📋 About This Mod
Information
Silky smooth. Instant response. Zero stuttering.
For general play, I recommend the Fast/1. 5x version. The instant one was made for testing purposes.
For wrist-mounted Pip-Boys only.
YUP Fixed
Short version: Use Female Pipboy Fixed - Ultimate Edition
The files were previously named "Female Aligned" but I've learned that it's not accurate at all.
The female Pip-Boy in Yukichigai Unofficial Patch - YUP is from Pipboy Fix, which addresses clipping but introduces misalignment, making the Pip-Boy menu slightly tilted. The YUP Fixed variants help rectify that and align the female Pip-Boy to the male one.
Now if you're following Viva New Vegas word for word, you'll end up installing SMIM after YUP. SMIM contains female Pip-Boy meshes that are identical to vanilla ones, and that will make the YUP Fixed version redundant. However, if you are not looking to use SMIM or just prefer the YUP Pip-Boy for less clipping, then the YUP Fixed ones may be useful.
This Fallout 4 mod removes the Pip-Boy opening animation stutter and offers three speed options: instant, 1.5x, or 2x. It's a lightweight quality-of-life tweak for players who find the default animation sluggish. With 1,605 endorsements and 430,896 downloads, it's a popular choice for smoother menu access.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 430k downloads and 1.6k endorsements.
- Three speed choices let you pick your preferred feel.
- Fixes a common annoyance without changing gameplay.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated January 2026 — may not be compatible with future game patches.
- Only affects Pip-Boy animation; no other features.
For Fallout 4 players who hate the slow Pip-Boy animation and want a snappier menu. Great for those who open their inventory frequently. Skip if you're fine with the default speed or want more comprehensive UI overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, just download and enable; no extra steps needed.
- Test each speed option in-game to see which feels best without causing motion sickness.
- Make sure you have the game's script extender (F4SE) if required by other UI mods, though this one likely doesn't need it.
