Forum:How to use downloaded mods and open the console to use commands?

I just purchased the game for the PC after beating on PS3 so I can live the full experience. Problem is, I don't know how to open the console commands and add the mods I want to use. Can someone please help me? Skateordie1213 19:24, February 20, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, so you were finally enlighted and started to play on PC, my dear Padawan. :D Games that can be modded are usually better played on PC than in a console (don't have nothing against them, BTW). For console commands, try this page on the wikia: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Gamebryo_console_commands

For open the console you press the key ~.

If you want to use mods, just download them and extract on your "data" folder, wich is inside the Fallout New Vegas folder on your PC. I really recommend that you install the game in another location than the "Program Files" folder, specially if you are using 7 or Vista. Then you load them with the FNV loader, just go to the option "Data Files" and select the mod you want to run. Another better tool for loading the game and mods is FOMM, Fallout Mod Manager.

Hope these help. Brfritos 20:01, February 20, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, but I still cannot figure it out. Maybe someone could provide me with a step by step guide on how to do it? Skateordie1213 21:30, February 20, 2011 (UTC)
