After 80 hours of playing vanilla Fallout 4, I’ve decided that it’s time for mods. Here’s how you can join me.
Before we get started with the instructions, I want to point out that modding Fallout 4 is simple, but it will get easier as time goes on. Publisher Bethesda has yet to release its official modding tools for its latest open-world hit. We should get that next year along with Steam Workshop support. Steam Workshop is how Valve enables developers and the community to instantly plug add-ons into games natively through Steam. This enables players to click the “subscribe” button on a workshop page in Steam to instantly add mods. But even when that happens for Fallout 4, the process I’m about to go over should always work.
Aug 07, 2018 Just a question to Mod Authors. Ive Managed to figure out the BSConnectPoint Nodes in Nifskope and Fallout 4. In doing so managed to save an armor slot (Usually Each Breast would take up one) The Armor is actually an Null/reference armor (Parent) And the Milk Emitters are actually Mods for that a. Usage: Player builds a CAMP close to Wayward. That CAMP layout can then be saved onto a CAMP slot. Player then decides to build a camp close to Foundation. This camp is saved onto another slot. The player now has Two pre-built camps and can freely choose which one to activate without having to rebuild either of the camps.
Let’s get to it:
Finding and downloading mods
Above: Nexus Mods is a great resource.
Extracting and installing mods
Editing the .ini file
Now, all you have to do is boot up the game and enjoy. Let us know if you have any issues.

Waiting is a little different than in past games where you could select the method via a button press. Now to wait, you must find a piece of furniture that you do NOT own and sit, which will allow you to initiate a wait period.
