Um... Hey nexus... well I am brand new, just joined today. I have had Fallout 4 on Xbox since Launch and just decided to try out the PC version. Can someone kinda point me the right way in how to get nexus mods .. er, mods... to work with my Fallout 4?

 

Forgive me for noob questions, I am just genuinely not sure and I didn't see any obvious or pinned topics addressing it. I tried to download something and it said I needed a bunch of acronyms first... I found the post of acronym meanings, I just want to make sure I install everything right from the get-go

when I made my account here as directed, it said I needed to apply for premium also, which I did, as I see under my name here on the side, but when I go back to nexus mods, the "buy premium" button is there... plz don't tell me to download some of the mods that I need to buy premium membership both places...

Just so you know, Premium membership is 100% optional, as is being a "Supporter". You can be a member on the Nexus 100% for free if you want to. All mods are also free. Just thought I would make sure that's perfectly clear.

 

I suggest you look for tutorials by Gopher on YouTube, he is very helpful when it comes to modding your games. I'm not really sure how much Fallout 4 content he has, but he does have a wealth of videos on modding older Fallout titles and Skyrim. He also has quite a few videos on how to use the Nexus Mod Manager which should be helpful, just be sure he is talking about the more recent versions (with the "Virtual Install" folder).

yeah I am seeing this post quite some time after I originally made it and realize NOW that it was not very clear. What I had MEANT was that I came in seeing a lot of new acronyms that I was, at that time, unfamiliar with. which I now know are body mods and physics mods which I and others now take for granted (such as CBBE, etc.) , but people new to the site see as foreign. I eventually figured it out on my own, but thanks to those who did respond and yes, Gopher's videos were one of the big helps I found on my own to help me thru the mods. I am one of his subscribers now and have been since shortly after the original post here
