Background info: So if you think back to several months ago, you might remember that a bunch of users were having some severe texture smearing all over their games when Bethesda released a patch that didn't agree with many systems. Well, I've been experiencing an issue that is similar in its results but oddly different in cause. I re-downloaded the game recently in order to play the FROST mod, paired with many performance enhancing mods such as wasteland 512, upscale, and a somewhat broken installation of ultra-low textures mod (I started to install it, but NMM crashed during install and now many of the textures remain present in my game even though I deleted the mod through NMM afterwords.) See, what I'm about to say might shock you, but I've been having success gaming on my integrated Intel HD graphics card (with a modded PHDGD driver), and with many tweaks to the ini's and some low-res textures, I typically get upwards of 25-30 frames. Problem: Well, my game was running smoothly for the first hour or so of play without a hitch, until I encountered the smearing glitch. However, unlike previous cases of this glitch where it occurred everywhere no matter what you did, my problems arose when killing an enemy. Out of every 5 or so enemies that I killed, 1 of their corpses would become the source of the smearing. Horrible smearing would occur when the camera was pointed in the direction of one of these corpses, regardless of whether or not the corpse was blocked by a wall or prop. The only way to avoid the smearing would be to point the camera away from the corpse, even when you were separated from it by the walls of the area, or by simply leaving the area. Not only that, but the problem applies to my player character as well: Every time I die in game and the camera points to my ragdolling body, the smearing occurs. The problem shows up on both of the enemy types that I have encountered thus far (humans and feral ghouls), and I don't know how this problem will manifest itself if it occurs above ground because I haven't left the metro yet. Examples: Best example of a corpse as the source of the problem: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198123250552/screenshots/?appid=0&sort=newestfirst&browsefilter=myfiles&view=imagewall&privacy=14 Corpses which haven't caused a problem: Just some awful smearing caused by a corpse: Previous troubleshooting attempts: At first I thought it might be a gore texture issue, so I downloaded and installed "Gore Overhaul 3.0." The problem persisted. My next thought was that it might be an issue with the ragdoll physics or something, so I installed "Dead Body Collision" and "Ragdoll Collision," as well as "Realistic Ragdoll Force," to no avail. Finally, I figured it could be a problem with the skeletons, so I hunted for a skeleton replacer. Easier said then done. I finally found a new skeleton in the miscellaneous file section of the "Race Customizer" mod called "example skeleton" (just a goofy skeleton with a smaller head), but that didn't work either. Guys: I can still play the game with this problem, but combat becomes incredibly annoying if the camera happens to point towards a bugged corpse in the middle of a fight, and if bugged corpses are near an area with loot, forget it. I have no idea what the root of the problem is, and I want nothing more than to resolve this mess, so I ask the forum in hopes that someone will have any clue as to how to fix it. Please help me, and please don't be a dick about my poor Intel HD gpu, because it's run games that you would never imagine it could even boot up.

There is no fix that I know of for that...the newest patch is causing that graphical nightmare for a lot of people. The only way to 'fix' it is to throw Steam in offline mode and rollback to the last patch: http://www.speedrun.com/Fallout_4/thread/fvo80 HOLY s#*! YOU FIXED IT OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH DUDE I WANT TO GO RUN OUT INTO THE STREETS AND SHOUT ABOUT HOW HAPPY I AM THANK YOU SO MUCH

Please god someone send help. I've been experiencing this glitch for a few days now and my game is next to impossible to play because of... well... this: I'd played about ten hours before this happened and I was loving the game, but then one night it froze and when I woke up the next day, well... that. I have no Idea what's causing the problem; I thought it was the saves, but when I gave up all hope and tried to start a new game, the problem was still there. I tried validating my game cache, I tried uninstalling and re-installing the game, but nothing worked. I would try uninstalling all my mods and playing the game normally in hopes that the problem would go away, but the issue with that solution is my rig can't handle Fallout 4 even on low settings (it's a laptop with only 8 gigs of ram, an i5, and no graphics card). I need performance enhancing mods and enboost to even prevent it from crashing on launch. I know I'm a bit pathetic but I've tried everything in my knowledge and nothing's worked. If you want me to upload saves or a list of mods, I will. I will do anything to stop this madness. Good lord help me I just wanted to play some god damned Fallout 4 I didn't expect any of this emotional pain and anguish Jesus Christ.

(This opening sentence is gonna make me sound dumb, but hear me out plz:) I have one of those old weapon rack issues again! The thing is, my issue is different. The weapon rack still displays the little "Press E" HUD thing, but when I use it, it says that "You currently do not have a weapon equipped," when i blatantly do. This issue is causing other problems for me as well, because I use the popular "Loot and Degradation" mod, and whenever I hire a smith to temper my weapon, the only dialogue option is "Sorry, but I don't have any weapons equipped for you to temper," even when i do! I've looked all over the internet and i haven't found a solution Plz help D;
