Any way to make Pipboy bigger?
Is there anyway or mod maybe that will make the Pipboy larger? I can barely see it, it's causing a lot of eye strain for me.

right click while you have it open, until it goes bigger.

When you have the pipboy up, right click.
This should zoom it in, no mods or anything required. If it doesn't work the first time just try it a few more times, it's not always responsive.

Yeah, I know about that, but it barely makes it any bigger at all.

Sex and muscle size influence the pip boy distance from screen. Odd I know, but it seems to be true.

hows your eyesight? It seems fine to you because your eyes are used to it, I didnt know I needed glasses for 3 years until I found out But I had needed them whole time. You wont know if you need them.

Maybe thats it?

idk sorry if thats rude but yeah it covers whole screen.

I'm playing at 2560x1440. It's no way near covering the entire screen, it's probably like 5% of the screen at best.

Not as good, but I'm not blind or anything. If it covered the whole screen I could see it, lol. I have a 27" monitor and it's only 2 ft in front of me. The Pipboy display is tiny for me, there's no way it's more than 5% of the entire screen. My eyesight at a distance is actually pretty good. I only need glasses for reading books, etc, that are closer up.

Hmm, maybe that's it. I started over again and I haven't even leveled up once. And I don't remember this being a problem at all before, so that may very well be it.

That seems pretty close if the screen is right there.

The female or very skinny arm male holds it out further than a full muscled male.

You are pressing TAB?

Sorry if that sounds stupid but just wondering as in my game it simply overwhelms the entire view once I hit that button.

It's not a vision problem. I don't have any problem reading text on web sites or anything like that. What I'm trying to say is that the Pipboy is tiny and the text is not too clear as it is. I don't know what's happened, just lookin for a way to make it bigger.

Is your arm not muscular? Are you female?
