📋 About This Mod
!!!!!! READ THE BLOODY DESCRIPTION !!!!!!
I DON'T KNOW ENGLISH WELL. SORRY FOR THAT.
There are smarter people than me out there in the Nexus universe. If they think I've done something wrong, please tell me what it is and how to correct it.
My RIG:
AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 6-Core Processor
RTX 3070 8GB
32GB DDR4 RAM
27-inch 2560x1440 monitor
I have the NG version of the game
I play FO4 at a resolution of 2560x1440 on ULTRA.
According to a report by assassindude2447, the mod also works for Fallout London.
ZP's Fire and Smoke:
The mod adds details to fire and smoke (I hope) and will increase the sense of realism when practicing pyromania. The reality is that you have to try it. The details are there, you can see it in the pictures, but it has to be seen in motion.
Textures are 2K and 4K. Some are upscaled 2 times, some 4 times. I'll tell you the truth, I don't care about texture size or dimension anymore, but I try to make it so that I can play FO4 without any problems. From now on the description site will contain data about my calculator so that everyone can compare the situation they are in when they download my stuff. During testing, I found out that the flamer is more fun than I thought.
As a little bonus, I added ash pile textures, since it smolders and when there is an ash pile, let there be a goo puddle.
ZP's Fire and Smoke and ZP's Frost and Shock share some textures, it doesn't matter which mod overrides which.
ZP's Fire and Smoke 2 is online. It is a mod for more powerful machines, the textures are mostly 4K.
18/10/2024 UPDATE - scorched impact textures, new jet pac fire for true hardcore steam punk fans - smoke the world - see pictures, some smoke and ember texture.
Note. If you don't want the new jet pac smoke texture, delete this:

19/10/2024 UPDATE - update for particle coming from fire - see last pictures. Sorry for these micro-updates, I'll summarize it later, but I'm working on other things and figuring out what else I've missed.
24/10/2024 UPDATE - ba2 and loose variant WITHOUT GRADIENT textures. The update contains both updates, you don't need them. Some users have reported seeing white flames in The Fens Sheriff's Department - Bleachers 2 mod. I'm 99. 99 percent sure it's due to the gradient textures. The difference is small, but vi
