[Itchy]

Hello Everyone,

 

What Fallout 4 PC mods do you recommend that do not make you OP or cheat.

 

When listing mods please post a description.

 

Also do you recommend getting your mods from Bethesda.net or Nexus Mods?

 

Thanks,

Well these are some of the mods I use: (Just lookin through my NMM)

Animation:

• Lowered Weapons: - Makes it so you aren't graphically always pointing your weapon when its out.
• Right-Handed Hunting Rifle:- Puts the bolt on the right side, and changes the animation.

Armour:

• Armorsmith Extended: - Maybe kinda cheaty to some? I use it so I can put ballistic weave on any under armor I want.
• Re-sized Ushanka: - Makes the Ushanka actually fit your head. The one in the default game looks horrible if you ask me.

Companions:

• Everyone's Best Friend: - Lets you use Dogmeat and another companion at the same time. - This was originally intended for the game.

Modders Resources: - May be required for other mods

• AWKCR: - Its a modders resource thing. Some mods need it.

User Interface:

• Better Mod Descriptions: - Gives you exact numbers on what weapon mods do. No more "Better range, Exceptional recoil" exc.
• Valdacil's Item Sorting: - Changes the name of objects to make sorting through them easier. BEST paired with the next mod.
• DEF UI: - Does a lot of things, one of my favorite things is the pictures next to objects. Makes identifying armor pieces a LOT easier.
• Improved Map with Visible Roads: - ... It improves the map. What else can be said?
• Full Dialogue Interface: No more "Yes, No, Sarcasm, Question".

Visuals & Performance:

• Chem Redux: - Gives unique textures for each Chem. Orange Mentats have an orange label exc.
• Insignificant Object Remover: - 'Removes' some rubble, rocks exc, it can improve performance in downtown Boston.
• Dynavision: - Dynamic Depth of Feild that is 100% configurable.
• Darker Nights: - Makes night Darker if you felt it was too bright.
• Enhanced Blood Textures: - Makes Blood look better if you ask me.
• Vivid Fallout: - Thats just a part... But alot of that guys textures are less Vram heavy then the default ones, and can look better.

Weapons:

• PreWar Binoculars: - Light weight Binoculars, Perfect for sneaking characters who don't carry scoped rifles.
• Better Artillery Signal Flares: - For some reason artillery flares don't have the same range as grenades, they hit an invisible wall. This fixes that issue.
• Angry Artillery: With how infrequently Ive used artillery I can't consider this a cheat. It makes it so Artillery isn't so damn slow. No more waiting 20 seconds for it to start firing. - Most of the time, I would kill whatever WAY before the artillery even fired the first shot! (Then I'd get killed by my own artillery)

If you want more mods... I'd recommend looking up Gopher, or Oxhorn on Youtube.
Gopher is the mod author of Dynavision, and does a series called "Mod Vault" where he shows off a lot of mods, Not all are lore friendly or non "cheaty" but, all seem to be fun.
Oxhorn isn't that well know yet. But damn he does make some good Fallout 4 videos. He did videos on his favorite mods for each faction. He likes lore friendly, and non "cheaty" sorts of mods. I have to agree a lot of them are pretty good.

That is a great list of mods. Thank you for the assist.

Sypran pretty much covered the main ones.

A couple I'll throw in are:

 

Faster Terminal Displays - Makes menus on the in game computers pop up and navigate more quickly.

No Essential NPCs - Make all NPCs killable.

That would definitely make the game much more interesting.
