🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure you have NVSE installed and running before adding this mod—check the NVSE version matches your game version.
After installing, open the console in-game (usually the tilde key) and try a simple NVSE expression like 'GetPlayerHealth' to see the enhanced output.
If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2, install this mod through it to keep your load order clean.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing without checking requirements
👍 Pros
- Massive community trust: 13,808 endorsements and 1.9M downloads show it's a go-to for console tweaks.
- Unlocks the full power of NVSE scripting in the console—huge for modders and power users.
- Actively maintained: last updated December 2023, so it's likely compatible with current NVSE versions.
👎 Cons
- Requires NVSE (New Vegas Script Extender) as a dependency—if you don't have it, you'll need to install it first.
- No detailed documentation provided in the description—you'll need to experiment or find guides elsewhere.
- Console enhancements are niche: if you rarely use the console, this mod won't add much to your gameplay.
