📋 About This Mod

Why settle for tired, travel-worn features when you can enjoy a refreshed, polished presentation—crisper detail, smoother finish, and that unmistakable Fallout charm intact. Now, in the newly streamlined 2. 0 edition, it’s been redesigned for convenience. Fewer requirements. Fewer hoops. F. E. V. Free results.

The Commonwealth runs on caps, duct tape, and whoever’s brave enough to haul a brahmin through gunfire. This overhaul gives the travelling and random encounter merchants a cleaner, more defined look—faces that feel lived-in, road-worn, and believable. Not glam. Not perfect. Just the kind of people you’d expect to meet on a cracked highway with a pack full of questionable goods and a smile that says “no refunds.”

This covers travelling merchants and random encounter vendor NPCs found across the Commonwealth.
