Fenris' Personal Mod Guide / Setup Part 1[edit | edit source]

Because I'm gonna forget what to install in a year or two.

Title: Mod it till it breaks.[edit | edit source]

Game[edit | edit source]

  • Fallout 4 v1.9.4.0

DLC Required[edit | edit source]

  • Wasteland Workshop
  • Automatron
  • Far Harbour
  • Contraptions Workshop
  • Vault-Tec Workshop
  • Nuka-World

Introduction[edit | edit source]

If you're following this guide I'm going to make an ass of you and me and assume that you know what you're doing when it comes to modding Bethesda games.

I'll do my best to have the mods here ordered in a way that makes sense.

I tend to favor lore friendly mods that spice up the visuals, as well as grabbing as many lore friendly weapon and armour mods as I can fit into a load order.

I'll include reminders to run LOOT and to check that your game isn't derping out after each section.

Here's my PC's config if you're into that sort of thing, it's probably worth mentioning that this guide will favour high fidelity over FPS, with little to no compromises:

  • CPU: Intel Core i7 8086K @ 5.2Ghz
  • GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 1080Ti Gaming X Trio @ 2050Mhz / 7Ghz
  • RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengeance Pro 3600Mhz CL16
  • Mobo: AsRock Z370 Professional Gaming i7
  • SSD: Samsung 970 Evo 500GB
  • Data: 2 x 8TB 7200rpm HDD RAID0

Using Kesta's flares and fancy mod sections.

Getting Started[edit | edit source]

First things first: Install the game[edit | edit source]

Whether via steam or some other platform, it's usually a good idea to install the game to a directory that isn't Steam's default.
That is to say, anywhere that isn't either C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86).

Below is a small walkthrough of how to set up a secondary install location in Steam.
If you have a second hard drive or an SSD just for games, then you have no doubt done this already. However bear in mind that this guide will end up using about 200GBs of space.

Tutorial1.jpg

Tutorial2.jpg

Tutorial3.jpg

Drivers & Applications[edit | edit source]

Whilst the game is downloading, this is the perfect time to prepare the other applications that we're going to use.[edit | edit source]

Update your graphics card drivers[edit | edit source]

  • Nvidia drivers can be found here.
  • AMD drivers can be found here.

Choose a text editing program[edit | edit source]

There are a few choices here, the main two being Notepad++ and Sublime Text 3.

NPP.JPG Sublime.JPG


Once you have chosen a text editor you should set it as the default program to open both .ini and .txt files.

To do this go to your Fallout 4 directory and right click an ini file such as Fallout4_Default.ini, then select Open With > Choose another app.
Ensure that Always use this app to open .ini files is ticked, then scroll down the list and click More apps > Look for another app on this PC.
Point Windows to the editor's executable file.

For Notepad++ this is a file named notepad++.exe located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++

For Sublime Text this is a file named sublime_text.exe located in C:\Program Files\Sublime Text 3

Repeat this process for .txt files as well.

Next, install an archiving program like WinRAR[edit | edit source]

I've been using WinRAR forever, so it's just what I'm familiar with. It's available in 32bit and 64bit versions.

Another option is 7-zip, which is also available in 32bit and 64bit flavors.

Run the game for the first time[edit | edit source]

This will set up the necessary registry entries and will create two files in your documents inside of \Documents\My Games\Fallout4

  • Fallout4.ini
  • Fallout4Prefs.ini

Launcher2.png

Nexus Mod Manager[edit | edit source]

Mod Organizer 2 has frustrating problems when installing a mod with multiple options, the menus simply don't work on some mod installers so you'll be stuck with the default settings.
This is quite a shame as Mod Organizer 2 is more feature complete then NMM, and I prefer it greatly. NMM will work fine for our purposes however until Mod Organizer 2 is fixed.

You can download Nexus Mod Manager from this link.

  • Install Nexus Mod Manager and point it to your Fallout 4 install directory, create a folder on the same drive as your Fallout 4 install that will hold all of your mods.
  • When you first select Fallout 4 as the game to use with NMM, it will ask where to install your mods, and where to keep the install info. Choose the folder on the same drive as your Fallout 4 install.
  • Go to the mods tab and under Categories, click Categories: expand all categories, this will just make it easier to see the mods that you're going to be downloading.

Categories.png

Next you're going to need to log into Nexus Mod Manager using your Nexus account. This will enable you to download mods over 2MB through NMM.

LOOT[edit | edit source]

LOOT is a tool that automates load order optimization, it is also able to tell you if a mod has dirty edits and needs cleaning. You are able to run it through Nexus Mod Manager.

TOOL
LOOT - Load Order Optimization Tool - v0.11.0 - by WrinklyNinja
  • MAIN FILES - LOOT v0.11.0 - Installer

Installation :

  • Download the installer and either save the file or use 'Open With > WinRAR'
  • Extract the installer or double click it to run it
  • Create an easy to access folder to hold all of your modding tools and install LOOT to it
  • Restart Nexus Mod Manager if it is open already, you should now be able to launch LOOT from the Supported Tools menu

Loot Launch.png

FO4Edit[edit | edit source]

FO4Edit is a powerful tool that has a myriad of features. We'll be using it to automate the cleaning process of mods with dirty edits.
Here's a guide for using xEdit to clean your mods.

TOOL
FO4Edit - 3.2 - by xEdit Team
  • MAIN FILES - FO4Edit 3.2

Installation :

  • Download the latest version and either save the file or use 'Open With > WinRAR'
  • Extract the files to a new folder called FO4Edit inside of your modding tools folder
  • Copy FO4Edit.exe and rename it to FO4EditQC.exe. This executable is used for cleaning mods.
  • In the Supported Tools menu of NMM, click 'Config FO4Edit' and point it to the 'FO4Edit.exe' file
  • Add FO4EditQC.exe to the Supported Tools, as well.
  • You can now launch FO4Edit from Nexus Mod Manager

INI Tweaks[edit | edit source]

BethINI[edit | edit source]

TOOL
BethINI - 2.5 - by Vuud
  • MAIN FILES - BethINI

Installation :

  • Download the latest version and either save the file or use 'Open With > WinRAR'
  • Extract the folder named BethINI to your modding tools folder
  • Navigate to this folder and run BethINI.exe
  • Select Fallout 4 from the list of available games

BethINI-1.png

  • Once you've selected Fallout 4 from the list, the full program will load
  • Have a look around at the different settings on the 'Basic' tab, the tooltips will give you more information
  • Below are the settings I shall be using, this is the BethINI Ultra preset with a few small tweaks:

BethINI-2.png BethINI-3.png
BethINI-4.png BethINI-5.png
BethINI-6.png BethINI-7.png

Manual Tweaks[edit | edit source]

Make a copy of 'Fallout4.ini' inside of \Documents\My Games\Fallout4 and name it 'Fallout4Custom.ini'; this is the file we will be editing.

