Easily editable comics, books and perk posters.
Version 1.1
By Steven Mannion

I made this so that I could create my own custom comics or themed sets, but in a way that doesn't break the immersion in the game,
or mean I have to fully edit the covers each time I want to try new artwork.

All of the folders and filenames have the same structure as those in the game, so nothing needs to be changed. Simply save the files as .DDS then copy the texture folder to:
(YOURSTEAMLIBRARY)\common\Fallout 4\Data

Each item has (close to) the original title and damage in place, but all images have been removed and replaced with a transparent layer.

For old paper images, a semi-transparent layer has been used, so dirt will still show up over whichever image you use.

All you need to do is add your own image to the empty layer and save the file. I have uploaded images to illustrate the process.

Thumbnail images are included, one image per title, just to give an idea of how they look.

There are two copies of each comic, one hi-res and one low-res
in their corresponding folders. You need to edit both, or just reduce the hires-file by 50% and save it over the low-res copy.

The resolution of this set is double the original image size.
If you have a slower system/less VRAM - I would reccommend
reducing the size of the images to their original size.

Open the file you want to edit using your preferred editor
(Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, GIMP, etc.)

Add the image you want to use and save as .DDS
