Fallout 3 - Mods ?

[Fredrikmikael]

Hello there!

Because of all the hype surrounding the Fallout 4 reveal, i thought i would give the praised by all - Fallout 3 a go.

But since the game is from 2008/2009 i doubt it will be taxing on my current system, so if there are any "must have" mods out there to improve texture quality and such, please leave a comment.

 

What are some "Must have" mods you would recommend for me?

 Yea before going to work earlier i was browsing through the web where people were making it work by adding a text file onto a bin folder within fallout...... Then others said to modify the compability loader.....

I have used all of these other then "errors corrections" so you shouldn't have compatibility issues. That being said for the love of god read you installation notes, use FOMM and learn how to mod FO properly.