Open Fallout4Custom.ini in your chosen text editor and scroll down to the [Interface] section. If you have played the game a lot before you can disable the tutorial messages by adding 'bShowTutorials=0' at the bottom of the section so that it looks like this:

[Interface]
fSafeZoneX=15.0
fSafeZoneXWide=64.0
fSafeZoneXWide16x10=64.0
fSafeZoneY=15.0
fSafeZoneYWide16x10=36.0
bShowTutorials=0

For custom meshes to look their best in game, open Fallout4Custom.ini and add 'bUseCombinedObjects=0' at the bottom of the [General] section so that it looks like this:

[General]
sLanguage=en
uGridsToLoad=5
uExterior Cell Buffer=36
bDisableAllGore=0
sIntroSequence=
fChancesToPlayAlternateIntro=0
uMainMenuDelayBeforeAllowSkip=0
fEncumberedReminderTimer=3600
bUseCombinedObjects=0

We're going to improve the readability of the in-game console by adding a new section underneath the [MapMenu] section.

Copy this text and add it underneath 'uLockedTerrainLOD=32' in the [MapMenu] section:

[Menu]  
iConsoleSizeScreenPercent=65
iConsoleTextSize=16 
rConsoleHistoryTextColor=153,160,153
rConsoleTextColor=255,255,255 
rDebugTextColor=255,235,222

For the Immersive Maps mod to display in colour, we need to disable the effects of the Pipboy. To do this, add this section into Fallout4Custom.ini:

[Pipboy]
bPipboyDisableFX=1

If you're interested in learning more about the different settings available in the .ini files, you can check out InsanePlumber's post here.

Extenders and Plugins[edit | edit source]

Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE)[edit | edit source]

This is an essential mod that continues the work from the Skyrim Script Extender.

CORE
F4SE - 0.4.0 - by Ian Patterson, Stephen Abel, and Brendan Borthwick
  • MAIN FILES - f4se_0_04_00.7z

Installation :

  • Download F4SE by clicking the 7z archive button at the top of the page

F4SE Download.JPG

  • Either save the file or use 'Open With > WinRAR'
  • Copy across the following files and directories to your Fallout 4 root folder (where Fallout4.exe is located)
    • \Data
    • CustomControlMap.txt
    • f4se_1_9_4.dll
    • f4se_loader.exe
    • f4se_steam_loader.dll
  • In Nexus Mod Manager click the arrow by 'Launch Fallout4' and then click the 'Launch F4SE' button
  • You will notice that a console window opens briefly; shortly after the game will load
  • This will be your way to start the game from now on

F4SE Launch.png

Shadow Boost[edit | edit source]

Shadow Boost dynamically controls the the shadow draw distance in Fallout 4 to attempt to keep you at a specified framerate.

CORE
Shadow Boost - v1.9.4.0 - by Alexander Blade
  • MAIN FILES - ShadowBoost_1.9.4.0.zip

Installation :

  • Download Shadow Boost by clicking the Download button towards the bottom of the page
  • Either save the file or use 'Open With > WinRAR'
  • Copy across the following files and directories to your Fallout 4 root folder (where Fallout4.exe is located)
    • ShadowBoost.asi
    • ShadowBoost.ini
    • xinput1_3.dll

You can modify ShadowBoost.ini if you wish, however I find that the default settings work fine:

fTargetFramerate= - This setting determines your desired framerate, if you are playing with vsync or an fps lock enabled then be sure to keep it at least a couple fps lower than the maximum, otherwise the plugin won't increase the shadow draw distance when you reach that framerate.
fDistChangeSpeed= - This setting determines how quickly the shadow distance will change. The safe range is between 0.5 and 5.0.
fShadowDrawDistMin= - This setting determines the minimum distance that shadows will render.
fShadowDrawDistMax= - This setting determines the maximum distance that shadows will render. Users with lower-end PCs may want to reduce this setting.

Essentials[edit | edit source]

These mods are here because they need to be installed before other mods further down this guide, installing them now will just make things easier later on.

For each of these mods, and the mods in each further section, the required files will usually be downloadable via Nexus Mod Manager by simply pressing the 'Download With Manager' button in the files tab of the mod.

The file or files to download will be specified as being under either the Main Files, Optional Files, or Update section of the files tab.

Description : "This resource accomplishes the following things:

  1. Creates a standardized framework for armor and cosmetics keywords for mod authors to prevent conflicts
  2. Standardizes armor and cosmetics slot usage to prevent conflicts (contributed by all major cosmetics mod authors).
  3. Creates a standard armor and weapons workbench to be utilized for crafting items added by mods.
  4. Adds a standard ma keyword for use by weapon modders, a set of OMODs for damage upgrades for blade weapons, and dn keywords for Tactical Light, Laser Sight, & Tactical Light/Laser Sight combo OMODs. The release of Weaponsmith Extended will demonstrate how to replace ma keyword filtering for mod weapons with a GetEquipped condition. This was set up so that people can use lots of mod weapons without using up a bunch of the very limited amount of ma keywords that we have available before hitting the cap and causing the mod menu category formlist cap/ invisible robot bug.
  5. Adds sorting keywords for weapon calibers to make it easier for weapon modders to set up their gun mods for dynamic sorting."

  2. Every hat and helmet in the game that doesn't cover your face can be worn with bandanas & gas masks.
  3. Every outfit and every hat & helmet in the game can have ballistic weave armor added to it.
  4. I completely redid the entire clothing modding system from scratch.

