📋 About This Mod

Hi everyone!

I know, there are several other garlic replacers here on the Nexus, but this one's been sitting on my HDD for a while, so I thought I'd finally finish it and share it with you.

It can be used as a straight garlic and braid replacer or, with Base Object Swapper, has eight different variations that will harvest in different ways when activated. There are also versions which harvest with a single bulb removed (which is true to what you receive) or with the more traditional multiple garlic bulbs removed to indicate that the braid has been harvested.

Install and overwrite when asked. If you use my mod, Diverse Foods, you may be asked to overwrite some textures. That's all cool, they're the same textures.

As this is a mesh and texture replacer, you can install it, check it out, and uninstall at any point without any harm for your save.

Credits: The garlic bulb was originally created by Alexander Kamlowsky AKA Meerschaum Digital and is used in accordance with a Creative Commons Attribution license. I decimated the model in Blender and converted it to work in Skyrim. I also edited Alexander's textures. Full credit to them for the original.

The mod also uses an edited normal map originally created by wSkeever. This map is used in accordance with a CC Attribution License, too.

Many thanks to both authors for allowing their work to be used by other modders.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 719 endorsements and over 100k downloads
  • Works with both BOS and Model Swapper, so you can pick your preferred framework
  • Simple mesh and texture replacer—no gameplay changes, just better-looking garlic

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires either BOS or Model Swapper, so you'll need to install one of those first
  • Only affects garlic braids and garlic—if you're looking for broader food overhauls, this won't cover them
  • Potential conflicts with other mods that alter the same garlic meshes or textures
🎯 Is This For You?
For Fallout 4 settlement builders and roleplayers who want more visual variety in their kitchen props. If you're tired of the same old garlic braids and want a quick, lightweight upgrade, this is for you. Skip if you don't care about food details or if you're not using BOS or Model Swapper.

  • Make sure you have either BOS or Model Swapper installed before adding this mod, otherwise the replacer won't work.
  • Check the mod's file section for any optional patches or compatibility notes with other texture overhauls.
