Ey this guide is super nice. You're obviously not a native English speaker, but because of that you talk slowly, which make sit super nice to follow along to. And you don't rush and go over different options
Glad you like it Cedric!
Some are broken and don't work together even if u can run them
I don't even speak english
idk what the accent is but it always comes with banger mod overhaul guides
@@bandit9259 This is a true fucking fact lmao
I love the style you went with your visuals, they are exactly what I’m looking for. Also I’m glad I can actually run it after looking at your specs
I’m glad my video was helpful to you!
Tbh I have a somewhat baller PC yet fallout 4 can still take my pc down sometimes, cant wait to try these out tho!
This is by far the best visual overhaul guide I've ever watched. Thank you for going into detail and thoroughly explaining things. Keep it up man
Here from the vanilla weapons upgrade video. Thank you for helping with the tree mod 🤘
What a fantastic guide. I was looking around because I had never overhauled fallouts visuals and this is easily the most clear, concise and comprehensive guide I've found
Thank you Apollo, I really appreciate that! Glad my guide was helpful for you!
By far the best guide on visual mods, and the tutorials where great! Thanks!
Nac X and Boston Natural Surroundings is all i need, thanks👍
Another good video and your voice is just so calming for me, keep up the fine work
Thank you man! Now you're flattering me ^^
Your guide videos are super helpful. Especially because you go in depth on your explanations.
Maybe you could do a mod load order guide too if you have the time.
Thank you mitch! If you're using LOOT (also integrated into Vortex) it will automatically sort your plugins. Manual sorting only is nesessary when youre using multiple mods that do the same thing or use the same assets, e.g. texture mods that override the same files.
Sometimes mods can conflict with each other or cause trouble (crashes, bugs, etc.), then you have to troubleshoot the problem individually by checking the mods page, or search for yourself via FO4Edit (I'm no expert on that so better look for some other guides).
This may be the best visual mod guide for Fallout 4 I've seen. Insanely informative, great comparisons,xand i even appreciate the quick install guides for Reshade & ENBs! Thank you for this!
I thought you were playing Fallout 5. But for real, thank you for giving me this mod list.My play throws are incredible now
I'm a new subscriber and i want to tell u that ur work is quite good and the quality is great thank you for the helpful vid
Thank you Joe! Glad having you on my channel!
That's an amazing video! Well done
Thanks very much for include one dead ambient variant
I tried a few collections on Nexus and theyre all broken. So came to CZcams for suggestions. I watched several videos but this one is the best for sure. Excited to try this out!
(Also I’ll try not to judge to for making a Post-Apocalyptic scene so green. Thanks for showing some wasteland options too!)
This is a great compliment, thank you very much! Glad my guide was that helpful for you!
yo what the heck... you are criminally underrated
Yo thank you! But don’t call the cops!
Very useful thank you
Thank you for this! I use Nexusmods as well, but this is a very easy alternative that doesn't involve going through the annoyance of getting HD shade packs to work. I don't need my game to look PS5/Series X quality but to look better and cleaner and this simple download does the trick :)
such a good tutorial
Super handy! Thanks
What I like about this channel is his Setup.
It's not overly god tier and he choses mods that best revolve around the community not just one guys preferences and PC.
It's a often occurring mistake that Mod CZcams Channels make where they have a $4000 Setup and rocking the newest Graphics card running these absolute god tier graphics and saying that it doesn't drop peoples FPS.
Not everyone can afford a expensive setup, you prioritized that.
Thank you Nick! The reason why I mention this is because I like to keep an eye on my systems performance regardless of the game or my current setup. I’ve always been an high end user except for the last few years because of extreme prices, but soon I have to upgrade again as well.
I always mention that, unfortunately, FO4 is an poorly optimized game that won’t run perfectly fine even with an high end system, that’s why I also made a specific video about boosting the games performance with some mods and tweaks!
I also know that there are many people doing the same thing as me and/or don’t use a expensive setup so I often get specific questions about mods and their hit on performance.
Thanks for the nice comment and compliment Nick, glad having you in my community!
