Fallout 4 - Known Engine Bugs The following is a list of known engine bugs as of the official 1.7.15 release. These are things Bethesda has to fix on their end otherwise they impose undue limitations on the ability to mod the game. Power Armor Resets In Settlements As described so far, power armor brought to a settlement area will be reset to its default configuration when the settlement location is next called for a cell reset. It appears that the cause of this is any attempt to change the X/Y/Z dimensions of the buildable area for a given settlement. PC Workaround: None known thus far, other than not trying to change settlement dimensions. XB1/PS4 Workaround: Uninstall any mods which cause this to happen. This issue has been confirmed by Bethesda and a fix is pending: https://community.bethesda.net/thread/13747 Editing Actors Turns Them White, Loses Facial Features Editing information on an Actor record results in their skin color changing to white (caucasian) and the loss of facial features such as freckles or scars. This is an old engine bug that has been around since Fallout 3, that somehow skipped over Skyrim. The cause has never been identified. Preferred Workaround: Check the "Is Chargen Face Preset" flag in the Actor record. Alternative Workaround: Change the mod to operate as a master file. This is not recommended though, due to the next bug... This issue has been tested and confirmed to be fixed as of Official Patch 1.7.15. Their changelogs do not note this though. User Generated ESM Files Load Before Official DLC When using the official Mods menu in the UI, user added mods are the only things displayed on the Load Order list. Upon saving you will find that any user generated ESM files are now listed in between Fallout4.esm and the official DLCs. The underlying cause for this is not known, but it's obvious Bethesda is incorrectly prioritizing the official DLC master files. This issue has been fixed as of Official Patch 1.6.3.0. Weapons Dropped By Actors Killed in Combat Never Clean up When Cells Reset [Fixed - Patch 1.6] Killing an NPC generally causes their weapon to fall away from the body as a separate object. These do not reset when the cells reset. Eventually, after a long enough time, the save will bloat up with leftover weapon forms lying around all over the place, and if you played heavily for long enough, you could exhaust the pool of generated form IDs in the FF range because they aren't getting cleaned up. The internal cause is unknown, but was also a huge problem in Skyrim that was never fixed. This issue is now fixed as of Official Patch 1.6. Bethesda's changelog does not note this, but it has been confirmed. The workaround in the UFO4P has been removed as a result. Cannot Reposition Scrappable Static Objects There are a number of objects in the game that can be moved around in the workshops menu that are already present in a settlement. Obejcts such as grills, patio furniture, etc. If a scrap formula is created for these objects, they can no longer be repositioned. They can only be stored or scrapped. Make enough scrap formulas and you could end up being unable to reposition anything in your settlements. The exact cause is unknown, but is likely a UI related bug as it seems to be related to UI filtering of some sort. The UFO4P initially caused this issue to show up for radios, but information came to light that adding the 3 craftable radios to the workshopScrapRecipe_Radio was causing this. Removing those 3 radios from the list restored the ability to reposition radios in general. This issue has not yet been acknowledged by Bethesda. See thread: https://community.bethesda.net/thread/10250 Edits to *ANY* Cell Records Can Block Mesh Overrides If you are editing any cell, whether exterior or interior, your edits may end up blocking the ability for the game to use a mesh or texture override even if that replacer does not contain an esp file of its own. It is difficult to diagnose because WHAT you edit matters rather than WHERE you edit. Flipping your mod to an ESM flagged file does not help. What the underlying cause is is not known at the moment, but the basics of it are that each cell record has a list of Precombined meshes stored in a lengthy XCRI subrecord. As long as the reference you are editing is one of these in the list, you will have no problems and straight file replacers will work as expected. If what you edit is NOT in this list, nothing you do will get the game to load the replacer. Workaround: Make a small edit to one of the references in the XCRI list. This will then allow the cell to behave normally as though nothing was wrong. Finding a reference that's appropriate to edit requires the use of xEdit though since these lists are not available in the CK. If the reference you are editing was already in this list, you have effectively used the workaround and all consequences of editing it that go with that. This workaround comes with a price though. It disables the precombined mesh system in that cell, which will result in a performance drop. Rack up enough of these over enough cells and you're going to be in trouble even on higher end machines. This issue has been acknowledged by Bethesda. Reported here: https://community.bethesda.net/thread/13241 (Credit to VIitS on Nexus for explaining it) The above issue has been unfortunately confirmed to be how their system is intended to work. This has the potential to be severely limiting to any mods editing cell data whether it's an exterior or interior. Further updates on this issue. Apparently SOME of it isn't intended after all and an "upcoming patch" will be addressing it. As of Patch 1.6, this problem is now SUBSTANTIALY WORSE than before. If a mod, whether flagged as an ESM or not, edits ANY reference in a cell that's part of a precombined mesh, all of the other references which are also part of that will simply not load when approached on foot (and presumably via fast travel). No collision, nothing. Just void space with Havok objects flaoting in the air that fall to the ground once touched. Removing only those edits which touch a precombined mesh resolves the problem, but that's not going to be feasible in a lot of cases. Disappearing buildings are confirmed fixed as of Official Patch 1.7.7.0. It is still unknown if this has corrected the greater problem of disabling precomb in a cell.

I Have been trying to use loot it help with plugins but still don't know what I'm doing. It says I have 6 dirty plugins but don't know which ones.

