Recommended Posts

Posted

I use this fast start one https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/57101 it gives you start up options when your in character creation, I always set it with no automatic open doors with using signs of struggle mod, or you can be a bit overwhelmed in the vault. Just remember when you leave the cryo pod stand still until all the mods have loaded in....my test game is level 79 still trying to sort out my damn graphics issue though..

 

I followed your guide Thanks I appreciate it, However after playing a bit of RE9 and FO4 came back to my pc and guess what Adrenalin missing again...

In device manger its showing RX9070xt drivers along with Microsoft display adapter which i have disabled as i cannot do anything with it.. It won,t accept any different driver and all i get is code 10 

 

So why adrenalin keeps putting it,s coat on and going down the bar i don,t know

I really appreciate you taking the time on this issue when you have other things. So a very big thank you.. my mate who knows these things inside and out is going to take a look for me when he comes to visit next, After that the retailer has offered to have the card  returned so they can test it and said if it,s the card at fault they will replace it as it,s only just over  a month old....

CSEP feels a bit buggy gameplay wise. You can end up in locked rooms you can't escape. Won't add it.

The AX-50 is working but half of the scopes show up with a broken crosshair (texture bug with AMD cards). 

Atom's Retribution 2 (Video) Is looking fine so far. I'll add it as the mod adds an optional questline.

I'll remove the FNV feral ghouls. I tried everything I could think of but the neck/throat area stays broken. Going for Detailed Feral Ghouls instead.

Nate's Old Footlocker Makes sense that a veteran kept some things handy (especially with the mentioned riots).

Everyone's War - Female combat veteran backstory Fixes a logic bug in the game.

Lootable Glowing Oil Lamp Fixes the lighted oil lamps.

Grace's Watch Nice accessoir.

MW Sentry Turret (Video) Finally refound them. I used them before but they vanished from Nexus.

Radiant Dunwich Borers Some like Lovecraft others don't. So I leave it up to you...

Woody's Wasteland Stuff - Navmesh Patch Small fix.

Settler Built Settlements For those who don't want to spend too much time with upgrading settlements.

I use the Feral Ghouls Replacer (not the patch) sine it came out without problems.

I had no issue before, but now there's a gap between chin and torso. Tried different clothing mods for ferals (in case one had a mesh bug), reworked the LO of the armor patch, tried everything I could think of... But the 'floating head' always reappeared with the ferals.  

 

Only the removal of the replacer fixed the issue. I wish we had a mod that would replace all feral ghouls with the deranged ones.

Right now I'm trying to integrate 'Seasons Change'. Its a bit tricky (or I missed something 🤔) and I might have to rework the texture packs a bit for it.

Something i notice

At Details - Textures section Nuka Cola Girl Bottles Textures wont be used if you use The Nuca Project
At Weapons section VWR - Vanilla Weapons Redone - Explosives was removed from Nexus

Thanks. 😊

 

Hotfix

Removed both mods.

Optiscaler < Nope, no good. Causes hard crashes (had to restart the system).

A Forest < Works fine, 'True Grass' was causing the problems (even with patches).

HD Texture Overhaul < 4K/2K doesn't matter. I tested several LO, reinstalled both versions several times and had CTD without any obvious cause (except the pack itself).

You might get some luck from this texture pack (I run the 4k but I'm sure the 2k would be fine?)

This hasn't caused crashed for me, I dont think but I'm not sure it's sped up my load times either but my system is pretty strong

The first one rings a bell... I'll check it out.

 

The second one is already in the guide. Look at the last update. ;)

He nicely sums it up why I hate the vanilla guns in FO4.

In the initial post, it is stated that FO4Edit is needed in order to start a script, but I'm not seeing it in any of the mods that I have installed. It's still a great tool, but as a suggestion/request, might there be some identifier added on the lists to flag what mods will require using FO4Edit? I have also checked the mod page descriptions for each mod I have downloaded, and I am not seeing any direction in them to use FO4Edit.

 

As a more specific question, for deleting the F4SE and MCM folders with Armament, would those be the ones within the Armament folder created after installation, or a different one? The direction on that item feels unclear at this time for me.

Normally when it is stated to delete folders from a mod, it is going to be in the folder created when you install the mod using MO2. You can either use MO2 to view the files and delete what you need too or you can open the folder is explorer and do it from there.

@Whit Carro

I rephrased the entry. For FO4 we only need 'Wrye Bash'.

 

'FO4Edit' and 'FO4 NPC Manager' (later) are useful in some situations, but they are not required.

Caution

Tomorrow Bethesda will release an update for the console players. This might also mean an update for the PC as well so be careful and backup your executable and LO.

Posted (edited)

if your game accidentally update, use Downgrader to revert game back to 1.10.163. Downgrader don't downgrade to NG or previous AE version. Game version will be 1.10.163, but you can enjoy AE content. !

Don't delete your mods, don't reinstall game/whatever. Download dowgrader, extract it somewhere on your pc. Run Downgrade By Patching Files.bat and that's it. Run your game through F4SE as usual. Everything must work.
