🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure to place the files in your Fallout: New Vegas Data folder, typically at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout New Vegas\Data.
If you use a mod manager like Nexus Mods Mod Manager or Vortex, you can install it directly through the manager for easier management.
After installing, launch the game and test the camera in third-person mode to see the centered view and increased zoom distance.
