I can't get the FOV to change even after editing the 2 .ini files, is there another way?

Fallout 4 Configuration tool is similar to the ini editor in the OP, and also works well for FOV etc changes. You could try that.

Is there a tool to min-max the graphics settings for lower end machines. Godrays will not loving stop auto-activating and I'm running a 560Ti. I think I can drop a ton of the occulsion effects and get high-res textures without getting slowdown.

Anyone found something to zoom the action part of vats out once you've fired off your attacks? It's always so tight in close that all I see is an elbow of knee or wall.

The Tab key.

Idont know what pressing tab during vats shots does but I don't want to press it every time. Any other suggestions?

I'd have thought that changing the water visibility would be one of the first mods done but apparently not. Trying to see anything 5 inches past your face is almost impossible.

Turning off rain occlusion makes the water crystal clear for me.

I'm hoping Beth releases an HD/UHD texture pack like they did with skyrim. Also hoping Mod Organizer is fixed for x64 / FO4 soon.

I'm waiting for a proper chainsword mod, not the wimpy vanilla one. It looks like a toothpick in power armour.

This guy keeps his ini config program updated. The one in the OP hasn't been touched since Nov. I haven't used the one in the OP so I don't know if it's good, it's just outdated.

I'm just hoping they release an HD/4k texture pack because even on ultra a lot of the textures are stretched and blurry.

Maybe it's because I play in 4k but yeah, it's still not great to look at sometimes.

Not directly, no. But maybe this suits your needs?

Not really but that is cool. I was hoping that since there were already different unarmed upgrades on power armor that someone has played with what was there. I wonder how difficult it would be to mess with.

Well, in the search for an unarmed power armor mod I ended up creating one instead. All it does is increase the unarmed bonus on the hydraulic bracers upgrade from 15 to 90, which is just a number I pulled out of my rear end. The tesla bracers look a bit trickier to change because it is energy damage but I'll keep poking. I've never done any modding before, had fun would mod again.

e: Oh well that was a fun little exercise

Unarmed power armor damage changed from 10 to 30
Rusty knuckles bleed damage changed from 3 to 8
hydraulic bracers unarmed bonus changed from 15 to 30
tesla bracers energy damage changed from 45 to 60

I'm happy with that. I *think* all the changes are working, not 100% sure on the tesla bracers though.

Is there a list of mods that are compatible with 1.5? I don't want to have to go through all mine to find out.

You don't need to gently caress around adding * to txt files. Just do your MO poo poo as usual and when the game launches go into mods, log in and then press T, activate your mods and the game will restart and you're done.

I posted this on the last page but if you're still struggling to get your mods working, at least those that are compatible with 1.5 it's as simple as:

Because editing those .ini files did poo poo for me, but this worked.

Yeah editing the files wasn't working for me either so I did some googling and came up with that.

WHen I press T to go into my library, nothing is listed...

You still have to first enable your mods in MO like usual and they should be there. I've added almost all my old mods back, and it seems to work great for me. If .txt file editing works for you and this doesn't then that's cool.

I'm looking forward to someone making an alternate start mod where you can be synth. It won't make sense for the story but who cares!

I think the new patch broke Iron Rose's Weapon Balance Overhaul. Can anyone confirm that it's still working / not working for them?

Unless there has been another patch since 1.5 it is working for me. I haven't played for a couple days though.

I redownloaded mine from the Nexus after I cleaned everything up for 1.5. Make sure it's enabled in mo/nmm and either use the plugins. Txt method by putting an asterisk in front of the relevant esp or launch the game and enable it in the mod menu in the load order section, which is hotkey T by default.

Console is disabled in survival. Try starting a game on another difficulty and messing with it. You can bump it up to survival later.

Unless Arbitration was updated to work with the new survival update, it almost certainly does not work with the latest patch. You should use my "create your own difficulty rebalance" linked above.

I can't even add a first mod to anything.

I have the mod I get when I remove it from a piece of equipment, but it won't let me put it back on anything else.

I have it set to "normal" difficulty, which is the one that just lets me move the mods around.

If you're comfortable with the console it is super easy to take any weapon and add a legendary property to it.

It annoys me that the lever action reloads 5 bullets no matter how many you've used. But the animations are snappy and great so I forgive. Has anyone modded the damage up a bit for it yet?
