Fallout 4 for Beginners 4.0.6 (OG/NG/AE)


Recommended Posts

Posted

Was able to, thankfully, avoid an unasked for update, and just locked the appid file in my Steam folder. Haven't lost any mods in the current file set, and I'm set to go for now. Still running 1.11.191, or whatever the previous AE patch version is.

Not working with 221 atm:

In case you want to restore the older AE version:

Enter > steam://nav/console < and confirm.

Enter > download_depot 377160 377162 5433405173062582852 < and confirm.

Then open the folder which was created and paste the older > Fallout4.exe < from there into your game folder.

But not the dll in AAF.

It doesn't matter. You can use the original if you need Real Handcuffs and other mods. That won't make AAF work though.

Rolled back to 191 (the important mods arn't updated yet).

 

DAK's weapons are good, but some are simply too bulky or appear way too often. The 1911 shows up in almost every safe and, although it is widespread, that is way too often. So I'll rework the guns again to get a more balanced spread of weapon types. I'll also be trying to add a few guns to get more variety.

 

Next thing I'm looking at are more quest/location mods. PRP can be a pain so I'll be looking for ones that don't cause problems with precombines.

Seasons Change is stubborn and doesn't work. I'll try a few more things but it might never end up in the guide...

 

Nope, seasons are out. The outside looks fine (PRP blocked it), but having snow inside the buildings/settlements makes it unusable.

From what I know, that is the biggest issue with seasons changed and more specifically the snow part of the mod. It just places the snow texture on everything. It doesn't take into consideration what should and shouldn't have snow on or inside. The rest of the mod tends to be fine but its the snow option that causes issues. The snow plugin isn't dynamic so it just statically puts snow on almost every surface.

@_Warhawk_

Exactly. Too bad that an otherwise good mod is ruined by that.

 

@deff.

Thanks A LOT for the recommendation! 👍

Weapon distribution looks much better now. I managed to add some extra weapons so there are more variations in the weapons pool (and even the Supermutants are not as predictable as before).

 

Starting a new PC to ensure everything is working as intended...

It is unfortunate because that is probably the reason most people would want to use the mod. It is the coolest feature. Back in November, the author did say they are improving the snow system but who knows if it will be completed/updated and if it fixes that problem. The author is still involved in the comments of the mod so hopefully the improved snow system gets finished eventually.

Thanks, got the files from the link working (and can now replace a few mods with one).

 

But big pictures belong into spoilers (the only rule here 😊).

__________________________________________________

 

The clothing from VTAW isn't working properly anymore. Maybe FG got another hidden update 'cause the clothing now clips into the body... No new presets are available so I have no choice but to remove them. 

__________________________________________________

 

Good that I started a new char. The 'Rebuild' mods are a total PITA! They work, then they break, work, break again... I tried everything to get them working, now I have had enough. They get removed and thats it.

 

Next char...

Probably midtaw's stuff. FG hasn't been updated and the BETA content is not in conflict with the current stable ver

Thanks for the info.

 

They did work before so I'm at a loss what the real issue is. Anyway, now broken is broken and the armors will be removed.

Found a better alternative to CWSS (aka all mods for CWSS will be replaced). One mod instead of four, objects clip to walls, tiles for  the floor and some walls and the menu isn't as bloated. Several wins in one mod.

 

The folder-mod 'Vault Girl - Perks Patch' is uploaded. And no, we do not need 'LevelUpMenuEx' for this to work. Just follow the instructions.

 

'Valius Texture Pack' got some issues with location mods. Don't ask me how long it took me to identify the cause of the invisible objects. It will be replaced with the 'FlaconOil's texture pack'

B.O.S. Redux this is not a mod from vtaw, but latest update Bodyslide broke a number of previously stable clothing models, at least for CBBE.

I never listed that mod under Vtaw... I'll only make them optional as I'm checking two mods as a possible alternative. 😉

 

OK, then that might be the culprit...
