📋 About This Mod

8K Resolution now available.

Now includes Touch-Up modifications.

NOTE: As of 4/23/20 - Waiting for my Steam copy of Fallout 76 and an update is possible. No guarantee on that though.

As of August 3rd, 2022 - Mod is currently out-of-date. An update is not likely anytime soon, if at all.

However there are some great map mods out there these days. This one was made for them early days. Hope everyone enjoyed it while it lasted.

The mod requires more time than I can throw at it and certainly more concentration than what I seem to be capable of these days.

As always, happy gaming!

Added a caps icon to the vendor list

Changed the map file compression for better performance

Have you not memorized the locations yet? Tired of alt tabbing or looking on your phone for robot vendors?

Well I got the MAP FOR YOU!!! CALL NOW!..... I mean hit the download button, it is free after all.

I added a color coded legend on the upper left and put matching colored coded squares around the map markers with robot vendors at them.

Was a PIA getting it all lined up neatly

You will also notice some brightness and contrast touch up, making things pop a little more.

It is simply quite amazing at what a little bit of brightness/contrast touch up can do.

To install...

Copy & Paste the MapVendors.ba2 and MapTouchUp.ba2 files into the Fallout 76\Data directory.

Default install location

C:\Program Files (x86)\Bethesda.net Launcher\games\Fallout 76\Data

Your game installation may be different if you chose a custom location before downloading the game

Now copy & paste the included Fallout76Custom.ini into the directory below.

C:\Users\YourComputersUsername\Documents\My Games\Fallout 76

Edit in MapVendors.ba2 and MapTouchUp.ba2 to your already created Fallout76Custom.ini

sResourceArchive2List = SeventySix - 00UpdateMain.ba2, SeventySix - 01UpdateMain.ba2, SeventySix - 00UpdateStream.ba2, SeventySix - 01UpdateStream.ba2, SeventySix - 00UpdateTextures.ba2, SeventySix - 01UpdateTextures.ba2, SeventySix - MeshesExtra.ba2, SeventySix - 02UpdateMain.ba2, SeventySix - 03UpdateMain.ba2, SeventySix - 04UpdateMain.ba2, SeventySix - 02UpdateStream.ba2, SeventySix - 03UpdateStream.ba2, SeventySix - 04UpdateStream.ba2, SeventySix - 02UpdateTextures.ba2, SeventySix - 03UpdateTextures.ba2, SeventySix - 04UpdateTextures.ba2, SeventySix - GeneratedMeshes.ba2, SeventySix - StaticMeshes.ba2, SeventySix - 05UpdateMain.ba2, SeventySix - 05UpdateStream.ba2, SeventySix - 05UpdateTextures.ba2, MapVendors.ba2, MapTouchUp.ba2

To install Loose file...

I, myself, have never used loose files.

If you're looking for a loose file to install with, then you probably already know what you're doing with them.

If you got any questions, do not hesitate to ask. Take it easy on me, this was my first Fallout mod >.<

Something a little extra

A write up I done for having your own custom loading screens.