  6. All clothing items are moddable now and are also rename-able.
  7. I made this mod compatible with Legendary Modification by teaLz.
  8. For the master armorsmith/scientists out there I've implemented a new craftable set of armor called Therm Optics Combat Armor. Using stealth technology it is now possible to create cloaked combat armor pieces.
  9. This mod is now fully compatible with Valdacil's Item Sorting.
  10. I optimized the slot usage for all vanilla clothing to use the minimum amount of slots necessary for things to work properly.
  11. All apparel can now be worn by Nick Valentine.
  12. Strong or any other future super mutant followers/settlers can wear all hats/helmets, gas masks, bandanas/masks, and glasses."

Have you said to yourself "D*** the torpedoes, I am going into Downtown Boston or I'm heading to the coast!", only to find once you arrive that 99% of the shops and houses are all boarded up?

Have you ever wondered "Why hasn't anyone looted these buildings in the last 200 years?" (Well 210 years to be exact, give or take the rotation of the earth and a few dings to my chronometer!)

If so, then this mod is for you!

The Beantown interiors project, the sister mod to Fallout 3's D.C. Interiors Project and Fallout New Vegas's N.V. Interiors Project, promises to bring many of the elements from my previous mods which you've come to know and love, into Fallout 4.

Workshop Lightbulb Emittance Fix[edit | edit source]

CORE
Workshop Lightbulb Emittance Fix - 1.0 - by fadingsignal

Files to download :
  • MAIN FILES - Workshop Lightbulb Emittance Fix

Description :
"This is a very simple mesh replacer to fix the problematic vanilla Workshop light bulbs.

There are numerous problems with lights in Fallout 4, but this one was particularly frustrating because it was NOT related to power. In some areas, light bulbs, while receiving power and lighting up just fine will suddenly only emit an extremely dim, dull white light. Many have said this happens for them at The Castle, and for me the problem areas were Tenpines Bluff and Greygarden.

The issue is -- as with previous Bethesda engines -- layers of blending effects will easily confuse the engine. The default Workshop lightbulb has alpha transparency on the bulb glass, with an internal filament component -- which could never be seen in-game anyway, and made the light node glitch and not emit in certain viewing situations."

Vault 81 Mole Rat Disease Fix - 1.0 - by Yukichigai

Files to download :
  • MAIN FILES - Vault 81 Mole Rat Disease Fix

Description :
"Although lore-wise the disease is contracted after being bitten by an infected Mole Rat, in-game the player can contract the disease a number of other ways:

  • The player's companion is attacked by an infected Mole Rat
  • A friendly NPC is attacked by an infected Mole Rat
  • An infected Mole Rat attacks anything at all
  • The player happens to be in the right section of Vault 81 and the game just f%$#ing feels like it

The root cause of each of these scenarios is a missing condition check on the "Give Disease" effect that Vault 81 Mole Rats carry. Rather than triggering the effect whenever the player is attacked, the effect triggers whenever ANYONE is attacked by an infected Mole Rat, and sometimes when the Disease effect is initiated. Since the effect is a script that manually applies the disease to the player, any attack by an infected Mole Rat on ANYTHING will give the player Mole Rat Disease."

"Auto Doors 2.0 uses new way to automate doors and was rewritten from scratch. New esp, new scripts, some new textures and meshes (well it's a edited vanilla actually)!

This mod addes craftable devices that will allow to automate your settlement doors. There are three main type of devices, some have few types:

  • Door Closing Mechanism - this device will automatically close opened door after some time. It's snapable to wall and should be placed as close to door as posible. When (re)placed script attached to this device will find door and start continuously scan it status.
  • Door Sensor - thee are to types of door sensors, one with internal power (Autonom) source and one that should be powered externally (External). External door sensor will not consume power unit but if not powered it will not work (mostly like a lamp). Both door sensors when attached to door will continuously scan area for actors (player or any other NPC) and when one approach to setted distance will open door, once actor leave range it will close door.
  • Keycard panel - there are three types of panels, each differed by color: blue, red, yellow. When attached to door it will continuously scan door status and if it closed will lock it to key. This door may be unlocked only through this keycard panel if actor have specific keycard. There are three keycard, by one for each panel type. Keycards craftable at chemlab under UTILITY category. Limited NPC support. Keycard panel will unlock door when NPC that has appropriate card in inventory but NPC may not understand it. May be when F4SE come out on full throttle there will be a way to change it.
  • Emergency Lockdown Mechanism - big metal device, supposed to be used on gates, but will also work with all other doors. Require power and wire connection. When powered on will close and lock gate (door) until power off.
  • Proximity sensor - works as automatic switch. Turns on when hostile or ally NPCs in its range, and turns off when targeted NPC out of range. Each sensor can be tweaked to react on hostiles or allies, also range can be increased or decreased. Require wire connection.

All devices reevaluate it target door when crafted and/or replaced. Script will scan area for doors in short range, if there several door found it will calculate nearest. You can find this devices in Power->Miscellaneous category in workshop menu. Depending on chosen option while installation mod support vanilla doors, Homemaker's doors and Snap'n Build doors. Mod also support pre-made vanilla doors from locations: Red Rocket, Hangman's AlleySanctuary, Tempines Bluff, Outpost Zimonja, Egret Tours Marina, Warwick Homestead, The Castle, Bunker Hill, Taffington Boathouse, Covenant, Starlight Drive In, Sunshine Tidings Co-Op, The Slog, Spectacle Island, Croup Manor, Kingsport Lighthouse, Finch Farm, Coastal Cottage."

"While working to update all of my mods for Nuka-World, I decided to use the Contraptions Workshop Weapon Racks to make it easy to access all of the different weapons. During this, I found a number of weapons that didn't go on the racks.

Description :
"The new material swap system works pretty well, but it looks like the developers forgot to actually apply some of the textures to the items. Specifically items with a pre-war and post-war version.

