cdcssca Posted November 25, 2024 Posted November 25, 2024 As for now this is my only problem left, whenever in a lesbian scene the strap on simply stays straight and doesnt align properly anybody know what could be causing this?

I'm on the current build and not downgraded. i have a few "game breaking" mods like the aer15 laser rifle, who knew really fast photons could make you ragdoll... but if a mod was hidden or deleted i skipped it and any patches it needed. but i am still at 254 mods after adding in a few i decided i loved and deleted many i couldn't like no matter how much i tried. Only thing i am actually having an issue on is the walls of goodneighbor are invisible, and several homes have invisible walls or outright missing floors. I'm assuming its the rebuild homes mod since its really only apparent in sanctuary, the movie theater and the one (can't remember the name) thats in the alley just past the bridge on the way to diamond city. Inside diamond city, have not been yet, been doing a ton of bounty work for the fens sheriff department rather than proceed on the main quest. piper is still arguing with danny about being let inside.. 2 weeks later..

Or its a build issue, but i don't think it is, run bodyslide and far right top see if "dildo" brings up any models. if it does, you can always pick the slider set and build them. (caution) if Aylis already built them you WILL overwrite them doing this. So be prepared to re-run EVERYTHING if all of a sudden breasts and butt don't mesh right with clothes. Some outfits like vtaw are really really tight and the body will peek through on the cheeks and arms and calves.

I'm currently have the same problems with the Gewehr 43 and Kar98k. I believe it's related to the Mauser ammo from Armament, as it seems to deal 0 damage. and also connected to RobCo Patcher, but I haven't figured it out yet. UPD: I fixed it by deleting the ini file in Armament - Ammunition and Ballistics Overhaul\F4SE\Plugins\RobCo_Patcher\weapon. Edited January 4, 2025 by Simpossible_xx 1
snuffyluffy Posted January 29, 2025 Posted January 29, 2025 Hi all. Thinking about returning to this guide for another FO4 run. Is it still being moderated? Is this list still functional?

You may need to skip those or search for updated/newer versions. You can still create a functional build by carefully selecting your mods. If you'll have any questions in progress, feel free to ask, I've just made a heavily modded build based on this guide and its really wonderful. Edited January 29, 2025 by Simpossible_xx

The only thing I don't like about the list is some of the weapon choices. I like a little more lore-friendly when it comes to weapons. If you have any advice on how to achieve that in this list, I'm all ears!

Don't worry my friend, I also don't like the idea of replacing weapons so I leaved all my vanilla weapons as is. But I also love firearms, so I added a lot of real life and lore friendly guns. You can install as many weapons as you want, they are standalone and don't conflict with any other mods. But each gun take an .esp slot so you can run into limits very fast. I think I'd probably make a big update soon with the completed list of mods.

I personally haven't played with these mods, and I'm not sure if they might cause any issues. Sim Settlements (2) is a large and complex mod that can significantly alter the game world, and Better Animations may require additional configuration in the Custom Camera menu and affect NPC animations. I'm cautious about using mods that I'm unfamiliar with and prefer to skip "risky" mods, but its just me. If you're interested in them and want to give them a try, go for it!

