1. DESCRIPTION
===============

This mod replaces over 40 loading screens with the best suiting images I could find. Everything is wallpaper type material. Clean, high resolution screenshots with no HUD's or any text on screen. No skimpy imagery. The goal is maximum visual quality combined with lore.

The mod only replaces the .dds files without using an .esp therefore should be compatible with everything else.

Two options are available:
  • LoadingScreensReplacerHD(High Definition 1920x1080)
  • LoadingScreensReplacer(1280x720)

CREDITS
==========

The 16:9 ratio that I'm forced to use on New Vegas does absolutely no justice to the original work.
