Short answer: <strong>No</strong>.
<br>
<br>
You cannot use an existing Fallout: New Vegas save to play Viva New Vegas. Even though a save might load, there are too many changes for it to work correctly. No support is provided if you do this anyway.

<h3>Is Linux supported?</h3>

<div class="expander-bottom" id="generalquestion3expander">
<p>
<strong>We cannot provide support</strong> for Linux as we don't use it, therefore we cannot troubleshoot issues specific to it.
<br>
<br>
Assuming you already know your way around Linux, here's <strong>some information that might help you</strong>:
<ul>
<li>Use Proton (for Steam) or Wine TKG or Wine-Bottles fork & Lutris (for non-Steam).</li>
<li>You need Gstreamer codec suite for the game music to play.</li>
<li>Direct the game so it uses a portable MO2 instance (installed in the game prefix, made by either Steam or Lutris).</li>
<li>Stock Wine won't work, since stock Wine has issues with the bundled FOMOD installer.</li>
<li>Install Nvidia drivers if you have an Nvidia GPU.</li>
</ul>

<div class="expander-bottom" id="generalquestion4expander">

Piracy is <strong>not supported</strong> in any way, shape, or form. Any proof that you're using a pirated copy or piracy-related talk <strong>will lead to a ban</strong> from the ModdingLinked Discord server.

<div class="expander-bottom" id="generalquestion5expander">

We <strong>will not provide any support</strong> for NVMP, redirect all questions to their server.

<p>
You may have noticed that when playing the game through MO2, your save files will not appear in the Documents folder like normal. This is because the guide (and Wabbajack) makes use of <b>profile-specific saves</b>, an MO2 feature that redirects where the game looks for saves and where it creates them. This is located in the instance's profile folder, you can access all of them quickly by selecting the <strong>Saves tab of MO2</strong> on the right pane.

<p>You can ask for support in the <a href="https://discord.gg/S99Ary5eba" target="_blank">ModdingLinked</a> Discord server in case any of the advice below does not solve your problem.</p>

This could happen for <strong>various reasons</strong>:
<ul>
<li>Make sure the latest VC++ Redistributables are installed:
<ul>
<li>
<a href="https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/" target="_blank">VC++ AIO</a>
<ol>
<li>Extract the archive and run the included <span class="card-basic">install_all.bat</span> as an administrator.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li><a href="https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe" target="_blank">2015-2022 X64</a></li>
<li><a href="https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe" target="_blank">2015-2022 X86</a></li>
<li>Restart your PC.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
Make sure that DirectX Redistributables are installed and functional:
<ol>
<li>Download the <a href="./files/DirectX Remover.7z" target="_blank">DirectX Redists Remover Script</a> and unpack it.</li>
<li>Run the script as an administrator.</li>
<li>Restart your PC.</li>
<li>Download the <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=35" target="_blank">DirectX Redists Web Installer</a> and run it.</li>
<div class="card-yellow">
<p>
The installer will try to install <b>Bing Bar</b> by default!
<br>
Remember to uncheck it on the second page.
</p>
</div>
<li>Restart your PC.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Base Address Randomization is enabled. This has to be disabled for a modded game to work, you can do so by following <a href="./setup.html#BaseAddressRandomization">these steps</a>.</li>
<li>The 4GB Patcher or the Epic Games Patcher weren't run. Follow <a href="./utilities.html">the steps</a> in the guide. If you are using Wabbajack, follow <a href="./wabbajack.html#RootMods" target="_blank">these steps</a> instead.</li>
<li>xNVSE is not installed correctly or at all, make sure that you have all of the <a href="./utilities.html" target="_blank">utilities</a>. If you are using Wabbajack, follow <a href="./wabbajack.html#RootMods" target="_blank">these steps</a> instead.</li>
<li>You have incompatible mods lingering in your game's Data folder, this is why <a href="./setup.html#Uninstall" target="_blank">a clean slate</a> is required.</li>
<li>If you are using an AMD GPU, make sure that your drivers are updated to the <a href="https://www.amd.com/en/support" target="_blank">latest version</a> or that you are using DXVK according to the <a href="https://performance.moddinglinked.com/falloutnv.html#RecommendedLimiters" target="_blank">Performance Guide</a>.</li>
<li>If you are using a third-party antivirus, add exclusions to the folder Mod Organizer 2 is in. If that doesn't work, try disabling the antivirus completely and rely solely on Windows Defender (which should work fine once exclusions are present).</li>
<li>Close or uninstall Overwolf.</li>
<li>Most programs that ship with pre-built computers or laptops (such as OMEN Gaming Hub for HP OMEN systems) will be prone to issues and should be uninstalled or temporarily closed.</li>
<li>Lock your FPS below 120 according to the <a href="https://performance.moddinglinked.com/falloutnv.html#RecommendedLimiters" target="_blank">Performance Guide</a>.</li>
