paylink Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 (edited) I’ve been playing modded FO4 on PC for years now. Never really understood how to mod but followed the original set up instructions and eventually got a modded game going. Updates slowly eroded my playability, with frequent crashes over time, but I managed to keep playing anyway. That is until an update a couple months ago. At first, after that last update, the game couldn’t find my old saves. Found a post about copying and pasting old saves, and that worked for a while, but there is much corruption, even in the old saves. End result is that my game is no longer playable, even when I start a fresh game from scratch. Preston doesn’t ask me to get the Power Armor in the first meet up, just sits there not talking. Drinking from wells no longer refreshes thirst. Today I discovered I lost the entire furniture section of the build menu. There are so many problems such that I feel the need to re-install everything and start fresh. Last time I did this was like 7 years ago, and was kinda clueless then, so I’m really not sure what to do… especially after that last update. Point me in a direction? Is modded FO4 on PC still a playable thing or are others dead in the water too after that update? Edited February 15 by paylink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stg58fal Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 This is why I don't allow FO4 to update automatically, and hold off on doing so manually until there's enough mods that I want to run that require the most up to date version. What version are you on now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infamous95 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Its still playable. If the update broke your mods try updating F4SE. Also make sure your mods dont conflict because some of those errors sound like conflicts to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKE is an excellent workaround I have used for 2500 hrs worth of missing water pumps and machine gun turrets (which I now access via the SKE tab in build menu) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
