📋 About This Mod

On time to change some of the monsters!

V-Ram usage highly reduced for all types except 4k and 8k.

Also corrected the meshes to show the gills/branchiae as known from concept art.

Vivid Fallout - Mirelurk Textures is a high-resolution texture overhaul for mirelurks in Fallout 4, offering 1k to 8k options with optional complex parallax support and a mesh fix. It's designed to be less VRAM-heavy than the original, making it suitable for players seeking improved visuals without performance hits.

✨ Key Features

Texture resolutions from 1k to 8k for mirelurks
Optional complex parallax support for enhanced depth
Mesh fix included to correct geometry issues
Optimized to be less VRAM-heavy than the original mod

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 648 endorsements and over 31k downloads
  • Performance-friendly: claims less VRAM usage than the original, so you can push higher res without tanking your rig
  • Flexible resolution options (1k-8k) let you match your hardware and screen size

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in April 2023 — might not be fully compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or next-gen update
  • No explicit install instructions or compatibility notes provided by the author
  • Parallax support is optional and may require additional setup or mods to work properly
🎯 Is This For You?
For Fallout 4 players who want sharper, more detailed mirelurks without sacrificing frame rates. If you're a texture junkie with a beefy GPU, the 8k option is for you; if you're on a mid-range rig, the 1k-2k options keep things smooth. Skip if you're not bothered by vanilla mirelurk textures or if you're playing on a potato.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—no manual file placement needed.
  • For the parallax effect, make sure you have a compatible ENB or parallax shader mod installed, otherwise it won't show.
  • Start with 2k textures if you're unsure about performance; you can always upgrade to 4k or 8k later.
