Pipboy Item Descriptions Mod v1.93

This is a mod intended to add descriptions to the various Pipboy item images in Fallout 3. This mod was created with Pipboy
Descriptions Generator created by Harmattan aka DonQuiche. This mod was also heavily inspired by Fallout 3 Item Descriptions
mod by Mikael Grizzly. Unlike Mikael Grizzly's mod, these pipboy images are smaller and the text uses the JH_Fallout font from
Van Buren (also included in this package). The text is also to the right and wraps around beneath the image. This mod was
created with the MTUI UI mod in mind but it may work with other UI mods. This is a work in progress and is not 100% complete,
so bear with me.Enjoy!

Install:

Copy and paste the "Textures" folder to your "Bethesda Softworks\Fallout3\Data\" directory. If the textures do not appear
in-game, you may need to install the JH_Fallout font. It can be installed by right-clicking JH_Fallout and selecting install or by
copying and pasting JH_Fallout to C:\Windows\Fonts.

Uninstall: Delete from your Data folder.


Bugs/issues:
Only works with English versions of Fallout 3 but you can change the Pipboy descriptions yourself with Pipboy Description
Generator.
