📋 About This Mod

BETTER GAS LEAK EFFECT

1. Description:

A very simple mod that changes the way gas leak refraction looks. IMHO it looks much better and more dynamic than default one that's barely noticable. Try it out! You won't be disappointed. :)

2. Installation:

Simply copy Data folder included in the rar file into your main Fallout New Vegas folder. Or use NMM or FOMM.

5. Uninstallation:

To do it manually, go to Data > Textures > Effects and delete "fxflatnorma_n.dds" file Or, better, use your favorite mod manager to do it automatically.

Hope you'll like it! Enjoy!

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a simple texture or effect replacement, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager like Vortex or NMM.
  • Check if the mod requires any DLC or updates—if you're on the latest version, test it early to see if it works.
  • If you're using other visual mods, load order might matter, so place this one last to ensure it takes effect.
