A New Load Order

A New Load Order

Hi guys, off the back of my other posts, I’ve had some messages asking if I’m still putting together a new LO.

Yes I am but little problems I find keep delaying its completion, always the way! But I’m getting there now & hoping to have something posted in the next couple of days. It’s a little bit darker than my last LO (not painfully so) but I think it looks really great & I’m doing everything I can to maintain performance.

Anyway theres my little update if anyone was interested 😄😂

Have I gone mad?

I feel like I’m losing my mind but I am genuinely considering turning on 30fps mode!

I’m building a load order and it is rather intense, been testing on 60fps & there’s little hitches here and there. Bunker hill is a complete nightmare. Then I thought what the hell, I’ll give 30fps a little run around & wow. Obviously bunker hill still has an effect but Christ, basically all other areas with hitching felt so much smoother & it was much less distracting, even through Boston.

How many of you guys play in 30fps?

I got a quick question!

Just a little one. If I’m using a landscape/ tree mod that includes it’s on LODs, would this make FAR area reform redundant and unnecessary?

That is all, thank you

Interior lighting mods

Hey guys, putting a new LO together which is always a fun time! (I want to set myself on fire!)

But I’m struggling to nail down an interior lighting mod, I was wondering what are your guys go to/ what do you think looks best?

I wanted to use ELFX But it just seems like a recipe for disaster!

Currently I have one of the following in mind:
- ultra interior lighting (fps issues? Too bright?)
- Deadlights interiors (too dark?)

What others would you guys recommend I check out

Well that’s new! Any ideas???

Trying to get a new LO setup but I haven’t seen this one before, anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?

Looks like textures are flicking in and out as I move around. Just outside BADTFL offices, near bunker hill.

EDIT: Fixed!!! I just had to move Beantown interiors below vehicle overhaul continued & all was fine

u/Coxy1504 — 3 days ago

Am I an idiot if I try make a load order with ELFX involved?

Basically as the title states, is it at all possible to get this one working? It looks great but I’ve heard it causes major performance and stability issues

Final update on this LO

Well lads, we hit 30 hours no problem! Did eventually have 1 crash nearby bunker hill & some frame drops elsewhere but overall I’m really happy with the performance.

After 30 hours though I am going to make some changes, thought I better address things niggling at me before I get tooooooo deep to change them, so I shall be building a (similar! But) new LO incorporating what I learned here.

Mainly going to try and find some cleaner/ better alternatives to what I use currently & drop some other mods to free up space for some new ones (I’m very wary of BA2)

As a final note, this LO has been a blast, super fun, looked great a maybe not as hard as I’d have liked. I just want to change some of the mods around & maybe get some different guns involved so keep your eyes peeled, I shall return.

The construction of a new load order begins, war never changes

Just playing some Fallo… Oh look! I’ve shit myself!

I haven’t saved in an hour and a half & now I’m absolutely covered in it!

u/Coxy1504 — 5 days ago

I don’t wanna over saturate the sub…

Hi guys. Just wanted to check the consensus. I’ve posted a couple days in a row with my load order & some screenshots.

Thing is, I keep playing more & finding new weapons, armors & visiting new locations but I don’t want to over post as it were. I’m quite proud of what I’ve built so am happy to share.

My question is how much is too much? 😂

Just some snaps from hours 10-20! +LO tweaks

Hiya guys. Managed to play through to the 20 hour mark today. Thought I’d post a little update as I’ve tweaked just a couple of things & also have some notes on the LO.

So 20 hours in & still no crashes! Some people on my last post mentioned that there’s reported issues with wasteland illumination fixed & diamond city lights. Personally they have been fine for me, but I’m keeping an eye on these two as I go.

But I managed to clear out corvega, went over to medtek to get my thermal goggles,pushed down to diamond city & now I’ve started doing some of the American rising 2 quests. It’s been really great so far, voice acting is awesome, im very intrigued to see where it goes as I’ve gone in blind. I have had one kind of issue with it but I’ll put that in my notes below.

Another highlight so far has been the makeshift scout rifle! Guys please install this mod 😂 it may not be the strongest rifle out there but I think it’s great and It really has been good fun to use. I was already planning on mentioning this mod & then I had a two shot variant of it drop which was beyond exciting. Another couple of really sweet weapons I’ve been enjoying early doors are the 32 machine pistol & more recently the AS VAL simplified.

And just to touch on Lightweight lighting - interiors only. I love it… I just do. For years I feel like every lighting mod I’ve tried has made interiors a pitch black abyss. But with this mod most are fairly well lit, or atleast lit enough I don’t need my flashlight on the entire time. And even the ones that are a bit darker look fantastic too 😂 it’s great, would recommend.

