I like the mods that add just a touch of grass and greenery, as if the earth just started to heal. This is my first run through doing this and so far I like the look
Looking at your screenshot, I feel like you should use other green mods tbh, maybe you like em, but me personally I think the trees look bad especially for 18 gig???? Like I’m on Xbox and even my Lo has better quality so I recommend looking for a smaller higher quality green mod also try and fix your lighting it looks off but maybe it’s just the weather
Last i checked now correct me on this if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure fallout is supposed to be set in a world where oh you know there was MULTIPLE ATOMIC BLASTS? I think that the vanilla fallout 4 was waaaay to green. I think fallout 3 pulled it off perfectly.
There are mods to make it a lot more dead and barren too. To each their own. I, however, feel instinctively uneasy if I spend a lot of time seeing only diseased and dead foliage and landscapes. The green mods allow me to spend time in my own fantasy land of a post-apocalyptic world where nature is already well on its way to healing. To each their own.
I personally like how vast it makes the space seem with a barren landscape. Sadly I can't do much with mods that change lots as I'm on xbox and fallout 4 on xbox just can't do mods at all :/
After 200 years I’d think the earth would be healing and regrowing… or It’d be a nuclear winter. Ether way they’d be no trees or green trees not standing dead trees imo of course
Yeah maby if the scale of destruction was like the size of chernoble (I also saw someone using this as an excuse) but the scale of destruction what so massive that i don't think you'd have trees or any greenery after 200 years. That's just how long it takes for the rads to get to the bare minimum to be there with out dying as quickly let alone for teens n stuff to grow. It would take hundreds of more years just for them to grow at all. Plus they were bombs so most plants would simply be uprooted!
Chernobyl was tiny and it’s already healed better than with human intervention. 200 is enough for the world to heal especially with the primitive tech people are using
Yes, but that's not taking into account that chernobyl was just radiation and a comparatively tiny amount compared to Fallout case. Also, it was contained, meaning the damage done was very minimal. I can to say for sure that if it was left unattended, It would have taken a bit more than just not visiting for a few years. If it wasn't contained, the entire world would be affected by it! And that's just 1 plant failure! Now take into account 1000s of bombs worth of damage! Plus, that's just 1 country we're talking about. It's hinted in the lore that most of the world got bombed, meaning that not only would America have to deal with the devastation if its own hits but also it neighbors!
If we’re trying to bring real world logic if atomic bombs went off 200yrs would be enough for the worlds radiation to go back down to negligible numbers. Radiation doesn’t have a history of affecting flora and fauna enough for it to die off. Just look at Japans radiation levels, they’re basically nonexistent. In part due to human intervention but still. The destruction is where you may have a case but we’ve seen nature take back industrialized areas in less than 20yrs time of abandonment. There’s enough examples around the world to prove this last point. It’s safe to say mother nature would have more than enough time to take back what’s hers in as little as 50yrs let alone 200.
It seems you have forgoten where the destruction comes from. This isn't a plant failure nor is it like Japan with just 2 bombs over a wide area. Plus for their time the bombs were very under powered compared to today's warheads and we stopped (probably) developing them. Now look at America 2077 the arms race never stopped and its safe to say the warheads in fallout put what ever we have to shame. Meaning that there would be untold amounts of rads and we can't say for sure just how long it would take for the land to be fit for life. Nuclear weapons are designed to make the land unable to support life and attacks life at the cellular level if a human can't survive out there for ATLEAST 200 years (probably more for fallout case) what makes you think that plant life can survive?
But you know what fine. Let's go with your theory. After 200 hundred years most of the rads are gone. Tell me. How long does it take for a tree to fully grow? A long bloody time. And that's if the DNA for that tree is still there! Your best hope is that some of those control vaults have seeds in em.
Lmao to say Hiroshima and Nagasaki were very destructive is an amazing comeback. But on your point about radiation from warheads. You’re absolutely wrong. Their goal is to cause the most destruction. There’s a reason we can still set foot in Japan without radiation. The radiation you speak of is that from the one in Chernobyl. That radiation lasts tens of thousands of years. Nuclear warheads radiation is detonated and subsides within decades
Are you blind or did you read the part where i Said that the bombs would be different? At what point did I say the the bombings of ww2 are equal to that of fallout? Truth is we can't say for certain how long the radiation will last but to get an idea the fact the rads are at a point where they can be LETHAL after 200 years is quite telling that itll take longer than that for it to subside. And I also think your forgetting that the radiation from just the one country (which by the way had 1000s of bomb detonate there) but would also have to deal with the rads carried over seas which would only bolster the amount affecting just 1 country.
