FO4Edit FO4Edit is a simple and effective .esp editor, especially useful for fixing levelled-list conflicts (with weapon mods generally): Tweaks Fallout 4 Configuration Tool Set lots of options about the game. Annoyingly sets all your .ini files to read-only every time you save and exit. INI's are located in "My Documents\My Games\Fallout4\" ie.

This means that Fallout4Custom.ini should be the only .ini you need to edit (although Fallout4Prefs probably works just as well) Disable mouse acceleration: In the [Controls] section add/change this line: bMouseAcceleration=0 *Make fMouseHeadingYScale 2 times the amount of fMouseHeadingXScale if you want to remove mouse input Y-scaling* Change FOV from 70: [Display] fDefaultWorldFOV=90 fDefault1stPersonFOV=90 Turn off character glow: *this has the same effect as ENB's default "DisableFakeLights=true" setting* [General] sStartingConsoleCommand=cl off Maximize decals: [Display] fDecalLifetime=600.0000 fDecalLOD0=7000.0000 ;long distance bullet holes iMaxDecalsPerFrame=500 ;vanilla 250 [Decals] uMaxDecals=1000 ;vanilla 500 Pontificating Ass fucked around with this message at 17:32 on Apr 11, 2020 |

SeanBeansShako posted:THE BIG LIST OF GOOD FALLOUT 4 MODS ON NEXUS, CHECK HERE TO GET STRAIGHT TO THE MODS AND AVOID  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lcJW4O7g9w&t=464s This video shows updates to Ambient Occlusion and Indirect Lighting from the May 23rd 2016 update of ENB. ENB ENB is less necessary than it was for Skyrim, but this program will still add tweaks and fixes to Fallout 4's rendering system. Reshade If you want to change the visual look of the game, search on the nexus for a reshade preset. Reshade is a generic program that intercepts Direct3d calls to alter the renderer. *ENB and ReShade work fine together*  Shadow Boost The author of ENB noticed that shadow rendering was the biggest hitch in the rendering pipeline, so this mod was offshot from ENB. There are a few settings in ShadowBoost.ini that will adjust shadows if your fps falls below a certain number. ENBoost This is simply an .ini for ENB to use, presumably so systems with more RAM/VRAM can force to game to use larger memory pools, ideally to avoid HDD/SDD bottlenecking performance.  Weapon Balance Overhaul Makes pipeweapons more useful later on, balances all weapons away from the combat rifle being the most useful. Increased power of uniques. More Realistic Stealth and Sneaking I increased stealth durations for a more realistic feel. You need to use this and tell your friends on the nexus how cool it is. We are the Minutemen Minutemen overhaul so you might actually use that flaregun.  Vivid Fallout Replaces many textures with versions that are improved, or have their resolution lowered while retaining quality. Grasslands "Unhealthy" version adds some nice subtle grass color to the wasteland . True Storms or Vivid Weathers Very nice weather mods. Natural and Atmospheric Commonwealth (NAC) A natural-looking atmosphere overhaul that is not compatible with but includes many features of Darker Nights, True Storms, Vivid Weathers, Fr4nnson's Light Tweaks, Enhanced Lights and FX, and Fog Out. Darker Nights Dont forget the True Storms patch. Enhanced Color Correction Changes game variables for a better color balance (no ENB/ReShade required) Light Tweaks Reverb and Ambience Overhaul Turn down 'ambient volume' and 'reverb' sliders in audio menu for a less intense effect (these settings sometimes have problems saving)  Better Skylanes Flight 1981 Crash Site Improved unique crash site location. Believable Drumlin Diner Get version 1.0 for a lite experience. Better Quarry Sites Improved Quarry textures. Rebuilt Jamaica Plain Rebuilds the broken buildings. Nice but adds too much lag to the area. Better UFO Crash Site No Fog inside the Institute I haven't even been there but gently caress fog! Faction Housing Overhaul Player faction reward housing overhaul. Unique Uniques New textures for uniques and detachable unique mods.  More Where That Came From "Adds 111 new lore-friendly, thematically appropriate songs to Diamond City Radio" (also adds 'filler' files other mods can use to insert their own tracks) Elvani's Track Pack for Diamond City Radio Adds more tracks to Diamond City Radio, designed to work with More Where that Came From. Existence 2.0 An attempt to add a lore-friendly radio station hosted by a drat robot  Character These will only appear in character creation, and won't be applied to NPCs: Lots More Male Hairstyles Lots More Female Hairstyles Lots More Facial Hair Ponytail Hairstyles Eyes of Beauty Replacers: (will appear on every character) Appealing Moles Misc Enhanced Blood Ammo Retexture Adds more realistic and higher definition ammo boxes. Chem Redux Better looking chems. Recommended no-glow version. Fallout 4 HD Reworked HD versions of some annoyingly low-quality textures.  Armor and Weapon Keywords Community Resource (AWKCR) Serves as a base for many mods. You just need it. Armorsmith Extended Adds functionality to armorsmithing and serves as a base for many mods. CROSS Pre-war Cybernetics CROSS has a series of mods worth checking out especially if you like crafting.  Atomic Surgery Prettier companions. Great Actors Prettier companions and NPCs. Everyone's Best Friend Make Dogmeat not count as a companion.  Raider Overhaul Adds custom textures, equipment and raider types. Super Mutant Redux More super mutant types. Legendary Helmets Makes it so helmets can spawn with legendary effects. Levelled Spawns "Adds over 260 thought-out spawning points." More Spawns Adds 'thousands' of new spawns. War of the Commonwealth Adds an intense enemy spawning system that tends to spawn too many enemies which can cause crashes. The options system is terrible! NPCs Travel A mod that adds scripted NPC travellers. Spawning at the edge of the player's radius, they add dynamic life and skirmishes to the wasteland. Gunshots in the distance are often travellers that cross and fight. Sexy Hancock Make Hancock more memorable looking. And drat sexy.  Extended Dialogue Interface Replaces "Full Dialogue Interface." Custom and improved dialogue interface, which retrieves dialogue strings automatically. DEF UI A UI maximized for higher resolutions and probably the best overall UI Valacil's Item Sorting The new standard if you are looking for item sorting. Updated ICONLIBS2 for DEF_UI Requires DEF UI and Val's item sorting, adds icons next to item names in inventory. *Install Def_UI+Val+ICONLIBS2 for icons in inventory*  Settlement Keywords Expanded Standardized settlement keywords Better Settlers Run a holotape to adjust settler options including mortality.*Get the optional patch and required mods to add more clothes to settlers* Settler Management Software Run the holotape at a terminal to list and adjust settler roles. Immersive Vendors Better looking vendors. Quiter Settlements Less dumb noise in settlements. Longer Power Lines FFS Stairs Ladders Ramps Simple and effective Dialogue Settler Fix Makes settlers less likely to say something stupid Spring Cleaning or Scrap Everything Scrap almost everything in settlements. Apparently the 'cell reset/sprint bug' has been officially patched. Homemaker Another thorough building system. Stackable Concrete Foundations Functional Displays Adds some great displays with snap points. Invisible Furniture Add placeable markers for settlers to perform different actions. Place Everywhere Put stuff wherever you want, comes with hotkeys to help placement. Requires F4SE. Snappable Junk Fences Fix the gaps between junk pieces.

