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

Playing with a ROG Swift and 980Ti... What do I need to do to get rid of the awful judder when panning around?

The game looks at least 5 years old, but I'm hoping the game play can make up for it but the judder is doing my head in.
 
Whenever I try and fast-travel back to my base (Red Rocket garage) the game crashes to the desktop. I can fast travel to Sanctuary but when I get to the river walking towards the garage, the game crashes to the desktop anyway... Any ideas? :(

Verified game cache, it re-acquired two files, same issue... Running latest drivers, and never encountered this issue before after 16 hours of game-play...

e1; C2D when trying to go to Concord too, but I can go to Sanctuary...

e2; I think it might be because of some quest items I have in my inventory, I completed the quest, but then I picked the items back up again (they are useless, weightless items) and the game wont let me drop them because they are quest items (even though I've completed the quest...)

Tried collision off, got a few paces further. Probably a co-incidence.

Trying the beta version of the game... (what a good idea lol... Game is unstable, lets try a beta build instead!) :p

e3; beta build didn't work, same issue. Got a few paces further again, coincidental...

e4; Tried borderless windowed as suggested somewhere else, same issue.

e5; Loaded from a old save, meaning I will have lost about 2 hours game-play and inevitably forgotten where I need to re-explore etc. Could be a corrupted save, for no apparent reason? Found a couple of other guys online reporting the same issue though, but no resolution.

Any help appreciated, if none comes, I shall just leave the game alone until tomorrow evening and re-play the bits which got missed out...

Anyone have problems with beds in settlements? I always have more beds than settlers that are all accessible and under cover and yet everyone still complains about a lack of beds. It's worse at Sanctuary, everyone just stands around in the street rather than going to bed.

Accessible to you doesn't mean accessible to settlers, who are laughably incompetent at moving. For example, if the floor of a building containing beds is more than a few inches above the ground then those beds may well be inaccessible to your settlers. If there is any difference in height between ground and any flooring anywhere on the way to the beds, see if the smallest stairs (structures/wood/stairs) will snap to it.

After I built a new shopping centre and pub in Sanctuary (6 shops, lounge area with tables, comfy chairs and sofas, pool table with cues and balls, jukebox) several of the settlers spent an entire day trying to walk through a wall to get into it, ignoring the two entrances a few yards around the corner. Their pathfinding is...interesting.
 
Story is good I'm about 20 hours in level 19 but my god this game is horrendously optimised, take note Beth we are due a new engine with the next one

Just completed the first side quest so very early on in the game but I've liked what I've seen so far.

Wasn't expecting a Deathclaw so soon:eek:

Yes that was a surprise ended up going hand to hand to finish the job. (Good job not playing DiD though!).

Been enjoying myself so far, having got the crafting tutorial out the way started to explore out beyond Sanctuary and Concord a little bit. Looking for potential locations to start my own settlement, already cleared out a few Raider camps and just taken care of
Ack Ack's travelling arrangements in his basement
so some potential there, once I have enough bits to craft a new workbench and lug it up there.

No major bugs or issues as yet, performance about what I would expect on my rig (spec in sig), just one occasion of NPC I needed to speak with up on a roof but sleeping in one of my luxury beds fixed that.

Trading seems a bit odd as you can exchange goods with a fair number of NPC's but don't seem to get caps for it.

Ammo is in quite short supply and no way I can see of using the crafting tables to break down or create your own. Melee might have to become more of a choice especially when dealing with low level enemies, to conserve bullets.

Haven't got into power armour yet, hunting down energy cells seems more trouble than it's worth. Given we can craft a power generator out of a few junkyard items, there should have been an option to recharge these (unless there is and I haven't found it yet).

So far playing a virtuous approach as everyone so far (other than Raiders) seems helpful and more use alive than dead but at some point a Machiavellian playthrough will be in order.

5 stars from me, so far.

You cannot craft ammo in the vanilla game, there is a mod to allow it though.

I would recommend putting points into the Scrounger perk under the luck perk tree, you'll have more ammo than needed (I put 2 into it, and have well over 1000 of most my ammo types - apart from plasma cartridges and shotgun shells). Once you get to a certain point where you have a selection of 'go to' guns, you can use the ammo you don't normally use, in my case 5mm, 5.56mm and .38 for trading purposes.

As for fusion cores, again, once you start getting further into it you will aquire quite a lot. I believe there are numerous reactors were the fusion cores respawn. Sentry bots also have 2 on them when you kill them.

I only use mine for highly radiated places with a lot of tougher enemies.
 
Yup, gutted. Was at the coastline (by the fish place) and FPS was dropping to low 40s, even mid to high 30s even with the 980Ti. I did have the game completely maxed out, so I lowered God Rays. Now I have that ugly blurred pixelation around people and objects though. Any way to fix that?

Made the mistake of wandering into a robotic factory/musuem place with basic armour and no Power Armour. Won't be doing that again.

Just a note - I don't think you can (at the moment) build new work benches without a mod. If you want to settle somewhere, you need to find a place with a workbench and clear it out. A good way to find a few quickly is to do the quests for
Preston in sanctuary, excluding the 'castle' one until you're feeling STRONK. He likes to send you out to help new settlements, and they will usually let you build there once you've helped them.

Try raising your good rays but this time dropping your Shadows to Medium and Shadow Distance to medium, even low. It was found to be mainly the Shadow Distance that is causing the tank in the frame rates...

Yes God Rays is a problem but it's not as bad as Shadow Distance

Trying to fix the getting stuck after a terminal issue - Scouring this thread to fix is proving hard due to the length...

The terminals all worked up until I got to the garage place which is when the issue started.

Hardware:

2x 780Ti in SLi
Asus Rog Swift Running 2560 x 1440 @ 144Hz (G-SYNC)

I have downloaded the latest drivers released yesterday.

I have my FOV set to 110 (the default is awful!!).

I tried turning off V-Sync in the application settings for FO4 in the Nvidia control panel and that didn't work. I am trying to establish how to get rid of this without making the rest of the gfx look rubbish. To say its frustrating would be an understatement as it makes the game unplayable :(

I've found that changing v-sync setting in the nvidia control panel to adaptive (half refresh) eliminates the terminal bug.

OK will do. I think I lowered them too. I might give the dynamic shadow mod a go again. I'm gutted, I honestly thought that the 980Ti wouldn't have any bother with it at all...
 
Feel like I'm not far off the end now as no side quests left to do minus repeatables and at the point where you
need to build the machine to get into the institute.

Like TW3 I'll be sad once I've finished it.
 
I'm about 12 hours in, playing it totally different to the way I usually play these type of games which is heaviest armour available and hit everything with the biggest melee weapon I can find. So far I am really enjoying both the game and the change of style. I would even go as far as to say that I am enjoying it more than the witcher 3.

And the dog looks just like my dog, I'm ignoring all the possible companions and roaming the wilderness with him
