually installing mods.
is there cut content in it?
For some reason the mods are not applied in fallout 3 for me. anyone else has this problem also? The dlls are all loaded correctly but when aiming down sights with right click it just zooms in instead of aiming down like in a shooter nowadays. Thats why I am concerned that something went wrong. I followed the whole installation process and did everything correct I believe
I’m playing this but I have a bug where If I die in a house,cave , tunnels,any location not outside . I come back but stuck in the floor
Did I understood that right? When you travel to New vegas you reset your Character. But will you be able to return to fallout 3s map?
How do you add other mods to the modlist? Is it via MO2?
Yes, in the top left corner of MO2 just click install mod and pick your zipped mod file. Make sure to enable it by clicking the check box to the left of the mod when you see it in the list below.
Installed, love it so far but i guess it's normal when you leave the vault 101, the f3 dlcs are not appearing anymore and I can one shot people in the heads?
I'm surprised you aren't using TotNW.
Anyone else have issues with Megaton ground textures blinking black?
most likely DXVK, it can add visual artifacts sometimes but it gives a lot of performance so its worth it
@@dippy4197 no I had the issue when DXVK was turned off. With DXVK turned on the issue was non existent :)
got the same issue.
@@The5thSurvivor1998 try DXVK
Pity that you start in DC and only can move to nevada later on. I tried to replay DC, but it just didn't catch on. Shame because this mod works great. Really like some of the updated contents. I'll be looking for a NV modlist... Suggestions?
the fps spikes are insane for me with this mod and i’m running a 4060 with a ryzen 5600x, keeps spiking from 144 fps to 80
U need to cap fps to 60 and read install guide full I play on 3070 no problems if u want use lossless scaling look it up
@@shialabeouf9881 thank you friend 🙏🙏
What mod adds the achievement list for both f3/fnv to the pause menu?
is there any way to adjust the graphics settings to make it run smoother?
Im curious to know if othet mods could work with this list. Like if i wanted to use a body mod, would that work or would it break everything lol
Download all mods needed and it don’t work
The discord link provided doesn't work and when I search the name nothing pops up
great video. could you do an installation video for us dummys.
woooo a new vegas modlist, nice
Just reinstalled it because of the tv serie, great modlist even though i didn't made it to nv yet
went to NV after starting my playthrough in FO3 and i lost all of my items. is there a way to get them back?
Would you be able to make an install guide for begin again please i can't seem to get it working
Out of curiosity, can you switch between the games at will or is it a one-and-done deal? As in once you go to the Mojave you can't go back to the Capital Wasteland and so on?
You can hop on a train and go back and forth whenever you want. TTW makes 2 separate game 1 massive game.
How easy is it to add mods or will they break the whole list
if you're using mod organizer 2 it's quite easy and worry free. If the mod doesn't work, just disable it as it's not actually installed into the main files of the game, rather a mod list, so you don't have to worry about permanently bricking your game etc
Does anyone know if it's mandatory to use an FPS limiter? I have AMD graphics card, but I cannot install Riva Tuner for some reason. It seems like that it is the only FPS limiter that I can use. Any advice on that? Thank you!
Would you ever do a review of the other list in fallout new vegas?
I thought I would ask if the mods are compatible with the multiplayer mod if you would know?😅 I can’t really find too much on the multiplayer side of things for installs and if the nvmp mod works with the tale of two wastelands 😁 I just got a pc again after 10 odd years and I’m really rusty with modding and not too sure how to bring tts online properly with functional mods like is shown here 😅
Liked the video and keep up the good work😁
I am interested in running Special K over the DXVK but I cannot find the way how to do so. I can see in your video that you run Special K and it even recognized Vulkan as backend API. is there any way how to apply it on TTW without installing the Wabbajack ? I tried all sorts of the .dll swapping but it either does not work or the game crashes at startup.
Google “FNV Performance Guide” and you’ll find an easy to follow guide for setting up DXVK or DXVK HDR
Wish I could download and play this but idk whats happening but can get the second library to work at all for me.
Anybody have tips for using a controller with the mod list? A few buttons have the same bindings by default (RB being vats and melee, etc) I have a controller with 2 back buttons that I’m not sure to map. Thanks for anyone that can help!
I've played a few hours of both games but always stopped playing because they just felt too dated. Even with my limited time in the vanilla games, I immediately noticed the difference on all aspects. Better graphics, performance, HUD and primarily; gameplay. The gameplay alone is what took the game from almost acceptable to pretty amazing. I'm basically enjoying Fallout 3 like a "new" Fallout game and I can't wait to get to New Vegas. Just sucks the achievements you get for Fallout 3 don't count
Fallout 3 on steam does'nt have achievements anyway!
@@SteebRNR Ah ok, yeah I thought maybe they didn't show up because I hadn't earned achievements yet. Ok, that's one less thing to worry about haha, thanks!
Hey did you mod Fallout 3 goty edition? I tried my own mod list and the game constantly crashes. Lost 5 hours of gameplay
@@inkedelchapo8819 This modlist basically turns Fallout 3 and New Vegas into one massive game with overhauled mechanics to bring it more in line with Fallout 4/76 and improved graphics and performance. It's a list of 300+ mods I could never get working on my own. Modlists like this are the future of modding imo. Seriously, making a modlist like this and getting everything to work nearly flawlessly is about as impressive to me as creating actual mods. I've tried for years to mod these games on my own like you but I could never in a million years get as impressive a list as this on my own so I just gave up. I exclusively play these games with modlists now. To answer your question; yes, I used Fallout 3's GOTY edition, but if you are asking me for help with your problem, I haven't the slightest clue haha. I'm horrible at modding. If all this sounds recognizable to you, I highly recommend giving this list a chance. Took me less than an hour to install and it was all pretty straight forward. I completed Fallout 3 and am now playing New Vegas and I can honestly say I can never play either games in their vanilla state anymkre after this list
@theunderdog9353 I got my game modded up but it started crashing non stop. This is the way I think I should of done from DAY 1. I plan on doing it. Did you use VORTEX or another mod organiser?
Can you add other mods on top of it? Provided they dont conflict of course.
The download process is completely confusing... It doesnt go over how it connects back to MO2. "The MO2 downloads folder within your Begin Again folder will automatically be chosen as the download location. "... What?
Just leave the top portion as it is, for the install location below that create a folder named “Begin Again Modlist” inside the Wabbajack folder and select that as your install location. The third part will be automatically filled in and you can install
Can you add the green tint back at all ?
