This mod enables you to remove the screen glare, scan lines, distortion effects, and map tinting from your pipboy screen. It also allows you to adjust the glow intensity of your map.

Permissions and credits


Ya know, mama always told me noting screams two cap whore from the Atomic Wrangler quicker than a dirty pipboy screen. You always seem to forget these kinds of things after being shot in the head. Luckily as I was perched on the roof of the Prospector Saloon, taking care of the good folk of Goodsprings for my good pal Joe Cobb, that little gem came back to me.

When the dust settled, I hopped down and tore off a piece of that god awful dress Miss Trudy was wearing. Well let me tell ya, that pipboy screen started shinning right up! I figured I would show y'all how to do the same. Minus the all the carnage mind you ... unless you really want to, I'm off to Primm next!
