Kanegasi Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 IIRC the mods folder only contains one file, which is a data file for tracking what Bethesda mods you have installed. If you don't install anything from the Beth database, the mods folder has no use. As for editing ini's, the only thing you need to do is the archive invalidation and blank path setting in Fallout4Custom.ini. You can safely ignore anything else a mod tells you to do like the /STRINGS, /TEXTURES, and so on they tell you to add. There are some settings though like cell sprinting that are needed.

bladexdsl Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) well that sux. cell sprinting? Edited May 19, 2016 by bladexdsl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanegasi Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 A lot of mods that edit world cells, like Spring Cleaning, somehow restrict sprinting through the world cells they edit. Using the fPlayerDisableSprintingLoadingCellDistance=0 setting in the custom ini file fixes this and is an example of the occasional ini edit actually needed by an individual mod irrelevant to modding in general.

Kanegasi Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 DLCList is strictly dlcs. Everything else is through plugins.txt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
