📋 About This Mod
Description: This mod retextures the vanilla Plasma weapons into a better-looking-4K version. The default version is the "darker" looking Plasma weapons.
Updates: In the near future there will be a "lighter" version but this stuff takes a bit of time and I don't have a lot of that with auditions for the School of Music at my University, BUT I will do it and it will be uploaded at some point. I will also be retexturing all the mines and grenades as an optional file, but that will also come sometime in the future.
UPDATE 12/22/2017 - There is now a 2k version! A good amount of you asked for a 2k version so here you go! I'm sorry this was not done sooner, college takes up a lot of my time! HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY! (A "lighter" colored version will be uploaded in the future. Like I said, college sucks up a lot of my time, I will get around to it when I can. THANKS!)
INSTALL: NMM: Click the "Download with Manager" button and activate it in NMM itself. It's that simple. MO: It's the same as NMM people. Its not that hard. Manual: Download and extract the files anywhere you want. then go to your Data folder and drop the "Textures" folder into your data folder. IMPORTANT- To make sure you did it correctly, navigate to your FO4 folder and follow this file path, "data/textures/weapons/plasma --> and you should see all the .dds files in there. IF you don't have that file path then you should redo it. (If its still not working for some reason, go to your data folder and create that file path listed above and then go into the file you downloaded and find all the .dds files and drag and drop them into the "plasma" folder you created.) READ ME- If you guys have any request what so ever regarding texture mods PLEASE comment them. I'm always looking for different things to retexture and make better. IF YOU GUYS ENJOY THIS MOD AND WANT SOMETHING ELSE RETEXTURED LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS! THANKS FOR DOWNLOADING MY MOD!
