📋 About This Mod
Use PipSaver framework to dynamically apply realistic smudges to the Pip-boy screen which change over time
So, first of all, this mod wouldn't have happened without Dynamic Smudged Screens - PipSaver
I saw that they were using Pipsaver to change the Pipboy screen texture to different dirt overlays, a great idea, but it only replaced it with static background textures. Since Pipsaver can be modified to do full material swaps, we can actually easily do a full material retexture, including normal and specular maps. This is the result.
It would have been possible to build this from the ground-up with only Pipsaver as a requirement, but since I basically stole the idea I am not including an ESP and we will use the one from the above mod.
As an additional fun feature, turning on Grayscale mode on Pipsaver will swap your screen with a broken one, so now you can break / fix your screen whenever you want without restarting the game.
Feedback on my textures and materials is welcome! I've tried to make it look as grimey as possible without being distracting.
So far compatible with the different pip-boy replacers I've tested.
Oh, and technically you can use this mod without the requirements. In that case, you'll just get a default set of textures that doesn't change. So if you like my textures and can't or don't want to use Pipsaver that's an option.
