The Bare Minimum
120 GB of Free Space, A Nexus Account (Preferably Premium), a Global Steam Installation of Fallout NV w/ All DLC, & Fallout 3 With All DLC (GOG, Steam, Or Epic Games will do fine for Fallout 3 only, but Fallout New Vegas REQUIRES a Steam Global Copy)
Make sure you install everything to the root of your drive (Ex: C:/Capital Punishment ; C:/Steam). Protected directories such as your Desktop, Program Files, etc may cause issues.
Completely delete & reinstall all old installations of Fallout New Vegas/3 including your My Games/FalloutNV & My Games/Fallout 3 folders
Tools/Programs You Need
Directx Runtime Libraries, Visual C++ Runtime Libraries, The Wabbajack Launcher, & 7-Zip (Or Winrar)
Installing the Games

2.) Set your resolution and other settings to your liking and close the launcher after
Wabbajack Setup
1.) Launch your installed Wabbajack & go to the Cogwheel at the top right. Log into your Nexus account through here
2A.) If you are installing the list from Nexus, unzip the folder you downloaded. Then, inside wabbajack, go to “Install From Disk”. Find the .wabba file you just unzipped and select it
2B.) If you are installing the list through Wabbajack’s Gallery, go to “Browse Modlists” then search Capital Punishment. Click the download icon,
3.) Set your modlist installation location to wherever your would like it (IE: C:/Modlists/Capital Punishment) & it will automatically create the downloads directory for you. Press the play button when you are done and installation will begin
Installing TTW
1.) Download and unzip the TTW 3.3.2 Installer. Then create a new folder called [NoDelete] Tale of Two Wastelands
2.) Make sure Steam is fully closed, then run the Tale of Two Wastelands Launcher. Set the paths for where your Fallout 3, Fallout NV, & [NoDelete] Tale of Two Wastelands main directories are located, then press install (This takes a while)
3.) After the TTW Launcher successfully completes the installation, zip up the [NoDelete] Tale of Two Wastelands folder. You may now safely delete Fallout 3 from your computer.
4.) When Wabbajack successfully completes installing the modlist, drag this 7zip into your Capital Punishment/Downloads directory. Go back to your main Capital Punishment directory, then open up Mod Organizer 2
