My 12 Mods I Can't Live Without (Fallout 4)

[@genericgmd]

The game was most definitely supposed to have dogmeat and a companion at the same time because whenever you enter one of the vaults (the inhabited one i cant remember the number) they mention that you have a companion and a dog at the same time

[@equest511]

There is also a level perk that you can activate and invest skill points in, where it doesn't even count dogmeat as a (real) companion, therefore it doesn't give you the "debuff" effect that normally comes with the perk if you had "humanoid/robotic" companion with you. I forgot what it was, if i remember correctly it had something to do with "carry less weight"?

Does this moonboots mod cover the bos fatigues as well? I certainly hope so...

[@JackKirbyFan]

Loved it. Thank you for your time. Some small suggestions 1) Longer Power Lines - just what it says for settlement building. 2) No Endless Gratitute -> fixes a bug where you defend a settlement and get endless thank yous 3) Radioactive signs -> not what it says. It lights up the various signs throughout the commonwealth and it looks gorgeous at night. 4) Colored Workshop lights -> add gorgeous lights to any settlement and the light colors mix together creating an awesome color spectacle. 5) Docile Ragstags -> because I hate having to kill them. 6) Malt Shop Mayham -> adds a new DJ and a great collection of 50's songs 7) previsibines Repair Pack (PRP) fixes broken premeshes and if you've ever encountered this -> it's a lifesaver. 8) Stronger Diamond City guards -> now they don't die like flies when attacking Supermutants 9) Take your Cores -> simple mod to auto remove the core when getting out of powerarmor so a settler can't steal it 10) We are the minuteman -> overhaul of the minuteman making them far stronger in combat with better outfits and far less radiant quests from Preston Garvey.

[@Nobody-471]

Here's some things I wish I could do in Fallout 4 1. Tell that nagging bitch Marcy Long to shut her trap and lighten the f**k up! 😂 2. Get other Minutemen to help out the settlements instead of it only being me doing it all. Minutemen? More like one Minuteman who does everything while Preston just walks around being glad it isn't raining or hammers the outside of a house! 3. Respond to enemies in a fight. Raider: Ain't my first gun fight, rookie! My character: No, but it IS your last! *Kills Raider* 4. Repair and use vehicles. I'm fed up of running everywhere XD I wish I could take one of the abandoned cars, fix it up and drive 5. Disarm enemies. I don't mean hitting them and maybe they'll drop a gun on the ground. I want to actually take the weapons out of their hands! 6. Counter enemy Melee attacks 7. Use junk objects as weapons. 8. Smoke. There's cigars, cigarettes and lighters lying around and well, why not put them to use?

[@teemup9247]

About the Dogmeat + one companion...it definitely was supposed to be in the base game. I also noticed on interaction when going to vault 88 for the first time with Preston and Dogmeat, the security guy asked the overseer (when they let me in) "what about the man and dog with him".

The "rename everything" mod is rad, you can make the entire game much more fancy by renaming the "Door" to "Dior"!

[@cyanide7270]

One of mine is True Storms. It adds more variable weather and radiation storms that differ in severity which are completely customizable for frequency and such, but the best part? during radiation storms youll get attacked by a horde of feral ghouls, which you can again customize as to how many are sent at you, to simulate the Ghouls leaving the Glowing Sea. Its pretty sweet!

[@wolfwilkopter2231]

Combine that with NAC X and proper patches and loadorder and you get the best of both! Oh and dont forget to add "True Nights" and "Sounds of Evil - Ghouls" as well.

[@SynthLizard8]

Mine is Sim Settlements 2, it takes the monotomy out of building settlements, set a settlement to the default city plain and it'll take care of things from there.

[@jimjam7928]

It also adds so much story content to the base game that, as far as I'm convinced, at this point it finely demonstrates what Fallout 4 should have been. Kinggath and co. should just be handed the keys for Fallout 5 at this point.

[@SynthLizard8]

@@jimjam7928 Also, SS2 in addition to 'We Are the Minutemen' overhaul and other tweaking Minutemen mods and it genuinely feels like you're building up a rivalling nation to the NCR with it's own army and economy.

[@dominicesquivel3901]

Hey so quick question how is sim settlements 2 compared to 1 in your opinion? I havnt played really with either but from what I can tell sim 1 is more or less complete and has expansion packs for the dlc.

