📋 About This Mod

High quality 4K gecko retexture.

If my mods ever made you enjoy your game a bit more than usual, consider buying me a coffee.

This mod is a highly detailed retexture of all geckos in the game. Just like my previous mods, RADSCORPION and DEATHCLAW, I have decided to create an optional classic version of the textures, which are supposed to resemble the original F1/F2 creature designs. There is a classic colored option for each gecko variant in the game.

Since there was no Green Gecko in classic Fallout games, I took some artistic liberty with it's classic design. I made it more green, added the green ears with red element just like all other classic variants and made it's eyes yellow.

In the vanilla game, Green Gecko Hide actually looks like Golden Gecko Hide. Obsidian was too lazy to create new texture for the green hide, which takes like 3 minutes. There is an option in the FOMOD to make the Green Gecko Hide actually green through an esp-less script. This option requires JIP.

There is also an option to make the stretched gecko skins from Honest Hearts use the new green gecko hide texture instead of regular gecko hide. It makes sense since Green Gecko is native to the Zion Canyon and the natives hunt it. However, some of the existing mods that overhaul locations in the game might reuse these stretched skin objects in Mojave Desert, which will make less sense since Green Geckos are not present there. It's up to you if you want to install it or not.

Anyway, pick your geckos and have fun!
