Must Have Fallout 4 Mods of 2022

[@OscarN1N7]

A few honourable mentions I'd throw out there from 2022: Charger Pistol by Gmoi Climbable Ladders by neeher Institute Pulse Carbine by... some guy, sorry, I don't remember.

[@HattaTHEZulZILLA86]

Yeah... I somehow can't seem to remember all of a sudden too... What a mysteriously mysterious mystery lol

[@KasumiRINA]

OMG people laughed at KOEI for touting climbable ladders as a feature in 2007, claiming Japanese games are so backwards compared to western ones. Meanwhile, western AAA devs need a mod to climb ladders in 2022. It just works?

[@JohnnyKimchi]

I absolutely LOVE FGEP and Fall Evil combined! And also recently (sadly), really getting into weapons mods! I'm excited to download Rifles Rebirth!

[@nelitogorostiza16]

I play on Xbox, I run Commonwealth of decay + FGEP + Fallevil mods. It's awesome.

Rifles Rebirth is truly fantastic. If I could recommend just one weapon mod (or pack) to anyone, it would definitely be that one.

@@ConjureIsMe I just tried it the past day and I really like it! I haven't tried FGEP, Fallevil with Commonwealth of Decay. Does it run ok on Xbox? I haven't played on Xbox since I bought a PC.

I really like how you showed Reactor on/off, as I don't usually use ENBs as well. Will definetely check it out!

[@drdemento3244]

I recently found your channel and am really enjoying the content. Modding on this game is great and these reviews help.

[@Rigel_Chiokis]

Gun For Hire is a fun side-line to playing the quests and it does work better starting it when you first arrive at Diamond City, as doing the game quests can help improve your reputation. Oh, and you get a personal vertibird! A note of correction: what you see on Nexus Mods is a repost. He notes that the mod won Mod of the Month in 2021, so it actually came out last year.

[@RadioSwingShift]

Hey Dak! I don't know if you've covered it yet, but The Bleachers - A Diamond City Story gets my vote for best story/building mod. It has incredible emotional notes, fully voiced characters and the locations are excellently decorated and completely lore friendly! Also - The Bleachers is getting an update this year with a second chapter to the story: The Fens Sheriff's Department. I would love to see you cover this mod with your own particular storytelling style!

[@north7992]

I honestly used primarily modern tactical weapon mods until lately, just because they were typically higher quality/nicer to play with but with just how many high quality lore-friendly weapon packs there are now it was pretty easy to change over and tidy up my load order on them, and it's just a better experience. Projects like the Wasteland Wide Warehouse Project get me even more excited for this year and Fallout modding.

[@IAmFwee]

Same here. I started my load order over completely from scratch just so I could recreate every weapon from every previous fallout game, and so far, I'm surprised at the number I've actually managed to get.

[@JounLord1]

Same. Though for me I just started moving away from the tactical packs because of how bloated they were, multi GB size that I felt were too big for what they had and my potato PC couldn't really take advantage of some high rez 4k textures anyway if thats why they were so big. Been trying to skinny up my downloads with some of the new land mods coming out with Point Lookout being the first. Plus lore friendly weapons just fit the world better.

[@wheesock6775]

What about Building Bridges? It’s a mod that adds Dark Souls like messages that players can write, and show up in other player’s games through the power of It Just Working. Breaks up the inherent monotony of a singleplayer game with hints of tomfoolery and messages from other players.

[@DegenerateDak]

it's a neat idea but I wouldn't call it a must have

[@LordDamo]

"Try finger but hole"

[@5226-p1e]

Question, are there any mods that take away everything on your UI and replace it with audio cues, such as panting when low on health or a certain type of breathing when you have your RADS at a certain threshold, so you can manage everything without necessarily having a UI show up on the screen? Does such a mod exist?

Wonder how well FGEP would work with Zombie Walkers. Love the horde spawns from ZW, FGEP would make it insane

[@rickywalter6707]

That would be a lot of fun! Sadly I’m worried that even if I had stability mods installed, I bet the game will crash every time a massive horde of ghouls spawn.

[@ChristopherSetera]

I believe there is a compat mod for the two

[@grimacelabsinc.4275]

They work surprisingly well together! Place ZW above FGEP and then the patch below both. It really adds a great layer of diversity to the Ghoul faction, and I loved it. Used it on console with a fairly loaded mod list and oddly enough occasionally I would only get some slight frame rate loss or the even rarer world lag. Game hardly crashed due to FEGP.

those are some awesome looking Ghouls that FGEP adds

[@RosemaryCemetery]

I think the first person running animations and also the swimming animations are some of the best this year.