Thank you for the beautiful explained video. at start i downloaded alot and game chrashed :D
possibly there were some crosover. can i use HD texture pack all at one or i need to choose one of them?
great vid thanks
I see in your modlist you have vivid weathers and darker nights as an alternative to NACX would adding true storms work with your load order? asuming i use the truestorms vivid weathers patch?
Gonna have a FEAST with these mods on ny 3080Ti
love the video, bro!
Glad you like it man!
The green landscapes look really nice on xbox
so much, thanks, what a fucking great video! i did everything, and i having a lot of beauty fun, thank you!
Glad my video was helpful for you, Erick!
Hey please reply 11:15 isn't there a way to keep half trees grown and half of them dead ? 🤔
Great channel brother ❤
Thank you very much!
Nice work dude, At least i can follow what you say unlike some other people who just rush over everything in existence
Glad my video was helpful to you!
Thanks a bunch for your videos! I am doing a clean install, and using your vids as a guide. That being said, I must ask you:what are your settings for NAC X and other, to obtain that clear picture you have? I get basically blinded by the sun, when I look at my char, it's all blury and it just doesn't look all crispy :-( I am using RealisticLighting, NacX and NAC X Water LOD God Rays Fix and Enhancements. Also installed ENB and Reshade, which are working, and I am running with the Decent Plus Preset. It's probably the settings in NAC X that are different (I enabled the ENB compatibility patch). Any help you could give me would be much appreciated!
Glad my videos are that helpful for you. To be honest I run NAC X with more or less basic settings and no presets.
Maybe it’s the combination of many visual settings (ingame, ENB/ReShade etc.) and your monitor and graphics driver settings.
@@thatMPSG Thanks for answering! I will toy around with the settings, and hope nothing explodes xD
The env dofference of online pñsy and single player was a kice tip. They dont even tell you jusy that one jas sdd on support and one doesnt lol. Its cool to know. I have personally always went for the one eith sdd on support.
Great video mate! Do you run RealisticLighting and NAC X or just pick one?
Thank you man! Yes I run both. NAC X and any lighting mod work perfectly fine together.
@@thatMPSG Cool, thanks dude. I've always wanted to mod Fallout 4, but got overwhelmed with all the options. Your video made nice and simple.
I wish there were more brown flora overhauls. The green looks great but I'm itching for something closer to the vanilla game
Thanks!
No, thanks to you! You’re my first ever donation, I really appreciate that man!
Maravilloso video :)
Muchas gracias
Thanks for the video. Im planning on a list of mods before i begin fallout. I notice though that the in menu also has an option to download a graphics over haul mod, would this be similar to the ones youve used ? Thanks
There is the official hd texture pack from Bethesda that comes in large size but also impacts performance quite a bit, so I recommend to get some of these mods I recommended in this video. There also are a few other vanilla texture overhauls that improve visuals as well as performance, for that you can simply search on the nexus mods page!
Thanks for clarifying appreciate it
hey nice video! but im confused, do i download all of the texture and models mods you listed (vivid fallout, high resolution texture pack, luxors 2k overhaul) or just pick one?
Thank you! Basically texture mods can work together. Not every mod does overhaul every the tire of the whole game so you can pick and choose what you like. If there are mods that overhaul the same textures, only the texture of the mod you loaded as last will be seen because it overrides the other.
I recommend to install a mod that’s overhauls the complete game first then you can choose other mods that retexture some specific objects after if you like.
Check out my mod list on google docs, every texture mod I listed there is actively installed in my load order.
thank you so much for the response, got my fallout looking great! the only that is bugging me is that when i look around all the textures have a slight flicker to them, ive not been able to find a solution online anywhere@@thatMPSG
Hello! I realize this may be a dumb question, but I had a look at your load order and I was wondering.. are you able to use every one of those texture mods together at once?
That’s a legitimate question. Basically you can use texture mods together at once. But you must take into account that if there’s a texture that is used by multiple texture overhauls only the one that loads the last will get used. So you have to decide wich textures you prefer and change the load order of these mods.
Thanks. Btw Vivid weather and True storms can works together.
Don't they conflict each other becuase they're doing basically the same?
