📋 About This Mod
Old Fallout 3 eyes appear washed out and lifeless, with this mod I\'ve tried to add some life to them using a custom normal map. They\'ll look gorgeous in some lighting and good in the rest (especially the blue), at least I think so :) The textures are a tweaked version of Darknssfalls\' RealEyes textures, I\'ve only touched them up and adjusted the size a bit. Updates will probably follow as I do more tweaking. To install (assuming you have the Fallout 3 Mod Manager) simply extract the two folders (textures and meshes) to your Fallout3/Data/ directory and overwrite any old files. **** If you come across anything that looks wonky (eg. eyes looking like they\'re pointing in opposite directions) please leave a comment letting me know (preferably with a screenshot). Enjoy :)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,356 endorsements and over 27k downloads.
- Simple texture replacer—no complex setup, just drop-in and go.
- Improves eye realism with a custom normal map, a step up from vanilla.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2009—may not be compatible with newer Oblivion mods or patches.
- Only affects eyes; no other facial features are changed.
- Requires the original Darknss RealEyes textures, which are not included.
For Oblivion players who want more realistic eyes without overhauling the whole game. If you're a modder or enthusiast looking for a quick visual upgrade, this is a solid pick. Skip if you want broader facial improvements—this is purely an eye texture replacer.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a texture replacer, just extract the files to your Oblivion Data folder and overwrite when prompted.
- Make sure you have the original Darknss RealEyes textures installed first, as this mod builds on them.
- If you use a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash, you can install it as a package for easier management.