[@SynthLizard8]

@@dominicesquivel3901 Sim settlements 1 was pretty much focused on laying down plots for settlers to build on and a few miscellaneous things around it like power poles, SS2 however is all that and much more with a new quest-line, side-quests too with NPC's and the voice acting is pretty good-if not better then vanilla with no low-quality recordings or those oddball, heavy fake accents you get in some mods. I couple SS2 with "We are the minutemen" and to me this IS cannon Fallout 4, you reclaim the land for the people, rebuild your army and the Commonwealth one settlement at a time and could become the next nation state like the NCR, with it's own standing army.

[@nairocamilo]

I can't believe there was a solution for those clown boots back from 2016. I never knew how to look for a mod to "solve" my pet peeve, so thank you Dak, "Moon Boots Begone" is going straight into that Data folder

Laser Weapons 1st Person Reposition is an essential part of my load order. I actually like the Institute Laser Rifle/Pistol, but the vanilla 1st person view models are why I call it the laser bazooka.

“It just works” nice reference 😂

[@Armag90n]

I actually really like the FO4 ferals, the burned, melting flesh gives such a mutated, irradiated look to them with works so well imo. It makes it look like the ghouls took on too much radiation and went mad because of it. The fact that they’re so revoltingly ugly is the appeal to me. But the NV ferals don’t actually look much worse than the regular ones. They just look like people who’re missing their skin

[@DoomSlayer65]

I think the fallout 4 ones look more realistic, and the re-texture makes them look too cartoonish.

[@solidsnakeshugecake]

The fo4 ones look creepy from the weird appearance that looks like something out of love crafts stories, whereas older ones just looked straight up creepy

[@wolfwilkopter2231]

Add "Sounds of Evil - Ghouls" to the Ghouls, either version, makes em much scarier.

I use Rename to give my settlers (all named Settler) unique and individual names. Place Everywhere has a permanent spot in my load order. One note for people who want to do "no mod" builds. Most of you will spend a silly amount of time struggling with the pillar and rug glitches to get things into place. Place Everywhere is the pillar and rug glitch (without the glitch part) and it's set up to be "built in" to the workshop mode. It literally lets you pillar/rug glitch without the struggle! So you can use this one mod and still proudly proclaim you did it "no mods" because it's the same thing you would be doing anyway. Also, I personally consider using the glitches to be a form of "building with mods", so there's that too. 😀 I have Everyone's Best Friend but I don't use it much. I find having any companion with me, they get in the way more than anything else (which is a common problem in most games) and Dogmeat is the worst!

[@fireblast133]

i kinda like Be Exceptional cause it A) makes demolitionist one of the skills instead of a perk, and B) Makes the throwing arc a perk you can choose to take or not. The mod just makes leveling up behave more like previous games where you got skill points each level based on intelligence and perk points once per level (and I think it's settings can be tinkered with)

[@mr24coja]

Yeah, then there is also Be Exceptional Rebalanced, which changes the level up curve to be more like New Vegas

[@fireblast133]

@@mr24coja yeah, but it looks like all that does is nerf skill point obtainment. Which honestly i don't mind the rate of skill points in the original. It still takes leveling past 50 to max all skills even with the most efficient skill point rate (10 int, grab intelligence bobblehead asap, get educated asap)

[@mr24coja]

@@fireblast133 Which is a good thing, you level much faster in fo4 than you did in fnv. Without the Rebalanced you get everything wayyy too fast. Which is fine if you enjoy a power fantasy and don't really care about game balance

[@davem4509]

Pro tip for Place Everywhere for keyboards with no numpad: If you're on PC with a smaller keyboard, it's probably a gaming keyboard. Remapping some macros or key combos to call Place Everywhere hotkeys is a lot easier than editing the Place Everywhere ini file to give you access to all the hotkeys.

[@biggusotongus1121]

I had this problem, another option is if you have those gaming mouse with multiple buttons that you never really utilize, you can map those buttons for the shortcuts.

[@thornescapes7707]

Wow. I had heard of Place Anywhere and always been tempted to get it... I had absolutely no idea about the extra features it has. Those are amazing. That changes everything. Thank you!

