Fallout 4 Mods Options

[SubRosa]

I thought I would make a separate mod topic for Fallout 4, since having mods for FO3, NV, and 4 would be a little crowded for one thread.

I started FO4 a few days ago, and quickly came across some must have mods to simply play the game at all.

The Fallout 4 Script Extender - F4SE = Just like the other Beth games, this is a necessary utility.

Mod Organizer 2.0 = The successor to FOMM, for your mod installing and load order sorting needs. Not as good as FOMM, but it is better than nothing.

LooksMenu = This gives you a list of body parts to choose from when creating a character, rather than playing hunt-the-pixel by mousing over every speck of your characters face to see what you can change and what you cannot.

Valkyr Female Face and Body Textures = A much more natural-looking texture. Not as plastic and shiny looking as the vanilla textures are.

Ponytail Hairstyles = From our old friend Azar. Because you never want the vanilla hair in a Bethesda game.

CC's Improved Hair Colors = Because every hair color in the vanilla game is brown.

True Eyes = Improved eye textures.

Face Ripper = For copying faces between characters.

Full Dialog Interface = So you actually know what we are saying.

Dot Instead Of Crosshair = Gives you a small, unobtrusive dot instead of those big ugly crosshairs. As an added bonus you can actually see exactly what you are aiming at.

Moon Size Adjuster = Allows you to make the moon larger. A little bit goes a long way. I went with 1.5x, the smallest increase.

Moon - Beautiful Hi Res Texture = Looks much better than the vanilla moon.

Visible Galaxy 4k = Comes with the stars too. Much better than the vanilla night sky.

No Smoking = Because its gross. Not to mention there would not be any cigarettes or cigars lefter after 200 years.

The thing I hate about the hunting rifle is the bolt action. Otherwise I would not replace it at all. So I went ahead and replaced it with the M14. Ten minutes later I was being attacked by Gunners with M14s.

So far I have done the Combat Rifle, Assault Rifle, and Hunting Rifle. Maybe tomorrow I will start on the Pipe guns. Those are the ones I dislike the most. Not simply because of their appearance, they are just completely useless. So naturally they are everywhere. I would like to have some decent guns locked away in every safe and crate, instead of those things.

Most of the guns in F4 look really underwhelming to me. I like real world weapons better than fantasy ones. The fantasy ones just tend to look wrong to me. I would rather see M110 Sniper Semi Auto Systems, M16s, M4s, HK 416/17s, AKs, SCARs, etc... It makes the game feel more immersive to me.

Funny thing is, I was looking at The Rebel Alliance's Blastech A280 rifle the other day. I think that is a really cool looking gun. I wish they had done more like that Fallout 4. While it is a 'fantasy' gun, you can clearly see the real world weapon designs integrated into it, like the AR-15 receiver.

This is one reason Khajiit likes the SMG, Combat Rifle, and Handmade Rifle. They look like real world weapons (Tommygun, BAR, and AK, respectively.)