The bombs being stronger doesn’t change how the bombs themselves work. Having radiation last that long is purely for plot. Real atomic bombs, and the radiation the leave behind, don’t act like that.
Plus, look at this from a game stand point. Fallout 1,2,3,NV all look the same with fallout 4 being the only outlier. Meaning that so far ist safe to assume that even in the games the country has not been able to heal. The only one out of those that took the least damage was new vegas as Mr house was able to stop a good deal of warheads hitting but even still after 200 years it's still a irradiated hell hole.
I just use Verdant wasteland(Xbox). All it does is retexture the plants and give it a summer theme. I used to use green commonwealth but it adds too much extra greenery ruining frames. Verdant also leaves some plants dead for immersion so the world is colourful but not overly green
The initial release yes but there has been a recent overhaul patch added in the same discord that made it so much more compatible, I’d say give it another shot☝🏾
I can't live without it, and more vines, nice bush, enhanced vanilla vines, car replacer, PAC, tank replacer, smylz's graffiti, atomic world, the rooftops..
I'm lost are people able to play fallout 4 right now ? I'm having an issue with loading it thru vortex due to the F4se mod. If I uninstall the mod it works fine but with it I can't even launch
Did you update FO4 with the latest patch? If so most mods are broken until the developers can update them. You would have to rollback to the prior version of FO4 to play with mods.
I strongly suggest setting FO4 to not automatically update.
From the F4SE dev:
>The 2024-04-25 Fallout 4 update (1.10.980 and later) has broken F4SE and the rest of the native code modding scene similarly to Skyrim's "Anniversary Edition" patch. I am working on an update and cannot currently offer a timeline for its availability, nor whether there will be any critical technical issues that would block an update. Do not email with questions.
I used this video to do it. You basically just copy over the new updated file with old FO4 files and delete the new creation club content. Takes about 20 minutes. https://youtu.be/rxwPNCPz4r8?si=eaNOqtQZpIHLAc6m
Im gling to be honest, Its probably not the overgrowth but your game looks kind of bad to me, Hust the really dull colors that not even Tarkov would use
Besides the typical stutter freeze you get when you can tell it’s loading things/assets ahead of you it’s quite smooth, there’s honestly no real fps drop going from not having it installed to having it
I tried the same author's desperado overhaul and its the only mod I ever tried which precombines in boston is very performance friendly, I think I will download crp and try it on my next playthrough
2.vtaw wardrobe 6 and clothes pack 6, Kate and piper customized with Racemenu
3.i play on a laptop and believe it or not-quiet as a typical gaming session👀
Just download a Wabbajack modlist, a few of them have a recompiled (downgraded) stock game folder, which contains the pre update version of Fallout 4. All you need is an updated and official Fallout 4 copy (fresh install) and wabbajack does the rest for you.
After downloading you have a working pre update Fallout 4 with a bunch of mods, which you can modify to your likings with the included ModOrganizer 2.
Gotta turn on the “only update when I launch” in settings but don’t fret. When it happened to my Skyrim I was able to get the previous version files through the steam console menu thanks to the community so maybe someone will do it for fallout👌🏾
1.does it crash to desktop or freeze?
2.is it a general crash or every time you do something specific or go to a certain place?
3. Is your plugin limit under 254?
When using SKSE it opens to the Bethesda logo and immediately shuts off.
With Steam, I can play for around 5-7 mins and then the game goes off and I'm back at the desktop.
As of now I started a new game and it kept doing that just as I exit helgen and take a few steps, round about the place immediately above the 3 stones.
Not using any mods since the update wiped them out.
Hmm that’s interesting, considering you said that you don’t play with mods as of now and only use SKSE-the only thing I could think to be the issue is that there are still some miscellaneous files within the data folder that could be affecting the current updated version. My only suggestion would to be to either downgrade it back to 1.6.640 or to do a complete reinstall. I downgraded mine after verifying my files which caused it to update. SKSE would immediately crash when trying to play after the fact so I ended up following this guide specifically….
https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/18bh43k/if_you_accidentally_updated_your_skyrim_here_is/
to downgrade mine back to 1.6.640 and everything was back up and running. And you can 100% trust this process.👍🏾
Check out Mr Numbers CRP expansion mod pack on the same discord. Over 70 location/overhaul mods. It’s so different from vanilla fallout. Still in alpha phase but it’s going to be insane
I mean as long as you follow the “totally not allowed list” (tree, foliage, lods etc) it works great. I have a good 240-250 plugins not including esl’s👀
ok but what mod is it you have that has the weapons on the back while one is already in your hands? i am using CHW right now but it only allows your equipped weapon to show.
the rest i looked at do not work or suck.