I have had both sim settlements 1 and 2 in effect brick my save, or at least make going any where near certain settlements crash the game outright, no matter how I approached them, either fast travelling to them or fast travelling close by then walking there, so I stopped using it, though that was quite some time ago, so it may well be an issue that was fixed or just specific to my mod list at the time.
Simpossible_xx Posted February 1, 2025 Posted February 1, 2025 (edited) Okay, now I've finally completed my mod build and found some time to share notes with the community. Some of my previous notes are on page 72. Focus of this guide: Heavily modded old gen Fallout 4 in 2025. Features enhanced vanilla FO4 experience with multiple improvements and overhauls, better textures, quality of life mods and just nice things. Yes, it includes multiple amount of sexual interactions and lewd stuff. I've been mostly skipping mods that are way too complicated, excessive or weird in my honest opinion, but feel free to install them for yourself. How to use this guide: follow Aylis' guide and pay attention to my notes, as I'll say which mods you might need to skip, add or configure. If you have any questions - please ask. Legend: ■ Mandatory ■ Configuration required ■ Optional ■ Notes ■ Bodyslide ■ Skipped VERY IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE THAT YOU DOWNLOAD THE CORRECT VERSION OF FILES COMPATIBLE WITH GAME VERSION 1.10.163. BE ESPECIALLY CAREFUL WITH MODS FROM THE F4SE CATEGORY OR FRAMEWORKS, AS INCOMPATIBILITY CAN AND WILL LEAD TO CRASHES AND BROKEN MODS! Preparation: Downgrade your Fallout version - follow instructions here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3232095313 While it is downgrading, read these articles: Mods to Avoid & Tools to Avoid Preinstallation Spoiler Collective Modding Toolkit Extremely useful tool to check compatibility of all your mods/archives, track all limits, scan for possible errors and more. F4SE Spoiler Baka ScrapHeap - Script Memory Limit Expander Change ScrapHeapMult to 4 in BakaScrapHeap.toml (right click on the installed mod in MO2 and select "Open in explorer") Source - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/articles/3115 Better Console - F4SE Kinda useful for debugging Garden of Eden Papyrus Script Extender Required for the adult mod Wasteland Eggspansion SUP F4SE Required for the adult mod Unhealthy Craving (and some other adult mod too, forgot its name ><) Unlimited Survival Mod - F4SE Very useful config. Set Achievements to false in Buffout 4 config.toml file to resolve conflicts between Buffout and Unlimited Survival Mod Rename anything Can be useful for renaming NPCs or objects. Be cautious with mods Scrap Everything and Place Everywhere, as they can have significant effects on your game. Scrap Everything can and will break precombines, which may not crash your game, but impact performance. For more info you can google "Scrap Everything precombines". I'm personally using Rebuilt AIO instead of Scrap Everything. Place Everywhere has an annoying feature that allows you to accidentally rotate any object in the settlement, including roads and house walls. You need to be careful with this mod, I just skipped it. Foundation Spoiler Subgroup: Start Me up If you prefer the vanilla start without using alternate start mods, create a clean save just before leaving the vault and then load it with the modded game. UltraLOD Feather The file is unavailable and I don't know if there are any replacements. Subgroup: Fallout 4 HD Overhaul I recommend to replace all 15 texture files directly in Fallout game folder instead of installing them in MO2 to save disk space and make it more reliable ig? Download the 2K Overhaul here: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/65720 Luxor's Rocks Moss Another replacement that fits the list. Oppressor's Nuka-Cola Project (4K) - Complete Edition (BOS Support) Oppressor's Nuka-Cola Bottlecap Project (2K) - Replacer - WIP Ultimate Nuka-Cola replacer Another Pine Forest Mod (Optional) Another Pine Tree Forest Performance Textures (Optional) FO4 HD Overhaul Pine Forest Redone LOD Patch A Forest A Forest - Pine Trees Redone Patch True Grass A Forest True Grass Compatibility Patch Autumnal Grass Overhaul (Optional) Lily Pads and pond scum remover Skipped these mods because the idea of constant green Wasteland ruins the ambience for me, I use Seasons Change instead. Seasons Change - A Merry Modding Days Mod Seasons Change - Tree Flicker Fix Great mod for seasons change, finally UI Spoiler Pip-Boy 2000 Mk VI If you want Pipboy in FO76 style Pip-Boy 2000 Mk VI Trans Pride Skin Personal preference ^_^ Pip-Boy dual colors Colorful Pip-Boy HUD Workshop Framework Download the OLD GEN replacers as well FallUI - Confirm Boxes (incl. Yes Im Sure) Makes confirm boxes prettier and features longer lists Colorful HUD Preset for Fall UI 3Dline-UI-FALL UI hud preset The Ultimate FallUI Preset Transgender Pride HUD (Fallui minimal preset) PRIMAHUD - CompactTacticalOp Some presets I like Satellite World Map For some reason 8k map was broken for me... MCM Settings Manager Good tool for configuring your settings, but I personally recommend manually setting all your options at the very start of a playthrough, even if you have them saved. Just in case. Looks Menu Customization Compendium Looks Menu Customization Compendium Fix We're going to use the 2K face, right? 2K LooksMenu Customization Compendium ba2 f4ee.ini for 2K f4ee-patched Subgroup: Vault Girl Perks There are many additional NSFW perks on the mod author's page - https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/HonestAndrew07/mods?gameId=1151 Install at your discretion, I have all of them. Companion Status UI Remastered Fancy Companion Status override HD LockPick Interface Textures Spoiler Armament - Ammunition and Ballistics Overhaul Issues with damage - its either works fine with vanilla weapons, but modded weapons deal 0 damage with ini file in foldler Armament - Ammunition and Ballistics Overhaul\F4SE\Plugins\RobCo_Patcher\weapon OR deals like 5x damage without that file. Also shotguns seem to have broken damage. Bloody Realistic - HD Blood Textures Kinda mediocre to me Fabulous Fire Extinguisher (Replacer) We'll be using another one Military grade duct tape olive-green We'll be using another one (Optional) More Effects Leaves FX Removed from Nexus (Optional) MM Journals Skip this if you want to use the adult version Nuka-Cola Bottlecap Replacer Nuka-Cola Bottlecap Replacer - Collision Fix (Optional) Nuka Cola Girl Bottles We have Oppressor's Nuka Cola Project for that Nuka Recipe Book 2K Retextures (Nuka World) Removed from Nexus, but the download link is still there, we'll be using another one Retextured Chems We already have HD Chems Project, but it is missing stimpak, mentats, and some other chems. Unfortunately I couldn't find any other decent replacements decent, so you may try to mix them if you want. Robot Model Kit 2K Retextures and Collectible Boxes Removed from Nexus. Too bad, seems to be an interesting mod. The Nuka Project We have Oppressor's Nuka Cola Project for that (Optional) Workbench - Replacer We'll be using another one Visible Galaxy and Framework Obsolete (and also a bit broken), we'll be using another one Enhanced Night Sky - Improved Visible Galaxy Framework You Must Be This Tall To Ride Princess Nuka...

