[SOLVED] FO4, Mouse/Keyboard/Gamepad cannot be used in the message box after major update

[wunima]

Summary in bullet points:
F4 update Steam,| Mods updated, | Controls in the main menu lost
- Controls as far as available, up to the pop-up window with the question: Continue starting? (Due to changed mods)

 

Hello dear community.

I have been using Nexusmods for years and have always been able to cope with any mod installation, strange instructions and have also been able to correct minor and major errors.

Now I have actually reached my limits and my patience has run out. (And this is my first time, I ask you for help)

Every now and then I start F4, ES5 or other games. Today was a mammoth task to complete. F4 latest patch.
Before the F4 update I was able to successfully start and play F4 in offline mode.
Then I started the Steam update, which involved countless updates to my mods.

Mods and game are now fine, BUT...

A new game can be successfully made to run. An old save game needs my confirmation (an ESP file was replaced with an ESM, so the old file is of course no longer there.)

SKSE, user interface and other mods are up to date.

• Vanilla F4 - New Game - works perfectly
• Modded F4 - New Game - works perfectly
• Vanilla F4 - started old save - problem
• Modded F4 - started old save - same problem.
• Modded F4 - New Game - Save / load - works fine
• Modded F4 - New Game - Save - Change any Mod - my problem has arisen

As I have read in other forums, there seems to be a script with a message in the background that prevents me from confirming this "YES" or "OK" button with the mouse / keyboard.
The author's suggestion was: Let the game run for 1-2 minutes, at some point you will have control. (I made 2 rolls in the oven and ate them afterwards, ... gave it 10-20 minutes)

I also connected a controller as a test and changed the INI accordingly.
Fallout4Prefs.ini (bGamepadEnable=0 ;pad off | bGamepadEnable=1 ;pad on)

 

In summary. I can't press YES or NO on the message that appears via mouse or keyboard or gamepad.

• The mouse can be moved freely.

• With the keyboard I can take screenshots and open the debug console and also enter data.

 

Do you have any suggestions for me that I can try?

 

Praise the nuke.

I'm not completely helpless and am still working on a solution.

I'm currently trying this mod, but it's not working perfectly. But maybe it will help someone else with a similar problem?

Me personally,  i would make a dummy esp and just sidestep the whole issue.

Something in the script of this mod

https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/48958?tab=files

allows mouse and keyboard control for the buttons.

I looked at the file but can't figure out what it is.

I'm going to keep this mod It's one of my 227 active mods and I'm happy now.
