📋 About This Mod
Gets rid of scanlines from the Pipboy and Terminals whilst still keeping the other effects.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Does exactly what it says—no more scanline flicker on your Pip-Boy or terminals
- Tiny mod with a solid download-to-endorsement ratio (10k downloads, 58 endorsements) means it's been tested by the community
- Zero impact on performance—it's just a texture tweak, so no FPS hit
⚠️ Cons
- Niche appeal—if you actually like the retro scanline look, this mod isn't for you
- Only affects Pip-Boy and terminals, so other screen effects remain unchanged (which is the point, but some might expect more)
- Compatibility risk with other UI overhaul mods that touch the same textures—check your load order
For Fallout 4 players who find the scanline effect on Pip-Boy and terminals annoying or eye-straining, and want a cleaner look without losing other visual flair. Skip if you're a purist who loves the retro terminal aesthetic or if you're looking for a broader UI overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install with a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to keep your load order clean—this mod is a simple texture replacer, so it's safe to place anywhere.
- If you're on PC, you can manually drop the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager makes uninstalling a breeze.
- Pair this with other visual tweaks like a Pip-Boy color changer to fully customize your interface.