[@theancientgamer8524]

Point Lookout IS amazing and should be experienced by all; such a great mod! I only had one gripe with it that's been fixed with another...Point Lookout involves Dunwich Borers as a part of one of it's quests and kinda destroys parts of the interior cell with flashing/missing textures, meaning stairways and other things literally disappearing as you walk on them. A mod has come out to fix this...sadly, I don't remember the name (reserving the right to update this once I'm home and not commenting on my phone) and my current character is in Nuka World when this came out, so I haven't seen it at work just yet. I'm sure you can find it easily enough by searching "Point Lookout" and seeing all the cool additions to this that people have made, like the integration mod that spreads Point Lookout weapons to the Commonwealth. Can't wait to check this one out!

[@TargetedFox]

The mod that fixes the flickering is Previsibines Repair Pack (PRP) by BenRierimanu, the point lookout fix is now there as an optional file

[@theancientgamer8524]

[@Psyrens]

Personally here to say that Rifles Rebirth is an incredibly well made mod. Out of every mod I have ran (both consoles and pc) it has never failed or had a conflict, broken, or anything. It's always running perfectly to the point that it just stays as a part of the base game no matter what playthrough now I can't really play fallout without some of these guns.

[@composition01]

Do you know what other mods I need? It says I don’t have certain files that I need

[@Psyrens]

@Hector Rivera OH! Generally, I'd download Loads of Ammo and/or New Calibers too. I don't think it directly needs them, but they both pair very well. Doombased's weapon pack will also stack with it and can utilize them as well

Dude i was litteraly just thinking about a dante from devil may cry like character and then boom guns for hire

[@AnimeShinigami13]

I wholeheartedly endorse the Mutant Menagerie series of mods. And there IS a Mutant Menagerie for the Point Lookout remake called "Backwater Beasts." I'm definately getting the feral ghoul mod and I've already streamed the entire point lookout remake dlc in the week leading up to Halloween. The initial siege in the mansion was bugged, I had to use commands to skip it so I probably missed out on loot. There's a fully functional settlement and player home (an interior cell for your privacy.) So you can resupply, dump your loot and mod your newer weapons. Also Backwater Beasts adds some foods for the Cannibal perk so if you're doing an evil playthrough, YOU CAN EAT PROFESSOR CALVERT!!!! By the end of it I was so annoyed with Desmond I just killed the both of them. Its like "dude I just blasted my way through all these tribals and robots AND I got a piece of my brain cut out and this is how you treat me? Hell no. I call hostile working environment. And now I'm about to make it even more hostile!" What was hilarious though was that I WALKED AWAY and they continued arguing with each other and insulting each other. I pretty much facepalmed and started chucking grenades. Edit: Also Dak if you do a review of Mutant Menagerie PLEASE HELP ME find one of the components I need for the Nuka World weapons it adds. It adds something called "Stable Quantum Flux" which I need to make a Quantum Annihilator (think laser submachine gun like new vegas) and a quantum plasma rifle/pistol. I can't find one last component i need to make Stable Quantum Flux, High Radiation Fluids. I've already finished Nukaworld and I think I'm missing something here.

I personally refuse to use NAC/NACX because it has a really annoying lighting glitch in it. At least I believe it's from NAC/NACX because I only notice it when using it, basically the lighting will drastically change when looking at a certain direction.

[@Suicynic]

No matter what, just seems like I cannot get fallout 4 to run with mods for last year or so. I know it’s probably incompatibilities or load order but fuck man I just watched that 300+ modded playthrough and I really gotta take the time to do some searching and see if I can’t do another playthrough. Just because of mods; my favorite fallout. No mods, 3 was my favorite, all dlcs, just brilliant when it came out! Really considering giving new Vegas a proper try with all dlcs.

[@cgb9398]

There's a performance optimization guide on nexus called Smoothout. Its pretty in depth and even teaches you what to watch out for with some mods that claim to improve stability and performance. What also helps save FPS is packing loose models and textures from the mods you download into BA2 files. The F4 Creation Kit comes with a program called Archive2 which allows you to do this. In general, not having mods that break precombines or too many mods that run scripts helps as well.
