📋 About This Mod
Higher poly, high resolution texture redesigns of the Powder Ganger outfits, with a faithful style and more realistic design.
The Powder Gangers are a vital part of Fallout New Vegas, a faction with multiple mission arcs and a great design aesthetic, but unfortunately I feel their outfits don't quite live up to that style. If you agree, this mod may be for you; it provides a higher poly redesign of the Powder Ganger aesthetic, covering all outfits and trying to keep to the same core aesthetic while giving a more modern polish to the models.
All outfits set up for NPC and Courier use, with full dismemberment, and all female versions included, which of course no-one will ever use.
Polycounts are in the 15k range, with multiple 2k textures per mesh, so this is probably not ideal for those with the weakest systems.
Includes a small script to allow for a fourth female design, as originally the Simple and Soldier variants were identical. Otherwise, straight model replacements, no ESP required, and should be no conflicts unless you have another Powder Ganger outfit replacer.
Install in the usual manner, with a mod manager or manually.
UPDATE v1. 1 - Fixed wrist seam gaps
REQUIREMENTS
Standard script extenders for the female outfit script patch:
JIP LN NVSE Plugin
JohnnyGuitar NVSE
Requirement for TYPE4 - Body and Armors as standard, but a vanilla female bodies patch is available.
CREDITS
Some elements for these outfits have been adapted from models designed by others from SketchFab, used with permission:
