zlargo Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Alright, so my PC went down a while back and I had to replace the Hard Drive and did so with a new Solid State Drive. Fallout 4, and the Nexus mods and such, were on an external running USB 3, but it is a HDD, not an SSD. Anyway, long story short, is there a way to transfer the mods and everything to the SSD or do I have to redownload things?Any help would be much appreciated!

HeyYou Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) What I do in those cases, is install the base game, so you get all the pretty registry entries, and then copy/paste the entire folder from the old install, into it. You can skip the 'stock' bsa, and ba2 archives, and make it go faster. Then have steam verify game cache, and you should be good to go. If all you have is regular mods, nothing requiring FOSE, you can just do the data folder. And remember: DO NOT install steam into the Program Files directory. Create a new one. Call it C:\Games, install steam there. Edited June 18, 2017 by HeyYou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlargo Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 Thank you, on my new SSD, I already have Steam installed and another game on it, so I just moved the game itself, now I will do so with the mod files. Thank you very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