Darling Skin is wonderful, though, and if you don't really care about neck seam - go with it. Porcupine's PubicHairs 3.0 You need the PorcPubesFG Porcupine's Skin Overlays Porcupine's Tattoos Distinctive Teeth We'll be using Expressive Expressions Expressive Expressions - For Females Expressive Expressions - For Males Expressive Expressions - For Females - Eyelash Morph Fix Update Less Bright Pearly Whites The Eyes of Beauty Fallout Edition - Remastered You can use both standalone and vanilla KS Hairdos - Addon(s) with Physics For the Commonwealth Cuts Ponytail Hairstyles Mesh Fix THBrows 2.0 Required for Hi-Poly companion replacements MiscHairstyle1.6 Required for Hi-Poly companion replacements Hair Color Fix I highly recommend avoiding the Hair Color Fix, as it can make some hair appear with an unnatural bright yellow color. It seems that the Nuka World DLC altered the hair color palette and introduced new colors. As a result, some mods, like the Ivy HD replacer, still use the old palette. This means that instead of getting the intended blonde hair color, you may end up with pink hair instead. You can either use the Hair Color Fix, which can cause some hair colors to look strange, or stick with the HD hair color replacement below that may affect NPCs who were made with old color palette (blonde => pink). The affected only NPC I know so far is Ivy hipoly replacer, you can go with the private version to keep her hair brown. Hair Tones Redux - A Hair Color Overhaul Enhanced palette of hair colors Wasteland Rad Tan - Tan Lines as Overlays Immersive Nail Polish v 1.8 Very adorable nail polish mod Eyelid Clipping Fix Eyelid Clipping Fix - Male NPC Spoiler Show Accurate Codsworth If you're a fan of fallout series (Optional) Fallout Ladies - Ivy (HiPoly) Replacer Go with private version because of the hair color issue (Optional) Heather Casdin Heather Casdin - Fusion Girl Patch (Optional) Heather Casdin Redux 2022 - Visual Overhaul (Optional) Heather Companion Patch (Original Graphic) I got confused with that last patch and compatibility issues, so skipped for now. Too bad, she has a cute kitty. Raider Gangs Extended I have concerns about compatibility, but feel free to give it a try Orphans for Workshop Framework Orphans of the Commonwealth - Hair Fix Install both after main file The Eye of Beauty - NPC eyes texture replacer Probably a wrong link, we got covered both standalone and replacer version in PC category. Creatures Spoiler SavrenX Better Robots and HD Liberty Prime Also install the Turret Decal Fix FGEP - Feral Ghouls Expansion Pack FGEP - Feral Ghouls Expansion Pack - Textures Not my cup of tea. It's good for zombie survival, but totally out of touch with Fallout lore (Optional) Mutant Menagerie (Optional) Mutant Menagerie - Textures Something really weird, Rock Bottom from Spongebob be like. Physics and Animation Spoiler Immersive Animation Framework Moved it down to the new IAF Category (created it between Patches and World and Quests), because at some point it stopped working correctly. Animated Chems Redone We'll be using animated HD Chems Project Feral Ghouls Slower Vanilla Attacks Animations Where's the challenge then lmao Have a Beer and Immersive Animation Framework Patch Moved it down to the new IAF Category Hunting Rifle Animation Replacer Pistol Reanimation Pack Vanilla Reanimation Project - Combat Rifle (Shotgun) Vanilla Reanimation Project - Combat Rifle (Shotgun) TR Vanilla Reanimation Project - Double Barrel Shotgun Have issues with Tactical Reload patches, either skip or troubleshoot yourself Lowered Weapons Animations look weird with minigun/gatling laser, but you might give it a try Sexy AF Walking Animation Sexy walking animation Stomp Crush those annoying pests NPC Drinking Fix Immersion Armor Spoiler It's really up to you. Aylis' outfit list is nice, and you might also want to look for new releases since 2023. I recommend only installing outfit mods that you REALLY need or all-in-one packs or that are ESLified. Otherwise, you will run into the plugin limit very quickly. Some of my recommendations: Earrings of The Commonwealth Install both Main file and ESL flagged VTAC REDUX - Vault-Tec Advanced Combat-Armor and Suit VTAC REDUX v.2 - SPECIAL Buffs VTAC REDUX - Vault-Tec Advanced Combat-Armor and Suit -- Fusion Girl Bodyslides TheKite's Vault-Tec Slave Suit TheKite's Vault-Tec Slave Suit - Conversion to Fusion Girl Bodyslide and HHS Charming High Heels for Fallout 4 Charming High Heels Fusion Girl BodySlide Conversion (HHS) Power Armor Spoiler Again, it's up to you. Some of my recommendations: Institute Power Armor M150s Institute Power Armor HD Reboot Sound Spoiler Reverb and Ambiance Overhaul We'll be using the tweaked version Reverb and Ambiance Overhaul - Tweaked Ambient Wasteland - Fallout 4 Edition Sounds sometimes might be out of touch, but its a matter of habit I guess. Barefoot Footstep We'll be using the extended version (Optional) Combat Comments Excessive, we'll be using Player Comments and Head Tracking Cut SFX Restored Moved it down to the Final Category because something seem to overwrite it, probably the Project Reality Footsteps Also, I really recommend you to install the no focus patch, otherwise it will become annoying pretty fast. Enemy Footstep Sound Probably causing issues, based on mod comments. You may also try this one, I'll just stay with vanilla ones. Ghoul Sound Replacer (Video) Kinda weird and creepy, check if you actually like it JSRS Sound Mod for Fallout 4 We'll be using another one, also minigun sound will make your ears hurt. New Sounds - Pull Pin With this mod you'll never know if your Molotov is ready to use, vanilla sounds are not that bad tbh. The Sound Of Caps Sierra Petrovita experience Jolly Item Sounds Very immersive Immersive Frustrated Female Lockpicking Sounds Obviously must-have Artillery Strike Sound Mod I'd recommend you Variant 2 Barefoot Footstep Extended Barefoot Footstep Extended Sound Package Barefoot Footstep Extended - VTAW Series Patches High Heels Sound - Fallout 4 Edition New High Heels Sound Library Click clack P.A.M.S - Power Armor Movement Sounds Excessive and not suiting imo Quieter Settlements There are a number of CTD reports in the comments and bug section, I'm not sure if that's true nor wanna risk testing it, so its up to you. Immersive Squeaky Doors I recommend the quieter version Player Comments and Head Tracking Player Comments and Head Tracking - IGD patch Player Comments and Head Tracking - UFO4 Patch Very Immersive and the best player comment mod. Patches can be flagged as ESL. Diamond City Radio Extended Best Diamond City radio mod JRavens Extra Tracks - CLASSIC Required for the classical radio mod Fallout 4 Classical Radio Extended - Inspired by Civ IV OST Best Classical Radio mod ^_^ Persistent Volume Sliders Absolutely a MUST, unless you want to play with bad vanilla audio sliders. Jump Grunt Running Breathing Both mods are immersive and not annoying Car Alarm Nice addition to vehicles Radiant Birds Can be flagged as ESL. Better Fireworks Sounds Duffle Bag Sound Fix Attention, this mod contains an edited vanilla .nif (mesh) file. Retextures of vanilla duffle bag will work fine, but replacements that change both textures and mesh files may cause issues. Resynched Power Armor Handling Sounds Louder Waves A.B.S. - Alternate Bashing Sounds (for Pain-Train) Can Chime Disarm Sound Removed Quality of life additions Zippo sounds for cigarette lighting For smokeable cigars/cigarettes/joints Fallout 4 Resound Project - Guns Very nice and quality vanilla firearms sound overhaul Enhanced Main Menu Music Alternative main menu music replacement Override Spoiler It's up to you, I'm using only some of them Leveled Item Framework (LIF) Classic Holstered Weapons System Extended Diamond City Holidays (Optional) First Person Messages (Optional) HR's In-Game Collectible Maps and Display Idiot Savant to Idiot Slut Vault Girl Perk Idiot Savant Immersive Burning Molotovs and Flamers (Optional) Mannequins Replacer No Magic Lock Knowledge Shell Rain Tactical Reload Moved it down to the Weapon and Armor We Are The Minutemen We Have Names (and more) - DLC Edition Militarized Minutemen Militarized Minutemen - Uniforms Patches and Insignia Addon We Are The Minutemen - Militarized Minutemen - Uniform Patches and Insignia Addon - Compatibility Patch Something I'd recommend you to skip Enhanced Gun Smoke FO4 firearms are not civil war muskets, jeez. Actually there is a musket, but it shoots with lasers! Immersive Fallout Combat - IFC Ragdoll makes combat a joke, the unfunny one. Bullet Impact Overhaul On the second thought, excessive - too much noises. We'll be using a mod with tracing bullets to make the similar effect of being under fire. For the rest we'll gonna use new weapons sounds and RAO. And also be very careful with mods that alter damage, as you might face issues with too high/low damage. Building Spoiler It's also up to you, I'm using only some of them Settlement Menu Manager Auto Doors Auto Door DLC Patch (Optional) Better Armory Mod (BAM) - Weapon Racks and More Better High Tech Lights (Optional) Coffee Mod 9000 GTX French Roast Crimsomrider's Unique Furniture (Optional) Custom Concrete Walls with Window Glass CWSS (Direct Link) CWSS CTD Fix (Optional) Decoration Appreciation