Fallout 4 console mods |OT| Mod peasants strike back

- Start date
Here's what my game looks like with 38 mods on Xbox One. I've used less than 10% of the available mod storage.
How's the performance?

Holy shit.
Here's me with both Piper and Dogmeat as companions at same time, at a vault entrance for a vault I built. Piper has new hair and face.
I've stuck this in the OP. Shoot me screenshots of nice things, any cool mods or shots I'll edit into the OP. I want to rewrite and re-graphics it properly.

Just soooooo cool. I haven't touched the game since I put 150 hours into it during launch week (ps4).
Very excited about survival mode with mods. I couldn't care less about achievements.

Alright, time to start the REAL playthrough.
As said on last page, keep hitting download (and if you get kicked to login screen, press B and go back to Mods - it auto logs you in, don't keep entering details each time).
Or wait for Bethesda to fix the server infrastructure.
Does using that many Mod have any performance impact? If not I'm really impressed by it (like to the point were I'll forgive all it's shortcoming of the base game). Also looks beautiful, might do a play through with that mod enabled.

Curious as well. I started to have real framerate problems, like slideshow problems with the framerate.
I also had problems with freezing. I'm hopin the mods don't mess up the performance.
I'm capturing everything and will report back. It's perfectly playable, as I'm.. uhm.. playing. I didn't finish the base game, so I'm working on that now.
Is that post modding, or before you added any mods?

I expressed my thoughts, I don't owe you anything else. I just think they could find a way. My job is telecom/networking, not video game design.

There's 2 mods that I want to get and will be the highest priority when they come to PS4, but if anyone can try them out for me and post their own screenshots (or even videos) I will be much obliged.

My Fallout experience would never be complete without this mod, and luckily enough, console owners will soon get to enjoy one of the most immersive FO4 mods to date.
True Storms! Console support coming soon!

YES!!!!! This is another mod I have kept my eye on in the hopes it would be ported for console!! Add that to the list of my post above when it comes, top 3 mods I have to have.
Is Real Nights with Real Lights not available anymore? It says no longer available when I try to download but not sure if it's actually gone or it's just because the servers are wonky...
hopefully just a server issue because that one sounds quite cool.
Also having issues with 'younger male face texture'. If I try to change facial features on a character, his face randomly turns brown. Not like a skin colour change either because the skin near hairline and the back of his neck is still white... so more like bad facepaint. It's rather amusing (because of how random it is) but I had to disable it because it's not helpful for the character I was trying to create
I think i'll have another go tomorrow and try some different ones. Hopefully it will be working better then.

Can still find it on the website. Might just be the servers.

*edit: yep it's probably the servers. the website just died on me.

Looks good, gossi.
I remember when modding was announced on console, with a video detailing it, I got absolutely hammered here by people saying what I was posting was "intentionally misleading" and such. When I pointed out I was quoting the Bethesda video, I was labeled "stupid", and told there would be no way mods of any complexity would make it to console.
So just for those guys:

Yeah they need to put this on PS4 asap. That night mod seems like a real game changer on survival.

Site isn't even working for me. There goes my playthrough today.
US people are returning home from work/school/etc. It's going to nose dive off a cliff, methinks. Clearly, they have some extreme server side capacity woes. Give it a few days overall. (Or wait until a time when most of the US and EU are in bed, and it should be fine).
servers are hammered. bethesda is pretty much getting ddos'd

One word: SimCity. (Is that two words?). The server infrastructure and way things are built look.. problematic. Even the client does some goofy things, like auto restarting downloads every time a download fails == server hammer.
Anyhoo, out of hours I found it worked fine. If you get booted to login screen, press B to exit and go back into Modding - it auto logs you in. If download fails, repeat it. If you don't want to do that, it's cool, just wait until Bethesda give the all clear. My hunch would be this will go on for days rather than hours, as it looks like design based issues. PS4 players, we beta for you

This was 100% expected and now just being persistent and trying to get what I can. Probably will wait till midnight or later when not as many people are on. Still super hyped about this and can't wait to actually play. Can't say I'm too upset cause it's free though would be nice if Bethesda was on top of this but when has a launch ever gone perfect?

Someday soon, console owners too will know the combined joy and pain of knowing that they could have a self-definitive Fallout 4 experience if only they're willing to put in hours and hours of work and finagling. God, I've got this game sitting here, installed fresh, on my drive, but I've also got a bookmarks folder with 400 mods in it and I'm gonna look over each and every goddamn one again to decide what stays and what goes, before I even get started installing them. Be happy you don't know this pain - yet

I come from modding Skyrim on PC, and now I have a GTX 970 I revised my mod loadout again and again, added about 10 hours or something silly just testing out some mods
When it comes to PS4 I'll be the same for Fallout 4

It's sort of working now. Won't let me view mod pages, though. They must be close to getting back to running.

Modded Fallout games are flat out fucking phenomenal, hope you all enjoy!
We're working on it. It's a new world.
Thank you!
That's correct. The modded saves put [M] next to your player.
Remember though, if you do want to go back to Vanilla Fallout, you not only need to go back to the non-[M] player, but you also need to go through and disable all saves. If you go back to a non-modded save without doing that, the mods will still load.
Thank you, and hats off.
I just installed the Darker Nights and Darker Lights mod, and Pip Boy light mod. I'll post shortly about results.

what have you done to my sweet Piper
I can vouch for this, add Darker nights and it makes the game much better.

This looks like a game changer! I can't wait to see where this goes. Who knows? Maybe the 2gb limit will be increased. Gonna try it out on PS4 when it's available.
What's the mod for having two companions. The reason I haven't played much with the other companions is I hate giving up dogmeat. He should be my constant companion.
