About this mod

A request mod by DarkSoulDuck to fix the bright shine of the Pimp Boy.

Permissions and credits
Ever notice how bright the Pimp Boy 3 Billion gets when you take it up and it reflects all the light around it in to your face similar to this http://youtu.be/XJrl3iUG9dc?t=7s Well go blind no longer as all Pimp Boys have been sand-blasted to fix the eye and face cooking problem.

Anyway, this was a rather easy fix once I figured out what was going on. At first, I thought it was something with the normal map, as it is kinda unique-ish compared to other normal maps and produces a lot of shimmer shines, but what was really going on was that the glossy material property for the Pimp Boy on the mesh was turned all the way up (for comparison the regular Pip-Boy has its gloss set to 70, but the Pimp Boy was set at 10). So basically the Pimp Boy was like a magnifying glass for light in-game because of the ultra gloss and it's super shiny normal acting in conjunction with one another. 2x the shine, all the blind. So all I did was turn down the gloss to a reasonable number and it worked perfectly.

==Compatibility==
Will definitely overwrite any other mods you have for the Pimp Boy that replaces the model.

==Notes==
Replaces both male and female models.

==Install==
Drag and drop the folder and esp into the data folder and tick the esp with whatever you use. Should work fine.

==Issues==
None that I've encountered, but please leave a comment if you run into any.

==Request==
DarkSoulDark for the request to be done.
