About this mod
Removes transparency from the power armor HUD, because IMMERSION!
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
Fallout4VR - Main.ba2
Fallout4VR - Textures.ba2
Install:
1) Get B.A.E - Bethesda Archive Extractor and make yourself familiar with it.
1b) Optional Step: Make a Backup copy of your Fallout 4 VR folder.
2) Create a working folder for your extracted files. Extract Fallout4VR - Main.ba2 and Fallout4VR - Textures.ba2 into that folder.
3) Copy extracted folders (Materials, Meshes,Scripts,Textures) to Fallout 4 VR's Data folder. If permission to overwrite is asked you probably have installed a mod that changes some of the files, saying don't overwrite here could be a good idea, or you will have to install that previous mod again. (I bet it was Full Dialog VR)
4) Now rename Fallout4VR - Main.ba2 and Fallout4VR - Textures.ba2 to for example: reFallout4VR - Main.ba2 and reFallout4VR - Textures.ba2 (or 7zip them or move them out of the folder. but don't loose them, in case you're gonna need them someday.)
5) This would be a good time to test that the game still runs :)
6) If the game runs then you can extract this mod into your Fallout 4 VR Data folder and replace PAVRHelmet.nif and PADash05.dds
7) Open the game again and try out your new IMMERSIVE Power Armor HUD.
Nevermind that, you should try this one first:
Edit your Fallout4Custom.ini's archive section to look like this:
[Archive]
bInvalidateOlderFiles=1
sResourceDataDirsFinal=
sVRResourceStartUpArchiveList=
sVRResourceIndexFileList=
sResourceStartUpArchiveList=Fallout4 - Startup.ba2, Fallout4 - Shaders.ba2, Fallout4 - Interface.ba2, Fallout4_VR - Shaders.ba2
sResourceIndexFileList=Fallout4 - Textures1.ba2, Fallout4 - Textures2.ba2, Fallout4 - Textures3.ba2, Fallout4 - Textures4.ba2, Fallout4 - Textures5.ba2, Fallout4 - Textures6.ba2, Fallout4 - Textures7.ba2, Fallout4 - Textures8.ba2, Fallout4 - Textures9.ba2, Fallout4_VR - Main.ba2, Fallout4_VR - Textures.ba2
Also add *Fallout4_VR.esm to your plugins.txt This is important.
Now you are ready to install the mod any way you like.
Bonus round:
Download Fallout 4 VR Config Tool by Bilago and study about .ini tweaks.
These are pretty nice settings. Most magical of numbers may be scale which makes the helmet much more cramped and realistic.
