Modder ‘ZPASCALIONZ’ has released a must-have mod for Fallout 4. This mod, called FO4FI HD Series (HD 2K Faces), overhauls the faces of all NPCs for the main game and all of its DLCs.
Going into more details, Fallout 4 features 1,452 NPCs in total. And, by using FACEGEN, the modder has improved each and every one of them. As ZPASCALIONZ noted, he did not simply upscale the vanilla textures. Instead, he went the extra mile and improved numerous small details (as well as the textures themselves).
You can go ahead and download the mod from this link. In its zipped form, the mod is around 15GB in size. Also note that any ESP that affects the NPC cancels the changes and returns the textures to those in the archives of the original game. So, make sure to avoid such ESPs with this mod.
Now it would have been cool if the modder shared a Before/After video comparison. Sadly, though, there isn’t one for this mod. Still, I’ve included some screenshots which can give you an idea of what you can expect from it.
If you are into Fallout 4, you might be interested in these other mods for it. For instance, there is a LOD mod that reduces distant objects/shadows/textures pop-ins. Then we have the Disk Cache Enabler Mod. There’s also a mod that adds ragdoll physics and collisions to dead bodies. Another amazing mod is this one that fixes the game’s long loading times. DirectHit is a mod that overhauls the AI of enemies. And let’s not forget this mod that adds real locational damage to all enemies. You can also download an 8K Texture Pack, or this 41GB 4K Texture Pack which optimizes all 40,962 textures. Finally, there is a mod that adds support for NVIDIA DLSS 2, AMD FSR 2 and Intel XeSS. Oh, and there’s a mod that adds AMD FSR 3.0 Frame Generation to the game.
Let’s also not forget the DLC-sized expansion mods that you can get for F4. Fallout New Vegas Remake in Fallout 4 is an unreleased mod that we’re really looking forward to. Then we have Fallout: Miami. America Rising 2 is another fan DLC/expansion mod that integrated the Enclave faction into the main story with 24 main quests. Caves Of The Commonwealth is another fan expansion that adds 2-5 hours of new gameplay content. Let’s also not forget Fallout London which looks promising. You can also download Sim Settlements 2 – Chapter 3, Whispering Hills which is a cool Silent Hill mod, and The Wilderness Mod. You can also download a new horror quest mod that is inspired by Lovecraft, Resident Evil and Dead Space. Last month, we also shared another quest mod for it. Oh, and the Mass Effect Evolution Mod is once again available for download.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
