📋 About This Mod

2024 update : this still works but I would highly recommend Pip-Boy 2500 DEFINITIVE instead which includes not only my mod but better textures and other stuff. This mod here still works and is a simpler, out-of-the-box version if you prefer that:)

Pretty straightforward mod. I originally made this for Pip-boy 2500A "Glowing tubes edition" in mind because I believe it's the one that looks best, but made it work without the glowing tubes mod too. I made them so it looks like the original paint glows in the dark.

~~ Changelog ~~

Version 1. 1: everything in one big FOMOD for convenience and easy reinstallation.

Version 1. 0: four base versions

~~ Versions ~~

4 different versions:

2 for Pip-boy 2500A 'Glowing tubes edition' - only glowing letters OR glowing letters and logo in the top-left corner of the pip-boy.

2 for Pip-boy 2500A - The arm mounted pip-boy AKA the base version without the glowing tubes. Same thing, one version with only glowing letters OR glowing letters and logo in the top-left corner of the pip-boy.

See the pictures provided to choose which one suits you best.

~~ Compatibility ~~

Made with fallout 3 and New vegas, compatible for TTW

Works 100% with Pip-boy 2500 - Handeld pip-boy. Thanks to mclovin1223 for testing it out

INCOMPATIBLE with any mod that changes the text font and/or location, such as PM's HD Pip-Boy 2500 - Minimod ... for now

-> An awesome patch has been made here thanks to guirigeez : PM's HD Pip-Boy 2500 - Glowing Tubes and letters Patches

~~ Installation ~~

Download your version of choice and overwrite everything. It's just one simple texture file, so no other incompatibilities possible.

~~ Credits ~~