Removed from Nexus Display Shelves Fallout 3 Workshop Furniture Removed from Nexus Female Mannequin (Fusion Girl) (Optional) Furniture Repair Service Excessive tbh, you can have both broken and prewar versions of most furniture with other mods. Generator - Fusebox-Powerbox with 3-5-10 and 100 energy (Optional) Grounded Holotape Display Shelves Less shitty industrial wall lights Looks Mirror (Optional) Lovers Luxury Bed - The Black Widow Lovers Luxury bed - The Lady Killer (Plain - MY Bed) New Shack Walls (Optional) Nixie Wall Clocks Nuka Cola and Vim Display Racks Nuka Cola Refrigerated Display Case Radiation Cleaning Homemaker - Expanded Settlements Nice addition to your settlements Renovated Furniture Repaired Wall-Clock - Mesh Replacer Homemaker AND Vanilla version (Optional) Singing Settler Vault-Tec Breeding Posters Vault-Tec Breeding Posters - Adult Something Vault-Tec would actually do Vault 88 Power Connectors with more Range Vault 88 Railings Vault 88 Room Corners Plus Vault 88 Room Corners Plus - Unlocked Vault Door FIXED Vault-Tec DLC - Snappable Vault Floor-mats Build Your Own Pool Pools Glazing - Windows With Glass (WWE) Windows Vault-Tec Workshop Overhaul Redux (VTWOR) Probably the same as Vault 88 above, but I'm not sure, need someone to explain it. Commonwealth Customs V+100 CarpackScriptFixV1 Vehicles Misc Spoiler Made this category for myself, you may organize it into other categories if you want. Wet Effects Immersive Candles Lollipop Delight For that sexy vibes CRACKLE - Comforting fires for the discerning hobo - A bit of immersion Myopia Simulator (Immersive Glasses) If you have myopia like me, its will be the best immersive mod for you. Unfortunately, it has no MCM settings and can't be turned off, so it will remain blurry in looksmenu and during AAF animations. You can use Roggvir's No-Strip Items Manager to keep your glasses on during animations, but there is still no solution for looksmenu. Long story short, great for immersion but has zero configurations. Glasses Drop Prescription Eyewear Extra mods for myopia for even more immersion Clearer Glasses APC transport More lore-friendly fast travel Custom Camera Obviously a must Artillery Unrestricted Minutemen became slightly more powerful GET DIRTY (take a bath) Get Dirty Update Follower Script GET DIRTY (take a bath) additional effects Get Dirty Craftable Washing Kit Immersive addition to CWSS The Collector's Guides You're gonna google it anyway, aren't you? 3rd Person Behavior Fixes Craftable S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Books Put all the burnt papers in a good use! Roleplayer's Expanded Dialogue (RED) More dialogue options SL Magazines Obviously a must for a survival mode with all the variety of modded inventory items PiCSeL's Strong Legs magazine retexture 2k 2.0 Naughty textures Erotic Art Prisoner Shackles Nuka Cola Bubblegum Lore-friendly consumables Modern Pinups Posters Craftable Wedding Ring Bobblehead Dollhouse - Bobblehead Stand Lootable Spotlights Makes them useful at last Far Harbor Boat Fast Travel Nuka-World Monorail Tram Fast Travel Patches and Fixes Spoiler No More Fake Puddles Puddles are obsolete with the improved graphics we're gonna use RAW INPUT - The Ultimate Mouse Sensitivity Fix More satisfying shooting Charismatic Wedding Ring Renames your wedding ring, but still usable (Optional) Decent Elevators - Floor Takes a valuable ESP slot, check if you really need it Delay DLC Removed from Nexus HD Chems Project and Immersive Animation Framework Patch Moved it down to the new IAF Category Long Loading Times Fix Seems to have a lot CTD bug reports, its up to you NPC Accuracy Revised Also up to you, I like challenging gunfights so don't mind vanilla accuracy Quest Tags - FIS Removed from Nexus REAL.AI REAL.AI - Untethered You know those settlers who complain about ghouls threatening them from the other side of the map? They've definitely been using this mod! In short, this mod ridiculously increases the NPC detection range, and it would be fun if you won't be constantly attacked by everyone like this. It up to you, but imo it is unbalanced and also may affect quests, so I'd recommend you to skip it or configure yourself. Real Time Cover Penetration Framework Excessive and requires manual configuration for different ammo type, install it only if you really need it. Remove Hammering Probably should be covered by Rebuild AIO, though I'm not sure. Regardless, hammering makes settlement more live, so I don't mind. Retro Radio Replacer We already have an enhanced vanilla version, but you may want to try this as well Robco Fun - Red Menace Magazine I'd say this is optional, there is a possibility of conflicts with magazine replacers mods. Simple Offence Suppression Probably should be put into F4SE scripts category (Optional) Nuka-World Collectable Quest Markers Makes it too easy tbh, its not as hard as collecting magazines. Tougher Cars - Durable Vehicles If you're going to use the Car Alarm mod, install it's Car Alarm - More Durable Vehicles instead of this mod. Legendary Radroach Fix Fixed Vault Sink Flicker Fixer Fixed High-Tech Benches Rusty Face Fix This mods is more like a safeguard, as you may experience it later in your gameplay. NOT NEEDED BECAUSE THE REQUIRED FEATURE IS INCLUDED IN HIPOLY FACES REDUX Rusty Face occurs when incorrect texture sizes are used (using 1K face textures for the 2K face) OR when there is a texture mismatch (2047x2047 instead of the 2048x2048). If you encounter the Rusty Face issue right from the start of your modded game, you need to fix the textures. Also, reloading your game might resolve the issue, but it may not work on the first attempt. Don't know much about it honestly, so I'd appreciate any clarifications in the comments. IAF Spoiler As I said before, these mods were moved lower because at some point IAF stopped working correctly. Immersive Animation Framework HD Chems Project and Immersive Animation Framework Patch Have a Beer and Immersive Animation Framework Patch Oppressor's Nuka-Cola Project - IAF Patch Schraderbrew - Replacer OR Schraderbrew - Standalone (Lootable/Selfmade) - IAF If you're a fan of Breaking Bad - obviously a must. For standalone versions, Wrye Bash may give you a warning, but seem to be false positive because mod is fully working. More info about it here World and Quests Spoiler It's up to you, I'm using only some of them Rebuild - Shared Resources Rebuild - Workshop Standalone Rebuild - Workshop Standalone - Auto Doors Patch Rebuild - AIO Rebuild - Longfellow's Bridge Rebuild - Starlight Drive-In Rebuild - Starlight Drive-In - Shutters Moved Rebuild down to the Final Category, also there's a new version so these links are obsolete. Caves Of The Commonwealth 1.2 Diamond City Supplements Immersive and Extended Nahant Immersive Beantown Brewery Immersive Covenant Compound Immersive Hub City Auto Wreckers There is a mod that patches them, but it has aio installation and for some reason I can't check covenant compound and auto wreckers options. Inside Jobs - Commonwealth Interiors Add-On Inside Jobs - UFO4P Patch ESL Laundry Machines To wash your dirty panties, obviously PinUp illuminated Poster New Vault-Girl Statues NUDE Diamond City Owns Its Crops More Crops I'm using the More Crops (Script Edit) - ESL flagged ESP version Weather and Lighting Spoiler RX9000 Color Correction Removed from Nexus Ghost ENB for Vivid Weathers We're gonna use this one to match the Vivid + Seasons mods Vivid Weathers - Weathers and Seasons for Fallout 4 Seasons Change - Vivid Weathers Patch Burst Impact Blast FX Excessive just like that enhanced gun smoke, and also unrealistic because it gives normal bullets the explosive ammo effect. Dynamic Interior Fog Removal There is no video showcase, and I couldn't decide whether to use it or not, so skipped it for now. Illuminated Billboards And Posters - AIO Use only the All In One Custom Billboard Replacer, since we've already replaced some of the textures to HD ones and you might want to install custom billboards as well. Illuminated posters looks weird tbh, so there's no need to install them. High tech ids seem to be buggy and flickering, as it says from comments. Probably because they have texture file. You may check it for yourself, I'd rather skip. Live Action Mr. Handy Either this or Show Accurate Codsworth Miscellaneous illuminated We already have illuminated diagnostic cart replacement, kinda excessive but you may edit it manually and leave only things you need. JUST NEW FEMALE ANIMATIONS Removed from Nexus Darker Transparent Objects - Glass - Plastic - Bug Wings Fix Overwrites Fallout 4 HD SSR, don't know if intended or not, skipped for now Better Ceiling Fan Light Weapons and Armor Spoiler I'm using only some of mods and also skipped vanilla weapons replacements since I want a lore-friendly gameplay Uneducated Shooter - QE Leaning and Gun Inertia Tactical leaning and multiple realistic tweaks, pretty neat Paint Me SavrenX Weapon HD DLC RobCo Recon Scope Replacer VWR - Vanilla Weapons Redone - Explosives Springfield Armory M1A Springfield Armory M1A 3rd person fix Heckler und Koch - G36 Complex Heckler und Koch - MP5 Complex Mossberg 500 Pump-Action Shotgun Mossberg 500 Update RPG-7V2 RPG-7V2 no LL injector We'll inject it via bashed patch... probably...

