Dedicated to the users who provided me with criticism & feedback.


Vanilla UI Plus (VUI+) is a Fallout 3 & New Vegas mod that greatly improves the user interface without compromising the original style. I like vanilla as it reminds me of old PLATO programs, and the original fonts are easy to read by everyone, including controller users. To quote Billy Graham:

“And get a bible with big print. I think one of the greatest tricks that the devil ever pulled off on the American people was when he started printing bibles with such little print that nobody can read them.”

VUI+ has a few prominent and hundreds of under-the-hood features, as seen in the annotated screenshots below and the changelog. It’s provided under a copyleft license (see License.txt in the mod package). Here's a very promising fork.

To request support, please use the latest versions of xNVSE, JIP-LN, UIO, Stewie’s Tweaks, JohnnyGuitar and YUP, and make sure that you have installed VUI+ according to this guide. You can post comments at the end of this page but for feature requests or technical questions please use the forum instead.

Vanilla UI Plus has detected an installation error. If you are using MO2, simply drag this mod (not the plugin) under conflicting mods and make sure you have installed UIO!

Good. Show me a screenshot of your overwrites folder.

These look good, are you sure you have no extra overwrites ?

Try uninstalling VUI+ and then reinstall it last. See if that fixes the problem, then move it right below the MCM.

Yes, as I've said "Assuming that you remove all mods after VUI+" remove any mod that overwrites VUI+ until you stop seeing this error.

The comments section is not meant to be used for this type of support. You better use the forum. However, your issue is not related to VUI+ and my suggestion is the same: remove mods until you find which one is giving you this problem.

Assuming that you remove all mods after VUI+, does it still give you the error?

Then you have some leftover overwrites in the game. That's the only logical explanation. MO2 has a generic overwrites folder, check this one out. There's probably some files in your Menus folder there.
