An extensive overhaul that touches upon almost every aspect of the game which aims to make the game more fun, challenging in a good way and varied while rewarding skill and tactics.
Not a true requirement but will completely negate the extended loading times that come with large mods like UFO. (It's also an incredible mod you should check out regardless)

Version 2.6.2
2.6.2
-The 'pacify' perks have been rebalanced for more stealthy uses(this one was tricky!), as long as a target is not attacking(searching for you doesn't count), you will always succeed at intimidating, but you will have to get closer to the target than before(very close for humans, moderate distance for creatures)
^the logic is that a tanky combat build has little use for making a target pacified when they can just shoot them in the face, while a stealthy character can really make use of having an extra temporary 'companion' to fight for them

-Buffed the perk magazine "Tumblers Today" to make more of a difference (5% bonus per magazine instead of 2%)
-Changed the "Covert Operations" magazines to actually make you slightly better at sneaking rather than just decreasing your movement noise, the Sneak perk does that well enough on its own
-Converted the Nuka World weapon "Acid Soaker" to "Oil Spitter", it will fire blobs of oil that create a 'hazard' when it impacts the ground that can then be shot and ignited for a long duration
^I can't stop you from shooting these blobs at walls, but if you do they will just kinda float in mid-air so that's up to you
-Reduced the costs of a few shipments further
-Slightly decreased the damage of the plasma flamer attachment but increase the rate of fire

-Prefixed the custom chem Prevent with 'Damaged' just so it makes more sense for MacCready's questline

Version 2.6
2.6
-Added a simple tweak that makes the mod automatically compatible with Survival Mode, old survival patches deleted - Thanks to Nexus user "Rykin14" for this tip
-Added a bunch of "Ammo Component" boxes only found in Lunchboxes, this was the only way I could figure out how to give the player more than a single round of a ammo type via lunchbox drops, which means you won't find single .45 rounds in lunchboxes anymore, but instead a valuable component box you can either redeem at a chemstation or sell for some extra caps
^may be redesigned later if I can figure out a better method
-Restored a cut weapon from Nuka World, a "fake" alien blaster based on the one from New Vegas/FO3, found in nuka world and comes with some custom attachments
^fires 'space laser' projectiles by default, the real alien blaster now only fires the target-seeking projectiles so they are both unique enough

-Added the option to simply remove weaves from a piece of clothing so you can just swap it around for no cost

-Added some basic attachments for the Assaultron Blade
-Lorenzo's Suit can be upgraded like other suits and grants +2 Charisma and -15% to incoming damage, needs to be respawned with console if already obtained
-Tweaked the Gas Mask and Hazard Mask to both offer something different but also have them not be so good that you feel forced to put one on instead of stat buffing glasses or such
-Gave "Swatter" baseball bats a higher damage bonus
-Added two new attachments for the Missile Launcher, "Seeker Barrel" and "Triple Seeker Barrel", fires slow-moving target-seeking rockets with a drastically reduced explosion radius
^slap a scope on one of those to massively increase target seeking range, also once locked on to a target, try firing at an angle up behind yourself to hit a target from above
-Removed the "Dud Barrel" Missile Launcher attachment, I'm not entirely sure why I made that in the first place
-Removed the shotgun sound from the Lever Action Rifle's shotgun conversions, it didn't work so well if you put a silencer on it
-Removed stats from bandanas so they're purely cosmetic and optional

^essentially takes the place of the vanilla flamer, but more compact and with a higher end-game potential
-Made the flamer shoot straighter, making it easier to aim at a distance
-Improved accuracy of all Double Barrel Shotgun barrels
-Reduced the distance of searchlights to almost vanilla, looked too ugly indoors and performs horribly with shadows enabled to circumvent that
-Removed headlamps from raiders, it looks too terrible indoors

