★About★

This is an F4SE plugin that allows you to disable hard-coded view occlusion shader effects on different workbenches. Now you can actually see what you're making!

In addition to disabling highlighting completely, this plugin also allows you to change the highlight type of the Power Armor Workbench and Robot Workbench to an outline shader only, rather than a full shader.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