 Power Armor Fast Exit and Enter Increase speed of enter/exit power armor animations.  Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch Made by the long-time official unofficial modding team. Mo Betta Scrap Changes junk to be more reasonable and have ingredients you would expect. Realistic Ragdoll Force Makes ragdolls more realistic. Ragdoll Collision Dead bodies collide and can pile up. Also makes the character collide with bodies. Shell Rain Adjusts shell limits and durations so you can sperg out over the ruins of battle. Pipboy Shadows Changes the pipboy light type to cast shadows. Looks pretty cool but is actually dependant on what direction your pipboy is facing and is sometimes easily occluded. Shorter NPC Greeting Distance You flatter yourself, NPC. Faster Terminals Like anyone has ever seen a computer actually print out characters that slow. Button Lowered Weapons Kind of annoying to use Auto Lowered Weapons Use this or the other one, this works well but there is no way to keep your weapon up without aiming. Sleep or Save (SOS) For survival, choose to save on a bed instead of having to sleep. Prewar Safes Pipeweapons in prewar safes? I don't think so mister, perhaps you haven't considered my immersion. Carry Weight Tweaks Better carry weight settings Craftable Weapons Armor Clothing Ammo Junk Craft many more items for do-it-yourselfers Easy Lockpicking If you're tired of the minigame after it being in every Bethesda game Pontificating Ass fucked around with this message at 17:31 on Apr 11, 2020 |

Rasmussen posted:I really like wotc but it makes my game stutter a fair bit with all the extra NPCs spawning. A mod like Levelled Spawns on the other hand, is harmless to add as it adds some well-thought-out-spawn without using an bloated scripting system that spawns too many enemies. Does anyone have any experience with More Spawns?

