Hello folks,

I just noticed the new launcher disables mods on start and cannot be fixed using the earlier .ini edit. There is a way how ever to activate your mods using NMM.

from my Steam thread:

I HAVE SOLVED IT BROTHERS!

1) Open Nexus Mod Manager (you will need this!)
2) launch your game, wait in the launcher before starting the game.
3) Renable the mods using Nexus Mod Manager (you will notice launching disables them)
4) Hit play.
5) Play your game, you paid for your way!

Bring it Bethesda, BRING IT!

Good luck.

Thank you very much, I just ran into this problem only a minute ago and you solved it.

Fallout 4 Script Extender bypasses the launcher, and its the launcher that disables the mods.

Some mods dont work thou, they need to be updated

it also disables the mod manager in the launcher

Just keep a copy of the old fallout4launcher.exe outside of steam before you update, and replace the new launcher with the old.

My guess is that should work :/

This is such an annoying "feature".

Very pointless, but I'm guessing they're trying to stifle modding before the tools are released.

Can confirm that this does in fact work

Fallout4Launcher.exe
