umaros Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 I just installed FO4 on a new computer. I can play the vanilla game without problems, but when I open the NMM for FO4, I get an error saying "You have no FALLOUT 4 INI file." I have made the adjustments necessary to the Fallout custom ini and the prefs ini as well. Any suggestions?
Zanzuki93 Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 i am having the same issue and i reinstalled FO4 and it is still telling me i don't have Fallout 4 ini file :(
SMB92 Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Youve both double checked that NMM is pointing to the right folder locations?
umaros Posted May 3, 2016 Author Posted May 3, 2016 Yes, the FO4 directory is correct (for me, it's F:\Games\steamapps\common\Fallout 4). I had NMM rescan just in case, and it finds it correctly.
SMB92 Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 The INIs are located in Documents/My Games. I assume you meant that was fine as well. Weird stuff happening since this update, been a long time since I had to put up with bugs like this.
Wraiven Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 What I found to fix the issue is to start your game, make a new save and exit out
Deleted15964729User Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Sometimes NMM tries to read the inis from the default user directory instead of your username directory, probably due to an error in windows registry.
pst007x Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 NMM is broken, however due to EOL is no longer going to be fixed. I think it is best to manually install from now on due to this. There doesn't appear to be a fix, perhaps there is an issue with Win10 running Fallout4 from steam and NMM. It does work fine on Win7. For some reason, though the ini files are in the correct locations, NMM does not detect them, I am not a dev so fixing is not possible. If anyone does work this out please post an answer, appreciated.
