Documentation + Credits - PC, XB1 Documentation + Credits - PS4 UFO4P Discussion Forum on AFK Mods This mod is an effort to fix the vast amount of bugs currently existing in Fallout 4. If you're experiencing a bug with Fallout 4, please report the bug to us in as much detail as possible on the UFO4P bugtracker. Please use search to ensure that you aren't submitting something that is already there. Please also confirm that the bug you are reporting happens with no mods other than the unofficial patches installed. A lot of Fallout 4 bugs are actually the result of other mods doing things they're not supposed to. Thank you and we hope you have a better Fallout 4 experience! If your bugs is of the more important variety, such as a broken quest, broken settlement mechanics, broken perks, etc, you should also submit the report of your issue to Bethesda as well. Use their feedback form to do so and provide them as much detail as you would us. We would all prefer the bigger things to be fixed by them, right? (Note that all fixes are retroactive unless otherwise noted) Frequently Asked Questions - BUGS Frequently Asked Questions - About the Project Mods Made Obsolete by the UFO4P UFO4P Fixes A spliced line for the male player voice that should not have been edited has been removed. There is no way to resolve the difference between it and the female player voice and thus should have been left alone. (Bug #34905) DLC01FortHagenSatelliteArrayQuest should not have been shut down when Headhunting [DLC01MQ04] completes because that control quest is managing unique items by way of the aliases - despite this being a poor way to accomplish that. (Bug #34763) Changes to Barnacle radiation hazards have been reverted as they apparently cause the radiation effect to stick permanently. Reverts 22216. (Bug #34044) Custom items were still not appearing as expected. As a result, the major overhaul of how custom items are spawned and potentially equipped on an NPC has been mostly reversed. The specific cases where an NPC needs to either add or equip a spawned item have been given delay timers to handle this now. This fix is only partially retroactive. Loose spawned items like The Gainer should appear where they belong, but items spawned to go into an NPC's inventory or a container cannot be addressed retroactively. This mostly reverts changes made in Bug #28982 and completely reverts changed made in Bug #30815. (Bug #34472) [Partially NR] Changes made for plasma projectiles to penetrate geometry apparently don't work so they have been removed. (Bug #34002) WorkshopParentScript: Beds could fail to be unassigned under certain conditions. The script function responsible for this has been corrected. (Bug #34401) Actor Fixes Andre Michaud was likely to show up as dead upon reaching Far Harbor. This was due to him having been set to have -84 Health in his Base Actor Value data. Since he only inherits 40 Health from his race data, he'd be in the negative. Nothing regarding how he's handled by the game requires that he have no Health, so the -84 penalty has been removed. This will obviously not revive him if he died in your game already. So long as you have yet to reach Far Harbor, he should be as alive as his circumstances dictate. (Bug #33107) [NR] Leveled Molerats do not pick a proper variety for grouped encounters due to missing flags on the leveled list. [LCharMolerat] (Bug #35052) Bill Sutton and Cedric Hopton should not be part of the WarwickHostile by default as this interferes with certain options in the quests they're involved in. (Bug #35088) Animation Fixes Injured female players will not behave as though they are crippled if their weapon is