Installation
1. Before you start, edit your My Games/Fallout4/Fallout.ini and make sure the following line contains atleast this:
sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\, TEXTURES\
without the ", Textures\" entry no external textures will be applyd and this mod is useless ;)
2. Copy the texture folder depending on your desired Resolution into the Fallout4/Data folder
Important Information
Due to the lack of a G. E. C. K. i cannot look into all of the weathers of Fallout 4 and the need for certain textures.
therefore i replaced all textures that where available. As soon GECK is available i am sure the size of the archive will decrease.
Also becasue of the lack of GECK i could not check every wheather there is so there might be some hidden weathers out there
i could not check.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 22,042 endorsements and 1M downloads
- Gives you a choice between high-res and medium-res textures to balance visuals and performance
- A simple visual upgrade that makes the Commonwealth skies look more dramatic
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015 — may not be fully compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or DLC
- No mention of performance impact, so you might need to test both versions to see which runs best on your rig
- Only affects clouds and distant fog — if you want more comprehensive weather overhauls, this won't cover it
For Fallout 4 players who want a quick, lightweight visual upgrade to the sky and distant vistas without overhauling the entire weather system. Perfect for screenshot enthusiasts and modders building a visual overhaul list. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or dynamic weather effects.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod only replaces textures, you can install it manually by dropping the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 makes it easier to switch between Highres and Medres versions.
- If you're using other weather or lighting mods, load order matters: place Radiant Clouds and Fogs after them so its textures take priority, or test to see which combination looks best.
- Check the mod's description page for any notes about compatibility with DLC or other popular mods, as the 2015 update date means it might not have been tested with the latest game patches.