-Added a new attachment for the Missile Launcher, "Triple Miss Barrel", for all your high capacity bootleg grenade launcher needs
-Altered the legendary weapon effect "Deadeye" to have 50% increased accuracy and 75% decreased recoil instead of a buggy slowmotion effect
-Altered the legendary weapon effect "Steadfast" and "Hitman" to also require the player to stand still for the effects
-Buffed the perk 'Finesse' by slightly increasing the armor cap each rank and giving it a lesser damage bonus to melee & unarmed weapons as well
-Buffed the perk 'Moving Target' with slightly higher dodge chances, but the perk no longer works in power armor

Version 2.5.2
2.5.2
-Reworked Lead Belly to reduce rads from food less, not grant rad immunity at rank 3 and have the passive radiation purge only work when it's below certain values
^lead belly will mostly only be useful for food items and minor irraditation now, if you get some more intense rads you will have to use radaway or such
-Aquaboy/Aquagirl now only has one rank but does not grant water breathing
-Life Giver grants less health regen normally, but rank 3 grants exponentially powerful health regen the lower your health drops, nothing intense but it can help you in a pinch
-Vertibirds now have different rank names and unique weapons for each rank, if you didn't fear them before you might just fear them after this update
-Changed the Poseidon Turret to be a Mark VII explosive turret, not much more powerful than Mark V incendiary but hits targets more often and tends to give the player XP for kills made
-Shotguns are no longer allowed to spawn with the legendary effect "Hateful" due to the same reason they can't spawn with "Explosive", each pellet applies the effect individually and stacks

-Fixed a bug where the Poison Bomb dealt more damage than intended
-Fixed Solar Powered's Strength bonus not applying properly

-Added a new item, "Tactical Deployable Gas Canister", just converts a regular gas canister into a throwable version, does nothing until shot and can be picked back up, can be used as a cheapo deadly trap if you bunch a few together

-Added proper custom tags for gloves, and also icons for the VIS version
-Removed the IED Trap script, doesn't want to work the way I want it to so I decided to just leave it be
-Flashbangs will no longer cripple the players head and you instead get -10 perception for the duration, still cripples npc's heads for the sole reason of them exlaiming that they can't see when they get hit
-Flashbangs will now reduce the accuracy of everyone affected, NPC's too
-Flashbang visual effect will linger for the whole duration of the negative effects
-Made it possible for commonwealth's Children of Atom to have various weapons and not just Gamma Guns

-Slightly increased timer on Nuka grenades
-Added the molerat suicider 'weapon' to Pack members and Trappers with varying spawn chances
-Decreased the speed and increased the projectile drop of railway spike projectiles
-Buffed the Flamer, higher direct hit damage and ground fires cause lingering burns, still best used as a tactical weapon but is now more capable in direct combat too

^this was done to both make it more fun to use and less horrible to face, you shouldn't get instakilled by missile launcher users anymore unless you're badly equipped and low on endurance
-Buffed the effects of 'Dirty Wastelander' drink to reflect the crafting cost
-Increased the splash radius of the plasma Bomber Barrel, very slightly decreased impact damage and increased the DoT damage

-Added a compatibility patch for "DeadPool2099's Service Rifle"
^if you already have the service rifle installed(which you shouldn't without a patch to begin with! naughty naughty), you will need to uninstall it, start your game and save, go back and reinstall it, add the patch and then you're good to go

-Removed the stimpak addiction, just didn't work out as well as it could've, so stab away
-Rebalanced armor values & all related perks and ingestibles, values will now be considerably lower overall except for power armor & creatures
^as a result, combat will be more intense for both early and end gameplay and certain outfit items like the railroad coats may actually be viable options for a change, offering good protection at the cost of being less flexible
-Gloves can additionally be upgraded with various Misc mods
-Most outfits that normally come with gloves are now without gloves, this both fixes a problem where NPC's may become naked with just gloves on and also allows for more freedom to wear your own gloves with more outfits
-Added a couple of outfits that may be hard to obtain normally to clothing shop inventories
-A few full outfits like Railroad Armored Coats or the Battlecoat can now be additionally upgraded with Misc linings

