PENIS carved in rock in Vault 106. Pics attached

I went to the spot ingame and TCL'd to get closer. I think it's just an odd placement of the lighting, because up close without glaring through the window it's much harder (unfortunate pun) to see. In fact, unless you're at the perfect angle, you can't even see where it's supposed to be.

I took a couple of screenshots but my resolution is huge and would break the forum frame.

The forum will resize it, but you could also post it at photobucket and then link the thumbnail here.

 

At least put it to rest. I really think this is nothing more then overactive hormones and imaginations.

I still don't see %&$!. (*ducks and runs from the pun police*)

I looked at the textures for the cave wall and the normal map, hoping to see some "penis" shaped hightlights, but none were found, sorry. It did seem like it was more a a light reflection effect than a true colorized effect.

 

I must question what you mean by 'light effect'. There may be a loss in translation here, as the colour, and the brightness of the cellphone camera flash is why it may appear 'light' and blue to you, it couldn't be helped all unless I used a better Camera which I don't have laying around, which is why it's better to look in-game yourself. Don't get me wrong though, I can see from your point of view, I just thought I'd explain what I said just in case we're not on the same page.

 

Also, to keep us on the same page, what I mean by the whole "penis" thing, is that it is a written word, it is not a shape of a penis, in case you might be wondering.

 

Anyway, lol at this whole thing. Everyone has mixed opinions here which is interesting.

 

I did see what you were referring to with respect the the "word" and not the shape. I took the liberty of extracting the actual textures for that piece and looked at its "normal map" as well. The normal map is used to give a texture the look and feel of 3 dimensions when in fact it is only a 2D painting, if you will. There is also something called a glow map which can produce the effect of emitting light from the painting. I looked at all of this just in case some of the underlying texture files were allowing for the reflection of light (from your pipboy or just the lights in the cell) in a pattern of the "word" we have been talking about. But I saw nothing and consider it a coincidence.

Been staring at it for about 5 minutes. I don't see IT. Something must be wrong with my brain.

 

 

I dont think there is anything wrong with your brain, but it looks as if it's just the reflection that makes the word penis, and even then its really hard to see it...