sheathed/holstered. [added: 07003F99:InjuredFemaleSubGraphData] (Bug #25326) Item Fixes Nuka Quantum Grenades don't have the correct VATS damage or effect settings for what they are. (Bug #31622) Bowler hats should no longer get stuck on Codsworth or Curie. [AAHandyMobsterHat] (Bug #20345) The formula for building the Relay Dish for the teleporter was missing a requirement for a Sensor Module despite all other notes, dialogue, and quest objectives saying you need one to build it. [workshop_co_MQ206RelayDish] (Bug #22213) Psychotats lack a crafting recipe at the Chemistry Station. (Bug #35023) The De-Capitalist power armor helmet had no repair recipe for the Power Armor Station. (Bug #35022) Dog Armor and Heavy Dog Armor turn invisible for hostile dogs when they attack. They both had an invalid addon index value. [ClothesDog_ArmorMedium, ClothesDog_ArmorHeavy] (Bug #35024) .308 Rounds and 5mm Rounds (non-playable version) are using the wrong ammo casing models. [Ammo308Caliber, CompanionAmmo308Caliber, Ammo5mm_NonPlayable] (Bug #35025) "Suitcase" [Loot_Chargen_Suitcase_Clothes] erroneously contains the chargen version of the Women's Casual Outfit instead of the normal prewar version of the outfit. (Bug #35027) The Lead Plating mod has unusually harsh crafting requirements because the formulas for it were copypasta from the Rad Scrubbers OMOD. [co_PA_Raider_Material_Rad, co_PA_T45_Material_Rad, co_PA_T51_Material_Rad, co_PA_T60_Material_Rad, co_PA_X01_Material_Rad, ccBGSFO4044_co_Hellfire_Material_Rad, ccBGSFO4115_co_PA_X02_Material_Rad, ccFSVFO4007_co_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_Rad] (Bug #35028) .44 Pistols, Baseball Bats and Double-Barrel Shotguns do not have a chance to spawn as legendary versions in loot. [LL_44_Pistol, LL_BaseballBat, LL_DoubleBarrelShotgun] (Bug #35030) Shank's outfit is mistakenly using an unplayable version of the Worn Fedora. [DLC04ShankOutfit] (Bug #35031) Inactive Bear Traps and Bleeding Bear Traps are erroneously set up to explode when hit. These are not traps which utilize explosive devices. [DLC03_ThrowingBearTrapWeapon, DLC03_ThrowingBearTrapWeaponBleeding] (Bug #35032) Boards incorrectly have a 1-Handed keyword attached even though they are 2-Handed weapons. [Board] (Bug #35033) Disciples Blade is missing the added UFO4P keyword for knife weapons. This prevents it from being displayed on a weapon rack. (Bug #35035) The Flare Gun is missing the WeaponTypePistol keyword. This prevents it from being displayed on a weapon rack and also blocks it from benefiting from the Gunslinger perk. [FlareGun] (Bug #35036) Suggs' vendor chest incorrectly contains an entry for selling Power Armor Frames that should only be available in Goodneighbor. (Bug #35041) The pre-war floor safe used in Fringe Cove Docks mistakenly used a bobby pin box directly instead of using the leveled list entry for bobby pins. [DLC03MQ06_Prewar_Safe_Floor] (Bug #35042) De-Capitalist Unfinished Helmet is missing screen attachment points and object template data. [ccFSVFO4007_DecapitalistHelmet_NonPA] (Bug #35043) De-Capitalist Helmet is using the wrong materials keyword, and is missing it's proper Power Armor lining keyword. This results in several OMODs which can't be applied properly as well as messing up the default red paint