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 this style 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 the License.txt file in the archive).
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+ after any conflicting mods such as the MCM. You can use the comments at the end of this page but for feature requests or bethXML questions please use the forum instead, as I want these to be accessible by everyone.

Hello. So I'm new to New Vegas modding and have a question. Looking at this logically, the Revelation UI Lite mod should be installed after (and overwrite) Vanilla UI Plus since it reskins the UI, right?
Right. Any mod that recommends to overwrite VUI+, should overwrite VUI+.
Okay, thank you! Great mod by the way.
Hi! Does this mod work with 1440p? Because in main menu (in game too) letters are still blurry.
That's natural it's a 2009 game using a 2004 engine, but this mod should help: Nexusmods.com
Thx!
Is there a way to hide the enemy health bar at the bottom of the screen? (I'm using the floating health mod)
Try Nexusmods.com
Sorta an odd question but, whats with the ninja vault boy? I cant remember this is used in-game or is it part of a mod
