Mileysmilez Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I'm really bad at searching on the nexus, but as the title says...is there any place where I can get modpacks? or maybe just a collection of the best mods so far or something similar :) I out of the loop with FO4 mods and I never feel that using the top 100 list gets you the best stuff. Thanks in advance! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisnpuppy Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Authors don't typically make mod packs. If someone merges mods they would have to have the permission to do so from every author. That doesn't happen typically. If you want to know the more popular mods searching the top 100 on the Fallout 4 site or you can even check the top downloads vs endorsed. You can do this in a time range or for all mods from the beginning. You can also sort by category and use filters to help you narrow down your search. At the top of the page where there search is there is an advanced search option. You can also do this for each category (which leads you to some good mods per category instead of the top 100 over all of them.) There is also easy access to the top files in the downloads tab. I realize this is a bit overwhelming but learning the proper search functions and trying mods individually is usually a better bet in the long haul. These games are complicated and are not perhaps working in a way that is conducive to creating and running packs like you see in other games like Minecraft. Modding is not for the faint of heart. Always back up your saves and only try one mod at a time in case something goes wrong. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethreon Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I'd like to see someone crazy enough to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember there were plenty of modpacks for the previous bethesda games so I figured there might be some for this aswell..maybe it's too early tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cartman1975 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I am doing this for some mods for myself. I have one PA-Paint mod installed and i integrate all interesting paint mods in there. Also i have a build mod with an own menu where i merge some smaller workshop mods and my own objects. But i would never do that for the public as you have to ask each modder for permission, check for updates and bugs, etc. Maybe somebody will do this when all DLCs are out and no further patches for the maingame and the mods will be released. At the moment, there are to many changes and still so many other interesting things to mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damanding Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I'm not crazy enough to try and get permission (or do it without) to create mod packs, but I am about to reach the limit of mods I can run. How do I make my own mod merges for personal use? Is there a tutorial somewhere on this? I know that there are some mods that are complex enough to just not mess with/merge, especially those with scripting. But I have a number of very basic mods which are plain texture replacers, things like that that could be safely merged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
