Time to replay with mods @ end of year 2018

[Excoriated]

Hey :smile:

 

I am downloading Fallout 4 again and want to replay the game, with mods. Maybe you can recommend some mods for me, here's what I am looking for:

 

• HD - best Graphics (GTX 1080 TI) @1080p
• Semi Lore friendly ... nudity is okay
• Bug fixes
• Cool and functional new feature mods

Last time I played was 1 year ago maybe. I am also trying out Vortex. Maybe you can recommend some mods so I can build a good and - hopefully - bug less modded experience :smile:

 

Regards,

Well, for bugfixes, Arthmoor's unofficial patch is almost a must.

 

Other than that, I would say it really depends on your own tastes and playstyle. E.g., I could recommend manufacturing mods, for example, but they won't do much for you if you just buy your ammo and stuff instead of watching a machine stamp them out, 10 rounds at a time every few seconds. You get the idea.

Hey thanks for the tip with Arthmoor's patch.

 

But I think I have to fix an issue with Vortex first ... tried some mods but CBBE doesn't work and all the others too... x_X

I wouldn't know about Vortex. I haven't even seen it yet :tongue:

 

Personally I just unpack things manually. It's not that hard if you have even minimal idea what you're doing. And if not, well, you can always ask.

 

Mind you, I can definitely see the advantage of having a mod manager if you just want a no-frills ticking mods on and off, but if you say it's not working for you, I'd try taking matters into my own hands.

 

I mean, absolute worst case scenario, you can just delete the data directory if you've totally borked your game, and then tell Steam to verify the integrity of game files. And then it will download the vanilla data directory all over again.

 

Or I suppose you could check out the built-in mod manager in the game, that can pull the mods off Bethesda's own site. I swear it's the worst mod manager ever, but if nothing else works and you absolutely need one... well, I guess the best that can be said is that it IS one. And at the very least the unofficial patch IS in there.

 

 

As for CBBE, well, while it does look good, it's also the easiest to refrain from, if you just can't get it working. There are enough outfits for the vanilla body too. I didn't have any particular problems with installing it, mind you, but as I was saying, I don't use Vortex, so you may have a whole other set of problems than I did.
