Frag grenade explodes,

The naval gun exploded,

Bird explosion

Contains a small plug-in with ESL tags that only corrects the direction of VTOL explosions. There are no custom additional nodes.

Install:

FOMOD installer. It is safe to install/uninstall mid-game. No DLC required.

You no longer need better Pulse Grenade Explosion or Freeze Grenade Explosion new visual effects to play. All included!

I recommend increasing the number of particles the game can handle. Recommended: 3000+ Default: 750

(example seen in fallout4prefs.ini)

[particles]

iMaxDesired=3000

Many thanks to them!

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.
