   1. INTRODUCTION
   ===============
   For as much green glowing wads of plasma it shoots out, the Plasma Gun itself doesn't glow much. There are a few green bits, but... no glow. This mod rectifies this glaring oversight.
   ==========
   2. DETAILS
   ==========
   Glowmaps and enviro-cube maps appear to be mutually exclusive since Skyrim's NIF format, which is perplexing because it's a step backwards from FO3/NV's. I had to separate out the glowing bits and also make a third set of glassy reflective parts.
   Additionally, I tried to make the ports emit a light cone with a gobo to simulate the three port holes, but it seems that gobos don't work on light addon nodes attached to weapon meshes. Shame...
   ===============
   3. INSTALLATION
   ===============
   This is an module-less mod, solely comprised of loose asset files. Install into your Data folder.
   
   ==================
   4. ADDITIONAL INFO
   ==================
   For those who may be wondering where the unusually short "sniper" barrel on the screenshot plasma gun is from, it is another of my mods: Plasma Carbine Barrel (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/22679). Essentially, it is the missing step betwen the short "barrel" and "sniper" barrel for semi-auto fire, for those who want a better mid-range plasma gun.

   Power Armor Frame Core Socket Hole Fix

   POWER ARMOR FRAME CORE SOCKET FIX
   ====================================

   1. INTRODUCTION
   ===============
   When the BGS modelers made the Power Armor frame, they probably thought they were saving a bit on the polycount when they omitted filling in the back of the fusion core socket.
   Unfortunately, you look straight down the socket whenever you pop in a fusion core to power up a frame. You end up seeing the back side of the chest frame when you do. No socket
   prongs that plug into the fusion core, not even just a dark cavity. Straight through.
   This mod corrects that with a simple darkened cavity and a proper cap at the back of the socket.
   ==========
   2. DETAILS
   ==========
   As stated, the fusion core socket is filled in with a cover on the back end so you don't see straight through. Vertex coloration ensures that it looks like a darkened nook that light can't easily get into.
   ===============
   3. INSTALLATION
   ===============
   This is an ESP-less replacer, so just plop straight into your Data folder. I only foresee one overwrite; concerning power armor frame material bugs. This is based off the fix for that used in UFO4P, and won't interfere.
