[H]ard|OCP has put together a little guide on improving your Fallout 4 experience with the help of modders and the great people at Nexus Mods. They describe the basics on how to install mods as there are steps you need to follow to ensure your mods successfully apply, whether installed manually or with the Nexus Mod Manager tool. They explore several mods than greatly increase the size of textures, making them much better looking as well as adding weather and storms to the mix. As long as you meet the graphics memory requirements which they mention you should not see much performance degradation when using these mods. Soon Fallout 4 may be meeting or surpassing Skyrim's impressive mod community.
Of course immediately after [H] covered this topic Bethesda released a new patch which enables HBAO+ for all GPUs and extra debris effects specifically for NVIDIA GPUs.
"Fallout 4 has been out for several months and it is possible that you might find the image quality lacking overall. We take some of the most popular and highly downloaded image quality mods and find out how we can improve the environment in Fallout 4. We modify for visual improvements to give you more immersive gameplay."

That’s fantastic! Modding can greatly enhance the Fallout 4 experience with improved visuals and weather effects, potentially making it as impressive as Skyrim’s mod community.
The list should always start
The list should always start like this.
Step 1. Remove GameWorks
Website reviewers guide.
Step 1. Evaluate Game+Mods on a 6GB card. Who cares if the majority of people don’t own one.
Step 2. Conclude with the assumption every thing will be fine on a 4GB GPU system and lower because your 6GB High-end card didn’t have any issues.
Step 3. Buried deep in the article make mention that you never bothered testing performance.
Step 4. Wait for the “CLICK$$$”
“adding weather and and
“adding weather and and storms to the mix.”
Mynd you, and storms Kan be pretti nasti.
I’m wondering if they’ll give
I’m wondering if they’ll give the same help to the people … :yawn:
I loved modding the other ES
I loved modding the other ES and Fallout games but im afraid so many graphic mods this time are going to crush the Frame Rate on tihs game because of thier horrible Shadow distance issues, you go above medium and Titan X / I7 machines are losing 20-40 fps in the CITY or High locations due to thier horrible shadow system. if you turn it down it looks like shit everwhere :*(
Since when is HBAO+
Since when is HBAO+ specifically for nVidia GPUs?
This is part of GameWorks but is proven to be reasonably OK performance-wise on both nVidia and AMD GPUs and actually does look just a little bit better. I would not use it for comparative testing but using it when actually playing is fine even with AMD GPU.
Huh?
Huh?
