hunteroutwest Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 So, I've finally broken my fallout 4 so bad that I have not clue how to fix it. Only specific controls respond and I can barley do anything in game. This issue first started in a heavily modded play-through of mine so I did the obvious "Let me get rid of some mods, see if I can fix stuff." I ended up getting rid of most of my mods and nothing changed. still broken controls. So then I did the next best thing "Well. let me start a new vanilla game and see what happens." still broken. "Let me re-install the game." still broken. "Let me go in and manually delete all fallout 4 related files." This took me about an hour and still no fix after re-install. I've got no clue what happened and am hoping to get some help here. if you need more details please ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stihspid Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 *Backup*Well, what I've done for 2015, 2016, and 2017 was to use Steam to create a backup install disc, it doesn't have to stick around forever, but say I go to steam's menu in the top left, backup & restore games, pick Fallout 4 or whatever game, set it up to create a compressed install disc of a size like ridiculous 60,000 Mb or so, cause I know I'm just going to use it briefly. Get the SSD CPU to write that compressed .exe install. Then use steam to remove & uninstall the game, however this is done with IObit Uninstaller 6, which launches to steam uninstall, then deep scans afterwards for any remaining mess, that's cleaned up. Now that this part is finished. Everything remaining inside the game's folders @ Libraries/Documents/My Games/Fallout4Users/ComputerName/AppData/Local/Fallout4Steam/Steamapps/common/Fallout 4 That is the whole shabang! The carrots to the nuts, grab all this ... "S***" Then compress it with something like WinRar, hell don't even have to mess with the options for WinRar very much, bampf! There's a compressed backup disc of mods. NMM will do this as well I think, but I just do it the old caveman way, that is if I got Blu-Ray & DVD disc writing capabilities which can be difficult to maintain. The community masses for this type of thing, has by an large moved to flash drive storage solutions, which are, a great solution considering the other various non-cloud storage solutions that one can end up stuck inside a never ending hell thereof.
