📋 About This Mod
What's new?
New diffuse from upscaled vanilla texture with manual editing (I tried making it from scratch and was not happy with the results) and additions from sourced PBR materials. New normal run from the texture. New environment map and specular.
PBR compatibility out of the box.
NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MODS THAT COVER THE SAME THING

For Fallout: New Vegas players who care about visual polish and cringe every time they see those ugly reflectors. Skip if you want gameplay overhauls or if you rarely visit Helios One.
