Eye normal map repair Fallout 4 Edition
Characters saved in the first screenshot:
Akira saves game files.
Characters in Second Shot:
Alternate Start Ghoul Kristen saves game files.
New high contrast version:
There is a new high-contrast version in the "Optional Files" section. It overwrites the main file with a file that adds more depth.
If you downloaded the first version, try the newer 1b moderator file or the high contrast version. It will alleviate the banding on the footage that occurs on some systems.
Bethesda tried to copy my corrections to the Skyrim eye normal maps, but didn't get them right, or say enough to make them really stand out. So I rebuilt them.
This will make the contrast between the sclera and iris more dramatic. The changes will be subtle for the 1b and slightly enhanced for the high-contrast version. Best of all, it also eliminates contact lens halo caused by the vanilla texture on most custom eyes.
I don't own Fallout 4 yet, so testing was limited to scanning the files I needed from my roommate's computer and then tinkering with them to take screenshots after fixing them.
If this is the first texture you downloaded and installed, go to your Documents folder and open My Games, then Fallout 4.
Open the Fallout 4 ini file and find this line:
sResourceDataDirsFinal * STRINGS \
and add the following so it reads:
sResourceDataDirsFinal * STRINGS \，TEXTURES \
Highly recommended, but not required:
Beautiful radiant version of the eye
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