modifications. [ccFSVFO4007_Decapitalist_PAHelm, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_APSunRegen, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_Cold, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_Energy, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_Explosives, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_Rad, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_Titanium, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_ColorRed, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_ColorBlack, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_ColorBlue, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_ColorGreen, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_ColorOrange, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_ColorPurple, ccFSVFO4007_PA_DeCapitalist_Material_ColorYellow, Added: UFO4P_ccFSVFO4007_co_PA_DeCapitalist_Helmet_Color_Red] (Bug #35044) De-Capitalist Helmet mods have a number of incorrect text entries as well as some missing keywords. (Bug #35046) Bottlecap Mines and Piggybank Mines have incorrect explosion settings in their destruction data. (Bug #35034) Hodges' outfit has conflicting entries which cannot be used together. [ccBGSFO4115_ResidentHodgesOutfit] (Bug #35089) The Nail Gun uses the wrong data for its recon scope since the game has no x6 option for recon scopes. [ccSBJFO4004_mod_Nailgun_Scope_ScopeRecon, Added: UFO4P_ZM_Recon_Scope_x6] (Bug #35087) Power Armor standard lining mods show up in the item inspections when they shouldn't. They had names attached that shouldn't be there. (Bug #35086) Blood Bug death items are missing an entry for Blood Bug Meat, as well as having a spurious change on the Max Count to 2 when no other leveled list appears to change that field at all. [LLD_Bloodbug] (Bug #35082) Several Power Armor mods have Kinetic Servos hooked up to their Kinetic Dynamo mods. This causes issues if the armor is later modified to have a pair of servos AND the dynamo. (Bug #35081) Mines are only supposed to show up in vendor inventories 75% of the time instead of 100%. [LLI_Mine_Vendor_75] (Bug #35078) The simple variant for Tire Irons is using the wrong filtering keyword. [LL_TireIron_Simple] (Bug #35077) Psycho Jet should fortify AP by 40 points as its description claims. [PsychoJet] (Bug #35074) Yellow Tesla Cannon projectiles are using the incorrect explosion effect. [ccBGSFO4046_TeslaCannonYellow] (Bug #35070) Opal's vendor chest does not respawn, which will eventually result in her selling nothing. [DNFinancial_OpalVendorChest] (Bug #35069) The Nuka-World Radio Amplifier does not have any pick-up or put-down sounds assigned. [DLC04workshop_co_RadioRaiderAmplifier] (Bug #35068) Several ammo types lacking their pickup sounds. [AmmoPlasmaCartridge, AmmoFusionCell, DLC04_Ammo_AcidSoaker, ccSBJFO4004_AmmoNailgun] (Bug #35062) 3 ammo types missing the ObjectTypeAmmo keyword. [AmmoGammaCell, AmmoAlienBlaster, AmmoFlareGun] (Bug #35063) Colonel's Uniform does not have the ma_armor_lining keyword and its object templates are missing the mod_armor_Lining_Null modification. [ccOTMFO4001_ClothesColonelUniform] (Bug #35064) RobCo Fun #5 is using the wrong transform preview for magazines. [PerkMagRobcoFun05] (Bug #35066) T-51 Torso Lining B is missing the requirement for 6 aluminum like all the other T-51 B parts require. [co_PA_T51_Torso_Lining_B] (Bug #35067) Several projectiles have incorrect "Penetrates Geometry" settings. [BroadsiderProjectile, ccSBJFO4003_FatManPiggyBankBombProjectile, DLC04_ThirstZapper_Cherry_Projectile, ccBGSFO4046_TeslaCannonProjectile, ccBGSFO4046_TeslaCannonProjectileYellow] (Bug #35071) Several melee weapons which lack basic scrap recipes. [modScrapRecipe_NullMelee_Steel, modScrapRecipe_NullMelee_SteelLarge, WeaponsMeleeList, modScrapRecipe_NullMelee_Wood] (Bug #35072) Several weapons which should be able to ignite fire traps are not actually set up to do so. [TrapExplOnHit] (Bug #35073) Visionary's T-60 Helm and Exemplar's T-60 Torso incorrectly specify models in their names. [CustomItem_DoNotPlaceDirectly_BoSM04_KellsRewardArmorSentinel, CustomItem_DoNotPlaceDirectly_BoSM04_KellsRewardArmorPaladin, CustomItem_DoNotPlaceDirectly_BoSM04_KellsRewardArmorKnight, CustomItem_DoNotPlaceDirectly_BoSM02_KellsRewardArmorSentinel, CustomItem_DoNotPlaceDirectly_BoSM02_KellsRewardArmorPaladin, CustomItem_DoNotPlaceDirectly_BoSM02_KellsRewardArmorKnight] (Bug #35079) Location Fixes Navmeshes at Finch Farm were not properly finalized. 