    Wait a year for the modding community to finish it.

    When I first played Fallout 4 years ago, it ran at 20fps in some parts of the map and on medium.

    Playing it again now, modded to the max, ultra, higher res textures, 60fps everywhere.

    Same pc.

      That’s the plan. I haven’t actually properly played F4 yet either lol (tried years ago but dropped due to performance issues). Probably will do it soon after spending a month modding it.

        Did that on skyrim.

        Don’t know how much free time you have, but I couldn’t be bothered anymore for FO4 on nexus. I just downloaded one of the bigger/better collections and ignored/deactivated the creepier/boobier mods.

        Already more than enough of a hassle to get that working, with vortex sometimes not installing stuff properly, pre-cleaning files, etc.

          I just enjoy that stuff lol. I only stopped my last Skyrim playthrough because I kept updating my mods and adding new ones and at the one point it just broke all of my saves. I took it as a sign to move on to other games.

            Same, but realistically once you start heading towards the 500 mods range, it’s almost impossible to get it working reliably.

            At one point I had 200+ mods on skyrim, and the mod cycles and before/after conflicts on vortex looked like mandelas. I did enjoy ‘completing’ the vortex mod manager game. That’s when it’s 3AM, you’re fed up, you give up trying to figure what’s wrong, and just click randomly and uninstall/reinstall mods until vortex shuts up, and it somehow just works. Bit like winning the lottery.
