Encountered a bug with the NC4S version, dunno if it's on the other ones. When picking cards for my deck before play it looks normal, but once you start playing your cards return to the tops textures, sometimes flashing back and forth between the two
That has nothing to do with this mod. This changes lists only.
The game of caravan is animated with a nif file. That file has the Tops back textures as the default in the nif, which the game overrides on the fly with the textures from the cards in your deck. And it isn't perfect about that. That problem existed before I ever started this mod.
Normally in the regular game the texture changes are continuous. For example, a Nuka Cola Quantum is a retexture of the standard Nuka Cola, but each instance of a Quantum is always a Quantum, so the game engine can hold it steady. In caravan, the cards change with each draw and play, and the game engine kinda fakes card changes by retexturing the cards that are already on screen. And that change is sometimes visible to the player.
Worked great, thanks! Tested with the 'Common Caravan Deck NC4S' Last weekend I started a new playthrough and I really wondered about the complete deck from The Tops Casino. I totally agree with Soukey, this is strange. I thought it could be a fix for this somewhere available but was too lazy to search. Today I saw this mod under the latest files and it came just in time for me.

A plain and simple little gem.
