📋 About This Mod
A scratch-made retexture featuring normal maps baked from custom hi-poly meshes, and PBR-accurate materials (at least as accurate as you can get with Fallout 4's weird pseudo-PBR shaders)
Versions:
• 4096x4096 - 4k textures, at 1080p they're virtually indistinguishable from 2k and are therefore not recommended.
• 2048x2048 - Recommended for 1080p, good balance of performance/detail.
• 1024x1024 - For weaker systems, these are the same resolution as the vanilla textures.
Installation:
If you're one of those crazy people who doesn't use a mod manager, the textures being replaced are located in the following directory:
"Data/Textures/Interface/Lockpicking"
Copy and replace the 3 textures inside with the ones from this mod:
LockInterface01_d.dds
LockInterface01_n.dds
LockInterface01_s.dds
Programs Used:
• Blender - HiPoly models
• Substance Painter - baking & texture creation
• Photoshop - Formatting & adaptation for Fallout 4
Now available on Bethesda.net!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,239 endorsements and nearly 97k downloads.
- Offers multiple resolution options (4k/2k/1k) to suit different hardware.
- Re-baked normal maps add extra detail without changing gameplay.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2018, so it may not be tested with the latest game patches.
- Only affects the lockpicking interface, so impact is limited to that minigame.
- No explicit install instructions or compatibility notes provided by the author.
For players who spend a lot of time lockpicking and want a sharper, more detailed interface. Also for modders who appreciate high-quality textures. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or if you play on a low-end PC where 4k textures might strain performance.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Choose the 1k or 2k version if you're on a lower-end system to avoid performance hits.
- If you use a mod manager, you can easily switch between resolution options to compare.
- Since it's a texture replacer, make sure it loads after any mods that alter the same interface.
