Fallout 4 A World Of Pain

Fallout 4 DLC Nuka-World features another quest that seems to be pretty straightforward at the. (which are a pain to try to kill on their own). 'Defend the Castle' is a quest in Fallout 4. I'm trying to get back into fallout 4 have a year plus long hiatus so I'm out of the modding loop. I was wondering if there are any mods for fallout 4 that are similar to FNV and F03's AWOP aka a world of pain? If so could anyone provide some recommendations or any mod that makes fallout 4 fun to explore again. A World of Pain will be awesome on Fallout 4! And all of the Someguy series! Putting the pipe in Piper 1 point 4 years ago. This is a helpful location map. I like to live at each settlement for a while and explore all around it and this is a great guid for that. In the Fallout series, there are many shared themes among many of the canonical games among their plots, location settings, and other game content. 1 Shared themes 1.1 War Never Changes 1.2 Survival and Society 1.3 Recreating the New World in the Image of the Old 2 Fallout and Fallout 2 2.1 Post-Post-Apocalypse 3 Fallout 3 3.1 Paranoia 3.2 Ethics and Morality 3.3 Sacrifice 4 Fallout: New Vegas.

Fallout 4 A World Of Paintball

Settlements are a unique feature that was added to the series by Bethesda starting with Fallout 4. There have been mods like Real Time Settler that added these same features to earlier games, but it wasn’t until Fallout 4 that the mechanics were officially added by the developers. There are plenty of locations to choose from to build your settlements, but the sad fact is some of them aren’t very good. Here is our list of the ten best settlement locations out of all the ones available in the game.

Spectacle Island

This is the largest settlement in the game and is possibly the most fun to get. The island is off the coast of the Commonwealth near the ruins of Quincy and the Warwick Homestead. The settlement is essentially your own private island complete with a marina, a house, and a small shack for you to start with. The biggest problems with this island is the mirelurks and the inordinate amount of garbage you will need to scrap.

A large portion of the garbage is underwater, but the mirelurks can be scared off after you turn on a beacon. The island has a decent height limit but very little infrastructure. You can build whatever you want on this island and not have to worry too much about raiders or other attackers due to the natural defenses. If you grab a mod to get rid of build limits you can turn it into your own Island city, a massive fortress, or just a place to hang your hat when you are sick of the hustle and bustle of the Commonwealth.

Sanctuary Hills

This is the first settlement in the game and one of the largest you can get hold of. It is close to a Red Rocket that can be looted and turned into an outpost, and there is tons of materials that can be scrapped. It has a lot of room for growth and makes a nice base of operations.

There is plenty of space for farms, traders, and just about every kind of utility and settler you will ever need. The downside is that it is almost constantly under attack from raiders and can be a pain to defend if you haven’t built up your defenses early. It can also be a bit depressing to have to see Shaun and your Spouse’s old rooms. We recommend downloading a mod to repair the bridge that leads out of town.

Starlight Drive-In

This is one of the largest settlements in the game. It provides a large canvas for you to build whatever you want. There are a bunch of cars, barrels, and other items laying around that can be scrapped to give you a nice pile of resources to get started. You can build a thriving settlement of survivors, an imposing fortress, or just a gallery to keep your knick-knacks. The sky is the limit for this location.

Bunker Hill

This iconic location is built for strong trade routes and handling any raiders foolish enough to try and attack it. The settlement features a decent wall that can be further reinforced for better defenses. The settlement is already a thriving trade town and you can capitalize on this to get plenty of caps and to help move supplies around.

Even if you don’t do anything with it you can still earn caps passively. The sooner you can get your hands on this settlement the better, it will make the game a touch easier in the long run. The biggest downside to Bunker Hill is that you can’t do anything with the Obelisk in the middle of town.

Covenant

Covenant is a small town that doubles as a pre-built settlement. You’ll need to give it a little TLC to get it up and running completely, but it has loads of benefits. The entire town is surrounded by a wall that can be easily fortified with just basic defenses. There is also plenty of settlers already present for you to work with.

Among the residents is a robot named Deezer that can give you a can of lemonade once per day that heals you for 50 hit points. The downside to this settlement is that it is also one of the smallest in the game and doesn’t have a lot of room for customization.

Red Rocket stations

These locations are available pretty early on and easily accessible. They are scattered all over the map and generally have a lot of good loot in them. It is easy to overlook these locations because they are a bit smaller, but they are invaluable for building supply chains and make excellent safe houses.

The Red Rocket locations are all located in good areas for creating Provisioner supply chains for your settlements. You can keep your settlements from running out of vital supplies and create an excess of resources for you to use at all of your workshops. If you invest in defenses you can also duck into any convenient Red Rocket when you are low on health or picked a bigger fight than you can handle.

Graygarden

Graygarden offers a lot of customization options and can be completely self-sustaining with minimal upkeep. The settlement comes with a built-in garden and greenhouse with some Mister Handys to maintain it all for you. You can create a steady supply of food and ingredients without ever needing to tend to the robots. Attach it to a supply chain and you can keep other settlements fed with little effort. There is also a freeway overpass nearby that you can build on to create defensive emplacements or any utilities you may want.

Vault 88

If you have ever wanted to have your very own vault, this is your chance to have one. Vault 88 can be found in a small cave beneath the Quincy Quarries raider base. You’ll need to clear out the raiders, some radscorpions, and complete some short quests to get full access, but it is well worth the work. The vault features a large number of passages and chambers that can be converted into anything you need. You can also unlock more room by finding control boards throughout the vault.

Abernathy Farm

The Abernathy Farm has the highest build limit in the game and a very large build area to play with. You can expand the farm to give yourself a large supply of agricultural items and keep your supply chains flush with food. Or you can build a towering citadel to act as your headquarters. No matter what you choose to do, this is a good settlement to grab early on.

