About this mod

This changes the Vortex theme to look like a Pip-Boy screen of the Green variety, like in Fallout 3.

There's not a whole lot of themes, so I thought I'd mess around with CSS for a bit (2.0.0 update: lot longer :D) to get Vortex looking like my favorite game to mess around with mods in.

Let me know if anything needs updating or if you have an idea for a theme, and endorse if you like it!

Setup

To install:
Method 1: Use the Vortex button, and install (From "Downloads" if no popup), restart Vortex.
Method 2: Alternatively manually download and drop the zipped file where it says to in Vortex Extensions tab.

If neither work make sure these are up-to-date:
Vortex - 'Settings > Vortex > Update' should NOT say "No automatic updates".
Browse Extensions list - Press the refresh button on the bottom before installing.

Activate in Vortex by going to:
Settings > Theme > Theme Dropdown > PipBoy Theme


FAQ

Why am I not seeing Vault Boy?!:
He hides when you're offline! Wait how did you get to this page while having that issue?

Can I disable the "Get more mods" button?
Yes! Use Remove Get More Mods Button by Glaceon575.

Can you use a more reactive web-like cursor?
With Theme Snippets you can, and it also can disable the "Get more mods" button, but you'll have to disable the custom cursor.

Customization

Is there something you'd like just slightly different? Well your eyes have travelled to just the right spot!
Thanks to my new and improved combo of custom files you can do exactly that!

Just use these with ease:
customChanges.scss - Enable disable or edit features
myVariables.scss - Swap an image or font
Or for more in-depth customization:
style.scss

What you can change:
  • Special Font used for some sections.
  • Custom cursor.
  • Image on the top bar - comes with a rad alternative vault-tec icon!
  • Images for the hovered/un-hovered side bar.
  • The background scanline animation. (more on that below)
  • Enable a border around buttons. (Try it and see if you like it)

To change any image:
Replace the image URL with your own custom image using a Base 64, regular image link, or full file path.

To remove or change speed of the animated scanline:
Ctrl+F for "animation:wave 1s infinite ease-in-out;" and comment it out by adding a '//' at the beginning of the line, or change '1s' to whatever speed you like.
(s = seconds)

How to comment or uncomment:
// <-- This comments a line when at the front of it, you can delete that to uncomment it too.
/* <-- This is for when you want to comment out a whole section (Better then leaving brackets empty) --> */
