Can anyone direct me to a blood mod that greatly DECREASES the amount of blood when someone is shot. I don`t mind the amount that pools, but there is far too much blood (even in default) when someone is hit.
is there a mod that makes the blood splash darker? When I shoot someone, like to the head, the splash of blood is so red its annoying .. on the ground thats nice, but the blood from the body should be darker too .. bright red from body, dark red on the ground
Blood isn't showing up for me, on every enemy. I'm using ENBoost, Optimized Textures, and my decals are set to medium. Any one of those messing with your mod?
I can say with confidence, this is due to the vanilla game. And the mods you've listed don't effect blood in any way.
You see, all this mod does is replace the vanilla textures, it doesn't alter when and where they are displayed at all. Therefore my textures appear whenever the vanilla game determines they should appear, and how they appear. There are some instances in the vanilla game that are a little buggy -with Dogmeat and Ghouls that I know of.
If you want a better combat experience -better detail, variety and reliability- I encourage you to consider Bloody Mess with Enhanced Blood Textures. It really is worth it, with or without my addon.
it really looks great ! <3 but i have a question. im not so into this whole modding thing and kinda new. is it normal that super mutant blood is now hmm disabled ?
when i hit them i see the impact blood but there is no blood on the ground / walls
did i something wrong or is this normal ?
dog meat has some blood but it is allways cut in half and quarish :x
That is strange, and thanks! This type of mod(texture replacer), without .esp is about as safe as it can be as it only changes what you see, but not why and when you see it. Also, texture replacers can be added and removed at any time and will never effect the game saves or game mechanics as they only change whats displayed. Its no different to putting on your black coat one day, then a green coat another day.
Certainly not normal with the super mutants. Its been tested, and I just tested again, and it is working fine on my system -Super Mutants do Bleed! It could be perhaps that the surface the texture appeared on was imperfect meshs(the physical structure)and the blood displayed below the surface. This happens from time to time in the Vanilla game. Also remember, if it bleeds, we can kill it!
The cutt-off blood texture is unfortunately the way the game engine works. As far as I can tell; sometimes the blood will display where there is a 'seam' or join between textures/meshes and the blood texture disappears at that seam. The only way I know to correct that is to use something like 'Enhanced Blood Textures' -which is all round generally very good mod, and I do a blood texture replacer file called 'Bloody Mess' for it too. Even then it doesn't fix the display issue 100% of cases. Yet!
I've not thought to test how it displays on Dog Meat, I will have to give it a go.
i just tested it on dog meat because my poor boy was the nearest bleeding being in the wasteland xD the super mutants i tested where near finch farm on this sattelite radio station dunno the name :x
it was hmm grass an rocky ground so maybe it was just the wrong place to test xD
and i cant imagine what i could have done wrong ^^ im new to this whole thing but not stupid and i got all mods run so far
i will test in city area and come back with my results
ty for this insane quick reply ! :o
*edit*
so i killed some other super mutants in other locations and year it was the ground or something its there and its looks good no square or riped of / cut in half splatters
but i needed the Better Fake Reflections mod to get rid off greish blood but thats nothing im too sad about xD because the vanilla reflection looked ugly anyway :o
but it seems that dog meats blood on the ground is allways cut or square (not that i intend to shoot my poor doggy :O ) but maybe something you can look into
More than likely you've done nothing wrong. Its just the limitations of computer games so large and complex, and not always being perfect. So long as you can see my blood textures at all, and they don't look totally 'wrong', then its installed correctly and will display anytime the vanilla blood would display.
Edit: Thanks for the update on Dog meat, I'll look into that asap!
Ah, yes. I see the issue with Dogmeat, I'll add it to the known issues. -I've read the same issue effects some Ghouls with the vanilla textures(someone created a mod to fix it). What seems to be happening is that Dogmeats blood texture displays only 25% of the complete texture. Presumably to reduce the amount of blood he spills because he's small. That results in his texture being cut-off. My best work around for this if it really bugs you, is use 'Enhanced Blood Textures' and my Bloody Mess Add-on. EBT itself is a great mod that just adds diversity to what you see.
it isnt realy such a big problem it was just a litle thing that i noticed :3 i i thought you might like to know. i personaly never would shoot my poor doggy :x but yea maybe someone else ?!
i tried first to install Enhanced Blood Textures because i saw your mod to this xD but then i saw these much files from the ebt mod and was confused :/
your stand alone mod was the easiest way to turn the ugly vanilla blood in something beautiful i realy wished i could handle the Enhanced Blood Textures mod with your addon then i would have both benefits ^^ your awesome textures and his mod
I'll screenshot if I see anything and get back to you.
Thank you for your mod! (:
EDIT: The body blood squares are not your mod, seeing as it is only on the body. I think it's probably CBBE, still need to see. Do you have any plans for more than that one pattern? I really like your first one!
I do have plans for more patterns and creature blood...I have a great idea for alien and glowing blood! -I'm also open to suggestions when I can find the time to fit it all in

Ha, I understood that reference!
Edit: Great mod, btw! Huge improvement over vanilla, imho.
so its a win win situation xD i have more variation in the pattern but your stunning blood textures
anyway keep up the good work !
ps nice looking lovers bed you made
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by 'blood squares' tbh.
Thank you for your mod! (:
