Fallout 4 Mod Installation Help (Texture Optimization Project)

[ViperGravyDavey]

Thanks for checking out this post everybody! :smile: I am new to the Nexus community, and modding in general, and would appreciate some help installing my first mod. I have chosen the "Texture Optimization Project" by torcher as my first one. I looked up some tutorials on Gopher's YouTube channel and followed his instructions carefully (editing the .ini files, disabling read only, etc.). However, once I downloaded the mod and enabled it on NMM, when I launched Fallout there was no FPS difference (Running on low at around 25 - 29 in cities). I did have some strange things happen though. My character began holding his melee weapon like a rifle, and for a minute or two I had no AP bar and couldn't sprint. But those have only happened once. This leads me to the conclusion that this mod either is not compatible with my laptop (for whatever technical reason) or I installed something incorrectly. (I have downloaded the latest GPU drivers from Nvidia's site) Also, I have no other mods installed. Even more, Fallout doesn't launch for me in full screen mode (Thanks big B) , so I had to do the common fix where I edited the .ini file to change windowed mode to a 1920x1080 resolution. Thank you for taking the time to go over my problem and I apologize for any essential information I left out. Have a good day!
