How to edit user-interface stuff?


Recommended Posts

Good evening / early morning!

 

I have a (simple) question:

 

How can you edit user - interface stuff for Fallout 4?

 

What I want to do is things like this:

  • add new custom "values" (like weight, damage, ...) to objects and have them display in the pipboy menu
  • create a custom graphical perk system (level-up menu)
  • create new custom map-markers (NOT replacing vanilla ones!)
  • ...

I have no idea how to do this stuff (because it can't be done inside the CK).

There are lots of "beginner - level" - tutorials on how to use the CreationKit.

What I am looking for is something like that, but for editing / creating user interface stuff for Fallout 4.

Please, if there are tutorials on these subjects, let me know here.

 

Many of the little things that I would like to implement into Fallout 4 fail because of this, and it is really frustrating for me.

Fallout 4 is a great game and with a bit of work (and lots of time) could be made an almost perfect game (for me, at least).

But right now, I feel like I don't even want to think about "great ideas", because they will almost certainly fail because of all of this user interface stuff, which seems to be "un-moddable" and there doesn't seem to be any documentation about this kind of stuff.

I don't want to give up on Fallout 4, I have just started working on some stuff, but it is just really frustrating.

Sometimes, I wish I knew about this kind of stuff before buying the game ...

 

If you can help in any way, let me know here ...

I would take a look at this mod called LevelUpMenuEx

You can poke around in there and it will probably answer some of your questions.

 

Typically editted the User Interface requires extracting the Fallout 4 - Interface BA2 file with Bethesda Archive Extractor (BAE)

and then making changes with any SWF editting program, there are many options but I have used JPEXS with some success
