📋 About This Mod
Ultimate Window Overhaul makes Commonwealth more immersive with photorealistic windows.
Includes new materials and textures! No scripts, no meshes, no performance difference!
Bored of Fallout 4's sticker-looking 'windows' pasted on walls? This mod overhauls all building windows in the game to be much more realistic with high quality textures and reflections.
WHY?
Because cheap building windows in Fallout 4 kills immersion. They are not 3D modeled, and they lack proper shape and reflection details.
COMPATIBLE WITH:
ANNIVERSARY UPDATE
NEXT-GEN UPDATE
OLDER VERSIONS
FALLOUT 4 VR (without SSR)
Basically, compatible with everything.
EASY INSTALLATION:
NO MESHES.
NO FPS IMPACT.
NO SCRIPTS.
NO EFFECT ON SAVE FILES.
Hassle-free installation and uninstallation with no effect on save games or precombines.
(This mod separates all the building windows' cubemaps to Data\Textures\Shared\Cubemaps\WindowCubemaps folder. Names of the individual cubemaps are the same. You can use your own custom cubemap files that will only affect the window reflections or develop custom cubemap mods for the windows!)
USING A MOD MANAGER:
INCLUDED FOMOD INSTALLER WITH CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS
Install the mod file using a mod manager and customize the reflections as you like.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL THE ENDORSEMENTS!
NEW REFLECTIONS
The windows will alternate between pre-baked (cubemaps) and real-time (SSR) reflections depending on the angle you look.
a) "Cubemap Reflections" refer to pre-rendered, pseudo reflections. They are the source of the main reflective look.
b) "Screen Space Reflections (SSR)" are real-timed reflections.
-
[]They work like a mirror and reflect the other side of the screen. All you see from reflections are real.
[
]SSR functions when viewing windows from narrow side angles, as it operates through screen mirroring.Activating ENB with Reflections can change the appearance of Screen Space Reflections (SSR). It may intensify them but could also cause flickering. It's worth giving a try!
