Paper Mario 64 Total Conversion, Star Nova, Has Been Released
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/paper-mario-64-total-conversion-star-nova-has-been-released/
YouTube’s ‘NicTube’ has released a new total conversion mod for Paper Mario 64 that PC gamers can enjoy via emulators, called Paper Mario Star Nova. This is a huge total conversion mod for this Nintendo 64 Mario game. So, let’s take a closer look at it.
Paper Mario Star Nova is a full-scale story-based Paper Mario 64 mod. It has multiple new chapters, an entirely new lore and story, and a brand new world. It also comes with new characters, new partners, new enemies/bosses, and over 70 new star pieces.
Since this is a mod for Paper Mario 64, you’ll need its ROM to run it. As I said, this is a mod for the N64 game. I’m saying this because in the past few months, we’ve seen a lot of unofficial PC ports of numerous Nintendo 64 games. This isn’t the case here.
Anyway, you can go ahead and download Paper Mario Star Nova from this link. Below, you can also find its official trailer. This should give you an idea of what you can expect from it. So, make sure to watch it before downloading it.

Gameplay Overhaul Mod Released for BioShock 2 Remastered
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/gameplay-overhaul-mod-released-for-bioshock-2-remastered/
Last month, we informed you about a gameplay overhaul mod for BioShock Remastered. And today, I’m happy to report that a similar mod is available for BioShock 2 Remastered.
Created by VoidCrownStudios, The Wrath Of Lamb brings numerous weapon and Plasmid changes. Moreover, it reworks the game’s economy, it unlocks the vending machines, and it multiples enemy spawns.
The result is a fresh experience for both new and returning players. It’s a cool mod for those who have not recently played BioShock 2 Remastered. By using it, you’ll get a somewhat different experience from the one you originally had. Yes, the story will remain the same, but this is a cool gameplay mod to use in your second or third playthrough.
The mod offers three options for increasing the number of enemies. You can choose between 5X, 10X, and 20X. That 20X multiplier can make the game feel crazy. It’s for those who want an additional channel. You can get a taste of it in the trailer I’ve included below. It’s cool to see Rapture filled with all those enemies.

One mad modder got the entirety of The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind running on Fallout 4's in-game Pip-Boy
https://www.pcgamer.com/games/fallout/one-mad-modder-got-the-entirety-of-the-elder-scrolls-3-morrowind-running-on-fallout-4s-in-game-pip-boy/
Days before committing the world historic sin of putting quest markers into The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind, modder RPGKing117 already earned himself a pardon: He created a mod that lets you play The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind on the in-game Pip-Boy and computer terminals of Fallout 4.
RPGKing117 has a nice demonstration of the mod up on YouTube, showing it running on a stationary computer terminal rather than Fallout 4's iconic wrist-mounted menu system. It is, perhaps, not the optimal way to play Morrowind.
Forget the low resolution: That dark, monochrome screen is gonna be the real dealbreaker for a 100-hour playthrough. You'll also need a computer powerful enough to run both games at once⁠—not an absurd luxury these days, but this might not work on Steam Deck.
But who cares about that, nerd? A game within a game is one of the funniest bits you can pull in the medium, by my reckoning, and there is an undeniable anarchic joy to seeing the 2002 RPG rendered in this way. My favorite little touch: The in-game cassettes with Morrowind's box art that you can pick up and drag around, maybe decorate your house in Sanctuary with.
