📋 About This Mod
So, after doing some work on Non PA -PAs I'm turning my hand to power armour. Just a small mod at the moment.
What this mod does...
This mod re-scales the PA helmet to a size more closely related to a human head. This has two major benefits as I see it:
1. It makes power armour suits appear much bigger 2. It allows for clear visors so you can see parts of your characters face
See below for comparison:
This now covers all the standard Power Armour helms (T45,51,60, X1 and in addition there is a alternative mesh for the x01)
As an extra note, the T45 also comes with a slightly altered mesh for the body. This is as the T45 body extends to high up the neck to get a helm on top without interfering with the cabling.
Compatibility
This mod replaces both the mesh and the GECK item for the T60 helm. The mesh replaces the helmet and the ESP allows the players face to appear in the helmet. It will conflict with any mod that changes the mesh or stats of the T60 suit helmet (texture replacers will be unaffected). Bugs Etc,
There shouldnt be any problems, but if so, let me know.
Finally
If you have any screenshots, I'd be most happy to see them. Otherwise enjoy!