As for Skyrim just here only ask questions about Fallout 4. When creating a modification adding new STAT with NavCut for workshop I noticed that none of the meshes from Vanilla or DLC which have NavCuts do not have "Obstacle" flag for them. (creationkit.com reference) I have add "Obstacle" flag to the new STAT with NavCuts or not?

Now that F4SE Team repaired keyboard keys binding it is time to take for the UI and INI. A couple useful settings for INI files. Please note that English is not my native language. What can you expect here: - In time, there will be more - You will find here settings that are not present in INI files or can not be changed using Fallout4Launcher.exe - All setings have been tested - They have default values - Most of the settings explains itself (self explanatory by the variable name) - Work for Game version 1.5.157. What you will never find here: - uGridsToLoad Setings and etc... - Settings to manage game memory and etc... - And all other setings which leads to the instability of the game Some Help Field of view in video games.

In case you're living under a rock: https://bethesda.net/#en/events/game/mods-and-4k-coming-to-ps4-for-skyrim-and-fallout4/2016/10/04/221 PS4 mods are back. Before you get your hopes up though, one important statement in there needs to be highlighted: What does this mean? It means PS4 mods that are not fully functional with just a single ESP file are out. "External assets" for Skyrim and Fallout 4 are stored in a separate archive file. This means no custom meshes, textures, music, audio, voiced dialogue, or scripts. It's the scripts that are going to place the biggest restriction on what can be done. What it means in practice is basically that something like USLEEP/UFO4P cannot be offered for PS4 users because they both rely on external assets to be functional. Not much point in a patch if it can't even be allowed to edit and compile updated/new scripts. That said, ESP-only mods are better than nothing at all and perhaps down the road Bethesda will be able to convince Sony to loose their sphincters a bit more.

As far as I can tell, I'm the only person having this problem. When you enter the mind of Kellogg during the "Dangerous Minds" mission, everything seems fine. Until I got to the Institute memory. I finished the memory and tried to continue, but at the 2nd left turn after the institute memory, there is a rather small floating black wall that blocks the path, meaning you cant continue and the game is incompleteable. You can't jump it, you can't reload your save to fix it, forcing a restart of the entire console won't fix the bug, even deleting the game and re-installing did nothing. I've lost sleep and I have no other choice but to post here. I've tried sending this to the. UFO4P Bugtracker, but didn't even receive a response. This'll be the 2nd game breaking bug I've found. The only mod I have is The UFO4P so no other mods are causing this issue. Here is a YouTube video for good measure. This is about all the info I could tell. Hopefully someone sees this and addresses the problem.

Hi. I have been experiencing a bug in fallout 4: In the blind betrayal mission, Danse becomes enemies with the brotherhood of steel if you keep him alive, i kept him alive and decided to join the Railroad, meaning I destroyed the Prydwyn and ended the game with that faction. I went back to Listening Post Bravo and wanted him to be my companion, however, when i interacted with him, there was no response! My character would spout: "Excuse me, paladin danse?" and Danse wouldnt reply, I couldnt access the trade menu or engage in a conversation. It would be amazing if you fixed this, as Danse is my favourite companion and it is a damn shame that Bethesda blocked me from engaging with a former companion who is enemies with the Brotherhood because I am enemies with the Brotherhood!! There is no logic! It would really enhance my and others' experience with the game. Thanks

Recently the tab to build furniture (i.e. beds, containers, chairs, etc.) has disappeared from the settlement modifying menu. I disabled all my mods to try and see if that was the problem and the issue was still not resolved. Has anyone else had this problem? I realize how small this predicament is; but, I feel as though it will hinder the enjoyment of the actual game play over time seeing as I will not be able to complete certain quests without it. I would really like to have the issue resolved as soon as possible and I am hoping that your unofficial patch can do it. Any help or information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Ok, so for those of you who were wondering, yes, we're planning to go ahead with doing an Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch. It may be a bit early for this, all depends on how aggressively Bethesda begins patching the game, but we figure it's best to get off the ground sooner rather than later so that we know more or less what to expect once the official tools are released. We will not begin any kind of proper work on the first release of the UFO4P until after the official CK/GECK is available. In addition, we probably won't be taking on any mesh or texture fixes until community tools have progressed far enough to handle these properly. Many of them are already making good progress, but they need to be in solid working order before anyone with 3D and/or texturing skills can really do effective fix work. There is little point in trying to fix much of anything until then. For now, just play, and enjoy the game like we are. There's no rush. Post any bug reports you have in our collection thread. This was basically to let folks know that we're on board for this. If you run into a quest bug, script bug, etc, please also report those here: http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1544248-bug-report-index-pc/- Bethesda can't attempt to fix what we don't report, and it's best for everyone if they do. The less we need to deal with when the time comes, the better.

So, it seems that Fallout 4 uses Material Swap forms to change the material, and thus the texture, of a static. They have done this with the flags you can place in your base. All those flags uses FlagWallMinutemen01.nif as model, and Material Swap to change the diffuse, normal, and specular. The nif itself only references the Minutemen texture and material. Does anyone have an idea of how one would go about editing those materials? I've tried Hex Editing, but it doesn't seem to work. For example, I'm working on a Flag mod that doesn't replace the vanilla flags, but adds all sorts of "Old World" flags (download). The missing piece is just getting the materials to function as I want.

Here are a few modifications that caught my attention. And they are not done by using TESVSnip aka FalloutSnip.
