📋 About This Mod
This mod hides the Pip-Boy in 3rd person view. It is still visible when opening the menu with Tab. The bug with certain clothing has now been fixed thanks to ty_cho.
The mod is now also an *.esp instead of a mesh replace. It was created with FO4Edit (the one that should not corrupt saves).
A simple utility mod for Fallout 4 that hides the Pip-Boy from view when playing in third person. With over 6,400 endorsements and 200,000 downloads, it's a popular quality-of-life tweak for players who find the wrist device visually distracting. Last updated in 2015, it remains a stable, lightweight addition.
