bszylard Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 So, it's been now my third play through and i must say i still love the game. And thanks to the modding community on the Nexus page i will keep playing for months to come. Now it might sound cheesy what comes next but reading through these forums and obviously a lot of posts on the different mod pages i just feel that i have to share my playing and modding experience as someone who loves Bethesda's games. I logged more than 3000 hours on Skyrim - heavily modded -, and i'm nearing 350 hours on FO4. I also have several hundred hours on FO3 and FNV, pretty much heavily modded too. My top reason for at least at the moment - favoring FO4 is the incredible stability the game showed me.Now, i don't have a serious gaming PC, i play always on my laptop attached to a 49" tv+sound system through the HDMI connection to have also 5.1 sound not just the big screen. I don't have a very beefy laptop -specs are here: I7 4720Q 2,6-3,4GHz; 16GB RAM, Nvidia Gefore 960M 4GB DDR5 and 1TB SSHD.For FO4, i run always the game on 1920*1080 resolution, having textures on ultra settings, the other settings are medium or high. Since i'm playing the game from november last year i had maybe 3 or 4 CTD. Crazy no? :) In my all time favorite Skyrim i have that amount of CTD's within a few hours. True, i'm not using so many mods, espeially not scripted mods with FO4 since there's still no GECK.But until now this game proved to be one of the most stable Bethesda release for me, and i have played and playing all of their open world RPG.Here's a list of my plugins that i'm using in my game now, it's pretty much the same that i used for my second full play through as well: Fallout4.esmArbitration - Resources.esmArmorKeywords.esmHomemaker.esmSettlementKeywords.esmRobot Home Defence.esmSpringCleaning.esmVendorCaps_1000.espWeaponry Overhaul.espTrueStormsFO4.espTrueStormsFO4-LITE-Audio.espTrueStormsFO4-ClimateSettings.espTrueStormsFO4-Performance-Fog.espSimple Intersection.espdD-Action Ragdoll Force.espdD-Reduced Explosion Force.espDeadBodyCollision.espMore Where That Came From Diamond City.espBuildable_PAFrame_v1.3.espCuts and Blunts 3.0.espValdacilsItemSorting-Mods.espfree_downgrades.espWeaponRacks.espWeaponRacks-Weapons-WO.espArbitration - Button Lowered Weapons.espWET Clearer.espValdacilsItemSorting-Misc.espkeyNuker_keys_en.espMore Realistic Knockdown.espRagdollCollision.espPerkChartPoster.espCutWeaponModsRestored.espCutWeaponModsRestored-UniqueWeaponModRecipes.espLore Friendly Posters.espProperStoreAnimation.espCrafting Workbench.espCrafting Workbenches - Ammo.espCrafting Workbenches - Ammo Special.espCrafting Workbenches - Power Armor.espCrafting Workbenches - Pre War and Manufactured.espAnS Wearable Backpacks and Pouches.espAnS Wearable Backpacks and Pouches - Ballistic Weave.espAnS Wearable Backpacks and Pouches - Power Armor Carry Capacity.espAnS Wearable Backpacks and Pouches - AWKCR.espElvani's Track Pack - FIX.espDD_Power_armor_option.espLongerHeadlampLightWithShadows2x.espASCOCait06.espASCOCurie04.espASCODanse01.espASCOPiper04.espArmorsmith Extended.espMove that Workbench!.espVasstek_Vaultsuit.espNanohelmet.espHomemaker - SK Integration Patch.espHomemaker - Unlocked Institute Objects SK.espRobot Home Defence - Settlement Keywords.espOCDispenser.espOCDecorator.espDD_AIO_I_Hate_You_All.espDD_bobblehead_stands.espCBBE.espLongerAreaRespawn.espSkjAlert_RS+.espRemove Interior Fog.espEli_ArmourCollection.espArmorsmith Elianora Extended.espSC_ExpandedScrapList.espM2216.espOWR.espdef_inv_scrap_en.espValdacilsItemSorting-Junk+DEF_INV.espValdacilsItemSorting-NotJunk.espWeaponRacks-Tools-Vanilla.espkeyNuker_cards_en.espR91M.espBetterJunkFences.espValdacilsItemSorting-AidReducedWeight.espValdacilsItemSorting-Ammo.espValdacilsItemSorting-ArmorByClass.espValdacilsItemSorting-CosmeticsByClass.espValdacilsItemSorting-ExplosivesSortBottom.espValdacilsItemSorting-Perks.espValdacilsItemSorting-Weapons.espVIS-PatchWeaponRacks-Tools+DEF_INV.esp Obviously i have a bit more mods, the ones that don't have plugins, like Texture Optimization, A Little Bit of Green, all the Vivid releases and Better New Roads are not listed by NMM. All in all i run permanently just a bit more than 100 mods. What actually convinced me about the game's stability is that as soon as a mod is updated i update as well. If i see something new on the Nexus page i'll try it out. Since the game is demanding it, i pretty much live with quicksaves... So i'm doing a lot of stuff that so many are recommending not to :)However, i always take care that every mod installation it's happening as the author recommended. If i have a small hick-up i search everything about it until i find a solution. If it's the case i ask the mod authors and all of them are helpful.I don't know if i'm the only one who's actually so - let's say - satisfied but i surely hope there are others as well, who at least mostly agree with me.I would like to see comments if this is the case or no. And if anyone have questions about how to make some staff that i have in my load order to make work, i will try my best to help. That's why Nexus is a community i think :)Cheers everyone :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wax2k Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 So... why exactly did you post this in Technical Support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bszylard Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Stability is a technical issue i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wax2k Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) I don't seem to get it... you claim to have no issues. You don't ask for tech help and it's not something that could be called a guide to help with tech issues. If it's just about you being interested if others have tech issues, why not just browse the Nexus, Steam and Bethesda forums? Same holds true, if you want to help people with tech issues. It's not that difficult to find users that do have tech issues :wink: As it is now, at least to me, it seems like an attempt to show off. But maybe that's just me.

bszylard Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Did not meant to be a show off. Just a simple statement. If you really think that i'll simply remove the post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wax2k Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) You don't have to... it's just an opinion... or even just a personal impression. I am not the one to decide if it fits here. I was just curious, because I don't get the reason :wink: Edited January 31, 2016 by wax2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bszylard Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 I did meant as an advice, or maybe just something positive about the way how we all mod our games. And my main - subjective - reason for posting it is the numerous posts here, and on other forums mentioned by you as well that so many seems to have problems. From this point of view it might look like a show off of course :) But if there is a way to prove that things are working then why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wax2k Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I prefer to prove it by helping them to get it to work :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bszylard Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 I'm more than happy to help! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wax2k Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Well then don't sit there and wait for them to come! Get to work! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
