📋 About This Mod

Tales from the Commonweath is a must-have, awesome mod.

It does not contain FaceGen data though, which means the game has to generate it on the fly, which can cause slight stutters whenever a new NPC from that is encountered.

This mod contains pregenerated FaceGen-data, slimmed and optimized for use with PhyOp mod. (512 _d and _n, 256 _s for FaceGens only)

Works with whatever Face Textures you have installed, they use your own textures!!

I believe the BA2 version will give the best performance, but your mileage may vary.

REQUIRES:

Tales from the Commonwealth

https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/8704

Download both/either Tales from the Commonwealth, and/or Settlers from the Commonwealth

For PhyOp version, it requires PhyOp - Overhauled Optimized Textures

Slims down many textures, for far smoother gameplay. Very little visual loss.

It lowers quality of FaceGens by 2x-4x, so vanilla version won't work without this.

RECOMMENDED:

Fixes precombines for some cells

Credits to jltoga for generating those facegens!
