Fallout 4 Next-Gen Update Thread: Newest update going out, new FPS toggles and more
- Thread starter AgentStrange
- Start date
For those who had been playing on XBX with mods on, did you notice all mods were uninstalled after the new update? Just wanted to make sure that's supposed to happen since I was planning on disabling them anyway for the new update.
Ehhhh not entirely. In the previous update if you used the nvidia app, the text and selection box "brackets" were thicker, so they fixed the scaling there... otherwise it's pretty close
I think visuals on Series S are sharper (60 fps mode) now comparing with old visuals + fps boost.
The PS4 version was crashing on start up if you had two of the add-ons enabled. Can someone confirm if this is fixed with the new version?
Seriously? We had half a decade worth of mods broken and Fallout London delayed for this? We'll be lucky if 75% of mods get fixed. I've always said that this should've been a separate branch/title entirely.Sorriest excuse for 21:9 support, this is gross.
Ultrawide support was the only thing that made this update worthwhile for PC users.
This is a tricky one to fix. The reason it doesn't work on RTX or newer cards is because Nvidia stopped supporting it. On GTX cards like 10xx series, it does work because those cards support the feature. So do you disable the feature entirely and remove it for those with older cards that do support the feature? Do you make a white list, and stop people from running it if future RTX cards support it again? Do you do a black list, but you would need to keep it updated? I think they should go with a white list or remove it entirely.
How big is the update?
I see download for a high resolution texture pack also, is it part of this?

Yup. They don't seem to have done any real graphical updates. Same lighting, same effects, and just ultra settings you'd have gotten on PC on launch.

This is what I expected them to do and I'm still disappointed.
Yes it does. I have then all installed and it runs without problems

I read that the performance mode is in standard settings which would be a bummer. Can anyone confirm de visual settings in performance mode on ps5?

i don't have an ultrawide monitor but this is lazy AF
also, game logic still breaks above 60fps. "next-gen" lol
I'm not sure what exactly this manifest trick is for. The update still appears on your Steam's download queue and if I want to start the game without updating, it needs to be in offline mode or through a third-party launcher. Wouldn't it be more practical just check the option to update only when starting the game?
I played for a bit on Xbox streaming (which uses the Series S profile), and it looked/played solid.
2 hours and no problems on the Steam version. Most of my mods are still working too. It's really good to get back into this game.
On the other hand, I hadn't remembered how ugly the faces were. The difference with Starfield is really glaring, and yet it's not one of Starfield's strong points either. A quick comparison :

They should be absolutely embarrassed for calling this "ultrawide support." What in the hell. Why even mention it?

Absolute clowns.
It's almost funny that the ultrawide support is literally just what was already there since 2015 if you manually changed the resolution in the INI files.
I think it is really the only update to pc version, right? Other than the bug fixes all versions got. Ill have to look at the patch notes again.
As far as I know, it has to do with the version of Nvidia's FleX SDK used by Bethesda. The SDK used in the game needs to be updated but obviously Bethesda didn't bother lol
Played a quick half hour, the character models are a bit ropey but the outer world looks fantastic.
I'm on the X on a 120hz TV playing the 40fps mode, feels great just wish I could tweak the fov.

PS+ issues are a bug

No auto pop trophies? Wanted a free platinum ☹️. Not doing all that settlement shit again. Max happiness is just so finicky.
Wait, you want to add durability?? I was happy to escape that coming back to 4 from 76

I don't think that kind of functionality is possible due to the restrictions that Sony placed on mods. They don't allow mods that utilize external assets to be downloaded. Did a cursory search and couldn't find anything.

The weapon debris bug is still present. Disable "weapon debris" in the FO4 Launcher
New
Maybe there should be a threadmark, or note in the OP, about the weapon debris bug. If you are on pc with an Nvidia video card and are experiencing crashes, make sure to disable the "weapon debris" feature in the launcher.
