📋 About This Mod



Peripheral Scope Reticle Overhaul or PSRO for short, is a texture and mesh overhaul from scratch of the vanilla scope model crosshairs with the removed borders or adjusted peripheral backgrounds to meet the standards from modern games and love. Heavily inspired by another mod on the Nexus, Peripheral Vision, a mod that just removed the black borders or scope backgrounds from the meshes and cropped the scope textures.

All the vanilla scopes had one particular issue. They were all off-centered and uneven due to them being low resolution and being reused from Fallout 3. I redid every scope with pixel perfect alignments, redrew, repainted and while still being in boundary as a normal vanilla scope but scaled them all down a bit smaller. Also remaining the same resolution and now each uniquely masked mesh for each scope.