-Power Armor will now give the wearer a small amount of Poison Resistance, mainly to make the fairly common poison bombs not be extremely powerful against wearers

-Shotgun Surgeon now applies to beam splitters as well
-Added a new item, "Deployable Lunchbox", basically just spawns a regular lunchbox for you to open, can be bought from vendors and found as rare loot
-Added a second upgrade for Grognak's Axe which will add a tiny amount of extra damage and double the bleed damage
-Synth Relay Grenades are craftable with synth components(synth components are also considered valuables instead of scrap with the VIS patch now)
-Added a new item, "Synth Mass Relay Grenade" which will spawn 5 synths in a cluster at once, expensive but powerful

-Added the Synth Component item to a few lists & vendors as rare items to give you more for crafting the new items
-Kremvh's Tooth now has a 2% chance to instantly kill any target
-Gun traps will now always be double barrel shotguns instead of any regular small firearm, to increase danger and reduce profits from not picking up fully upgraded laser rifles like candy anymore
-Demolition Expert rank 2 & 5 will additionally reduce incoming explosion damages by 10% and 20%
-Steady Aim now only has 2 ranks, make sure to remove the third rank manually if you already own it, nothing will happen if you don't but you'll waste a perfectly good perk point!

-Reduced how early raiders get access to stronger grenades

-Reduced price of Adhesive shipments a bit
-Nerfed Toughness rank 5
-Nerfed Moving Target overall but improved final rank slightly
-Nerfed Finesse to +50% damage but the final rank increases it to +60%, double damage was a bit too powerful, still very powerful and fun though! (also removed a hidden 10% incoming damage intentional debuff from the perk, ssh dont tell anyone it was ever there)
-Nerfed reach of searchlights(the kind you find around raider camps or such) but made them wider, mainly to reduce visual buggery
-Nerfed Mr. Gutsy's automatic weapons severely
-Nerfed the HP of a few higher-end enemies
-Nerfed movement speed of Mirelurk Hunters
-Nerfed higher-end turrets
-Nerfed splash radius of the Bomber barrel for the plasma gun, still perfect for hitting targets behind cover, multiple targets in a cluster or just hitting almost every shot in general
-Improved the night vision effect from Cat Eye & increased the duration, should be very useful for prowling the nights now
-Disabled human NPC's ability to perform killmoves on the player, no more randomly getting instakilled in melee combat (if it still happens, please report it and with what weapon the human opponent used against you)
-Doggos can grab the player by the leg just like they can against any other human foe
-Increased cost of the Fusion Generator, it's available pretty early and can meet almost any power needs even with Sim Settlements, so it needs to be more costly
-Gave Trashcan Carla & Cricket new outfits & weapons, because I can!
-Made it harder for NPC's to spot you vertically, as in it will be easier to hide up on a rooftop and not be spotted as easily
-Further increased NPC's ability to block melee attacks
-The Radium Rifle will no longer get bonus Poison damage with upgrades but instead regular damage, it still deals basic Poison damage over time regardless of upgrades though

Version 2.2
2.2
-Fixed a bug that caused the game to crash when playing without the VIS patch
-Reduced random critical hit chance to 0.5% per point of Luck, some investment into the Luck tree will be required to get the most out of crits now
-Added level scaling to most NPC's, this means they will scale to your level and get better gear over time but they won't get any bonus health
^this will help make the game more challenging later on and also give you better loot as a side effect
-Set the maximum level for all areas in the game to be infinite
-Intimidation/pacify perks do not check for levels anymore, but will not work on any legendary targets or power armor users

-Disabled shadows for searchlights
-Did basic changes for a few missed clothing pieces
-Added weapon skin keywords & attachment points to all equippable weapons, load any skin related mod before the overhaul and it should work fine

*Throwing Harpoon: Electric - Medium-high damage, inflicts both bleeding and electric damage over time