You may delete MK18 folder after installation or leave it as is. SPAS-12 Also install the LList_patch AA-12 BCR- Lever Action Rifle v1.02 DO NOT INSTALL THE BCR + TR, IT IS BUGGY AND EXCESSIVE Install all other weapons mods you'd like to use BEFORE this point. Tactical Reload Framework Tactical Reload Vanilla Tactical Reload DLC See Through Scopes I go with addon version (not the replacement one) for more compatibility Tactical Reload Patch Repository (DEPRECATED) DO NOT INSTALL TR PATCH FOR MK14 EBR BECAUSE IT WILL BREAK MELEE WEAPON IN 3RD PERSON. Also, check comments/bugs sections for other weapons that are not in my list, if you decide to install them. Weapons of Fate (Ballistics Overhaul) Amazing mod, reminds me of Battlefield 4 shooting system, absolutely a must Weapons of Fate Redux (RobCo Patcher Edition) Something I'd recommend you to skip (Optional) Long coat with skirt esp slot for a single coat, kinda meh TR - See Through Scopes Patch We don't need it, covered by Tactical Reload Patch Repository (DEPRECATED) Equipment and Crafting Overhaul (ECO) or Equipment and Crafting Overhaul (ECO) - Redux Probably a great mod, but I didn't figure out how does it works and skipped it lol. Seems like it requires a lot of patches, but feel free to give it a try!

