New Vegas Dragbody Npc Overhaul -

1. Executive Summary Dragbody’s NPC Overhaul is a comprehensive character redesign mod that replaces the vanilla NPC models for a significant portion of the Mojave Wasteland. Instead of simple texture swaps, it introduces custom high-resolution face textures, new hairstyles, beards, scars, eye colors, and sometimes entirely new head models (often sourced from other games like Skyrim or Fallout 4 ).