@@thatMPSG There are merge patch www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/15908
@@thatMPSG there is a patch for it
Jesters Texture mod was just updated, after like forever lol
love the mods so much now my game looks way better
Glad my video was helpful!
the lighting part,... nice examples saying they are performance heavy, but if you have combined it with an enb like those examples, ofcourse its going to be heavy, the enb makes it heavy. looks awesome tho ^^
The lighting mod takes ~30% of performance and the enb also takes ~30% on top. I’ve tested it before.
@@thatMPSG strange, i never really noticed a performance drop with the lighting mods, only in specific spots the fps dropped a bit but mostly stayed at 60
@@slayerdude18 those lighting mods in the video mostly affect the lighting in interiours. If you unlock your fps, you'll notice that you get a lot more frames inside than outside and that way you'll also notice a significant performance drop with these mods.
I downloaded reshade and the enb plus. When I'd be outside I'd notice the fog on the horizon was a blinding bright white. Almost like the brightness of it didn't adjust as the game changed to night time. I leanred it was the ENB causing this by hitting F12 and turning it off. When I turned it off the bright fog went back to normal. I like the look of the Decent Plus ENB so is there any way to fix this issue or do I need to find a new ENB.
Do you have a recomended Reshade Present or your own? Thanks for the great Video
I just use some of the standard ones that come up in the installation. Most visual changes are done by the ENB Preset.
Not sure if your having issues lately.. Im basically using your whole list, minus the deprecated items after the latest update right now... When I hcoose eye color in looks menu.. It changes my skin color.. lmao! Im working on that.. I'm wondering if you might make an update video, or if you ever got around to making an actual AIO modpack? @thatmpsg
Hi ! Can I use Vivid Fallout AIO and LUXOR mods together?
Hi there. For the textures do i need them all, or should i choose?
All but for water you can choose, so as a trees. Either dead trees or super greeny ones
With NAC X is the weather only manually selectable or can it be set on automatic, so you can random weather as you play?
Also are Realistic Lighting and NAC X compatible with eachother, thanks
You can do both and much more.
Yes they also are compatible.
@@thatMPSG thanks
what weapon are you using in the early clip of this video??
NZ-41. You can also find my complete mod list in the description!
Do I need all the DLC's listed for the pine tree mod?
*making subscribing sounds*
is the "realistic roads" mod taken down? i used this a few months ago but everytime i try searching for it on xbox it doesnt show up. (could just be the in game mod search thats making it not show up)
It is available on the Nexus as always, but I don't know anything about XBox modding.
@@thatMPSG ill check there
can you upload you mod list as a collection?
New to fallout modding, are these available in game or do I have to get them externally?
You have to get these mods externaly and install them into your game files or use a mod manager. There are many things to consider when it comes to modding FO4 so better watch a basic modding guide first!
Much appreciated thanks
I am actually downloading ur mod list but can u plz post ur modlist order?
Awesome thank you! Are these all available on Xbox?
Glad you like it! Many are but better check for yourself.
do you have this all enabled or do we just have to pick one or two
Everything is enabled except if I mentioned different mods that do the same thing (grass,trees,water) then you have to choose what you like to install of these options.
I just installed reshade and enb with the decent preset. But sadly everything is super blury now. Just the spot im looking to is in focus. Hasnt the preset installed correctly?
Change the DoF setting in the ingame enb oberlay. Either the value of distance of focus or just disable it if you don’t like it at all.
Hi, i visited your doc abt the mods you have and downloaded some of them, i first installed vortex, so now, do i drop all the files raw into vortex? or do i have to do anything special?
First log in with your nexus account inside the vortex app. On the mod pages you mostly have two options in the files section. One is to download the mod file manually to your computer, the other is to allow vortex to download the file directly inside the app. If you download it manually you have to drag the file into vortex.
From there you can select the mods you downloaded to install, enable or disable.
If you need more instructions I recommend you to watch a vortex guide on CZcams.