It may recommend you to flag some ESP as ESL, but it is not always save to do it. Better ask in comments to mod/here if you should flag something as ESL or not. Run the Wrye Bash and run the Plugin Checker, resolve conflicts. Both tools can show you warnings for some mods, unfortunately you can't resolve 100% of those errors/warnings as some mods just come as is and wasn't updated. If warnings are something critical, its better to delete it. If not, you may leave it as is. Run the Wrye Bash and build Bashed Patch as Aylis instructed. Make sure that your overwrite folder is clear before you do it. Build meshes in Bodyslide Studio For body mesh: select body (Fusion Girl or Bodytalk) => select preset => check the "meshes\actors..." so yellow turns to azure => make sure that batch build unchecked => Build For outfits batch build: select body => select preset => choose groups for your body (top right search field, second from the right) => select everything BodyTalk3 for Bodytalk body => make sure that "meshes\actors..." is unchecked (in yellow color) => Batch Build => Select options if you have any => Go back to groups and invert the selection (select everything else but BodyTalk3, also include the "Uncategorized)) => Batch Build => Select options you need (look for FG/Fusion Girl). IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH DEVIOUS DEVICES OUTFITS AND/OR BUTTPLUGS, FOLLOW AS SAID HERE , So far the problem was only with plugs and StraitJacket. Spend a good dozens of hours testing your build before you start actually playing it. I know, its repetitive, hard and boring. But its better to find any bugs now than be sorry later. And you definitely would not want to delete/add mods in the midgame, as it can break much more than bugs you'll be trying to solve. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To do: Review the whole list To be continued Edited February 17, 2025 by Simpossible_xx Final completed 3

