High resolution, more detailed textures for Pip-boy 2500 http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/16836

Attention! There isn't an esp, if you want Pip-boy 2500 you have to download it!
Installation:
============
1.Download and install Pip-boy 2500 from there: http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/16836
2.Extract the mod folders named "Textures" and "Meshes" to (install folder)\Fallout 3\Data. Overwrite files when asked.
2.1.(Optional) Install version 1.2.1 after main file 1.2 if you want to get dull body of your device.
3.I highly recommend to make this changes in the Fallout.ini in "My Documents\My Games\Fallout 3":
Section [Pipboy]:
fScanlineScalePipboy=0
bEnableFlickerPipboy=0
Section [InterfaceFX]:
fDefaultBurstDuration=1
fDefaultBurstIntensity=0
fMiniBurstDuration=1
fMiniBurstIntensity=0
fPulseBrightenIntensity=0
fPulseRadiusIntensity=0
fPulseRate=0
fVertHoldChance=0
fShudderChance=0
bEnableFlickerMenus=0
bEnableScanlinesMenus=0
bEnableScanlinesPipboy=0
fBlurRadiusMenus=0
bUseImageSpaceMenuFX=0
Section [Display]:
fPipboy1stPersonFOV=42
;Change this value (fPipboy1stPersonFOV) to your liking. Lower is closer, higher is further away. This value is a simple thing that lets to resize your pipboy and therefore also the text inside the pipboy. Personally I use fPipboy1stPersonFOV=39.8 for 1280*1024 so at now it's more visible and therefore better to read. But if you want to see the whole device on the screen change this value to at least 42.
4.If you use FOMM you have to go to the buttons at the top & select: Tools - Archive Invalidation.
And you have to also do this:
Go to "My Documents\My Games\Fallout 3" and open Fallout.ini.
Press Ctrl+F and find the line bInvalidateOlderFiles=0 and change it to bInvalidateOlderFiles=1
Save changes.
Or, download & activate ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated:
http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/944
NMM has a built in Archive Invalidation too. DON'T USE BOTH (FOMM/NMM's) METHODS TOGETHER.
Note: FOMM/NMM's version often needs to be toggled off & then back on again when you add in a new mod.
If you've ever modded your Fallout 3 game before this should not be new to you.
How to change a skin:
=====================
