[Oswaldo192]

[ad3d0]

Actually you have answer in your question. Probably because it's update is broken ;)

[Oswaldo192]

there is not other place i can get it? the one in the gihub doesn't seen to work with fallout 4

Usually you can get it on the Fallout 4 page but they took it down it seems for a virus upload or something

 

 

You can safely get it here for now: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/scuvwwc6ovzagmd/AAD1TodBAwGQTuV1-4Z2d0sCa?dl=0

Its taken down because fleckster who was maintaining the mod page has had his account compromised, and someone else is now uploading malware in his name .. So LOOT v 300 was not created by Wrinklyninja, and you should be taking all measures to ensure your machine is clean of any virus

And the response by Millenia ( I think Micalov started investigating the file uploader )

 

And pStyl3 was the one who initially took action http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1601446-rel-loot-thread-23/?do=findComment&comment=25129160

 

Wrinklyninja has now been given admin control over the mod page, which I would imagine is still being investigated so that all evidence of what happened is logged.

 

Edit : Also if you go to the mod page http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/5310/?

 

Yes its hidden, but if you read why it is hidden, then you will find a link to where else you can download it safely.

It doesn't appear to be hidden now, so I assume it's safe? It's weird though that I didn't read any mention on the first page letting people know it's safe though which makes me a bit nervous.

The LOOT for FO4 is still considered in early beta (test) version, and not considered stable yet by the LOOT team. Please take that into account when it does something totally unexpected or puts some mod in a completely unexpected location.

 

That said, I have been using the snapshot builds and they have worked fairly well for me so far. Your mileage may vary however. :cool:

Like bben46 said, your mileage may vary. For me, loot only messed up my load order.

Actually, I mentioned the removal of the malicous file and the upload of the proper new snapshot here. If you view LOOT's Nexus page and click on the "Posts" tab, you should see the comment still on the first page (as of writing this post). So yes, the new file is safe. :smile:

Please explain in detail what you mean by that. If it is true, that you discovered something going wrong, then it would be great if you could help to tackle the issue. In order for that to happen, we would need to know which version of LOOT you were using, what your load order was/is and what in your opinion should have been sorted differently.