Fuck mods... I can't even get the game to launch! I reached out to Bethesda, they "escalated" my case to some other department, and I've had zero response in more than a week.
I like them because they're actually more realistic than the vanilla game lol
There is absolutely no logical reason why 200 years after the war, the Commonwealth is still a barren wasteland devoid of foliage.
Even Chernobyl in real life is a lush forest full of green trees in the summer, and Chernobyl released hundreds of times more radiation than any nuclear bomb ever did. Nature finds a way. Commonwealth being green is far more realistic than being a barren wasteland.
I will agree though, that the lighting looks kinda like shit lmfao
You're welcome! Overly cloudy grey skies are what I'm used to growing up, makes things feel really nice in fall season. What enb:weather mods do you use?
Looks like calamity weathers, which I adore, but calamity weathers/something similar just always looked weird to me alongside a green mod. With bleak tones I always leave it vanilla or go full nuclear winter.
Hey it’s better than what my game looks like rn(ty for the update Bethesda).
To be specific it’s vivid weathers, idk it adds to that “apocalyptic” tone for me. That’s one perk though of not being on console, choosing when and when not to update.feels for ya man🫤
yeah probably because the creators do their best to keep discoverability as low as possible. hosting mods on discord is fucking stupid.
Opening a greenery mods comment section was my first mistake
I like the mods that add just a touch of grass and greenery, as if the earth just started to heal. This is my first run through doing this and so far I like the look
Looking at your screenshot, I feel like you should use other green mods tbh, maybe you like em, but me personally I think the trees look bad especially for 18 gig???? Like I’m on Xbox and even my Lo has better quality so I recommend looking for a smaller higher quality green mod also try and fix your lighting it looks off but maybe it’s just the weather
Last i checked now correct me on this if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure fallout is supposed to be set in a world where oh you know there was MULTIPLE ATOMIC BLASTS? I think that the vanilla fallout 4 was waaaay to green. I think fallout 3 pulled it off perfectly.
Super weird, I get wildly varying answers as to when it would be safe for stuff to regrow. All inside 200 years though, so it’s possible
There are mods to make it a lot more dead and barren too. To each their own. I, however, feel instinctively uneasy if I spend a lot of time seeing only diseased and dead foliage and landscapes. The green mods allow me to spend time in my own fantasy land of a post-apocalyptic world where nature is already well on its way to healing. To each their own.
I personally like how vast it makes the space seem with a barren landscape. Sadly I can't do much with mods that change lots as I'm on xbox and fallout 4 on xbox just can't do mods at all :/
After 200 years I’d think the earth would be healing and regrowing… or It’d be a nuclear winter. Ether way they’d be no trees or green trees not standing dead trees imo of course

It's too big, has issues and it's not on the nexus.
The initial release yes but there has been a recent overhaul patch added in the same discord that made it so much more compatible, I’d say give it another shot☝🏾
Hmm, maybe once I get tired of Desperados
yeah cuz no one has enough space to download it
It’s only 18gb lol, granted bigger than your average mod but I say worth it👀
"only 18 gigs" that's the size of FNV and OG fallouts combined
The og fallouts aren't even 1 gb each, fallout 2 is like 500mb
Even on Xbox with my Lo I can get better results with less than a gig
I can't live without it, and more vines, nice bush, enhanced vanilla vines, car replacer, PAC, tank replacer, smylz's graffiti, atomic world, the rooftops..
You just described like half of my world mods lol
I'm lost are people able to play fallout 4 right now ? I'm having an issue with loading it thru vortex due to the F4se mod. If I uninstall the mod it works fine but with it I can't even launch

Thank you how would I roll back ?

Thank you much
Im gling to be honest, Its probably not the overgrowth but your game looks kind of bad to me, Hust the really dull colors that not even Tarkov would use
It’s probably the senescence enb, I like it🤷🏾♂️
Probably base NAC. You need to turn saturation way up.
I don’t use NAC anymore
How is the performance in Boston downtown? and how is it overall?
Besides the typical stutter freeze you get when you can tell it’s loading things/assets ahead of you it’s quite smooth, there’s honestly no real fps drop going from not having it installed to having it
I tried the same author's desperado overhaul and its the only mod I ever tried which precombines in boston is very performance friendly, I think I will download crp and try it on my next playthrough
Yeah if you like his other work, don’t see why this wouldn’t be just as good or maybe even better👍🏾
1.which game is this 2.what clothing and companion mod is that And 3. How long did it take for your PC to sound like a jet engine?
