I'm trying to find a particular mod on the Nexus but it's probably my keywords that aren't doing the trick, maybe you can help me, thread. I'm just looking for a mod that will make lockpicking/hacking companions keep trying until they succeed instead of making me quickload until they happen to hit on whatever their percentage based chance is. I remember using a version that just covered Cait a long time ago, it was balanced by the fact that she could potentially use up all your lockpicks to crack a Master lock - that was a good mod.

Time for my weekly what looks good mod wise on the Nexus post. Later this week I will reformat the list of all my suggestions in the OP and strip away any dead mod stuff in the Google document I posted. Do you feel that radiation poisoning isn't deadly enough or miss how the older games did it and feel like your vanilla or survival game needs some edge? Classic Radiation Poisoning adds to the current system what you feel was missing and now you can learn to fear and hate the rad geiger counter sound all over again. Somebody made a really nice and lore friendly laser weapon. Check out the Watzz Electrics Gauss Rifle prototype! If you really like the formal 1930'/40's/50's style clothing angle in the game another modder is working on that angle and getting into making some detailed looking stuff. Sadly at the moment it seems male focused but maybe he'll expand? if you want to look like a dandy grandad check out 1930's Retro Fashion. More lore friendly clothing a modder decided to make a concept art outfit from the art book into the thing, the Wasteland Wayfarers Rags outfit look pretty drat good for just well rags. Female characters only. Remember the old days when the Brotherhood of Steel didn't wear Cheeto orange? I do. Somebody else did and decided to reskin the recon looking flightsuit armor to match that classic colour scheme. Also are you bothered that the Marine combat armor have no neck guard and fear for your characters fat exposed neck flesh? there is a mod for that. Marine Armor Helmet Neck Cover is pretty self explainatory. Back when FNV was hot poo poo we got a lot of crazy Radio Stations, some of them novelty but good ones. At last they ported over 8-Bit Hits! listen to a Super Mutant shut in blast video game chipset music from your pipboy once more! Seen those old electric lines and wish you could use them for your settlement? well now you can with the Access Pre-War Power Lines mod.

Has anyone found a good set of mods that fix most of the banal and boring parts about F4 that made me put it down after the first 4 hours? I'm looking for mainly ease of use mods and anything that streamlines or eliminates the tedium of the settlement management. I don't want to change to many of the base game settings but I'd prefer if I didn't have to spend so much time hunting for specific parts and flipping the gently caress out because the settlers aren't doing what I need and the loving power lines are a pain in the rear end to set up.

A good mod would simply be one where all the settlements are already unlocked and have basic stuff down so you can just cherry pick and manage/decorate to your hearts content.

I have no idea what I did but my Fallout 4 no longer starts, it boots me back to launcher before it even attempts to start, I'm not sure if this is a mod issue or a load order issue but I'm fairly certain its mod related as it ran with some mods earlier, heres the load order: http://imgur.com/tHu0Cy2

Run it through F04edit to see which file is causing you issues.

Go through the list in NMM and see if any mods reference a master file that isn't present in your load order. Also try disabling parts of your modlist at a time.

So here is a mod that makes settlement management not quite as repetitive and makes them somewhat self sufficient from the start. http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/19577/ It's not completely hands off yet, but the biggest thing it does is make it so all settlements have their food and water needs met already when you take over them. Since it's the only mod of its kind that I'm aware of, and it gets asked a lot, figured I'd share. Hopefully he keeps developing it.

I'm looking for mainly ease of use mods and anything that streamlines or eliminates the tedium of the settlement management. Serious post: Look for Cheat Terminal on the nexus. It gives you a holotape that you can slap right into the ol' Pip-Boy. You can access various cheats including god mode, damage multipliers, and caps. You can also get weapons / ammo. But specifically to your question is that you can also add crafting components on demand. All of this you can do with the console, but if you're doing anything less cheaty than "` tgm [ENTER]" this is just way more convenient than looking up hex codes. Everything else with settlements can be simplified by simply never turning on a settlement beacon the entire game - seriously. Good ones for ease of use: 1, 2. easy lockpicking & easy hacking (these are two mods): essentially this saves you bobby pins and lockout time. You still require the relevant perk points for a given lock or terminal difficulty; you just don't have to screw around with the no-penalty guesswork. 3. Faster terminal displays 4. Longer power lines 5, 6. Armorsmith Extended, AWKCR (two mods that go together like PB & J) 7. Improved map with visible roads 8. Unofficial FO4 patch 9. No negative affinity and no affinity cooldown (this totally depends on your mentality towards FO4 as an "RPG") 10. Rich merchants 11. Scrap Everything (just be careful what you point at) 12. Manufacturing Extended - if you use manufacturing *at all,* this is needed 13. Loot Detector - Scrapper perk corpse highlighting (amazing mod) and that's about it.