4 cells in Far Harbor complained about the same thing but the edits there were removed because nothing indicates why they'd been edited to begin with. (Bug #34273) Mesh, Material, and Texture Fixes The copper panels material file was incorrectly using the Normal Map instead of the Specular Map for the specular settings. [materials\Architecture\Buildings\CopperPanels01.bgsm] (Bug #34516) T-51 Power Armor clips the player's neck when entering. [meshes\actors\powerarmor\characterassets\mods\PA_T51_Body.nif] (Bug #34966) The Alien Blaster long barrel mod did not display the same glowing tube as the version in the load screen art. [meshes\weapons\alienblaster\Barrel01_1.nif] (Bug #31637) Mirelurk Egg Omelette is missing its normal and specular map textures, resulting in them looking flat and shiny. [textures\SetDressing\FoodAndFoodware\mirelurkomelette_n.dds, textures\SetDressing\FoodAndFoodware\mirelurkomelette_s.dds] (Bug #24805) Facegen data for Dr. Penske and Tina De Luca was corrupted with the NG Update. [meshes\Actors\Character\FaceGenData\FaceGeom\Fallout4.esm\0002A82A.NIF, meshes\Actors\Character\FaceGenData\FaceGeom\Fallout4.esm\0002A825.NIF, textures\actors\Character\FaceCustomization\Fallout4.esm\0002A825_s.dds, textures\actors\Character\FaceCustomization\Fallout4.esm\0002A82A_d.dds, textures\actors\Character\FaceCustomization\Fallout4.esm\0002A82A_msn.dds, textures\actors\Character\FaceCustomization\Fallout4.esm\0002A82A_s.dds, textures\actors\Character\FaceCustomization\Fallout4.esm\0002A825_d.dds, textures\actors\Character\FaceCustomization\Fallout4.esm\0002A825_msn.dds] (Bug #35100) Perk and Stat Fixes Stingwing and Radscorpion poison should no longer restore an incorrect amount of Perception when the debuffs wear off. [StingwingPoisonEffectPlayer, RadscorpionPoisonEffectPlayer, StingwingPoisonEffectNPC] (Bug #32934) Irradiated Food should not be considered as chems because it will erroneously trigger the Chemist perk. [DamageRadiationChem] (Bug #21292) The hidden Pip-Boy perk for the Tesla Cannon DLC is not actually marked to be hidden in the UI and results in a blank entry displayed in the perks list. [ccBGSFO4046_GunnerPipboyPerk] (Bug #35039) Kneecapper and Striker should no longer cause limb damage if the player has Adamantium Skeleton level 3. [LegendaryOnHitCrippleScript] (Bug #32961) Robotics Expert 2 has an undocumented damage bonus that's not mentioned in its description. (Bug #35091) Papyrus Fixes Various scripts with removed properties have been addressed for the Tesla Cannon DLC. [ccBGSFO4046_GunnerPipboyPerk, ccBGSFO4046_BestOfThree] (Bug #34946) RadioFailsafeScript: Previous UFO4P fix did not account for the fact that on a new game the scenes being handled here may not yet have their quests running when DNMasterQuest was first started. Instead of immediately trying to populate the array, it will instead start a short 2 minute timer to allow the script's normal handling loop to take over properly. (Bug #32548) Hardcore:HC_ManagerScript: Fixed an issue with eating corpses bringing about Ravenous Hunger too soon due to a timer getting reset that shouldn't be. (Bug #34415) Hardcore:HC_ManagerScript, MS19DiseaseScript: Incorporated the VATS Freeze Fix