I'm gonna be honest, I might be the only person who actually really liked the green tint.

[puskinas]

Completely kills atmosphere! All those mods make game bright, but less atmospheric.

Nah bro if the game dont look like piss it aint fallout.

A Fallout 3 remaster is totally necessary due to the performance and optimization issues that plague this game on PC, not to mention the thousands of issues which were only ever fixed by the “Unofficial Patch” on the Nexus. Hell, FO3 sometimes just doesn’t work for a bunch of modern systems which is pretty rare among 16 year old games

In my personal opinion the Green tint adds so much to the atmosphere of the game

[dharkbizkit]

i cant and refuse to believe, that its been 16 years since i first played fallout 3. I still remember my first time playing it very vividly.. oh 2008, what a great year. i had a year off, finished "work school" and got my degree, had a year untill my job started, bought a new pc, moved together with my girlfriend and spend so much time on Lotro and fallout 3

Removing the green tint from F03 is like removing the peanut butter from a reeses, never understood why you'd get rid of something immersive that truly makes the game feel like you're in a true radioactive apocalypse.

I just don't get why people think deleting the whole style, like the slightly yellowish tint from Fallout, looks better in any form.
The yellowish tint wasn't just a visual element; it was a crucial part of the game's vibe. Its removal not only makes the game look bland but also strips away a significant part of the setting conveyed by the game design, creating a contrast from a once vibrant world to a dystopian wasteland.
While sure if we consider time passed after the bombs dropped, the area would not be as dramatic in a yellowish tint.
It's equivalent to saying hey, let's turn on all the lights in dark settings of a horror movie.

Also, removing all sorts of tint and shade results in every part of the game being bright and clear, as seen in the before/after video.
This enhances the focus on lower-quality textures. The benefit of styles like Fallout is that they fade the focus of the eye on things.

Is it realistic having a tint? Absolutely not. But so aren't ghouls, molerats, any sort of mutated lifeform, being able to just radaway heavily radiated conditions.
Sure, it's a "preference, " but the true beauty in improving graphics is the mastery of enhancing the vanilla because you want to improve the given experience.

It looked way better in the before picture in that intro anyway.

Can always appreciate a well curated modlist. Great work dude :)

[myriad]

great list! I would suggest mod organizer over vortex though. Vortex gives me a headache when the mod list gets lengthy

13:30 Please make an updated version! I was fixing to follow that 2022 video to a "T" until you said something about Epic Games, as to the significance of that I have no clue, but hopefully that nearly 3 year old video will do the trick? I've never modded a game before on PC. I know I can't be the only one out there. A new refreshed video on the subject would do some good. You know for a short while Fallout 3 was being given away for free on GOG through your Amazon Prime subscription. Many people got Fallout 3 for free that way back in April/May of this year. Not to mention the individuals that paid for it but it's just been sitting in their library waiting to be played, I'm not going to speak for anyone but myself so I'm just gonna ask, just like you asked us to in this video, please make a newer video about how to mod Fallout 3 in 2024?... I'm a beginner, I need help. Thanks.

[Stig]

I love that you show alternatives. I also started doing that when sharing my modlists, cause there's alot of cool stuff out there.

[AyoKeyloGaming]

TTW, viva new Vegas, salamander guide, and NV reloaded if you can run it. There u go

[jennycat]

Removing the green tint is like removing the classic blue / orange sky from San Andreas.




I have this mod anyway.

[brandonmurphy]

Tbh I never noticed the green tint growing up until I seen people talk about it on the internet. Never bothered me afterwards either adds a depressing feeling to setting.

Fallout Street Lights makes D.C look so much better at night, D.C has a working power grid that for some reason is still operational 200+ years after the region was decimated by the bombs, so it’s not out of the realm of possibility that some street lights would be working.

[JoeKnowsWorst]

it’s necessary for consoles and simpletons like me who even if I had a good PC, installing mods would frustrate me 😂

[Iarbarian]

A remaster is necessary for console players.

[DRUNKalpaca]

If your going to mod FO3 it should to be through Tale of Two Wastelands! There’s so many more mods available and people are still creating mods for TTW almost every day! Btw don’t use Vortex! Use Mod Organizer 2!
