Mandatory
- Do not waste time if you are using a pirated copy of the game, Steam VR version is REQUIRED
- Do not waste time if you don't have Nexus premium
- You must download and install the latest Visual C++ x86 and x64 and .NET desktop
- You must have 32GB system memory, internal SSD and increase virtual memory to 40GB or more
- You must set shader cache to 10GB or more in Nvidia/AMD control panel
- You must disable auto-save in game to avoid entry/exit crashes, do not use Quick Save ever
Pre-installation
- Mandatory: Copy 32 downgraded DLC files from Fallout 4 flat screen /data To Fallout 4 VR /data
- Set Steam VR to 100% in global video settings as well as Skyrim VR video setting
- Set game to English
- Do a Steam file validation
- Move Skyrim VR itself out of Program Files and into a separate folder like C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Fallout 4 VR
Installation
- Download the zip file from Nexus, extract into .wabbajack file
- Download and run Wabbajack program itself from https://www.wabbajack.org/ and choose the install from disk option, choose the .wabbajack file, install it
- Your wabbajack file, game folder and mod list installation folder must be completely separate root folders. Something like C:\Downloads for .wabbajack file, C:\Steam Library\Fallout 4 VR for the game, and C:\Mad God Overhaul for the mod list itself
- Antivirus will occasionally flag Wabbajack files or even textures from Nexus, it is safe to ignore, turn off all antivirus and defender if you don't know how to whitelist
- Typical download errors are caused by Nexus server issues. Quit Wabbajack, restart, overwrite to resume and you won't lose any progress. If every file is failing, relog into Nexus from Wabbajack
- If the error is about a file that should be part of standard Skyrim installation (i.e. INI file or DLL file), set the game to English, do a Steam file validation
- You do not EVER need to delete and reinstall a Wabbajack list from scratch, it is a 100% file sync
Starting The Game
- Once installation is complete, open MO2 from the installed folder and run "Play Game (F4SEVR)" from upper right corner, everything is already included and ready to go out of box
- Disable Dynamic Resolution in Game! Super sampling in game should be set to lowest in-game
- When starting new game, stand still wait for all the start-up scripts to run and finish if you are using NSFW version which takes a minute, save the right after all the initial start-up tasks are ran
- Mods/plugins are disabled for a reason, do not mass enable all or sort plugins with LOOT, if you did, restore mod order with back arrow on mod tab, restore plugin order with back arrow on plugin tab
- Do not try to use a vanilla save to see the vanilla intro, you must start the game fully modded to avoid corrupted save. You will start outside of the vault elevator and rest of it is vanilla