*Throwing Hatchet - High damage, inflicts strong bleeding and can be retrieved even after a successful hit
^these will replace the old throwing knives & harpoons and may be found as loot and used by enemies
^^they are all(except explosive harpoon) affected by Big Leagues & Ninja, excellent for sneaky players who want a little more class with their takedowns
-Added a new chem station category for throwables so you don't have to go thru all the grenade recipes to get what you want
-Added a new type of resistance, "Bleed Resist", it will obviously reduce bleed damage and can be gotten from bandages, stimpaks and a few other things
-Most animals with claws & sharp teeth will inflict some bleeding
-The perk "Gun-Fu" has been turned into "Finesse" which lets you deal double damage with small firearms when you have below a certain amount of damage & energy resistances, high risk high reward

-The companion perk "Unite We Stand" reduces damage taken by 5% instead of granting you bonus damage & energy resistance

^remember that perks you already have may not be fully altered when updating unless you remove and re-add all the owned perk ranks via console commands after installing
-Added cut content of various gloves, they will be found around the world and at some vendors, they provide very minor buffs and can be slightly upgraded and work with most outfits
-Added upgrades to the Army Helmet, more DR but less ER than a Metal Helmet
-Added a new line of weaves for clothing called "Aramid Weave", exactly the same as Ballistic Weaves but for energy resistance
-Added a new line of weaves for hats, a bit weaker than regular weaves but can be applied to most normal hats so you can tip your favorite fedoras without giving up all armor in the process
-The clothing mod "Institute Killer Weave" buffs both physical and energy resistances and can be converted into a hat compatible version at a chemstation
-Rebalanced some clothing & armor pieces and buffed some unique pieces(like mechanist armor) to be plenty better
-Mama Murphy's outfit can be taken and worn, you strange strange person stealing clothes from the elderly
-Mama Murphy's hat is also a new seperate item, because why not
^both can be found at clothing vendors at well

-Marine Armor is slightly stronger and each piece grants a tiny bit of extra carry weight, it's covered in satchels on every piece so why not
-Silver Shroud armor is stronger and can be upgraded with weaves
-Modified a few pieces of headgear to allow glasses & masks if they are visually able to
-Reduced the cost of creating weaves a little
-Made it possible to take & use Gage's Eyepatch, just in case you want to
-Reduced the amount of Endurance you can get from various clothing pieces
-Greatly increased the radiation resistance from gas masks and gave them minor poison resistance
-Replaced the "Lobster Trap Helmet" with the cut "Trapper Helmet", looks a lot better and fits trappers more than a.. lobster cage
^I found out about this cut item from the wiki, it was all finished and ready to go but never added into the actual game for some reason
-Massively increased maximum range for artillery strikes and increased their speed and spread but increased cooldown to aprox 18 hours, see it as a daily ability with pretty much zero cost
-Removed meat from mirelurk hatchlings
-The Fatman "MIRV" modification has been turned into "Hellrazer" and will send out a barrage powerful fireballs, aim at an angle upwards to cover a huge area
^while less powerful against single opponents, it can cover an enormous area if used right and will make short work of most things, and additionally inflict fear & burn through cover
^^sadly unusable by NPC's because the weapon deals no initial damage and NPC's see that as useless and will pick literally any other weapon
-Made the Shishkebab deal a bit less physical damage and more energy damage
-Pulse grenades & mines no longer cause knockdown but instead heavy stagger
-The Missile Launcher's EMP sidegrade now uses regular missile ammo but is less powerful than a proper pulse grenade explosion
-Gave Gunners more and better grenades
-Added Frag MIRV grenades to some generic lists
-Added a new item "Unstable Fusion Core" which is a top-tier grenade(due to availability & relative power) that you can create with demolition expert 5, basically the same thing as a core ejection in power armor but thrown a safe distance

-Added a recipe to craft artillery smoke grenades if you have completed the appropriate quest
-Minutemen should now all wear militia hats to make them a bit easier to identify