[@The_Bacon_Dragon]

The one thing you have to be careful of with Lots More Hairstyles is you should have your facial hair picked before you pick the hair. Otherwise it won't seem to let you select facial hair afterwards. Honestly though, I'm surprised they didn't just make that or the merged facial hair styles a default for Vanilla Fallout considering all the great options it gives you. Everyone's Best Friend is fantastic, you just gotta be careful managing inventory when giving companions items and who you're commanding.

[@PapaTroll86]

Great list! I was just thinking yesterday how I absolutely couldn't play without Place Anywhere. However, I would include one of the most overlooked and G.O.A.T. mods "Crafting Framework," by Dankraaft (previously known as "Legendary Crafting Framework.") It allows full custom modification on every aspect of all weapons and armor, vanilla OR mod added. It makes any weapon or armor relevant at any point in a playthrough and gives you full control on it's stats, usability and features. It adds so much more variety for any playthrough. Before, I had quite a few weapon and armor mods and even vanilla items I loved that were too under-powered or over-powered and now I can use them all. One of the greatest quality of life mods of all-time, hands down and sooo overlooked and missed. I can't imagine how it wouldn't be a staple in anyone's load order.

I have had over 300 Mods in my builds in the past, so far in my current game I have 261. I use a couple dozen cosmetic Mods so I can do more than rename a character. For me, "CBBE" and "Body Slide" are a MUST.😁 "Scrap Anything," "Place Anywhere," "Animation Framework," and "Photo Mode" are great, but I figure that some things would be CLEANER after over 200 years, so I use "Clean Shacks and Warehouses," Institute build Mods, "Cars Redux," and more. Some other basic good practical Mods are "Longer Power Lines," "Homemaker," and obviously "F4Se," "SMM," as well as "Armor Weapons and Keywords." While it isn't a Mod, the command code I like a lot is "openactorcontainer 1." Can't wait for "Fallout London" to release.

Dude, as a new Fallout 4 player it's great to see updated Mods suggestions, and not from 7 years ago! Love your videos! You won't believe it, but after hours and hours searching for good QoL mods, I stumbled upon several ofl these Mods! Here's my opinion about them: - Moon Boots: The change is subtle, yet noticeable! It's a good QoL Mod! - Throwing Arc: This mod's immersive. I didn't like that arc either and that was a reason I wasn't leveling Explosives. - Rename Anything: Recently I replaced "What's Your Name" for this mod, but I haven't tried it yet. I want to used it specially on Settlers. - Sprint Reload: This is quite difficult to do irl, so I skipped this 'cause it's more realistic to slow down in order to reload your weapon. - Place Everywhere: At first I thought this mod was gonna break my game, but it did quite the opposite. Having control of the things you're building in a semi-sandbox mode is actually more immersive than the Vanilla experience. - Makeshift Welds: This is a MUST for me! After I installed this mod, I automatically started using Pipe weapons a lot more frequent! - Immersive Animations: I haven't tried this mod yet, 'cause I had a (similar) mod for drinks called "Have a Beer" which bugged all the time! - More Hairstyles: I'm definitely gonna try this mod! The only hairstyle mods I liked was from the Bethesda mods, but since I'm using MO2 and disabled both Creation Club and Bethesda Mods, I don't wanna install mods from that source anymore. - Best Friends: It's a feature meant to be ingame! It's great! - Feral Ghouls: Not too shabby! Didn't know about this retexture until now, and I'll give it a try! - Coyotes: Same as above! Coyotes are not that aggressive irl, but Rad can make anything possible! I would have liked to see them will slight mutations or malformations. - Laser Fix: Worried that might interfere with "Lowered Weapons" mod. - Photo Mode: One of the best QoL mods out there! This fixed my problem about wanting to take screenshots without the HUD active, so I got rid of Immersive HUD.

[@ragabashmoon1551]

Yea, Everybody's Best Friend is for sure the BEST BEST BEST mod.. They said the reason they removed it from the vanilla game is they decided that it was a bit too strong to have both Dogmeat and a companion especially with him being able to carry stuff same as everyone else, but that's also why they made it so the Lone Wanderer perk doesn't count Dogmeat.