by JacobBruce. (Bug #28263) DefaultEnableDisableTrigScript: Added sanity check for cases where this script is applied to an object that has no disable/enable properties set. (Bug #25572) Quest and Dialogue Fixes The random encounter that generates people killed by Pickman should only do so if Pickman is alive. [RESceneCC_DN101] (Bug #34935) Taking Point [MinRecruit06] cannot be obtained if Red Rocket Truck Stop has not been unlocked by the player. The quest has no safeguard against choosing a location without a Boss NPC. (Bug #34855) Best of Three [ccBGSFO4046_BestOfThree] never clears its final objective when shutting down. (Bug #34943) To the Mattresses [RRR08] could select Quincy Quarries (later Vault 88 exterior) as a target but the NPCs would often be dead on arrival making the quest impossible to complete since the dead boss still holds the quest target. Quincy Quarries will no longer be selectable. (Bug #32596) Cambridge Polymer Labs [DN015] should no longer incorrectly mark the objectives as failed if Molly pays out your reward. Also, if you actually fail the quest, it will now properly fail all the objectives for it. (Bug #24594) The unmarked safety quest at General Atomics Factory should no longer play audio from the quest if you're no longer in the cell but left before completing it. [DN050TargetScript, DN050SafetyTriggerScript, DN050BabyTrigger, DN050BabyContainerScript, DN050BabyBottleScript] (Bug #20494) The reward for When Pigs Fly [ccSBJFO4003_Quest, Suggs' Flakker] is set up with a bad property which attaches a receiver that uses a cut ammo type which cannot be obtained by the player. It will now point to a closely matching receiver type that has obtainable ammo. (Bug #35038) [NR] Stage 40 of the Vault 118 clue tracking system [DLC03_V118_ClueTracker] attempts to enable a paint can reference that the game had set to a random fern in an unrelated location. Since the actual target object doesn't exist, this call is now disabled and the property for it cleared to stop it from reporting errors in the script log. (Bug #22133) Settlement and Workshop Fixes One of the hidden resource containers in Tenpines Bluff was not properly linked from the workshop object which would result in anything being added to that container failing to count toward settlement happiness like it should. This will be corrected via the retro script for the 2.1.8 update because directly editing the workshop object's linked lists is impossible due to an engine bug. (Bug #32848) Clothing Emporiums have an incorrect happiness bonus that is the same as the previous tier. This is inconsistent with how every other happiness generating store is set. [WorkshopStoreClothing03, WorkshopStoreClothing03Counter] (Bug #35040) Terminal Fixes vault111CryoRoomSubTerminal02: The list of occupants for the Vault 111 cryo pods is incorrect. (Bug #35090) Placement/Layout/Ownership and Other World Fixes 000461C2, 000461C5, 000461C6, 000461CA, 000461DB: Power pole and attached splines sitting too far above the ground. (Bug #34886) 001be760: Duplicate chair moved. (Bug #34884) 001E479D: Frag Mine mistakenly set as owned by raiders. (Bug #34882) FE00600F, FE00687C, FE00687F, FE006011, FE006012, FE006013, FE006014: Burning ash piles that should be disabled until the appropriate stage in Best of Three [ccBGSFO4046_BestOfThree]. Some of them were also floating above the ground. (Bug #34944) 002321E3: Floating stew pot. (Bug #34575) 001B59C9, 001B59D0: Floating picture frame and teddy bear. (Bug #34560) 000346FE, 000346FF, 000394BF, 000394C0, 000346D6, 00034700, 000394BC, 00034A20, 000346BC, 000346BD, 000346C0, 000346C4, 000346D9, 000346D0, 00034A07, 00034A09, 