Modder Painstaking Rick continues to optimize Fallout games. He previously released his own 4K texture pack for Fallout 4 – it weighed 41 GB and, according to the author, makes the title run at the same frame rate as the vanilla version without the official HD add-on.
Now Painstaking Rick got to Fallout 76 and released three sets at once, changing all 70,513 textures of the game. First intended for weak computers suffering from frame rate drops and stuttering. It weighs 29 GB, and the description says that users are waiting for “1K or 2K large object textures, the vast majority reduced to 512”.
Second option designed for those who run Fallout 76 on medium, but wants to play on high settings. This pack adds 4K textures for large objects and 2K for everything else and weighs in at 104.5 GB.
And finally last set weighs 145 GB and offers 4K textures for all objects. More precisely, he suggested it, because a couple of days after the release, the author for some reason hid it, leaving only the two previous options.
Also, Painstaking Rick hasn’t posted comparison screenshots for any of the packs, so gamers will have to blindly download hundreds of gigabytes.
Fallout 76 available on PC and consoles.