Some of my previous notes are on page 72. You will probably want to start your own post for this, as sooner or later Aylis will come back and start updating it again, chances are a bit after they finish with the Skyrim AE update they are currently doing. 1

Yes, but it seems that Aylis is currently working on the TS4 guide, and it’s a looooooooong road tbh. By the time Aylis returns to update this guide, she is more than welcome to use my notes for a quicker update. And if anything changes, I’ll just create my own topic. In the meantime, people can use both guide and my notes to create their up-to-date builds. Honestly, it’s the only FO4 modding guide with a systematic approach that I know of. I may not be an expert in FO4 modding, but my build is working, and I can help others troubleshoot issues from this guide since I’ve encountered many of them already. It feels like these notes belong here 🙂
Simpossible_xx Posted February 3, 2025 Posted February 3, 2025 (edited) Almost finished with my notes, only a few categories left. And I have questions for experienced players - how critical is a ba2 limit issue? Have you ever faced ctds or other problems caused by it? How many ba2 files do you have in your builds? I'm currently having 344 ba2 in total, and the limit is about 250 ba2 archives active at the same time. Should I be worrying about it? Or its gonna be fine? Should I replace ba2 files with loose files when its possible? UPD: Turns out there are 256 limits for each Main and Textures, and it is preferably to use ba2 files instead of loose when possible. You can also merge them somehow (don't know yet). Also, there is a great tool to check compatibility of all your mods/archives, track all limits, scan for possible errors and more - Collective Modding Toolkit. Added to main post.

