SMB92

I had ugly shadows up close on Ultra, i changed the distance in Fallout.ini (not prefs) to double and now its nice within noticeable distance. Not sure if this was what you were looking for.

Program Files/Steam/common/fallout4/data

Apart from whatever scripted functionality needs to be extended, the menus are all SWF - Flash based. You can try to get a hold of those files from the bsas and edit them. Not sure how much you can do though.

EDIT - disregard, i found a new master INI located in the data folder. Started a thread about that instead. Not often i post for help but ive run into a weird problem. Ive downloaded the vault suit retex and like everyone else i added TEXTURES\ line to my Fallout.ini, however it still does not work. Ive checked for typos, regenerated the inis and tried again, tried older ArchiveInvalidation trick, set files to read only and not, checked install path etc etc. Even added the line to FalloutCustom and FalloutPrefs. I noticed Steam threw the beta update at me earlier tonight, which i thought was optional but anyway. Anybody else experiencing this?

I quite like it myself, sometimes its kinda weird like ill walk up to a shack in the woods and sorta peaceful music starts playing then raiders jump out lol. Thats the only discrepancy i have apart from eerie music not lining up with extremely easy gameplay.

You should know why it isn't here... Want me to say it out loud? Ok. Game is dumbed down for typical Bethesda fanboy. Everything that could cause any problems was removed - skills that required thinking before taking, different types of ammo, dialogue options that have any consequences, hardcore mode, item degradation and so on... Realy, I can't understand why they made game in post apocalyptic setting and removed everything that has anything to do with survivig in such environment. But, hey... I'm actualy surprised that they left radiation in place. Hehehe this i believe to be somewhat true, but then they have 6 difficulty levels with the hardest as "survival", yet nothing resemble the word. Im actually getting irradiated a lot but yeah the next game probably wont have it either. Survival will just mean "how long can you survive bullet sponge enemies"

Ill say this again, its not hate, its disappointment. You might not like to role play in a real hardcore survival environment, which is what the game is all about. While i will concur that raging over it is a bit silly, my opinion remains the same, it was in NV so why isnt it here.

I honestly think most of the work for this game is on the GPU side. If the renderer were a bottleneck you would see a single core maxed all the time. Ive yet to see one pass 75%, mind you sustain over 60% for a long period.

There are swords and knives. I came across some bastard sword called "General (chows?) Revenge" being sold by Trudy as a legendary star weapon. Too much too buy though. Found a cobat knife on a grill behind a house in Concord, i believe somewhere on the northside. +1 bows and crossbows

Adds a great level of realism to the survival mode imo, if one could disable the in game pipboy then this provides a nice challenge to the player. But yeah whats the point of playing survival anyway when nothing else even resembles the word. Well mostly anyway. Btw i got rid of a lot of z-fighting and that crap water LOD is a bit further with fsplitdistancemulti at 2.5

I highly appreciate this no take on PA, one of my favorite NV mods was Powered Power Armor. What you are showing here, well i wouldnt call it power armor but maybe a high tech slim suit or something. Or just "powered armor" lol.

Lololol 3 days its been out and it all about the mods. Seems we should just have Bethesda release their engine with no game and we just build on it. Anyhow not sure if this is was intentional but im not getting the map graphic on my pipboy app on my phone in or out of the pipboy. Markers and doors still appear but there is no zoom. Connection is 450mbps and using offline as well.

Curious this, i am having a blast with the pipe rifle variants and 10mm pistol. Havent used an auto weapon much at all, hardly ever throw a grenade either.

64hz bug is an age old problem with gamebyro where the engine runs at 64hz rather than a perfect 60. Usually fixed by Windowed mode or fps capper like ENB or RTSS. What happens is you get this microstutter everytime the engine goes up to 64fps and dives down again. Present in all Bethesda titles on Gamebyro

I had to disable borderless and use RTSS framecap of 60 to avoid 64hz bug.

Just loaded up the game to find my weapon icons in my favorites menu are outside their boxes a bit lol.

I find this hard to believe seems my 3960x @ 4.65ghz is only running at 20-40% with no cores maxed

I did the set timescale to 6 command and i dont think its working either.

You will be fine i believe, my gfx card and cpu is nearly idling to run this game. Well not quite but lol. Like, thats great performance is good, but i think they were a little too paranoid in the end.

Gods its a walk in the park. Why they would leave out all the hardcore options has got me blown away. In a world were survival is key. Sneaking is soooo easy, for example them tunnels, blow away some raiders and wait 5 seconds to be clear again. Despite tunnels carrying sound more. I notice that the raiders talk and argue about you but wtf.

My 980ti is nearly asleep at the wheel and cpu might as well be having a beer. Gpu sit around 40% but little higher sometimes outdoors and cpu about 20% and 37c/44c respectively. At Ultra. Lol. Even with more INI tweaks for shadows and lights. Gonna start playing ugrids 7. I hope there will be another HD pack for this game. I quite like the overall feel and a lot of the textures but i reckon i could easily run the trailer gfx.

I think they are mostly leaving things to modders and on that note watch the paid mods return with CK.

I dont get it either tbh. Somehow i keep expecting great things, indeed they do improve a lot, but a lot of times at the expense of some other part of the game. Cannot stop scratching my head over this Survival mode.

Yeah the pylons. Maybe at the end of the line youll need the bigger tower too like i did. I placed mine under the bridge. I would recommend fortifying it too, like make a tin shack with a turret or 2. Ive found that screws and adhesives are th3 most valuable/rare things, youll find enough copper to get you going if you look for it.

Thats all well and good to say that, if you havent been playing Bethesda titles since Morrowind or earlier.
