Requirement Checklist

Before you start playing with New Vegas: Multiplayer, you must make sure your installation of Fallout: New Vegas meets the requirements for installation. It is recommended you install Fallout: New Vegas fresh and use a second copied folder of the game to avoid interference and vise-versa. Please ensure all these following requirements are met, or your installation may not behave as expected.

System Requirements

  • Minimum of Windows 7 or higher
  • 4GB of RAM
  • Pure installation of Fallout: New Vegas (without third party mods, or patches)
  • Internet access (required for the first initial patches, but NV:MP fully supports LAN / offline play afterwards)

Game Requirements

  • Steam or GoG version only. The Epic Games version is incompatible with modding entirely, and will not work with NV:MP.
  • Epic Games account required for connecting to public SDK servers (not required for LAN or offline play)
  • Discord account may be required to connect to some public SDK servers

Common pre-installation issues

  • Mod Managers Make sure you do not run any mod managers alongside this installation of New Vegas. Due to a number of content loading issues, mod managers will interfere with NV:MP's load process. Installing any mods manually as described on their individual mod pages is recommended.
  • Excessive amounts of mods Each mod adds additional risk of affecting or completely breaking your NV:MP experience. If you add mods to your multiplayer game, it is recommended to test them individually to identify incompatibilities early in the process.

Installation

  1. Install your version of Fallout: New Vegas through your game platform (Steam or GoG only), if you already have installed the game - make sure it is clean and unmodded before continuing. If you need to clean your installation, please read our guide on cleaning Fallout: New Vegas.
  2. Make sure to launch the game once in singleplayer, this creates any required files needed by the game at runtime - and make sure your game resolution is set to an appropriate size for your desktop via the Fallout launcher window settings.