00034A0B, 000346C9, 000346CB: Badly placed wire splines in Concord. (Bug #34544) 000DE7B2: Door that doesn't fit properly in its frame. (Bug #34466) 001BE40B: Dora's drinking bowl in Covenant should not be owned by the cat or it will attack the player. It also needs the disable havok script or the cat could be drinking from nothing. (Bug #32857) 03008A19, 03008A1A: Cat markers that need to be disabled during the Last Plank attack sequence. (Bug #32734) 07000E6E: The above cat drinking marker had no bowl to go with it. (Bug #32734) 0700D57B, 0700D57C, 0700D57D, 0700D57E, 0700D57F, 0700D580, 0700D581, 0700D582: Ceiling arch pieces added to plug a major omission at the east entrance to Nuka-Town. (Bug #29847) 001C5EC6: Port-A-Diner hatch ownership changed to prevent player from getting a bounty for accepting the reward from it. (Bug #33110) 001A45ED: Fire barrel embedded into the floor. Note that the fire itself cannot have its position fixed due to being part of the barrel mesh. (Bug #32969) 000C7372, 001B8FD2, 001B8FD3, 001B8FD4, 000C7370, 000C7371: Hanging raider bodies near DMPrimeBridge that were duplicated on top of each other. Separated them out, and then adjusted things so that they're less likely to clip through the wooden walls. (Bug #32764) 0304FBA4, 0304FBA5, 0304FBA6, 0304FBA7: Notes in Last Plank that should not be respawned. (Bug #32524) 000F1A90, 000F1A8F: Ken & Standish at Jamaica Plain added the disable havok script to prevent the corpses from being tossed about by heavy arms fire. (Bug #31544) 00240b09: Chair rotated to keep the player from clipping through a wall when getting up. (Bug #29316) 001F7A77: Disabled a floating elevator button that isn't used by anything. (Bug #35011) 0019D6C1: Added Havok script to the large baby bottle in General Atomics Factory to prevent it from getting blown through the walls by robot explosions. (Bug #32890) 000FD6BF, 000FD5BF, 000FD5CA, 000FD5CE, 000FD5CF, 000FD6AB, 000FD6C0, 001652AE, 001652B0, 001652B1, 001652B2: Items at Madden's in General Atomics Galleria owned by the wrong faction which would cause the player to incur a bounty once the quest there is completed. (Bug #32782) Text Fixes InstituteTunnel01: "Public Works Maintenence Area" -> "Public Works Maintenance Area" (Bug #34540) holdupquest, HoldupStartScene [000F75E4]: "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't Shoot!" -> "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't shoot!" (Bug #34417) MQ201 [0019ABA3]: "it is" -> "they are" - Subtitle doesn't match audio but cannot be properly fixed so changed text to be less offensive as people aren't an "it". (Bug #25510) DLC04_Armor_Pack_Heavy_LegRight: "Pack Right Bone Leg" -> "Pack Bone Right Leg" (Bug #35026) ccBGSFO4046_BestOfThree, Objective 6: Period at the end of the text removed.

A few days ago, I started receiving this error whenever I try to launch the Fallout 4 version of Wrye Bash. I will also post it on the Discord server. The version of WB I am using is 312.1. Wrye Bash encountered an error. Please post the information below to the official thread at https://afkmods.com/index.php?/topic/4966-wrye-bash-all-games or to the Wrye Bash Discord at https://discord.gg/NwWvAFR Traceback (most recent call last): File "bash\bash.py", line 425, in main File "bash\bash.py", line 517, in _main File "bash\basher\links_init.py", line 143, in InitStatusBar File "bash\env\windows.py", line 1120, in init_app_links AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'exists' I also just tried to launch the game and it froze. So I re-validated the game files on Steam and 5 files will be re-acquired. Maybe I have more than one problem going on right now.

