📋 About This Mod
Because why not?
So, I scoured the nexus to see what we have to blood particle effects, and while there are some, (Kind of) it wasn't scratching that itch for me.
THIS IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE BLOOD MOD
Just to clarify, this mod does not replace any blood decals. This mod overhauls the blood particle effects while adding a bloody mess dripping effect to anyone that's close enough to head/limb explosions in the game.
Pictures just simply does not do what this mod does any justice, so here's some GIF's to really showcase the new blood particles in action.
UPDATE v1. 1
Added dismemberment limb blood spray that lasts a bit longer than vanilla. If I'm correct, this is a FO4 modding 1st.
This does not edit the BodyPartData in any way, however, any mods that edit the bodypart data and replace the default
dismemberment blood spray effect might overwrite.
UPDATE v1. 2
(Probably FINAL, maybe make an ESL version if requested)
Added a new never before done feature probably in video games in general as far as I can tell, is getting close enough to a head/limb explosion will cause anyone close enough to have a bloody drippy mess all over them.
Added a slightly different head explosion FX
Added blood spray effects to the GLOWING ONES
I'd like to mention a mod patch I highly recommend:
Excessive Blood Spray - Texture Tweaks
made by
masterhamper
Patch Features:
ESP
- ESP-FE that extends the time the blood stays on the body before disappearing from the EBSO mod;
from 15 seconds in the original EBSO mod to 120 seconds.
Effect have a chance to apply to both NPC and player when body part explodes but it is not overdone.
- Fixes minor bugs in original mod, like blood that covers the screen when using Enhanced Blood Textures.
Here's a little showcase of my mod in action, all cinematic like!
