**** Official Fallout 4 Thread ****

Difference is minimal @ 4K its hard to even notice although the game seems more optimised now it does not have to compress textures.

Without a side by side its not obvious at all there is any noticeable difference though!

Someone else not me took some screenshots with the new textures.

Well interestingly ive gotten in and booted it up and im using about 3gb VRAM, however im going to do a fresh install now whilst i sleep as i have some mod files left over and some are still active and could be ahead of the HRTP in load order but i dont have nexus anymore as i did fresh windows.

Cheers for update, can you let me know if you notice much difference in quality at your 1920 x 1080, thx
 
Be interested to know if a GTX1080 is actually a requirement for the optimal playing experience.

I would be rather disappointed if my GTX1070 laptop struggles with this. Just about to play through FA4 and all expansions for the first time.
 
So interestingly with a fresh install i am up to 6.7 gb vram usage in diamond city. Though vsync is on @60fps the 1080 is only being used about 40% so i would say that the vram requirement is about right, but the power of the card is a bit way ott.

Can see a difference with textures for sure but that comes from someone who always mods these games to replace the textures asap as vanilla are always so ugly.

If it's worth 60gb hdd... im not sure id say my 30gb of old mods looked a lot better.

Thx for update, yeh im sure my 780ti would be ok, just let down by the 3GB vram, will wait until i get a new gpu.
 
Slight change of subject, now finished Far Harbor and well impressed. Certainly better than the Automatron which second time around I completed in around 3 hours net.

Having fairly high charisma I was able to "solve" the main quest and keep all the main island factions alive. I was even able to convince the COA leader to leave, rather than murdering him and dumping the body down a hole. In line with my current Railroad playthrough. Next time I'll go in as a BoS executioner and take down both DiMA and the nukies.

The campaign is a good way of climbing up a few levels though it has had the unfortunate side effect that back in the Commonwealth on the main campaign, I'm now getting Super Mutant Warlords or Primus' spawned on routine missions, rather than lower level creatures. More XP though, I guess and a Savant x 5 proc on a Primus is something like 550XP - more than some missions!

I can hardly tell any difference from those shots. Sure, it never is easy from screenshots but considering the size of them, I expected more.

You can see a difference in the fullsize pics but as this one shows it's more buildings stuff, The exo suits don't look any different to me, nothing worth mentioning at least.

In this one he seems to have gotten them labelled the wrong way around (must have forgotten his glasses)

Overall quite a let down for a 50+ gb texture pack, I've got a texture compression program I use with Stalker mods but it was originally for Skyrim & FO3 so I imagine it'd work with FO4 and shrink it's textures down by 15 to 20 gb's for virtually no visual hit. Hey! At least the texture pack was free.
 
Mods...what am I doing wrong. I have 10 installed, all using NMM, made the necessary changes to the Fallout4Pref.ini and Fallout4Custom.ini and archive invalidation etc, but only some of the mods work... Any of the modding geniuses care to help me?

The ones that are confusing me, in terms of why they dont work, are More Where That Came From (for me, I still only hear the same 'standard' songs, get Travis giving intros/outros for songs that dont play, and will hear news/Institute statement/intros 6-8 times before each track plays), and the DEF_UI mod which doesn't work at all, got both the HUD and UI installed but they don't do anything.

I modded the hell out of FO3 and NV and never had an issue, so I know nothing about troubleshooting.

Dunno about ur song one but DEF_UI should work fine i'm using it
Just make sure u installed the big package first and then any patch's you might need if using non-standard Res.

Another thing to check is if the mod is turned on and that is easy in NMM go to the plugins tag at the top and make sure there ticked so there on and any dlc or packages that should be ticked.

i'm on 144 mods atm :)