Finch Farm

At first look Finch Farm is unassuming. What makes this little farm so unique is its location. It is found beneath a freeway overpass. The maximum build height for this settlement reaches the overpass so you can build on top of it. You can turn the overpass into extra housing, make it a strong defensive emplacement, or just make a watchtower for you to look around the area. It comes with a cooking station, a water pump, and a small house. There is also a small farm available that can be expanded to meet your needs.

How to Install Mods - Fallout: New Vegas

Fallout NV isn’t the easiest game to mod, but we have troubleshot and done our best to provide a bug-free mod list. Follow these instructions and Fallout NV should work (mostly) fine:

• Install Fallout NV (including DLC).
• Install Nexus Mod Manager and direct it to your Fallout NV folder if it does not detect it automatically.
• Download the mods and patches listed below, links will link to the mod pages.
• Install the mods. When installing updates to mods (or multi-part mods) and NMM asks if you would like upgrade to the new mod, select “no” and then select “yes to all” to have the update overwrite the original mod files, if there are any conflicting files.
• Follow this mod install order. If asked to overwrite something, say “yes to all.”

1. NVSE (Just extract it and place the files in the game directory)

2. 4GBFNV-1-9 (Place in game directory if it pops up with an error)

3. Project Ultimatum (This is the 9.7 update)

4. Fallout Character Overhaul - v2.1 (Some options may cause crashing, it is suggested to only check eye and hair texture boxes, along with a teeth texture. Be sure that bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles=1 in FalloutPrefs.ini.)

5. Interior Lighting Overhaul - Interior Lighting OVerhaul 6-7 (It is suggested to only check the A World of Pain box)

6. ENB (These cannot be installed by NMM and must be done manually, there are instruction on the ENB’s pages. There are multiple ENBs we recommend, 1, 2, 3)

Note: Nexus Mod Manager integrates a load order program called BOSS and will automatically sort your Fallout NV mods. To launch Fallout NV, use the 4GB Enabler .exe file. The new .exe can be configured to be launched via NMM.

Troubleshooting Fallout NV Bugs, Crashes, & Fixes

Luckily, Fallout: New Vegas is fairly stable compared to Fallout 3, though it does still have problems. The major ones are covered here.

Freezing or crashing randomly - This is usually due to Fallout only being able to properly use two threads at most. Follow these steps:

1. Open the folder My documents / My Games / FalloutNV

2. Edit the file FALLOUT.ini.

3. Inside FALLOUT.ini look for a group called [general].

4. Inside the general group, after all the configuration parameters, change bUseThreadedAI=0 to 1 and after it add iNUMHWThreads=2

5. Now save and close the .ini file and try playing.

Crashing at start of game -

1. Run Fallout NV in different compatibility modes.

Or

1. Try running without mods or DLC. If it crashes reinstall/verify game files via Steam, if not, continue.

2. Disable all mods and run Fallout 3 with the DLC. If it still crashes, try enabling DLC one-by-one to see if one of them is causing the problem. If not, continue.

3. If disabling mods fixed the crashing, enable half of the mods and see if the crashes persist.

4. Keep halving the mods activated until you learn which mod is causing the problem.

5. Reinstall that mod.

6. If that does not solve the crashes, either ensure you have installed compatibility mods needed for that mod or uninstall the suspect mod completely.

Random Crashes - This can be due to a number of root causes. While I haven’t had any issues, it is possible others will experience instability. Try installing CASM or try these steps:

1. Open the folder My documents / My Games / FalloutNV

2. Open the file FALLOUT.ini to edit it.

3. Use ctrl-F and search “bUseThreadedAI”.

4. Change that line to say bUseThreadedAI=1 instead, and then add iNumHWThreads=2 on the line below it.

5. Now save and close the .ini file and try playing.

(This limits the number of threads Fallout NV can use, since natively it will use too many threads and crash).

Or

Try the same steps as for crashing at start of game.

There are big red boxes with explanation marks - this is due to missing textures. Follow these steps to solve:

1. Disable all mods and run Fallout 3 with the DLC, if there are still red boxes reinstall Fallout NV/verify game files via Steam.

2. If disabling mods fixed the boxes. Enable half of the mods and see if the boxes persist.

3. Keep halving the mods activated until you learn which mod is causing the problem.

4. Reinstall that mod.

5. If that does not solve the boxes issue, either ensure you have installed compatibility mods needed for that mod or uninstall the suspect mod.

There are borders around Fallout: New Vegas even though it is full screen - Alt-Tab or alt-enter. It will expand Fallout NV to fullscreen but not actually bring you to another window.

If you have any further issues, please put them in the comments and we will help you solve them.

Tips & Conclusion

• Press the ` key and type in “TCL” if you get stuck somewhere. That will disable collision and allow you to walk through anything. Type “TCL” again to enable collision.
• For AMD GPUs, you can use RadeonPro to force HBAO, SSAA, SweetFX, and more by linking it to the 4GB launcher. NVidia users can use GeForce Experience and the nVidia Control Panel to do this.
• If a type of AA, tessellation, or anisotropic filtering is being forced through either of the programs above, turn it off in game.
• If using an ENB, do not force AA, tessellation, or anything through drivers or other software.

Our collection of mods is certainly not all-encompassing -- in fact, it’s far from it. We didn't want to have too many files in the install list unless needed, so some mods were cut out. If you know of any good mods we didn’t mention, feel free to post them in the comments below! This mod overhaul takes a somewhat old game and renovates it to be a good-looking, fun, and challenging new experience. The post-apocalyptic, desert wasteland in Fallout: New Vegas is an incredibly unique experience to play through, and with mods, it’s worth exploring all over again.
