Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
[Fallout] New Vegas: Ultimate Edition is now out on Steam! Now you have no excuse.

There's no pomp and circumstance in-game to let you know it's loaded. The entrance is indeed in the area you mentioned; it is on the south west-ish corner of the burned-out house near the pond.
I believe if the mod is installed it shows up on the map as an unexplored location (i.e. no fast travel) from the beginning.

Upon entering a casino, I had to turn in all my weapons, as did EDE and my companions.
Upon exiting, I got all mine back. But the weapon locker known as EDE did not. No Tesla Cannon, No Laser Gattling Gun, and the 10 Laser Rifles I keep on hand for repairs...all gone.
Googled it, and it's a glitch.
God dammit this is the buggiest game Ive ever played and it always seems to happen RIGHT as Im really getting into it.
Like skyrim.
I mean, the FIX was to re-load a save prior to entering the casino (the one save I had, being on the XBox where saving needs to be much more deliberate, was in Camp Forlorn Hope, before going to Nelson, before solving the Medical supply mystery, before returning to Bitter Springs to help with aid...), uninstall patch #5, enter the casino, leave, then SAVE, THEN reload the patch.
So I do all that...and my saves are in the cloud (because I had read having too many saves slows things, so I moved to the cloud for my recent ones)...but Microsoft won't let you get on XBox live unless you're patched up to date...so I couldnt GET to my saves.
So I said fuck it and loaded that save and now just have everyone give me their shit before going into a casino. In my role playing mind, every time I'm about to enter anywhere on the strip there's a hilarious exchange where I literally give Cass and EDE all the clothes off my back and my entire inventory of toys, cigarettes, health item, food, water and magazines, and take ALL the weapons in so I'm not over encumbered.
So in the 4 hours I had to play yesterday I advanced about 15 minutes from where I started.
But good. My hunting rifle with scope is tearing shit up. Shame I can't buy much ammo for it. My only regret is leaving my cowboy repeater in Novac. In my defence, ammo for the hunting rifle is plentiful in the wasteland.
Also, how do people survive without the jury rigging perk? Because without it, I'd be quad-fucked. That's right, 4 times the normal level of fucked.
And finally (main quest related spoiler):
This drove me crazy when I was first trying to find the entrance. The guy created an awesome mod. I love the hideout. But in the description he says it's next to a boulder and a pond. Really? Because there are def. like 30 boulders going all around the pond. Oh and let's not mention the fact that it's literally right next to an old house.
Yeah. Just keep doing what the NCR asks and you should be fine.
Why are you even carrying around that much shit? Goddamn, find a hideout of some kind for storage.

Honestly House isn't even that bad a choice as far as choices in the wasteland go. All of your options, NCR, Legion, House, or Independent Vegas are fucked up somehow.
Some are just more fucked up (Legion) than others. But still plausible answers!

Jury Rigging is one of my favoritest things in NV . Even if I want to mix things up in playthroughs, jury rigging is a necessity for me. Plus, it tickles me that I can repair a power fist with boxing tape.
I'm only at level 10 in my current play through and I'm wanting to rush to 14 to get the perk. I have a heap of cheap armor and weapons at home I want to use to improve the better stuff.
Though I just grabbed And Stay Back, so now everything is peachy keen on the combat side even if I'm resorting to using the crappier shotguns at the moment. Shotgun builds can be so silly.

I once lost Annabel when ED-E's quest kicked in and it had to leave me for awhile. When it came back? Inventory empty; my named rocket launcher was gone. That was rough.
Kinda sucks.
Because riding a moose in Fallout would be awesome.

Plus, it'd make Moore furious, and that's always funny.
Yeah, I went there.
Yeah a massacre run doesn't leave you with a lot of friends. Although I was surprised how many NCR guys I killed before they actually started shooting at me on site.
New Vegas is oddly one of the few open-word/Western RPG games I played where I actually role-played a bit. I usually just go the "good guy/evil douchebag" route on two playthroughs with maybe a neutral playthrough later if the game suggests it. But my Courier had things like a code against unprovoked killing (which she violated twice,) and weird obsessions and everything.
I also love the Kings. I wish I met up with them earlier, they would have shaped my views a lot.
I want to say 20-odd? The quest markers to get them point you right to them, and you can get them out of order. Not a huge deal.
but honestly I've min-maxed the hell out of it so much it's hard not to break it
maybe I should try setting some house rules, to mix it up
I found not using chems on my Legion playthrough was pretty interesting
no chems, hardcore mode, stricter weight limit... gotta find some way to stop myself from getting the best guns right off the bat though
I do like how some of the upgrades turn useless crap into things you'd actually use like:
I just recently started up again. Enough of a break that its not super predictable, so kind of enjoying relearning/remembering stuff. That said, I'm already getting some loading screen errors so bleh.
I'd say to toss on a bunch of crazy quest/area/enemy mods to spice things up, but maybe that's just me. There's a few new AWOP areas that I've never seen, so its been interesting to me. Also just ran into my first Warzone, so that was pretty fun. 2 dozen vipers vs. Me and a bunch of rangers? Yes, please.
Maybe even a suit that boosts science by a lot or something like that?
