💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this is a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Fallout 3 Data folder – no mod manager needed, but using one like FOMM makes uninstalling easier.
  • If you use other texture mods, load this one after them to ensure it takes priority.
  • Make sure to check the file structure – if it includes a .esp, you'll need to activate it in your load order, but most retextures are just textures.