So far this fix includes:

  • Dirty Trench Coat now uses post-war textures on male characters (Vault-Tec Rep actually looks like he's supposed to now).
  • Dirty Army Helmet now uses correct textures when dropped or viewed from inside inventory.
  • Lab Coat uses correct textures on female characters.
  • Lots of Vault Suit fixes:
    • All of the clean vault suits actually use the correct Armor Addons now.
    • Female vault suits get their own material swaps, meaning the clean textures show up for female characters.
    • All the on-the-ground models (folded vault suits) use proper materials.
    • The trim texture doesn't look like it does much of anything but I swapped them anyway just in case.
    • All 1st Person (arm) models use proper textures.
    • These include Vault suits not actually in the game.
  • Vault-Tec Security Armor for Vault 111 (dirty and clean variants) uses V111 textures instead of V81 textures on ground and in preview.
  • Clean Vault-Tec Security Helmet now uses clean textures on ground and in preview.
  • The black paint scheme for robots using Sentry legs now uses the proper material.
  • Maybe more, don't know for sure."

Description :
"This is a re-package and re-release of Neanka's DEF_INV and DEF_HUD mods (with permission from Neanka) with a new consolidated installer. These are currently the last versions Neanka released and are provided as-is.

DEF_HUD


The HUD, or Head's Up Display, refers to the main game interface while adventuring. The HUD elements include HP, AP, Crit, XP, and Enemy HP meters, compass, dialogue, and messages. This mod allows customization of all of those elements. All elements can be moved, rotated and resized as desired. Some elements also have customization options like hiding parts of the element (HP tag on the HP meter for example).

There is also an optional feature to show scrap components beneath items when looting. This feature requires either the included scrap tags file or a similar file from your sorting mod (like VIS). If you use the included scrap tags file it will override any mod that changes scrap items (weight, components, names, etc).

This mod will conflict with any other mod that modifies the interface such as MyHUD or Pleasant UI, however all of the features provided by those mods can duplicated (and then some) with DEF_HUD.

DEF_INV


DEF_INV modifies the interface for container, barter and pipboy inventory screens with numerous improvements. Container and Barter screens have been increased in size to fill the screen. All of the remaining features require a sorting mod:

  • Sorting tags can be replaced with icons in all three screens.
  • New tabs are available in container and barter screens to limit what is displayed by category based on tags.
  • Additional tabs have been added to the Pipboy to move Notes and Holotapes to their own tabs based on tags.
  • Pipboy items can be rolled up into a single entry based on tags (example: all keys are collected in a single Key Ring entry which can be expanded as needed)."

HUD when you need. HIDE when you don't.

What does it let you do?

  1. Hides the HUD and lets you set the circumstances under which it re-apears.

  3. Toggle the HUD with an in game item.

"After spending way too many hours in the game, and leveling way up, the experience of hiking halfway across the map to a settlement just to put a silencer onto a gun, or lugging around a bunch of Desk Fans and Giddy Up Buttercup Legs just to scrap some screws out of them starts to lose its charm, especially in survival mode where carryweight is at a premium, and fast travel is disabled.

The Mobile Mechanic adds a craftable, portable workbench, with new meshes and textures, which allows you to do any kind of crafting, anywhere you want, including the ability to scrap junk into its core components, so you don’t have to lug around a bunch of heavy junk. It also includes a portable Power Armor bench! The sole survivor can craft mechanical turrets and all sorts of other high tech stuff, so I don’t think it’s unreasonable to believe they can use a screwdriver!

This is all balanced by way of the fact that the player can only craft things using resources or mods in their inventory, and that the bench itself and the additionally required crafting kits all have some weight to them, forcing you to be conscious of using up all your carry weight."

At start that was just a test, but I found it interesting enough to share it, but beware, because the result is not always good, specially for the pipboy light, especially in third person view. There are some artifacts in shadows and some weird effects because the character himself produces shadows. The HeadLamps shadows look much better, however.

Description :
"When a Power Armor piece is destroyed, it's really destroyed. No silly zero-weight, zero-health inventory entry, with the broken pieces of it on the ground.

Maybe now there can be some meaning and purpose to the ten jillion PA suits around the Commonwealth.

Fusion cores are also more rare, and will have a random charge - not be "almost always 100% and sometimes 50%." (I did not edit cells or touch the various placed cores.)

So why use it now?

Scarcity's Power Armor is much more protective than Vanilla PA, preventing more damage from reaching the player, and grants immunity to poison and acid, when in good condition. But as its condition degrades, so does its protection. A completely banged-up suit of Scarcity armor will protect you less than Vanilla PA.

And it will cost you more to repair.

You can no longer fix the most advanced infantry weapon ever created by slapping 4 tin cans together. Instead of "4 steel," repair requirements have been made meaningful, using better components.

Power Armor will protect you well - as long as you maintain it well. And maintaining it will no longer be trivial.

For example: if any piece goes red, then the suit's seals are broken, you get a warning alarm, and you lose the poison/acid immunity (along with the decreased damage resistance)."

They cannot switch to Fist weapons and 2H weapons automatically. Also, if I want them to use a shotgun at melee range and a rifle at long range, I cannot do so. Now to change all of this I made this mod. And while making it, I added few perks to make them strong and unique in their own way.

Features

This mod does the following to the companions:

  • Adds missing perks.

  • Adds utility perks.
  • Adds fall damage immunity.
  • Adds unlimited ammo and unbreakable power armor functionality.
  • Adds auto teleportation when out of combat.

Concealed Armors[edit | edit source]

Description :
"This mod adds a category to armor pieces called Visibility. At no cost you can dynamically modify armor pieces to be invisible. And you can change them back to visible whenever you want. You can imagine that the armor is concealed underneath your outfit. You can hide all your armor pieces, or only the ones you don't like. It's up to you. You can run around naked while still having full armor protection if you want.

The armor pieces affected are limited to the 5 armor pieces (chest, legs, and arms) of all the armor categories (leather, raider, metal, combat, synth) as well as the DC Guard Armor. It works for all 3 tiers of each armor, and it works fine with legendaries.

The armor pieces will stay invisible no matter who is wearing them so you can outfit your settlers in heavy combat armor without ruining their outfits.

This mod also adds armor appearance downgrading. You can change the appearance of a heavy armor piece to its medium or light version while leaving its stats the same. Think of it as partially concealed armor. The medium armor can be also changed to its light armor version."

Install Instructions :
This mod required repackaging using files from another mod. Below are step by step instructions on how to do this. Thanks to moriartykain and hlifehotdog.

