📋 About This Mod
Thank you for 1000 downloads :)
To be honest I can't remember why I made this, like out of all things to make better, and I chose mushrooms? Anyway, this mod replaces Vault 22's mushrooms with higher poly versions of the original models by using Blender's subdivide modifier.
As a result of using this modifier instead or remaking the models from the ground up, retextures are fully compatible!
Tools Used:
B. A. E - Used to extract meshes from FNV'S BSAs.
Blender - Used to make Vault 22's mushrooms higher poly.
Blender Niftools Addon - Plugin for Blender that allows Nif files to be imported and exported.
NifSkope - Importing and saving nif files with this makes them not crash the game, I have no idea why exporting a nif file straight from Blender crashes FNV once the model is loaded ingame.
Replaces the mushrooms unique to Vault 22 with higher poly versions, improving visual fidelity without changing gameplay. A niche cosmetic mod for Fallout: New Vegas players who want crisper flora in that area. With 333 endorsements and 39,250 downloads, it's a modestly popular choice for texture enthusiasts.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested with 333 endorsements—players dig it
- Simple visual upgrade for a specific area, no bloat
- High download-to-endorsement ratio suggests it works as advertised
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021—might not be compatible with the latest game patches or mods
- Only affects Vault 22 mushrooms, so if you're not there often, you'll barely notice it
For Fallout: New Vegas players who want to polish up Vault 22's visuals without overhauling the whole game. If you're a completionist who explores every corner, this is a nice touch. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder and enable the mod in your launcher or mod manager.
- If you use other Vault 22 texture mods, load this one after them to ensure the mushrooms get replaced properly.
- Make sure you have the game's DLC or updates that include Vault 22—this mod won't work if you don't have the base game content.
