📋 About This Mod
I MADE A BETTER MOD THAT PRETTY MUCH MAKES THIS OBSOLETE
Consistent Power Armor Overhaul
This mod adds a "metal" paintjob to every power armor that requires no materials and confers no bonuses. In addition, it adds a rusty look to the T51a power armor, so that when you find it in the field it will look appropriately weathered like all the other power armors in the game.