  1. Download the Concealed Armor mod using the 'download manually' link
  2. Save or open the file, and extract the content to an easy to reach folder
  3. Delete 'ArmorKeywords.esm' from the folder you extracted the mod to
  4. Manually download the main file for this mod; at the time of writing this guide it is named 'Concealed Armor Season Pass AWKCR 3.x.x compability patch'
  5. Extract ConcealedArmor.esp to the folder where you extracted the first mod, and overwrite the file of the same name

Description :
"The default Pip-Boy light that has been in use since FO3 is an archaic tool. It emits a glow in all directions, including straight through your character. Similar games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Metro 2033 use an actual flashlight beam. It really helps elevate the atmosphere, not only because it's more realistic, but also because your vision cone is limited, creating more suspenseful gameplay."

Subway Runner[edit | edit source]

Subway Runner - v7 - by Ghostfc3s

Files to download :
  • MAIN FILES - Subway runner dynamic lighting (shadows) 7 fixed nav mesh culling issues and aggro range

Description :
"This mod connects 90% of the standard subway stations, and creates a network of subway tunnels filled with raiders, super mutants, synths and ghouls. Subway stations have been added throughout this network. With a focus on survival play through there are easy to access to beds for save points to bunk down for the night. This system once cleared out of enemies allows the player to move quickly across the wasteland. Be warned the battles to take back the network and make them safe for travel will be not an easy one.

The maps are fully nav meshed and companion friendly. I recommend using companion whistle to keep them close, especially if you are using more the one companion.

This mod is large and modifies some world spaces to allow access to the subway network. I to care to avoid settlement locations and areas that could conflict with other mods.

To gain access to Good Neighbour you must complete the quest “The Big Dig” otherwise the station is inaccessible from the surface. I did this as 3rd rail is often used by other modders as a player home."

Immersive Drumlin Diner - 2 - by Toon20s

  • MAIN FILES - ImmersiveDrumlinDiner v2 Final

Description :
"With the increase of raider activity and the growing volume of feral ghouls in Lexington, Trudy and her husband, Joe, had no other choice but to push north to protect their son Patrick. Losing her husband in a daring escape from being spotted by a group of raiders, they stumbled upon the Drumlin Diner; a decent building still intact. Trudy decided to stop running, she put Patrick to work and together they secured the building. She could not help but notice her son was growing distant as time went on. With the death of his father Patrick was constantly battling the images of that night in his head, struggling to keep sane. Out nearby in Concord, Patrick was scavenging for items to supply their shop, where he came across Wolfgang, a low end chem pusher. Feeling like there is nothing to lose, Patrick found himself convinced into trying out Jet for the first time. As time progressed so did his habit. Trudy feels that she is loosing the only thing that is worth living for, so she decided enough is enough and will no longer support his increasing habit.

As we all know, the vanilla version is completely bare and makes no actual sense on how the residents are inhabiting this area.

This simple overhaul changes the approach to the Drumlin Diner faction & area, adding immersive detail and a backstory to bring it all together. This mod only edit's the Drumlin Diner cell & faction, and may conflict with others that do so as well."

"You are carrying too much.", "You aren't strong enough to do that.", "Your family hates you.", "You're fat."

Well, fear not! This little mod changes the messages you get to first person. Never again shall you have the game telling you what you are and what you are doing. Now you will think these messages to yourself.

"The Brotherhood hates me.", "I'm hungry.", "<sigh> I'm still fat."

With this update I was able to find a lot of the missing messages that I had been looking for. No STRING files were abused or otherwise penetrated for this functionality. I will be doing a full update when the GECK drops in April to clean up any issues that I may come across with this mod.

This mod was inspired by "Think To Yourself Messages" for Skyrim by VorpalBlades. None of VorpalBlades' resources were used or harmed in the making of this mod. Built by me with FO4Edit.

Reverb and Ambiance Overhaul[edit | edit source]

CORE
Reverb and Ambiance Overhaul - 1.6e - by mm137

Files to download :
  • MAIN FILES - Reverb and Ambiance Overhaul - ALL DLC

Description :
"TL;DR: Makes weapon sounds more realistic for player and NPCs. Improves and balances ambiance and reverb to be more realistic and lively. Increases the diversity and dynamics of in-game sound. Fixes numerous issues. Lightweight and compatible with all sound replacer mods.


  • Adds two sliders in the Audio menu for Reverb and Ambiance. To make the sliders sticky, they default to 100%, slightly louder than vanilla (which is around 80-90%). "Ambiance" controls the volume of machinery hum, birds, water drips, insects, room tones, etc. It also controls in-game radios. "Reverb" simply controls the amount of reverberation - most noticeably gun trails, explosions, and things like reverb from Magnolia's singing - it does not turn off the actual reverb in the cell, just how certain things interact with it. Thus, you may hear some things like voices to a degree even at 0%. There is no way to completely remove it, and it would sound weird as hell anyway. Still, this allows you maximum flexibility.
  • Adds ambient sounds and reverb types to regions where they were absent, or fixes inappropriate or generic settings. For example, outdoor ambient sounds are removed in the vanilla game when you enter small shacks or other small structures with "faked" reverb settings - this mod fixes that. This makes the sound design of the game (which I quite like) denser and more "alive" feeling. Additionally, "one-shot" ambient sounds like wind gusts and creaking wood will now trigger more frequently.
  • Adds newly created ambient types to areas that used generic settings. Glowing Sea caves, sewer pipes, and elevators now no longer sound identical.
  • Adds vanilla ambient sounds to appropriate regions. This includes birds and occasionally cicadas during the day, crickets and howling dogs and wolves at night, etc.
  • Rebalances Indoor and Outdoor Ambiance. Vanilla is much louder indoors - this brings them closer to being even without totally changing the dynamic. Some incidental sounds have been made slightly louder.
  • Increases (or in some cases decreases) the amount of reverb certain sounds produce. Gunshots, exploding cars, and the like now behave much more realistically, and quieter sounds are somewhat tweaked as well on a case-by-case basis.
  • Fixes outdoor weapon trails to match the various weapons. In the vanilla game, all weapons use the same generic pistol and rifle sounds. With this mod, laser, plasma, and gamma weapons have unique outdoor reverb tails, along with unique-sounding weapons like the broadsider.
  • Rebalances NPC weapon sounds to be seamless with player sounds. What this means is that the tails now run through the same reverb

parameters as the player tails, rather than the more muted vanilla style. This really makes gun battles lively and loud, especially indoors.

