2k Brass by Danvsw
Description: 2048x2048 shell casings retexture for CaliberX. Not complete, but includes the game's most common calibers; 9mm, 10mm, 5. 56mm, . 22lr, 12gauge, . 45 acp, and 7. 62×51mm/308 win. Also includes a new shotgun shell model that I made.
Note I have downscaled almost all the shell casings in my footage for a more accurate portrayal. You can do the same by going to data/meshes/projectiles and editing the models in nifskope.
How to install: Simply add to your mod manager and activate, or extract manually to your main folder and overwrite, after installing CaliberX.
To see the shell casings clearly in-game, since they are usually too fast, use the console to type "tfc" (free camera) and "sgtm 0. 1" for slow motion (1. 0 is normal, 0. 1 is 10% speed, 0. 01 is 1%, etc). Or you can use DK_BulletTime for a slow motion hotkey.
I also recommend Permanent Weapon Shells if your PC can handle it.
A 2048x2048 shell casing retexture for CaliberX, covering the most common calibers: 9mm, 10mm, 5.56mm, .22lr, 12gauge, .45 acp, and 7.62×51mm/308 win. Not complete but includes the frequently used ones. With 218 endorsements and 6,191 downloads, it's a niche but appreciated visual upgrade for Fallout: New Vegas players using CaliberX.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Sharp 2K textures make casings pop in the wasteland.
- Community-approved with 218 endorsements and 6,191 downloads.
- Covers the calibers you actually use, so you'll see the improvement often.
⚠️ Cons
- Not complete — some calibers are missing, so you'll see vanilla casings for those.
- Last updated in 2015, so it might not play nice with newer mod setups or game patches.
- Requires CaliberX as a dependency, so it's useless if you don't run that mod.
For Fallout: New Vegas players who run CaliberX and want a quick visual upgrade for shell casings without overhauling the whole game. Skip if you don't use CaliberX or if you prefer a complete retexture covering every caliber.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure CaliberX is installed first, then drop the files into your Data folder and enable the mod in your load order.
- If you use a mod manager like NMM or Vortex, you can install this directly and let it handle the file placement.
- Since it's from 2015, check if your game version is compatible; if you're on a newer patch, test it early to avoid crashes.
