📋 About This Mod

There's one thing I really liked in Fallout 3's world design, it was all the industrial buildings pieces and textures. They were rusted to hell and had a very post apocalyptic feel to them, unlike the bright whites, reds and blues of Fallout 4.

I am no expert in working with Textures, but I feel like what I've done with the vanilla textures is ok. Worst Best case scenario, this mod may inspire someone who actually knows what they are doing to create a better industrial set.

The mod comes with two options:

  • []The main file is the version with the washed out colours.

    []The optional file is the version with the rust only.

    Modified Textures (v1. 0):

    • []Blue, metal rooms, that are often used near concrete buildings,

      []Metallic beams/frames (red, white and rusted textures),

      []The default version of the industrial catwalk,

      []The exterior pipes (default, red, blue and rusted textures),

      []The silos (default, red, blue, rusted and striped textures),

      []Shipping crates colours.

      Future Updates:

      • []Skyscrapers (see preview screenshots in the images tab) - done v2. 0

        []Improved (more rusty) shipping containers - done v2. 0

        []Cars, Trucks (and their trailers), Forklift and cranes - done v2. 0

        []Highways' green structures - done v2. 0

        []Green metal warehouses - done v2. 0

        []A few other colourful items - done v2. 0

        []Maybe: Satellite arrays - done v2. 0

        []Maybe: Billboard signs