  • NPCs now use unique outdoor tails, allowing youto distinguish ballistic and energy weapons from a great distance.
  • Different room types and areas behave differently. Vaults are now cavernous, echoey, and metallic. Wooden rooms are more muffled. Cinderblock is more sound-absorbent than metal, etc. The difference between small spaces and large ones is greater. Outdoors has as close to a simulated echo as the engine allows, letting you really feel the power of big guns and the power armor impact landing. Speaking of which...
  • Power armor footsteps and Impact Landing now reverberate a little more, for both player and NPCs. This is a small tweak, just barely noticeable, but it has a nice effect when surrounded by NPCs in Power Armor.
  • Increases attenuation for almost all reverb types. This allows sound to propagate over longer distances, whilst decreasing the distance in which sounds will play in "2D". A bullet whizzing next to your head will sound much different than a wide miss, or a hit.
  • Fixes the wimpy-sounding frag grenade. A home-brewed mix of the vanilla frag mixed with some of the frag mine and a hint of exploding car to add bass, this should work well with any sound replacer mod or with vanilla. Fun fact: exploding cars use the Skyrim fireball sound as their main layer.
  • All explosions are slightly louder, and will rumble a little more. Grenades of all types have been tweaked to emphasize their individual sounds (i.e. flames for Molotov, ice for cryo, electricity for pulse, and so on). If you have a subwoofer or good bass-heavy headphones, they will sound huge, but are in fact only a measly 3 db louder.
  • Larger creatures and NPCs produce more reverb and louder sounds. This is mostly improvements to the Deathclaw - the roar and stomp are much more impressive now. Mirelurk Queens, Behemoths, and Liberty Prime all make louder footsteps, etc.
  • Pip-boy radio behaves like in-game radios and will interact with the reverb of whatever cell you are in. Mucho immersivo. (Not affected by ambient slider).
  • In-game radios, PA systems, power armor speakers, pipboy radio, eyebot radio, TVs, intercoms, etc. have improved audio quality, making them

less tinny and easier to understand."

(Don't do this to living ones, you monster.) The textures are still somewhat crude, but will do for now. For some reason the icons still won't appear.

I've added two craftable bowls to trigger animations - one for drinking and one for sunning (aka just laying there). They may help people with issues with cats walking off and drowning."

"This mod adds 111 new lore-friendly, thematically appropriate songs to Diamond City Radio using JRavens' excellent Extra Tracks Pack - DIAMOND mod (included with Jvarnes' permission). It no longer modifies the base game's songs in any way.

The mod also disables Travis's introductions and segues into the default songs. Otherwise, Travis would tell you he's about to play Grandma Plays the Numbers and then play something else. Hopefully you've played the game enough to know all his song-specific jokes. Travis will continue to report the news as usual."

"Adds a standalone radio station with 100 country blues recordings from the 1920s-1940s. Shows up in your pip-boy as "Blues Radio". Compatible with OWR Boston! This mod was inspired by lugaruclone's wonderful "Radio Blues" mod for Fallout 3. Blind Lemon Jefferson, Bukka White, Charley Patton, Memphis Jug Band, Robert Johnson, Son House, Furry Lewis, and Big Joe Williams are just a few of the artists whose recordings are included in this station.

The atmosphere while exploring the wasteland is enhanced in a really unique way while listening to these old blues songs. I've also made slight adjustments to each track to make them sound more tinny, like they're actually being played through the pipboy. I believe this enhances the atmosphere even further."

Also included are a craftable radio for your settlements, as well as radios placed in 12 different raider bases and other appropriate locations across the map. I get that maybe punk never happened in Fallout, but I've made an effort to make sure it sounds at least "lore-plausible." That means no famous tracks, nothing included just because I liked it, but stylistic continuity above all else. Nothing post-1990, for instance.

All songs acquired through reputable public sources -- either rare unreleased recordings, demos, rough cuts, or simply stuff from the catalogs of bands like Crass or the Avengers whose performances have been made public on Archive.org."

Basement Living - 1.3 - by fadingsignal

Files to download :
  • MAIN FILES - Railroad HQ 1.2 FAR HARBOUR

Description :
"Ever wanted to take a break from the outside world, have a pause from the weather (and settlers?) Ever wanted to store your weapons, Power Armor, and other items in a secure space where they will be left alone? Look no further.

Basement Living adds 10 completely standalone basements & bunkers (interior cells) each with their own standalone workshops and craftable door hatches, allowing you to place/enter into them from any settlement you choose. They work just like Home Plate, so you can tear-down and decorate them however you like! This was done carefully, and methodically, and does not alter ANY existing settlements or interiors whatsoever, nor does it require any batch files, god mode, or other workarounds. They're mostly copies of vanilla cells, so you may recognize a few. I found a couple cool unused cells and copied those too, adding a few things and lighting touches.

Every interior features a fusebox with 100 power, and a control panel to disable/enable the default lighting, fog effects, and trash/debris! It may not seem like it, but this was three weeks of work to get all the elements set up and working (including replacing lots of floors and walls!) **WHEW!**

NO BATCH FILES. NO GOD MODE. NO RE-ASSIGNED SETTLEMENTS. FULLY STANDALONE.

These are real interior cells you will 'zone' into, just like vanilla interiors, which makes them a safe place from enemies, weather, and settlers when you feel the need to get away. They act just like a player home. There is a lot of stuff by default to scrap in each location to get you started, and it's easy to just climb up the hatch and grab materials from your main Settlement Workshop if you need more.

This uses vanilla keywords, and as such is fully compatible with Settlement Keywords.

Hatches to "teleport" to the basements are under the Special category. I may change where they are in the menu if there is enough feedback, or require Blueprints in your inventory to keep it clean.

