📋 About This Mod
Simple enough!
This mod replace the so called "tattoos" by more plausible ones. I tried to keep the spirit in each of them.
Not so much to add.
INSTALATION :
1. Go to "Documents\My Games\Fallout4" and open the file "Fallout4.ini" and edit the following line:
Find: sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\
Change to: sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\, TEXTURES\
2. Drop the "texture" folder into your data folder.
That's it!
Also I won't make request! Just use my DDS freely to make your own, just don't forget to edit the alpha channel! ;)
