About this mod

Adds a two-story player home to Freeside, conveniently located near the Mojave Express box, with a fast-travel marker. The home is inside a previously-unused building. Access is via a new interior passageway that connects to both halves of Freeside, offering the convenience of entering and exiting to either part of Freeside.

Adds a two-story player home to Freeside, conveniently located near the Mojave Express box, with a fast-travel marker. The home is inside a previously-unused building. Access is via a new interior passageway that connects to both halves of Freeside, offering the convenience of entering and exiting to either part of Freeside.


Features: Three new recipes and crafting stations, new artwork, ample storage, fresh water, working lights, well-rested bed, magic 8 ball, haircut razor, map marker for fast travel, nav meshed interior. Does not include swimming pools, armed guards, or other deluxe penthouse type features. Does not replace any existing game files.

Access: Find the key inside the hollow rubble a little to the left as you face the door on the Mojave Express side.

Requirements: Fallout: New Vegas, patched to the latest version. No other DLC or mod is needed.

Installation: Extract the files to your game's Data folder, preserving the folder structure. Click Yes when prompted to overwrite files (it's just adding to the Meshes and Textures folders, not actually overwriting existing files).

Removal: Before uninstalling, be sure that you are not under the effect of any of the craftable consumables that this mod adds when you save your game, then just delete the files that the mod adds.

Compatibility: Will obviously conflict with any mod that blocks the area where the two new doors are situated. If you use a mod like Freeside Open or Open Freeside which merge the parts of Freeside into one cell, use the alternate version of this mod (it does not require Freeside Open, but the entrance is moved to "King's Corner" for compatibility).

This house is just a reworking of my Freeside Prospectors House. I liked the interior but wanted a different setting. The two mods share the same folder for art assets. They’re the same files, so it’s safe to overwrite if you have the other mod. The interiors are nearly the same, but the recipes vary a little.

This is just a house mod. Numerous items inside, such as books and skill magazines, are for decoration only, so you can't pick them up. The new consumables are intended to be useful enough to be worth making, but not overpowered, which of course is subjective. They are food items, so they scale with your Survival skill as other food items do.

I realize that the interior geometry is a little too large in one direction to fit what you see from the outside. I wanted a window in that location and this way the directions match up. Use your imagination. Maybe it’s just bigger on the inside than on the outside, fellow time travelers.

I take a minimalist approach to house mods. I do not use sorters. However you can easily add sorting to this or any other house mod with Mobile Auto-Sorter by Glenstorm (http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/43412).