_Warhawk_ Posted February 4, 2025 Posted February 4, 2025 @Simpossible_xxI appreciate the posts you have made on the guide and your modified build based on it. Just wanted to show my appreciation and probably will use it as my own base after you finish working on and writing last couple sections of your build. Don't have much experience either but been wanting to go through fallout again recently and have always loved Aylis's fallout 4 build.

My pleasure to help! 🥰 I'm really into Fallout 4 and grateful for all the creators making those kinky mods for us, so it feels nice to give something back and encourage others to get into modding Fallout. 3
deff. Posted February 25, 2025 Posted February 25, 2025 @Simpossible_xx may I suggest some mods to your list? Didn't noticed Screen Archer Menu in your list. ( you can get latest in Maxie discord - https://discord.gg/cKUdmk8T ) It's really must have mod Then for animations - SAM Enhanced animations. This mod adds adjustments to animation packs, see description of mod.

This mod adds adjustments to animation packs, see description of mod. SAM is in the Final category, I will add the SAM Enhanced animations too. I was thinking about adding Settlement Object Expansion Pack as well, but it seems buggy so I skipped it for now. On the other hand, SAM requires SOE for lightning and I'm not sure if I should use it. Feel free to suggest any mods you find necessary, or even review my modlist, I appreciate any kind of help! 1

DarthNyriss Posted March 22, 2025 Posted March 22, 2025 (edited) What's the state of play with this new list? Is it going to go through any updates anytime soon or do I have time to start installing? And Simpossible mentioned a .BA2 limit. Why not just extract some and make them loose files? It won't affect the game, I wouldn't think. I'm just curious about something. Is it a matter of preference, or something specific, for leaving Sim Settlements 2 out? Edited March 22, 2025 by DarthNyriss

It is not built for the new game version, but if you roll back to the appropriate version of fallout the list should be fine. Though if you do know what you are doing, it could probably be updated for ng version of Fallout. Not too sure why Sim Settlements 2 was removed, but I have not used it for ages, having had it in effect kill my save games, or at least sort of kill them in that I could not fast travel or even approach a couple of my settlements, when I did instant CTD, Sim Settlements itself did the same a few times as well. And I never had that issue no matter how big the settlement got without ss installed. Edited March 22, 2025 by Varithina

It won't affect the game, I wouldn't think. I'm just curious about something. Is it a matter of preference, or something specific, for leaving Sim Settlements 2 out? It requires a lot of configuration and currently only good for collecting links. I have a spreadsheet for the updated version of my guide that I posted here, however it still needs some adjustments. I think in April I'll make a new post/topic with that guide. As for the game version, there is no reason to use next-gen version, really. Last-gen works best with all mods and enb (there are some features deactivated on the next-gen enb), so unless you want to trade stable mod build for piggy bank and enclave armor... As for BA2 limit, the limit is separate - 256 for main files and 256 for texture files, makes 512 in total. Loose files will slow the loading time of your game, but even on my heavy modded build I'm still have about 210 ba2 archives for both textures and main files, so there's actually no need I guess? As for SS2, I can only suggest using it on your own discretion because it may conflict with bunch of other mods installed, since it is a very complicated thing. It probably works pretty fine as a standalone mod, however with that amount of features errors still may happen... Edited March 22, 2025 by Simpossible_xx
DarthNyriss Posted March 22, 2025 Posted March 22, 2025 (edited) I'm not that bothered with next gen. Years ago I did get a few of the CC addons, but just the ones for building, not the armor or weapons stuff. I'm not thrilled with the talk I hear about them being incompatible with next-gen. Right now I'm wading through Aylis's Skyrim AE list, so I can be patient. If there's one thing I learned doing these lists is patience. 🙂 Edited March 22, 2025 by DarthNyriss