Hello everyone, this is my first post on this site so I hope posting this question here is fine. So I’ve been looking into a very specific bug in the game which seems to have been a thing since the very release of the game up until now. It occurs without mods as well as with various versions of the Unofficial Patch. I found plenty of interesting examples and it looks like it happens on PC as well as on all consoles. The bug is even mentioned on some wikis, but there has been nobody who actually explained why it happens or how it can be triggered. So far, I’ve found examples for four variations of it: You travel to a settlement (and stay there for a while) and a random object appears next to a crop. This only seems to happen if the crop is assigned. Advancing a quest accidentally spawns an item intended to be placed in a specific container at a random crop in a random farm instead. You’re on a farm already and move or plant a crop and a random object spawns right when the crop is placed down. Shooting a spotlight pops out a random object in addition to the broken light object. I only found one single example for this one and they got it on the exit door of the Corvega Plant interior where you do the first Minutemen Quest. Spawned objects include: Star Cores (most common), Space Suits, specific quest holotapes (from "Long Time Coming" and "The Lost Patrol"), dead bodies of enemies that were defeated earlier on the save, scenery items like walls, Provisioner Robots stripped of all their robot workbench mods, the Beryllium Agitator, legendary items from the CustomItemQuest, DLC03_CustomItemQuest and DLC04_CustomItemQuest quests, tanks and the Yangtze Warhead. Here are some examples of the bug happening from various players: Weird Fallout 4 Crop Placement Bug (Video) (3) Legendary weapon spawned in a tato patch at Abernathy Farm (1) I just found a Star Core in Abernathy Farms Tomato's in the dirt? (1) I don’t know if this is a bug, but I found this Star Core in Graygarden (1) Found it lying on the farming area in The Slog. Just why? (1) I found a star core in my melons does anyone know why (1) Wait… what??? Planting melons and this just appeared in the melon patch. (3) Odd glitch in a tato plant at Abernarthy Farm (1) Weird ass bug in Abernathy farm. (3) County Crossing STAR CORE? (1) I found this, when I planted a carrot (3) Appearing tanks outta nowhere anyone? (1) There's a tank in my farm in Fallout 4 and I need help. (1) I'm so confused, how did a star core spawn in the Abernathy farm melon patch? (1) Crop Spawned Weapon (3) Does anyone else have glitching problems on the Eddie winter quest? (2) Long Time Coming bug (Abernathy farm) (2) Armor found attached to corn at my base (3) Umm what is this glitch? (1) "The Lost Patrol" bug [FIXED] (2) Found Final Judgment just lying on the ground in Sanctuary (1) I just found the Yangtze warhead on top of a melon at Abernathy farm (1) I guess I'm starting Nuka-World earlier than expected (4) It appears like these things are properly moved and not just spawned in. One of the examples mentions Admiral's Friend being removed from the vendor after it appeared in their farm. The most common places the random things appear at seem to be Sanctuary, Abernathy Farm and Oberland Station. Unfortunately, my knowledge of the mechanics of the game aren't deep enough to actually look into this properly on my own. Believe me, I tried. So far, my best theory is that the game somehow attaches the wrong reference to the FurnitureBase. This results in the object being pointed to spawning next to the crop if an assignment is done or the crop is moved. I was able to confirm this by making a mod that sets this value to the Eddie Winter Holotape and indeed, this will make the holotape spawn exactly like the provided examples above. I don't know for sure how this mix-up happens, but I assume it has something to do with extreme lag on list init or installing DLC or mods on existing saves which change the indexes of the checked lists which results in the wrong index being used, switching FormList [15] to HoloTape [15] for example. If this is indeed the culprit, I would suggest updating CreateFurnitureMarkers() in WorkshopObjectScript.psc to add a check if FurnitureBase is Furniture and if it is a FormList instead, to check if it's randomly selected index is furniture. You could also check afterwards if the furniture is flagged as a marker though it looks like this flag is not set for a lot of markers, so we'd have to actually set them for all the crop markers. Any help in looking into this would be very appreciated. To my knowledge, this bug hasn’t been mentioned on this forum yet. If it has been and I’m just bad at searching stuff, just let me know.

Fallout 4 Update 1.10.138 No official changelog was provided. Support for new CC content was provided. Fallout 4 Update 1.10.162 No official changelog was provided. Support for new CC content was provided. Scripts were added to the base game for use in generating "VR Workshops". The number of form IDs allowed in ESL flagged files has been approximately doubled. An accompanying CK update has been issued as well which raises the plugin version number to 1.0 and is necessary in order to take advantage of the expanded ESL space.

For those who have installed the NextGen Update and have mods which "rename" power armor, there is a potential conflict. To quote Douglas Adams "Don't Panic". This is NOT a catastrophic collapse nor the end of the world. The CC content which adds the Hellfire Armor updated the instance naming rule dn_PowerArmor. Any mods which update or change this INMR record will quite probably need an update. Also, any compatibility patches which reconcile mods with each other may also need to be updated. The symptoms of this condition are that the various pieces of Hellfire Armor are named Head, Left Arm, Left Leg, Right Arm, Right Leg and Torso, as appropriate. They should be named Hellfire MKx with the part suffix. IE, Hellfire MK VI Torso, etc.

