Sandy Roads - Patch Collection Mod

Sandy Roads - Patch Collection

Acknowledgement

Thank you, goshko, for Sandy Roads and many other incredible visual mods.

Description

You can use Sandy Roads as a basic texture replacer, but the main magic happens when using it together with the plugin which changes certain roads to use the sandy variant.

However, this is accomplished by changing a large number of roads in the various worldspaces. If you are using mods that add roads to the world, such as the various landscaping mods, or even Uncut Wasteland, you will soon happen on a mismatch - a piece of road with sand, and a piece of road without it.

This collection of patches aims to resolve these issues. The following DLCs and mods all have a patch in this collection:

1. Honest Hearts - Enhance the looks of this fabulous DLC with Sandy Roads.
2. New Vegas Landscape Overhaul Re-Remastered - A landscaping mod based on New Vegas Landscape Overhaul by Paladin555.
3. Enhanced Landscapes (the full version, no need for patches if using NVLORR and EL for NVLO) - Another landscaping mod based on New Vegas Landscape Overhaul by Paladin555. Lighter than NVLORR.
4. Simple Mojave Urbanization - A newish landscaping mod focused on urbanizing the Mojave a bit more. Not compatible with NVLORR, but compatible (and recommended to use) with Enhanced Landscapes.
5. Uncut Wasteland and Extra Collection (VNV) - The Viva New Vegas version of the good old Uncut Wasteland also adds a road here and there.

I have also checked the following:

1. Desert Landscapes - No need for a patch at the moment.

If you notice any jarring mismatches between roads (and their various chunks), let me know with the coordinates / reference so I can fix it.

For reducing plugin bloat, the FOMOD installer automatically installs a merged patch when using either:

1. Honest Hearts + NVLORR
2. Honest Hearts + Enhanced Landscapes + Simple Mojave Urbanization

Unfortunately, the patch for Uncut Wasteland cannot be merged, as Uncut Wasteland is not flagged as ESM, and therefore the patch must be a normal ESP, unlike the other patches.

Requirements

1. Sandy Roads
2. Any of the above mentioned DLCs/mods to patch.

Installation

Install as normal using the FOMOD. Load the patches after Sandy Roads and the corresponding mods.

Important Note

When installing or updating your patches, do not forget to regenerate object LOD. See the excellent VNV LOD guide.