How It Works :

  • Under Special you will find 10 new basement hatches, one for each unique basement. They require 10 metal, 10 wood, 10 concrete, to give the effect of "crafting" the basement, even though you're just crafting a "teleport" door to get in.
  • Place a hatch anywhere on the ground of your Settlement. I like to place these behind the house, or in a settlement bedroom.
  • Once placed, the basement workshop will automatically link or re-link to the settlement you're in
  • Open it up like any door, and you're now in the interior basement cell!
  • Enter into Workshop Mode to scrap the interior, and begin decorating it how you like!
  • Only one door to each basement can exist at a given time, so if you craft a second door to the same exact basement, the old one will just move to your location, and you will be notified where it moved from. See video for details.
  • The interior cell will remain 100% the same as you left it, so you can move the entrance doors around to any settlements with no issues or effects to the interiors.

Locations :

  • Root Cellar (small)
  • Basement Bunker (medium)
  • Fallout Shelter (small - my favorite)
  • Emergency Shelter (small)
  • Military Bunker Epsilon (small)

  • The interiors are mostly static, and cannot be edited.
  • There is no workbench for settlement building - What you see it what you get
  • The decoration is also my trademark static and cannot be moved around, can't have you ruining my carefully placed Feng Shui
  • While decoration is static, all the workstations and containers work and are safe to use
  • The workbenches like armour and weapon are linked to the RED ROCKET WORKBENCH so they share resources with the outside (cloud storage)
  • You can still use the OUTSIDE of the garage as normal settlement, build and invite settlers etc. Just they can't come inside. The only edits outside are the workbench location, adding some trees and cars and stuff.

The power armour workbench inside is mainly for leaving your armour at when you come home. It cannot be used for crafting as the animation is blocked by a wall. But if you activate it, it will move the power armour into the frame so it's all parked nice and tucked away.

I made this mod for myself, so it reflects my visions and preferences. It may not be for everyone.

The house is also full of items related to the game so it's more like an end-game house but you can get it any time, really.

  1. Complete the Nuka World Gauntlet and have access to the Fizztop Grille patio.
  2. Pick the lock of the safe located next to the bed on the Fizztop Grille patio. The key is located inside this safe. The safe has an Expert level lockpick which is unchanged from the vanilla game.

Once you unlock the safe and add the Overboss Hideaway Key to your inventory, your Pip Boy map is updated with a map marker showing the Hideaway location. Go there, unlock the door and enjoy your new home.

The mod promo video below will show you exactly what you need to do to get the key.

The Overboss Hideaway comes with a little backstory concerning Overboss Colter (your predecessor as Nuka World Overboss) and his connection with the house. It can be learned about by reading his journal entries on the Book Store Terminal inside the player home.

Location :

The Overboss Hideaway is located in Nuka World at the abandoned bookstore located south of the Nuka World Transit Station, and to the northeast of Evan’s Home.

Yeah, I know it’s located on the ass-end of Nuka World but I made this mod for my own game after finding the location and thinking it would make a great player home. I thought the elevated entrance was pretty cool, and decided to make use of it. The out-of-the way location gave rise to the little bit of lore I added to the terminal journal entries.

"I initially made this mod for my own game, but I thought others might have been as disappointed with the Fizztop Grille as I was. Yes, there are mods that will turn the Grille into a settlement, but...I really am not a fan of using workshop mode.

That being said, I’ve focused my work on the interior cell where I spend most of my time in-game, and have only made a few tweaks to the exterior patio cell.

While this is not a full-blown player home renovation, I would consider Fizztop Grille Enhancements to be something along the lines of “Player Home Lite.” I’ve added some features that should have been included by default, as well other features for my own game.

When I finally started playing the Nuka World DLC, I was a bit surprised and rather disappointed at how Bethesda seems to have dropped the ball in setting the Fizztop Grille up as a player home.

None of the workbenches were linked, and the beds didn’t even give the Well Rested bonus.

I decided at the very least, to link all the workbenches (interior and exterior) and fix the beds to give the Well Rested bonus. After that, I sort of got carried away and Fizztop Grille Enhancements is the result."

G'day, as you may be aware, my modding repertoire has to date been somewhat lacking in terms of creating something truly unique. I decided that my previous mod, Moses' Bunker while a great start to modding FO4, wasn't what I truly wanted a player home mod to be. Therefore I had an idea after playing through the Far Harbour DLC and being fascinated by 'The Vessel' in the nucleus. I thought This would make a perfect player home if done right.

After many weeks of trial and error I am proud to present 'Dauntless' as a player home that aims to achieve just that.

EDIT: I'm appreciating all the feedback and im glad theres been some helpful suggestions that i've been working into, and updating the mod over time.

  • Completely Custom Submarine Layout and interior and I mean down to every wall and Hallway that is TO SCALE and representative of the exterior model.
  • I can respect that for gameplay reasons, the interiors of 'The Vessel' and the 'Yangtze' are exaggerated in order to create a playable area. However I Felt that while in these interiors, you never really got the feeling of being underwater inside a submarine where you expect it to be cramped.
  • Custom Crafting Benches for Armor, Weapons, Chemistry, Cooking and Power Armor located throughout the ship so that every room has a purpose
  • Custom Storage that is LINKED so that all crafting components are nearby
  • Nav Meshed properly throughout
  • Surgery Chair For Customising Appearance
  • Barber chair and various other fixes to the port engine room"

  4. The ability for the player to fight for caps

It does not restore the Drinking Buddy quest to the Combat Zone because I'm not sure there's enough of that remaining in the files as is to do so. The bartender also doesn't work, so it's bring your own booze."

Still cool even if you don't. It's not too big so I made it as atmospheric as I could. I suggest taking your time and exploring. It might be a little tough at a spot or two.

Description :
"Originally you were to be a Sentinel and, ultimately become the leader of the BoS following Maxson's death. Through a quick patch I've restored this ending through integration into the game itself. NPCs will even acknowledge that the player used the Minutemen AND will also mention that you're a sentinel. This is truly a "cut" ending that allows for you to reach the end of both the Brotherhood and the Minutemen.

First complete the main quest for the minutemen, leaving the BoS intact. Then you will first find a note in Maxson's quarter's which will lead you to another note in the observation/air traffic control tower on the vertibird flight deck. Due to how the scripts work, you must leave and return to the Prydwen."

