Extended Finish

Stewie Tweaks - VNV Extended INI

Preconfigured collection quality of life features, bugfixes, performance patches, and gameplay changes that fit the VNV Extended list.

Installation instructions

  • Main Files - Stewie Tweaks - VNV Extended INI
  • Move the mod to the Bug Fixes separator, you can also uninstall Stewie Tweaks - VNV INI when using the VNVE one.

Applying the Load Order

The final step is to apply the load order of installed plugins. The guide comes with a premade load order file, which ensures all mods are being loaded in correct order, with all conflicts accounted for.
  1. Download the Load Order from here.
  2. Once it has finished downloading, click the MO2 folders button at the top of MO2 and click Open Profile folder.
  3. Drag the loadorder.txt from the downloaded archive into the folder you just opened and overwrite when prompted.
  4. Once the file is extracted, click F5 while you are on MO2 without any menu open.
  5. Right-click in the right pane of MO2 and select Enable all.

If you have not added any mods to the guide, CC - 3D Rain.esp should be the last plugin in your load order (the Plugins tab in the right pane of MO2) after applying the load order and refreshing MO2.

If it's not the last plugin after refreshing, make sure that you are sorting the load order by priority by pressing the Priority column on the top.

If that still doesn't work, you can join our Discord server for support.

Running the Game

Due to the way Mod Organizer 2 works, running programs through it is a requirement in order to load mods. This is done in the top-right corner of the manager, where the program to run is chosen. Here, select New Vegas.

For the sake of convenience you may also create a shortcut (right below the Run button) so that you won't have to manually open MO2 each time before playing.
Launching the game

Q: Aren't you supposed to launch through NVSE?

A: The 4GB Patcher and the Epic Games Patcher both allow the game's main executable to automatically load the script extender.

Refer to the FAQ section for more information and solutions to possible problems you might encounter at this stage of the guide.


You have now completed the entirety of Viva New Vegas and you can start playing. Have fun!

Want More?

Adding mods independently and without the help of a guide is only recommended after you have learned the required information and workflow. These range from general technicalities about the game, to solving conflicts with xEdit through The Method.

You can find sources for all this information and more in the Resources section. You should also be aware of the Tools and Mods to Avoid.

We may not provide support for setups that have added mods, especially if you went overboard!
