Like most Bethesda games, ''Fallout: New Vegas'' features a very large [[Mod (video games)|modding]] community with several high-profile mods and well-known modders.

====J.E. Sawyer's mod====
On December 29, 2011, ''Fallout: New Vegas'' director [[Josh Sawyer|Josh "J.E." Sawyer]] released an unofficial mod for the PC version. The mod adjusts the maximum level to 35, halves the rate of increase in player experience points, reduces base player health, reduces the base weight a player can carry, defines certain characters as good or evil rather than neutral, and makes various other adjustments. These are changes that Sawyer wanted to be included in the game, but they were not released as an official update.

Mods

Like most Bethesda games, Fallout: New Vegas features a very large modding community with several high-profile mods and well-known modders.

J.E. Sawyer's mod

On December 29, 2011, Fallout: New Vegas director Josh "J.E." Sawyer released an unofficial mod for the PC version. The mod adjusts the maximum level to 35, halves the rate of increase in player experience points, reduces base player health, reduces the base weight a player can carry, defines certain characters as good or evil rather than neutral, and makes various other adjustments. These are changes that Sawyer wanted to be included in the game, but they were not released as an official update. This mod requires all add-on packs to work.[1][2]

Tale of Two Wastelands

Tale of Two Wastelands is a total conversion mod for Fallout: New Vegas that merges the entire content of Fallout 3 and its DLC and New Vegas into one game. The mod implements features introduced in New Vegas into Fallout 3, such as the Companion Wheel, crafting recipes, and weapon mods. Players can freely traverse between the two games on a single save file, keeping all of their items and their progression between game worlds.[3][4][5][6][7]

New California

Fallout: New California (originally named Project Brazil) is a total conversion mod for Fallout: New Vegas by Radian-Helix Media, adding an all-new feature-length campaign and world space, complete with voiced characters, quests, companions, factions, and multiple endings, set in the California Wastelands of the San Bernardino Mountains.[8]

The Frontier

Fallout: The Frontier is a new worldspace mod for Fallout: New Vegas set in the ruins of Portland, Oregon, under nuclear winter. It features a game-length campaign with three questlines, with full voice acting. It was released on Nexus Mods on January 15, 2021, with a planned release on Steam being delayed one week. Shortly after launching, the website for Nexus crashed.[9][10][11][12][13]

The mod was briefly pulled after one of its developers was found to have created "animated paedophilic content"[14] and was later re-released with changes to address the criticism (mainly removing all content by the former developer, most of which were icons for in-game perks and items).[15] Other controversies surrounding the mod include scenes implying zoophilia, the ability to enslave an 18-year-old woman, a lack of coherence with the established Fallout universe, and themes that some critics asserted were depictions of the developers' sexual fetishes.[16][17][18][19]