@@thatMPSG there is no problem abt the vortex now, but abt your doc, do you have all the mods that are listed there installed and you are running it on a 1080 at atleast 60fps?
has anyone else got an issue with the shadows being significantly lighter in first person than 3rd
great video, thanks you! vivid fallout looks horrible though, just like someone pulled up the sharpness and contrast to the extremes
are the lighting and weather mods all compatible together, well, are all the mods in the description compatible together?
Thanks
Basically all mods are compatible with each other if they don’t do the same exact thing. You can only use one lighting mod, one weather mod, grass mod, enb preset, etc. at once.
I presented some different options in this video, so you have to choose just one in each category. You can use multiple texture mods at once.
@@thatMPSG tank you very much for that detailed answer! 😁
Love the guide great job on that but for some reason my game got super blurry after getting reshade + ENB any fix??
Glad you like it. Might be some visual filters like DoF or motion blur. Just turn that off in the ENB settings menu.
My Ryzen 5 7600 and rtx 3090ti is about to have fun
I need help because I hate NACX the fog is ridiculously low quality non translucent fog basically just a black screen at night, is there a alternative to that mod?
That’s unfortunate but I already mentioned two alternatives in this video.
How do I get permission to reshaders to save prsets there a rad text on top of my screen when I go into reshade tool
is it possible to use vivid AIO together with High Resolution Texture Pack? Thanks a lot for the video! The best for visuals overhaul I've seen
Thank you so much! Yes you can, I use every texture mod I showed in this video.
@@thatMPSG oh! that is great then. You got a new subscriber. Thanks for the quick reply!
Is there a way to download all the mods you use as a collection?
Not explicit in this formation presented in this video. There might be bigger collections that also contain some of these mods.
How do you manage all this with a GTX 1080 at 1440p? Just wondering because I have a 3060 Ti and she cant manage at 2k
Running a lot of optimization mods. I also uploaded a guide about those on my channel.
Nevertheless I still struggle with low fps in some instances. Bethesda games optimization is awful.
Does reshade and enb work when launching through vortex?
Also, what enb are you using in 4:00
The mod list posted, is that the order we should install?
No it’s just listed by type not order
Found your video and currently trying to install your mod list. Modding is painful.
Good luck man!
I just recently got a gaming laptop (not a pc), so I've been scared to mod Fallout 4 bc I don't really feel like messing up the laptop. Enbs are the mods that scare me due to the nature of them. Im checking out the other ones that arent performance heavy tho.
Your laptop won’t break if it’s not able run those mods with good performance. Just give it a try and see if it works, if not just uninstall the mods, it’s just a few clicks.
I also recommend to check out my performance guide on my channel!
Yoooo use nac x and some how my rain looks like snow you got a idea how to fix that ?
Schwierig zu sagen, aber NAC X hat auch Schneefall.
@@thatMPSG danke für die Antwort aber in wie fern soll mir das jetzt helfen ?🤭
What mod is being used at 7:55 to give that recoil shake on the screen?
Check out my ballistics und gunplay video where I featured a bunch of these mods!
@@thatMPSGsounds good thank you so much!
What is the name of the mod for this weapon?
Whats the minimum graphics cards youd recommend to use this with im running a zotac geforce gtx 1060 just wondering if im dreaming bigger then itll be able to handle
You should be able to play with some of these mods. Might become a little difficult with lighting mods and enb. But better just try it out.
You can also push your frames if you use some of the mods I showed in my performance guide on my channel!
@thatMPSG thank you I'm going to watch it an give it a try I appreciate it.
Do you use LODs for your game?
I only use "FAR - Faraway Area Reform"
I don't get it. You said that you like RealisticLights Mod, but then, you said you MUST use NAC X. RealisticL and NAC doesn't work toghether right? It would be conflics right?
No, you don’t have to. You can only choose one lighting mod but you can use NAC X with both.
My Game now look realy bad its like having a thig fog. i cant see that far and it has a huge brigness also at night i cant see more far than a few meters all buildings are pitch black. Also Colors are flicking when moving form a "normal" (with the dircipted fog) look to a blue tint.
two questions, 1. can anyone confirm that these mods work with the next gen update and 2. do they require any of the addon dlc's or will they work without them?