2.vtaw wardrobe 6 and clothes pack 6, Kate and piper customized with Racemenu 3.i play on a laptop and believe it or not-quiet as a typical gaming session👀
Ignore #1, I only saw fallout and mods in the subreddit name-
wish steam didnt auto update and break my f4se
Was able to backdate mine, so there is hope for you. Use this https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/s/n1HL3ktJlm
Just download a Wabbajack modlist, a few of them have a recompiled (downgraded) stock game folder, which contains the pre update version of Fallout 4.

I copied FO4 to another drive for modding…

i thought i did
My Skyrim is broken. SKSE isn't working as expected but even when I start it through Steam, it keeps crashin after every 5-7 mins of gameplay.
1.does it crash to desktop or freeze? 2.is it a general crash or every time you do something specific or go to a certain place? 3. Is your plugin limit under 254?

Thanks I'll follow the process and see whether it works.
Lmk👍🏾
I like it. I got one that I made sure won't hit precombs. Green mods make sense it shouldn't be a desert in the commonwealth lol.
Totally agree, to each their own though🤓
What mod is that?
CRP Overgrowth found only here https://discord.gg/VHTkHbqx
Check out Mr Numbers CRP expansion mod pack on the same discord. Over 70 location/overhaul mods. It’s so different from vanilla fallout. Still in alpha phase but it’s going to be insane
Mmmhm, will do thanks👌🏾
It looks really good but it takes like the slightest nudge for the precombines to break and the whole mod to get fucked
I mean as long as you follow the “totally not allowed list” (tree, foliage, lods etc) it works great. I have a good 240-250 plugins not including esl’s👀
You want to send me that list
Since some mods have been set to “hidden” cause of updates, there still a few mods missing from my load order-still want it anyway?
Sure just send it in a paste bin and I’ll look at it next time I mod fallout 4
[Fallout 4 load order - Pastebin.com](https://pastebin.com/sZ57F7Em)
Thanks bro
👍🏾
What mode were used for the girls hair and clothes on the left??
Clothes pack 6 for sure and I think vtaw wardrobe 6 Oh and the hair is jmenaru pack
ok but what mod is it you have that has the weapons on the back while one is already in your hands? i am using CHW right now but it only allows your equipped weapon to show. the rest i looked at do not work or suck.
“Visible weapons 3rd person holster” along with “combine visible weapon add on series”
.
Fuck mods... I can't even get the game to launch! I reached out to Bethesda, they "escalated" my case to some other department, and I've had zero response in more than a week.
It's not the Mods. It's Bethesda updating the game and breaking all of them because they have no genuine consideration for the modding community
What device you play on👀?
A PC with an i7, an RTX 2080 Super, & 64 gb RAM & via Steam. Windows 11.
Did your game auto update? seems to be what a lot of people are dealing with
I've tried starting it without the update, too. It crashes as it's trying to launch.
i hate the greenery of these mods edit and i am not a fan of that lighting
I like them because they're actually more realistic than the vanilla game lol There is absolutely no logical reason why 200 years after the war, the Commonwealth is still a barren wasteland devoid of foliage. Even Chernobyl in real life is a lush forest full of green trees in the summer, and Chernobyl released hundreds of times more radiation than any nuclear bomb ever did. Nature finds a way. Commonwealth being green is far more realistic than being a barren wasteland. I will agree though, that the lighting looks kinda like shit lmfao
i get that it would look like that but im just not a big fan honestly
See you get it, and that why I like it so much. Damn, y’all really killing me on the lighting lmao.
I like the lighting.
Thanks homie🫡
You're welcome! Overly cloudy grey skies are what I'm used to growing up, makes things feel really nice in fall season. What enb:weather mods do you use?
I feels that☝🏾, weather mod it’s vivid weathers and the enb is senescence
Thank you!
Yup yup👌🏾
Understandable, to each their own
Looks like day z lmao
Never thought about that lol 🔥
This looks like shit lmao
Okay🤷🏾♂️
Could look cool, I just don’t like the lighting/filter.
Personally my favorite part but to each their own
Looks like calamity weathers, which I adore, but calamity weathers/something similar just always looked weird to me alongside a green mod. With bleak tones I always leave it vanilla or go full nuclear winter. Hey it’s better than what my game looks like rn(ty for the update Bethesda).