That's a pretty good list. A few I'd add if you want to go further are Snap and build. Uncapped settlement surplus to allow you massive increases in building capacity. Better Settlers Scrap dead things (makes a lot of fertiliser from corpses in settlements) Easy Hacking (if you hate the terminal mini-game) Companions Infinite Ammo.

GRINDCORE MEGGIDO posted:Did you hit the bug where you can't assign settlers? Yeah, that and no new settlers arriving at any place with a beacon. The guy who made Don't Call Me Settler called out the patch as the culprit and uploaded a script fix, but it doesn't seem to work retrospectively. According to a Unofficial Patch thread that I can't seem to find, the underlying issue was patched out by Bethesda a while ago. No idea why poo poo like that is still happening.

Let us see what the Nexus gremlins have done this week shall we? Another hide your helmet when talking to dudes mod, I think this one does all the work putting it back on when your done with the conversation too. Somebody reskinned the Vault Security armor to more look more durable in line with the military combat armour than the sports protection look it has in the vanilla game. The Ghoul Mask from Fallout 3 returns! rad protection and once more you can be friends with Ferals! Ever felt bad for the Railroad and wanted to spare them from doom in the storyline while working for the Institute? well with this mod that is now possible. Spare the Railroad now. For those who like weird gimmick characters somebody had made a male Arnie face preset so now you too can drive Diamond City into debtors prison. O.U.C.H is an interesting one that adds a visual effect to being shot with several levels that can be tweaked for player comfort. Perfect for the Survival Mode playthrough. And finally somebody has made a series of Forsaken Institute Lady Assassin Outfits if that is your thing.

KaiserSchnitzel posted:Serious post: Tgm gives you infinite resources for settlement building fyi. I find using this allows me to a)build enjoyable settlements and b) gather enough scrap so that I can upgrade my gear, but not enough so i can constantly upgrade everything. This means i get cool settlements filled with mannequins dressed like vault dwellers while also getting the minor enjoyment of finding a stash of aluminum cans.

I always felt it was a little dumb to wipe out the Railroad. Synths will escape, it's better to know where they are going than not. Occasionally send out a Courser to scoop one back up, but other than that ignore it.

Yeah, but the institute are textbook 'spergs : teleportation, we can do that, build machines that emulate humans almost perfectly, we can do that, interacting with anything non-institute, TTTTT Triggered. when actually, the first two can make the last one a peice of cake.

Wouldn't it make sense to replace all the Railroad members with Synths? You can even keep recruiting. Just the new members get taken into the headquarters for the first time, murdered, and replaced with a synth.

Wrong thread, sorry. (The previous thing I edited away) But I will ask my previous question again. Is there a way to enable artillery without doing the appropriate missions? TLC in and picking up the blueprint doesn't work, setting quest stage doesn't work.

I get crashes from time to time, and my load order is pretty much just the full dialogue interface, unofficial patch. achievements plus a few outfit mods. It's probably just the game being buggy.

I think that's basically how they wanted to approach things, but then synths started escaping and they had to send out coursers to scoop up their property, and the railroad got involved. I want to point out that the head of Robotics in the institute was openly considering the idea that gen 3 synths were real people and that Bethesda missed a huge opportunity with letting the player control the Institute but make them pro-synth freedom.

Yeah, but bethesda is not obsidian, nor did they learn anything from the popularity of NV. there's a point in practically all beth's games where you slide along on rails to the inevitable conclusion.

Can anyone spot anything funky or a mod that could cause it in the load order? First, try to remember when the crashes started, sort your mods by date, and see if any recent mods seem problematic or just remove recently added mods. Also check the date on mods to see if any are particularly out-of-date and should be updated. Second, temporarily uninstall any mods that have an effect that is more likely to cause crashes than others. For instance, uninstall True Storms and its patches since they can activate at any time. Mods that to enemy levelled lists are worth checking, and any mods that rely on scripting. Third, temporarily uninstall huge chunks or your mod list, like 1/4 of your mod list, and go test your game. You can leave on mods that won't cause crashes (like 20x terminal display or hush_dogmeat are in no way going to cause random crashes). If there are still crashes, uninstall more mods, if the crashes have stopped, narrow down the mods you uninstalled to try to figure out which was causing crashes.