Some mods need DLCs
9:18 "Fallout 4: High Resolution Texture Pack" выглядит гораздо лучше мода "Fallout 4 HD Overhaul" 🙂
What mod makes you hold the knife with the pistol
"HK USP .45(New) with Tactical knife" also featured in my top 5 pistol mod showcase video!
The game looks great, but it crashes on average every few minutes.
I have a high-end setup on which, among other things, I play Cyberpunk on ultra with maximum ray tracing in 4k and the game runs stably and without drops.
All drivers are also updated, and the game worked perfectly before your guide (of course, this is not an accusation against you).
I came to the conclusion by process of elimination that what crashes the game is ENB (decent ENB preset), I will try to remove RealisticLightning and replace it with Enhanced Lights and FX, but I doubt that's it.
I turned off ambient occlusion completely in the game because I read that ENB overwrites it with its own. In ENB itself I had to change the Depth of field technique from McFly to default because strange/blurry things were happening on the screen, after changing this technique it looks perfect.
I'm writing this comment because I see that you respond to them promptly, and from what I've seen, more people have had this problem and maybe it will help someone.
I'll change the lighting mod in a moment, if that doesn't help, I'll try to change the preset in ENB.
One last thing, when I turn off all effects in ENB (I think) because I uncheck GLOBAL use effect, the game still crashes, but a little less often. The game also doesn't turn off when I'm in a small enclosed space or when there's not much going on on the screen, only when the action gets going.
To be sure, I also checked what was happening with the hardware and what load it generated on the computer, and in these respects everything was fine and there were no anomalies.
***SOLVED***
Omg I managed to fix it, so I'll write here what the problem was, for other people who may also encounter it.
I can't believe the reason was so prosaic. There is a bug in the game that appears in all RTX 30 and 40 series cards, namely, you need to go to the advanced graphics settings in the client and turn off "weapon effects", otherwise the game will crash constantly, even at the beginning of the game before you receive any weapons. The bug apparently occurs for all RTX 30 and 40, and Bethesda must be aware of it, because even on ultra settings, weapon effects are disabled by default.
Thanks again for the great guide!
Glad you solved your problem man!
Bethesda games are a mess in terms of performance and optimization. Basically there could be hundreds of possible reasons for crashes, bugs and other issues.
For those cases I also made a guide on fixing some of common issues as well as a performance and optimization guide.
If you’re talking about weapon debris effects, this is a very common issue since the beginning of fo4. Fortunately there is a simple patch which also is featured in my recent fixing guide.
Thanks for your very comprehensive description on your issue and your solution as well!
i want the outfit 💀
I’m late to the party and just discovered the mods for ps4. Can I search them and apply whatever mod I want?
It’s never too late to join the party!
I don’t know much about console modding but if those mods are available for ps4 anywhere you’d be able to install them to your game.
Better watch a specific guide for that, since I can’t help that much!
What gun mod is that
How do i make my vault suit appear more golden
3:52 which mod was this
How do you get the NAC x in the MCM pause menu
NAC X - MCM Settings Menu + Hide Armor Menu Item Patch
how did you fix the random fps drop in urban areas?
Try PRP and shadow boost fo4. For detailed explanation check out my performance guide and my “must-have mods” videos!
@@thatMPSG thanks for the advice i already watched it still have those fps drop specially near mass fusion building and near good neighbor
After 200 years it foes make sense yo d r grass gompletely overtake the earth. Like on everything... Unless you have them rains that have acid then maybe that might be a lil immersion breaking
How can I see the menu you are using in 2:33?
It’s the “Mod Configuration Menu”. A very useful tool that’s also required for a lot of mods.
Anybody know the load order
excuse my dumbass brain but, is nac x combatible with Enhanced Lights and FX?
Nothing stupid there! Yes it is!
@@thatMPSG oh, thanks
Which of the mods take the most performance?
I'd say "Enhanced Lights and FX" as well as trees and grass mods.
@@thatMPSG And probably ENB too, I'm willing to bet it's the most performance heavy. Since it usually is in other games like Skyrim
@@doupt Yes you're right, depends on the preset and settings.
Does luxor8071 not have the AOI packs anymore??
He can sell it on patreon or smtn
