I've literally only ever played an expeditions twice, and today was the first time I did my Refuge quests. I was inspired to make an ESP/Glow mod for Pitt and found G. P. S. by Reddey to be pretty good, just lacking in the ESP department. Reddey's mod uses BGSM and DDS files, which I have no idea how to edit, so I made my own take on this mod using the .nif files. This also allowed me to add the possibility of seeing these items through walls. Despite changing the model rather than the textures, this mod still suffers the same issues as G. P. S. in that any other item around Appalachia using the same model will also be glowing and with ESP. As far as I know the only items that would, would be the Plans Safe. (replacing the Communist Safe)
Install
Dude, seriously just download a mod manager. Dragging and dropping is so much easier. If you need install instructions go to any popular mod or just G. P. S.

P.I.E. (Pitt Items ESP) is a visual mod for Fallout 76 that adds glow and ESP effects to specific Pitt expedition items, making them easier to spot. It uses .nif files to change models, allowing visibility through walls. The author notes the mod is effectively unmaintained due to a permanent ban, but it remains functional for current users.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 316 endorsements and over 7,500 downloads, showing solid adoption.
- Color-coded glow makes quest items easy to spot, saving time during Pitt expeditions.
- See-through-walls capability is a unique advantage over texture-based alternatives like G.P.S.
⚠️ Cons
- Author is permanently banned from Fallout 76 and states mods won't be updated unless by special request, so future compatibility is uncertain.
- Glow effect applies to all items using the same model, potentially causing unintended glowing objects elsewhere in Appalachia.
For Fallout 76 players who run Pitt expeditions regularly and want to quickly identify quest items without squinting. If you're a completionist or speedrunner, this mod is a quality-of-life boost. Skip if you prefer vanilla visuals or are concerned about potential model conflicts.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install—drag and drop the archive and it handles everything.
- If you manually install, place the .nif files in the correct Data folder path, but a mod manager is strongly recommended.
- Be aware that the Plans Safe model is shared with the Communist Safe, so that safe will also glow purple—plan accordingly.