I totally understand moon boots being a necessity for you. My biggest pet peeve with fallout 4 is most of the armor is oddly fat and chunky even on the slimmest body types. Its only a small, barely noticeable problem with one piece outfits, but under armor like the minuteman outfit, vault suits, road leathers, and military uniform are hideous when you notice that they alter how armor fits the body. Most cases being making the forearm, leg, and/or foot armor comically large when worn over them.

@@AdenTheWolf I just don't like it on my character, sometimes it clips with modded armors and I also just like to alternate start so I'm not in a prewar mindset person

[@AdenTheWolf]

@@michaellovecat ohh okay

[@Obsolecent_Weapons]

How DARE you make me notice the moon boots after so many years.

[@ShiftzGamingLounge]

Love to see another German Shepherd owner jamming Fallout as much as I do, my Shepherds name is Hercules and his dads name is also Zeus! 😂

[@Mohmar2010]

My 1. Would be Unofficial Patch However i wonder how many of the bugs from that mod will be updated with the update that's dropping soon

[@ForWeAreMany]

bruh, your dog is named Zeus? I called mine Mars! We do be hitting that Greeko-Roman aspiration huh?

[@jackvolkwyn470]

bro has unique priorities xD

[@friedrichwulfgang3655]

For some reason, 'moon boots begone' makes me think of those moon shoes from the early 2000s.

[@timsawyer9231]

I'm always rolling with DogMeat, Heather and whatever vanilla companion I feel like taking with me. Curie has been tagging along for a while now, just because I like her voice haha. Tac vest on DogMeat and everyone else is rocking T-60's decked to the max. I can just sit back with DogMeat and watch the girls tear apart anything that tries to get near us. It's straight up blood lust, those ladies are diabolical.

[@nathanspohn9881]

is there anywhere else that you can find the 1st person reposition? The Nexus link mod isn't available anymore :(

[@Sksk27547]

There is not enough institute mods out there. This helps with that, hilarious 😂

[@BreakerX42]

Now I want to see you just do a non-modded playthrough What do you use for the brightness?

[@gpthree]

I agree on the pipe retexture. I went from hating them to like seeing them in game now.

[@Bear-Knight]

I like to run around with 3 companions. But they are either from Fcom and don't talk or they are custom recruits. Also I replaced a lot of spawns with Raiders/Children of Atom, gave them better armor and weapons that are high level from the start the game. I need a squad now. I adjust my in/out damage so that is still difficult, and slow reactions get squad members killed.

[@plantainsame2049]

I have a multi companion framework style mod still only use the maximum of three companions including Dogmeat with the exception of big fight cuz having all the companions in The Institute makes

[@craig.a.glesner]

One of my goto always install mods is HOLOTIME which gives my former cybernetic soldier self a widget that shows both game and real time. Love having a HUD clock.

[@ChrissieBear]

2:27 The arc is the only reason to take that perk though. xD

[@CJ101Crew]

Me: I think I have enought mods to make my game immersive Dak: So here's my top 12... Me: Starts downloading more mods

[@TougeSlayer]

Ive been using place everywhere for like a year now. I didn't know about the hotkeys lol thx bro

[@Jo3man96]

I personally prefer the fallout 4 ghouls, they kinda remind me of the descriptions from survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki of people who survived short term with really extreme burns, where their skin basically melted off, although reading their accounts for the first time when I was about 12 affected my sleep for a week or so. Personal taste though.

[@thequestion2859]

I love all of these mods and I'm gonna be using em all from now on, you and I have very similar taste

[@Bahlzeron]

Sim Settlements, Modular Simonov PTRS-41, Love to Craft - Legendary, a few others that I forget the names of (havent played FO4 in a while)

[@Sapwolf]

"Salvage Beacons" Fantastic mod.

[@skywalker32711]

Thanks for the recommendations! I am rebuilding my base load out to clone to other profiles (MO2) and this has been informative. However... Gotta call click bait on the title and thumbnail a little, because you set it up there for all this to be sung to "12 days of Christmas"... What gives, man? 😂😜 A few days after Christmas... Dak gave us a shout... And showed us mods he could not live without.... 🎄

[@sheogoraththedaedricprince9675]

Remember that Tesla PA? Really wanting it in a smaller package like combat armor.