Anyways, I’ll put the ever so slightly tweaked load order in a comment with a few notes of things I’ve noticed below it 👍

Just some snaps from my first 10 hours or so post update!

My first attempt at a Load order post storage upgrade! Having so much fun with it thus far.

Pre update my last load order was a winter playthrough with icepick overhaul & polluted climate so I wanted to mix it up a bit and go for a more lush, green playthrough this time round & im enjoying how it looks.

Playing on survival mode (obviously m) and I’ve tried to make it somewhat challenging for myself so ended up spending the first couple hours exploring a small town called Urbandale added by atomic world 2.0 (I think lol). Once I cleared that place out I went ahead and bailed out the minutemen. Then made my way down to Lexington to collect the survivalist bus which seems badass as hell. In doing so I came across a bunch of the new buildings from Lexington interiors which were super fun aswell. All of the above with a big fat 0 crashes (YET)!!!

All in all, loving the 100GB update, glad I came back over from Skyrim hahahaha.

Obviously I’m still kinda testing & it may all fall apart soon as I’m only 10hrs in, but I’ll Chuck the load order in a comment below :)

u/Coxy1504 — 7 days ago

So I need some help

Hiya guys. What it is, I’m trying to remove the bullet sponginess of enemies in the game as it is just horrendously tedious & unrealistic. However whatever mods I try make it so that I just get one shorted by almost everything I come across, be that bloatflies, raiders mole rats etc etc.

What mods do you guys use to negate the need to bury 45 rounds into an enemies skull?

New load order - post update

Right guys, I am starting my engine! 😂

I’ve spent sometime putting the below together for my first playthrough after the mega storage update. I was hoping someone wouldn’t mind having a little look through & just point out if there is anything in the wrong order/ any major conflicts/ any mods that I should be avoiding.

Of course any feedback would be awesome & greatly appreciated, thank you in advance :)

Edit: I plan on reviewing tales from the commonwealth & immersive movement for stability/ alternatives which is why they have symbols around them hahaha

Should I use UFO4P?

Basically as the title states, I’m putting together my new LO & have heard mixed things over the years.

What’s the general consensus now days? To use or not to use?

Post update advice

Hiya guys. So I spent months and months researching mods to build a load order for when the 100GB updated finally released on my series X. I did however not take into account the 245 mod limit (I want to set myself on fucking fire). So I’m having to massively cut what I had planned (again, I want to set my self on fire).

I have the general gist of what I want so can go through cutting somewhat confidently. However I had far far farrrrr too many weapon mods planned for the list hahahaha. So my questions are as follows:

  1. Whatre your guys favourite weapon mods I should try include?

  2. have there been any good weapon mod bundles released since the update? (Or any other type of mod bundle that I should look into?)

  3. what are your favourite landscape mods? I’m struggling & very undecided with this one & want to get a grasp of what the community thinks

I appreciate any & all replies :)

Dude, that was awesome

Now I’ve played a lot of Skyrim over the years. Mainly in a big long stint back in like 2012 & then about 1000 subsequent (attempted) modded playthroughs since.

Well anyway I’ve managed to put together a load order I’m happy with & feel like it’s got some real legs. But I got 20 odd hours in & decided to go check out this Dawnguard quest Ive received every playthrough & never bothered with… and it seems really cool! I’ve didn’t have the DLC way back when & just never bothered on my modded runs but I’m glad I did.

Managed to make my way through the quests to the soul cairn & I haven’t been that intrigued by skyrim in years. All of a sudden there was this whole new mini world within Skyrim that I had no idea existed & it was fresh to explore.

So I spent a solid 5, maybe 6 hours sneaking into a giant vampire castle, finding a pocket dimension where I could poke around all these new POI’s. I completed a couple of quests, killed a soul trapped dragon, slapped some dude called the reaper silly, and, AND, now I have an epic ghost horse of some description that I can summon on demand!

What a game, what a time to be alive

u/Coxy1504 — 28 days ago

With the new storage update:

So my understanding is that although we’re getting a metric fuck tone of extra space (which is obviously fantastic), the limit on number of mods we can have installed is going to remain the same?

So just a few questions for you guys:

  1. can someone please clarify the maximum number of mods a series x can have at once? (I’ve seen a couple of different numbers stated 😅)

  2. creations count towards the above number?

  3. due to the limit remaining in place, are we likely to have more bundles released to compensate?

Not that I would expect any new bits like bundles etc to drop immediately, just wanted to get a gauge of what people recon is coming down the road
