✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,225 endorsements and nearly 30k downloads—clearly a hit.
- Easy to apply in-game, no console commands or fiddly file edits.
- Gives your robots a fresh, clean look that fits a pre-war aesthetic.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2017—might not be tested with the latest Fallout 4 patches or DLC.
- Only affects robot paint; if you wanted more customization like decals or wear options, this isn't it.
- No screenshots or detailed instructions in the description, so you're going in blind until you try it.
For Fallout 4 players who love building robots and want them to look shiny and new instead of battle-worn. If you're into role-playing a pre-war military or just hate rust, this is a quick visual upgrade. Skip if you want gameplay changes or more extensive robot customization.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the Automatron DLC installed, as the Robot Workbench is required.
- After installing, load your save and head to any Robot Workbench—the new paint options should appear in the paint category.
- If you don't see the paints, double-check that the mod is enabled in your load order and that you're using the latest version of the mod.
