Fallout 4 mods I like and/or use. Warning: While most of the mods I like just change some minor bits or automate parts I don't want to do (but still want to enjoy, e.g. Sim Settlements), many of these mods are ridiculously unbalanced (double perks, brutal melee, brutal guns, permanent fusion cores) and will ruin the game experience for you if you just load them all up before you've played a bunch of FO4.

Fixes

  • Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch - Fixes for various FO4 bugs

Questing

  • Radiant Quest Marker (Complete) - puts an [R] next to quests that are radiant (i.e. randomly assigned, from one of the factions) quests, vs story or side quests

Sim Settlements

  • Sim Settlements - Don't micro-manage your settlements, instead toss down concrete pads (recreation, house, commercial, martial, etc) and a free settler will care for it.
  • Sim Settlements: Industrial Revolution - Adds industrial plots that can advance down various "progression trees" to provide different benefits
  • Sim Settlements Addon- Junk Town - additional plot layouts
  • Sim Settlements: Wasteland Ventures - additional plot layouts
  • Sim Settlements: Wasteland Ventures 2 - additional plot layouts
  • Sim Settlements: Rise of the Commonwealth - choose from one or more (1 max at time of writing) preset city layouts for most settlements, then assist the city leader (one of your idle companions) in raising the city from level 0 to 3, as the city auto-builds.
  • Sim Settlements - Ted's Leaders Pack - extension for Rise of the Commonwealth expansion discussed above: allows 10 or so additional NPCs (Sturges, 2-3 NPCs from Abernathy Farm, 2-3 NPCs from Finch Farm, and more) to become city leaders, so you can build more cities at once

  • Corn Starch - Adds several recipes to craft corn starch, an adhesive
  • Building Materials Dispenser - Craft a vending machine to sell you building materials

  • Craftable Buffout - craft the Buffout chem
  • NukaCraft - Nuka Cola Recipes --- Various recipes to enhance various flavors of Nuka-Cola
  • Money Is Not Junk - prevents pre-war money from being marked as junk (== prevent from being scrapped into cloth)
  • Craftable SPECIAL Books - Craft 100 pre-war money into a book that will grant you 1 SPECIAL point, just like the book under the crib in the house across from the sanctuary workshop (oops spoiler)
  • [PC] Weightless Components - Sets the weight for almost all junk to 0 so you can spend your time playing Fallout 4 instead of Cargo Van Simulator
  • M.R.E.'s - Craft some good food
  • Workshop Turret Pack [PC] - Adds a bunch of wacky turret types that you can craft

Power Armor

  • Dogmeat Redux! - Makes Dogmeat bigger and faster and adds carry weight
  • Everyone's Best Friend (Dogmeat) - Dogmeat doesn't count as a companion (as was apparently intended originally) so you can take a companion + Dogmeat with you on your murder sprees
  • Visible Companion Affinity - Allows you to directly see your 94.9% affinity, with Cait, instead of having to guess what "ok bby" means.
  • Companions can sneak - Your companions VERY OCCASIONALLY succeeed in sneaking (but will usually blow up a mine anyway)
