About this mod

Adds lighting to billboards and bus stops all across Appalachia, with a custom screen for bus stops and a custom mesh for all the billboards and fixing the tall ones.
This is not a mod for those with weaker systems, will see if I can't adjust performance in a future update.
An optional version for those who only want the bus stops is avai

Adds lighting to most billboards in the game and bus stops.
Heavily inspired by Illuminated Billboards for Fo4 in concept and in me figuring out how he created it in Fo4 and then me recreating it in Fo76(No assets used from his mod)
I also got some help from Rigell who found me a guide on how to use material editor and making textures glow which you can find here.

This is in no way a finished product and I'm planning to add more billboards to the mix, and possibly(very likely) reduce the lightning effect since it's very bright right now(This isn't a mod made by JJ Abrams I swear).


In the future I'm planning to add lighting to the diner, turn on all street lamps, add lighting to signs and if possible add seasons to the game(in the form of retextures).
I can also upon request add lighting to the camp billboards since I know where they are in the files but didn't want to add ATX items to this mod.

Update 1.0
Added new mesh for billboards and custom textures logo and lighting to them.
Added the smaller billboards and glow maps for most billboards and two custom billboards I made myself.
Changed two billboards for lore reasons(this isn't boston so why would they advertise for mass fusion bethesda)
Replaced all the broken large billboards in game with the repaired version and added lights to the little lamps attached to them.
Tried adjusting lighting etc on the billboards but is still not 100% happy with the result.

2a. If you've just created the .ini file, you need to open it and input this string in it: [Archive]
3. Find sResourceArchive2List = line under the [Archive] section of your Fallout76Custom.ini or type it down if there is no such line.