Updated my 2 mods for the most current versions, safe to update in current playthrough.

Hello expert modders. I am not nor do I aspire to be manually modding games. I need everything having to do with modding be done automatically when possible. I'm liking MO2 and I allow it to auto install mods for the only game I'm playing now, which is Fallout 4. By some miracle, I was sucessful in manually installing F4SE into MO2 and I suppose I must have also learned how to manually install LOOT into MO2 bc I just noticed that MO2 will not auto instal LOOT, so apparently I'll have to re-learn how to do it again. I see that my version of LOOT is 0.16 and I found there's a newer version 18.5. My LOOT 16 is doing it's job but should I go ahead and update it? Is there maybe a link to a utility that would update LOOT for me? If I have to update it manually, will I need to first uninstall my old version 16 first? Please help a dumbass out over here. Thanks!

I'm adding some new signs to my signs and posters mod for an upcoming release, and one of the things I'm adding (prompted by a user request) are some religious signage. The request was for one specific one, but I like to be inclusive, so I was looking to add others. But while I was researching distinctive religious signage in the Boston area, I noticed something that raised a question for me. We know that as of 2077 church buildings still existed, because the ruins of some of them are prominent sites in the game. However, real-world Boston has some extremely distinctive non-Christian/Catholic religious structures, and not a one of them made it into the game. We know from prior games that Christians still exist (ex: St. Monica's Church in Rivet City, Abbey of the Road somewhere west of the Commonwealth), and that the Mormons were still around (Honest Hearts). We know that various cults exist (Children of the Cathedral, Children of Atom, Bright Brotherhood, etc.). There are even some Lovecraftian cults out there. But there's no sign that I've seen of Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, or other non-Christian, real-world religions. So, my question is this. Is the lack of any reference to any non-Christian/Catholic real-world religion simply a matter of omission (they exist, but just weren't featured in the game), or is an aspect of the locked-in-the-1950s culture of FO4, or some other lore-related thing, that the construction of the distinctive buildings for other religions, or perhaps even the overt presence of those religions at all, did not happen? I'm wanting to stay fairly lore-friendly with these signs, and I'm trying to decide between having larger signs with more detail and graphic elements, or small, somewhat inconspicuous signs where they were wanting to self-identify, but not draw undue outside attention. So, if anyone can refer me to something that discusses this from a lore perspective, or can give insight into this, I'd appreciate it. Just a note, I'm not interested in any discussions on the validity of religions, or anything like that. I'm just looking for the lore regarding them in Fallout. Thanks!

A thread to post about your thoughts on Fallout 4. Such as likes/dislikes, the story, game play, favorite factions etc.. Some of mine to start: Far Harbor was my favorite DLC. I like the Nuka World location. But never played as a Raider. (Except for a test when the NW was new.) I have thought for years that the option to be a raider should have been in the base game. Nukaworld's quest should have been for everyone. Like Far harbor's was. My secret to enjoying Fallout 4 is to tell my own story, make some mods and build settlements. Expecially modded settlements filled with synths. :-) I think the two factions that didn't allow your character to become leader were the two most 'thought out' factions quest wise. They both had longer quest lines. (I think when the game was being written , Bethesda thought most players would side with either the BOS or the RR.) The Institute is my favorite faction, but its questline was very ordinary in places. I didn't mind being made Director, but there was nothing to do. Who did 'Wallace' (recruited by the Institute) work for and where did he get his knowledge?. The companions were generally well done. Sometimes I do wonder why there were so many blokes?

Is there a way to require you have something available as a component to build something, but not consume that component in the process? Or alternately to have the crafting create multiple objects at once so that I can add in the crafted item, plus replacements for all of the consumed components? I'm wanting to require paint cans for crafting graffiti, but not use up a full can of paint for each color in each item.
