About this mod
Recreates the Boomers face paint from concept art to give them a more "tribal" look.
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
In short, concept art for New Vegas showed the Boomers with a slightly
wilder look, featuring messier hair, and prominently, face paint. So like LARP, I thought to try and bring the game closer to said art. And all it took was creating only a total of 48 custom races!
I initially wanted to do a fuller overhaul, but I figured not everyone would be into it, or would want parts of it separate, so I'll do it some
other time, using this as a base.
Potential Issues
As this required the process of swapping out the race of each generic and named Boomer character in-game, it WILL have a lot of incompatibilities with other mods that edit those same records.
I tried my best with making some patches for things I already use, but I can't guarantee they're the best. If you make one, or know to improve them, do let me know.
Most of the screenshots have been taken through various iterations of the changes, so some may not correspond 1:1, but you probably wouldn't have noticed this if I didn't point it out.
Also, I might've possibly missed some NPCs? That's not a guarantee, but if I did, again, let me know.
Also also, any mod that adds new Boomers needs to be patched. I'll have one for NV Interiors soon enough.
Incompatibilities
Any skin texture mod. All of them, as this uses vanilla textures as a base.
I will try to make a patch for Character Kit Remake but that'll be the extent of it.
I did however pack in the individual face paints as a resource file, that you may use for your own patches or projects.
Credits
Bethesda for the original textures, I guess. As this was primarily my own work, I don't have any resources I used.
So instead I'll give credit to people from the TTW Discord and their suggestions for titles that went unused!
