Right-click it and select EDIT from the menu that pops up. For you, the file might only be called Fallout4Prefs if you have file extensions hidden. Congratulations! You found your Fallout 4 settings folder!Īs another test you can find the file named Fallout4Prefs.ini. Next double-click the folder called Fallout4. Now double-click on the folder called My Games. In the window we just popped open, double-click the folder called Documents. What I want you to do for an exercise, is navigate to your Fallout 4 settings folder. Now you officially have a broad view of files inside of folders. In the menu that pops up, select File Explorer. If you don't know how to navigate files in folders then right-click your windows start menu icon in the system tray (bottom-left corner by default). Proceed without worries, it really isn't that hard to mod without an organizer app. If you are comfortable with moving files around in folders using File Explorer and doing some INI file edits from time to time then you should be OK with manual modding. I found YouTube videos but I'm the kind of person who likes to be able to read at my own pace. I didn't really see a guide quite like this when I was searching for one. I figured a guide like this could be helpful to the community. I wrote this guide partially for myself, in case I bork my game and have to do a full uninstall / reinstall again, I know how to get set back up. They all show up in the same LOAD ORDER page of your MODS menu in-game. You can add Nexus mods to your Bethesda mods. I chose to use Nexus because almost all the mods you can find on the in-game menu are there, and a whole lot more. If you're already familiar with modding then this guide might not be for you. This guide will take you to the Nexus web site and we will be using mods collected from there. This guide is going to be for people who either never modded before, or only used the mods you can get through the in-game menu from Bethesda. Modding your game will make your game run slower, so we set up a powerhouse framework so that when you add your mods it won't slow your game as much. I only want to provide the details for setting up framework and performance mods that you can build upon. I will not be using this space to tell you what mods you should play your game with. We will only be setting up the basic framework for you to build your mod list on. I'm going to use this guide to describe to you how to set up a basic modding foundation manually.