A Cannibal in Concord offers a new house location in Concord. If you're the type of person who likes to run & gun, THIS MOD IS NOT FOR YOU! Instead you will be looking around, moving objects etc to find your way through the house. This mod is based off a real cannibal by the name Albert Fish. Some of the short stories you'll find are made up, but some are quotes from the man himself (slightly altered to fit in with the lore).

This mod is now feature complete. The basement is now unlocked and free for you to explore. Enjoy!"

"Minutemen Supply Caches is a mod project i came up with the give the player an incentive after the Old Guns - Find the Armory quest given to you by the Minutemen. The original reward was some supplies to build the mortar and the Generals uniform, which was not enough for me personally.

This mod adds a sub-quest experience after you reach the end of the quest, by giving you a key to find and collect all the supply caches found throughout the commonwealth all having there own map markers and fast travel if you happen to stumble upon them before the quest,as with plans to add more locations and caches - this will sure to bring some reward and sense of accomplishment as you find these throughout the world. I have placed them in places also in which i felt there was no reward pay off in the area, such as Wildwood Cemetery.

The caches are settlement based, so they will contain within them various supplies such as wood - steel and cloth. Along with ammo and others. Basic foundations have been added to the mod, and more unique and varied items are to be added in the future."

Bountiful Boards[edit | edit source]

CORE
Bountiful Boards - 0.8.2 - by Gilbrilthor

Files to download :
  • MAIN FILES - Bountiful Boards

Description :
"I enjoyed the bounty board quests but found that they ended far too soon! So I made my first mod to fix that problem.

This mod does a couple of things related to bounties:

  • Fixes the vanilla bounties so that they repeat
  • It adds some time between the quests appearing
  • Allows two bounties to be accepted at one time
  • Adds four new quests that are repeatable

This mod adds some time between quests appearing. I felt that having them pop up one right after another broke a little of the immersion of having these posted by real people. Now, around 24 in-game hours must pass before a second one pops up.

This mod also allows a second bounty quest to be accepted while the first is outstanding. This was done so that you can keep two in your journal while you quest your way across the commonwealth until you get close to the spot with the quest.

Third, it adds new bounties to break up the monotony of only getting a few of them repeatedly.

  • Synths
  • Wildlife
  • Gunners
  • Children of Atom

For these new quests and their rewards, I added a mechanic that I felt was more immersive than placing caps on the body of the target. Instead, you will find the reward somewhere in Diamond City after you kill the target."

Maxwell's World[edit | edit source]

CORE
Maxwell's World - 1.07 - by Trainwiz

Files to download :
  • MAIN FILES - Main File 1.04
  • OPTIONAL FILES - Patch 1.07

Description :
"Located just a few miles from Boston, Maxwell’s World was once a place of joy. The biggest amusement park in the country, Mister Maxwell dedicated his fortunes and life to making everyone’s time at Maxwell’s World as happy as possible. Then the bombs fell and it all went to shit.

Now, the park lies open, shrouded in legend and danger. A thousand myths say that Maxwell hid a treasure, deep inside the control center of the park, just waiting to be reclaimed by some wasteland.

Unfortunately, a thousand more myths say that something happened to Maxwell’s World. They tell tales of shambling skeletons in the park that attack anything in sight, robots that find you and force-feed you hot dogs, of the rides coming to life and devouring those inside. There are some that say that Maxwell traded his soul to keep the park running, and not even the apocalypse stopped that. All anyone knows, is that whoever enters Maxwell’s World, never leaves. Because the park isn’t just open. It’s alive.

Maxwell’s World is my horror quest mod for Fallout 4, that finds the Sole Survivor trapped in the twisted amusement park known as Maxwell’s World. Teaming up with a group of survivors, the player leads a last ditch expedition through the park, in an attempt to uncover just what happened to the park, and how to escape.

Maxwell’s World features an emphasis on multiple paths and resource management! The park is malicious and out to claim your soul, and will happily give you cursed resources to further than end. Carefully manage what you’ve brought with you, or take the plunge and use the tainted weapons and aid that Maxwell gives you! Aspects of the quest change based on your dialogue as well. Take sides among your companions, learn their histories, uncover secrets, and watch as the end of park changes to match your perspective!

Features :

  • A seven part quest of survival and fright, with more than four different endings, that reacts and changes based on your choices during the main quest.
  • An entire new world space, Maxwell’s World, with over five completely different sections, hidden detail, and much much more.
  • Three new companions, fully voiced with their combat styles, and miniquests.
  • Brand new gameplay elements!
    • In Maxwell’s World, the things you find are tainted and can affect both enemies and the quest. Consume them if you dare, or focus on using the precious little non-cursed resources you brought with you!
    • A respawn system. Maxwell wants you to stay, and is content to kill and resurrect you over, and over, and over again. Watch your stimpaks and microfusion cells, because you won’t get them back!
    • Animated ride bosses! Malevolent bumper cars and serpentine rollercoasters are out to kill you! These juggernauts are scattered throughout the park, and can come to life at any time! Some say that there are weapons in the park that can deal with them, but you risk losing your soul to Maxwell’s influence!
    • The Presence. A mysterious entity that travels around the park, bringing the rides to life and causing machines to go haywire. Reroute power to different parts of the park to draw it away, or risk its wrath for the comforts electricity brings you!
    • Minigames! Shooting galleries, robot fights, and more
  • New enemies. Face off against deranged animatronics, living rides, ghoulified mascots, and the terrifying Revelers; those guests before you whose souls were claimed, now forever cursed to wander the park in great armies.
  • New weapons! From firework cannons, rayguns, mallets, to the triumphant return of Fallout 3's heavy incinerators.
  • A new clown paintjob for power armor."

But what I found there was just the same plane as Skylanes Flight 1981, and nothing special and innovative.

So, what is new in this mod?

  • new radioactive texture of a plane and airplane seats- new skeleton textures
  • much more details
  • A lot of glowing fungus: now, you will actually know where to find them, and with this, Skylanes Flight 1665 becomes useful after all. I don't think this will unbalance the game, since there are lot of them, it becomes a quite boring if you're trying to pick them all.
