Unique Pipboy

This mod enables the PC’s Pipboy to look unique. It does so by providing modified meshes, custom material files (and textures). I wanted to have a nice dark looking Pipboy but I didn’t want other vault dwellers to have the same looking device. So I created my own take on the vanilla textures, which are included. You don’t have to use them, but you will indeed need to have all the textures in the folder or your game will crash! The point of this mod is, as I’ve said, to enable you to use your preferred textures. There are quite a few re-textures out there so I thought it would be nice to be the only one with a stylish piece of tech.

You can replace textures which are the most relevant for your Pipboy to look unique, those are:

Textures\Animobjects\PipboyMy\PipBoy01_d.DDS
Textures\Animobjects\PipboyMy\PipBoy02_d.DDS
Textures\Animobjects\PipboyMy\PipBoyCRT01_d.DDS
Textures\Animobjects\PipboyMy\PipBoyGlow01_d.DDS
Textures\Animobjects\PipboyMy\PipBoyInterior01_d.DDS
Textures\Animobjects\PipboyMy\PipBoyLabels01_d.DDS
Textures\Animobjects\PipboyMy\PipBoyScreen_d.DDS
Textures\Animobjects\PipboyMy\PipBoyScreen_g.DDS

Installation (I don’t like the NMM, so you have to do this manually, sorry. :P)

Add the following to “sResourceDataDirsFinal=” in the Fallout4.ini under “[Archive]”:

, TEXTURES\, MATERIALS\, MESHES\

Unpack the archive into your FO4 directory.

Uninstallation

Remove from the “Data” folder:

Materials\AnimObjects\PipBoy\PipBoy01My.BGSM
Materials\AnimObjects\PipBoy\PipBoy02My.BGSM

Materials\AnimObjects\PipBoy\PipBoyScreenMy.BGSM

Meshes\Pipboy\CharacterAssets\Pipboy.nif