Seashell Salesman posted:Is there any mod that will stop all the settlers in Sanctuary Hills from obsessively milling around the area where the workbench is? They have beds and jobs and stuff but when they aren't farming they just wanna bash their heads against the city wall near where the workbench is all night. Some of the programming surrounding the settlers is unforgivable, and I haven't seen mods to fix this behavior yet. If you use Better Settlers, there is an option to make settlers mortal (which they should have been off the bat but the AI is too stupid). I like to make it so they can die because finding their corpses and trying to figure out what happened is pretty funny and, let's be honest, they are disposable. However the thoughtful group at Bethesda made a settlement with a highly radioactive pool of water in the middle, and a spawnpoint for settlers that is right next to the highly radioactive water. This wouldn't be so bad if there wasn't only ONE point for settlers to spawn at, or there was some sort of system that moved them to things before you wake-up/fast travel to the location. But nope, they all spawn in one retard ball and then stand there, save for 1 or 2 wandering off, getting radiated and dying. They literally all spawn in one place and then don't react to the damage at all and die. Like c'mon, there are people being paid to design this poo poo? Anyway, the pile of bodies is still pretty funny.

Nah, I imagine ENBoost for FO4 was created because the engine is similar enough (to Skyrim's) that it's an easy hack to recreate. I'm pretty technically proficient, but I can still only barely make out the description page; as far as I can tell there are only one setting in ENBoost that does anything: VideoMemorySizeMb- A setting that hardcodes (into memory) a number that is a bizzare combination of VRAM + system RAM, for instance 16GB RAM users should set it to 10,000 but this still doesn't take into account VRAM size. The purpose of this hack is almost entirely to prevent pagefile usage so that HDD (or SSD too) speeds don't bottleneck performance. However, setting this value too high for your system will almost certainly create its own problems. The other settings don't seem to do much: DisableFakeLights - Probably a nice small performance fix that disables some lights on characters. Maybe the same as "cl off" ini setting? ApplyStabilityPatch - Goes back to Skyrim days, probably does not affect much if anything any more, author admits "is almost useless for some users" ForceVSync - Works different than the vsync that comes with the game apparently EnableFPSLimit - Like vsync, already in the game settings.

Holybat posted:I've been using Shadow Boost to try to get an OK framerate in Boston proper. One thing that's been driving me crazy though is that the game doesn't render shadows at close range until I'm right on top of them, and this is even in zones that my PC can normally handle fine. Does the game just not render shadows until you're right on top of them? And I mean more specifically shadows for things like tree branches?

I think the FOV setting is correct (Pipboy FOV vs game FOV), best to put those lines into Fallout4Custom.ini because they might be overwritten if you hard-edit Fallout4.ini. These are the full set of decal settings: [Display] iMaxSkinDecalsPerFrame=125 iMaxDecalsPerFrame=500 [Decals] uMaxDecals=1000 uMaxSkinDecals=200 uMaxSkinDecalPerActor=10 So there are a certain number of skin decals that can be drawn (125 per frame vs 200 max), and that total per frame is a subset of the max decals per frame (500). I changed some of these settings myself, but tried to double the numbers instead of messing with them too much. I might have set the max per actor to 10 and increased the total MaxSkinDecals, so it would max out at 20 characters with 10 blood splatters each (as opposed to 5 characters with 40 decals, or whatever the vanilla setting is). I'm sure these numbers can be tweaked better, but the idea was more overall decals. Can probably increase the max per actor, but then should also increase uMaxSkinDecals- thanks for the feedback though.

I don't think you can go wrong using the unofficial patch, there are likely lots of small quality-of-life improvements and a few spergy balance changes. In one way, it's an additional level of quality-assurance that will patch up tiny holes in the map, clipping errors, etc

beyonder posted:I've been plagued with very random CTDs, can happen whenever wherever. Trotting from A to B and pop, going from indoors to outdoors and vice versa etc so I can't pinpoint it. 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.

If you want to fix conflicts, use FO4Edit. To show only conflicts, load up your whole load order, and right click on the list and choose 'Apply filter for conflict losers' and this will narrow the list down to mod conflicts. After this, the best practice is to rearrange your mods in order to fix the conflicts that can be fixed that way; then create a new plugin to act as a patch that fixes conflicts using the methods describes in the "how do I merge weapon mod levelled lists?" video from the first post. Basically, you create a new plugin and drag each conflict cell over to the patch plugin, based on which data you think should take precedence. If you don't want to create a patch plugin (which will become reliant on having other .esp's loaded and could make removing mods difficult), you can just [go to conflict losers and] drag over the data to whichever mod is last in the load order, which will hard-modify the plugin. This is a pretty quick and simple fix, but you'll lose these changes if you ever update that mod. No program is going to be able to intelligently determine mod conflicts, other than glaring problems.
