This kind of tool possible?

Hi nexus!,

 

Since there are alot of skilled programmers on this forum i thought id ask something.

 

I'm just wondering if its possible or not (and if anybody wants to do it) To create a basic program that scans your fallout 4 save .fos and generates a list of used console commands.

 

For example when scanning a save it looks for:

 

• Date used
• which console command

 

Also just curious what can happen if you use a console command? (i've heard that you should always make a backup save but personally i just delete the one where i used it on)

 

hope to hear if it's possible or not!

 

Cheers!

I seriously doubt the game actually stores this information into the save, so I'm certain this is impossible.

 

And, you have a weird idea about console commands, I think. They won't instantly breaking your save. It really depends on what you are manipulating.

Yeah that's why i was asking about the console commands,i have no idea how they can affect the game myself :P mostly only used the scale commands

 

Hopefully somebody knows where they are stored

The scale command, if used on buildable workshop objects, should be fine. You could also get Place Everywhere, it allows you to scale stuff without any commands.

 

And, I'm 99.999999% percent certain that the used commands are NOT stored anywhere. Especially not in the save. NOBODY will be able to make this tool for you.

 

I GUESS you could go to someone like the author of Better Console whenever he could add logging of sorts. That is, intercept each console command entered, and then actually store it somewhere. But otherwise, you are out of luck.
