📋 About This Mod
Work-in-progress mod to add more detail to some neglected weapons that haven't yet been given a proper retexture. So far, that is limited to the Nail Board and the Sledgehammer, with more to come. The screenshots don't do the textures justice, as to see specular highlights you kind of gotta move the objects around a bit in-game.
Straight Razor + Figaro
The Humble Cudgel
Includes an .esp which only edits Texture Sets and can be merged into a bashed patch.
Lead Pipe + Nephi's Golf Driver (Use texture sets; would require an .esp. Might actually just not use an _m mask or environment map.
I recommend using Millenia's Environment Map Shader Fix, as without it specular details hardly show up in FNV.
The mesh includes the collision detection fix seen in RoyBatterian's Weapon Mesh Improvement Mod.
Thanks to DcCharge for his FNV HD Texture Packs, the textures from which I denoised and imported into Substance Painter to help make this.
A cosmetic mod that adds specular detail and cleans up upscaled textures for neglected weapons, part of a planned series. With 343 endorsements and 44,535 downloads, it's a popular choice for players wanting improved visuals without full retextures.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing (343 endorsements) and over 44k downloads show it's well-liked
- Fills a real gap by improving textures for weapons that lack proper retextures
- Lightweight cosmetic tweak that doesn't overhaul the game's look
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021 — may not be compatible with the latest game version
- Only covers a limited set of weapons, not a comprehensive overhaul
For players who want subtle visual improvements to underappreciated weapons without changing the game's overall aesthetic. If you're looking for a full weapon retexture pack, this isn't it — but if you want to polish up neglected gear, it's worth a look.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check the mod's file structure to see if it's a simple drop-in or requires manual placement in your Data folder.
- Since it's from 2021, verify compatibility with your current game version before installing.