-Reduced the amount of chems you'll find in loot
-Increased the basic sneaking skills of all companions
-Nerfed the damage reduction granted by the perk "Refractor" some
-Nerfed the perk "Nuclear Physicist" to not boost radiation damage, highly exploitable and the fusion core bonus is more than enough incentive to get it anyways
-Nerfed the perk "Fortune Finder" to yield less caps, still worthwhile in the long run
-Nerfed some energy weapons a little
-Nerfed shotguns some
-Nerfed radiation sources
-Removed the .50 conversion for the lever action rifle but added 3 shotgun conversions instead which npc's have access to as well
-Gamma Gun's "Zeta Wave Barrel" will now do bonus energy damage and projectiles will seek targets you aim at
-Replaced Missile Launcher's "Fragmentation Missile Barrel" with "Dud Barrel" which will fire non-exploding rockets that you can pick up after firing
^fragmentation missile could suffer from a strange bug where the fragments could spawn right under you and give you a very bad time, no idea how to fix that so it had to be replaced
-Huge explosions will stagger everyone around them
-Sped up bleeding again, slow bleed didn't work so good in practice
-Bear traps will break 40% of the time instead of 75% of the time

-Grenades will cost more to craft
-Added some stuff to the lunchbox drop list
-Some weapon upgrades can be accessed earlier, like the minigun and missile launcher attatchments
-Made the Windmill Generator as powerful as a Large Generator but it will also require Science 1 and more materials, they're cheaper than a Large Generator but take up more space
-The Fusion Generator uses up a Fusion Core instead of nuclear material and requires a lower rank of Science to access
-Companion damage nerf has been divided into melee and not melee, they will deal less damage with melee than with guns
-Removed railway rifles from npc's, for some reason they refuse to equip them on their own
-You will now start the game with Local Leader rank 1 & 2, this is the cleanest way to give you access to the functionality which I belive should not be locked behind perk points
-Nerfed the perk "Life Giver" to not give any bonus health on the first two ranks
-Nerfed the perk "Rad Child" to regenerate slower
-Nerfed poison bomb grenades
-Nerfed super mutant suiciders, they'll explode like a vanilla mini nuke which should make them less of a horrible pain in the butt
-Fixed "Inspirational" not working quite right
-Fixed not being able to grab molotovs mid-air, now it really works
-Fixed bear traps not doing the proper amount of damage, they're pretty deadly now and will benefit from Demolition Expert, watch your step!
-Fixed Action Boy/Girl rank 3 not reducing falling damage properly

^please note that critical hits that happen too quickly may not show up on your screen, but they still happen

-High caliber weapon conversions will allow the gun to dismember if it previously was unable to, and vice versa

-The occasional NPC's that spawn with a Gauss Rifle will now use up their 2mm ec ammo, but they spawn with more to compensate
-Gave synths a small movement speed bonus

-Added lens flare effects to most laser projectiles
-Made it easier to craft some of the custom flares
-Deathclaws will inflict prolonged bleeding with each hit, but so will the deathclaw gauntlet

-Decreased the effective size of bullet & laser projectiles which means they are far less likely to hit the air if you try to shoot through something narrow

-The perk "Better Criticals" has been renamed "Critical Thinker" which will increase your chance of dealing a non-VATS critical hit per point of Luck

-The perk "Heavy Gunner" will no longer buff explosive weapons due to it stacking with Demolition Expert
-The perk "Demolition Expert" now has 5 ranks like every other base damage perk

^if you already have rank 2 or 3 of this perk, you should preferrably remove them via console before updating and give yourself other perks via console for those lost points

-The perk "Ninja" now applies to 1H weapons and Unarmed weapons, not 2H
-The magazine perk "Unstoppable" gives you a 1% damage reduction per rank instead of 1% chance to avoid all damage, there's a perk for that after all

-Slightly increased chances for npc's to carry & use stealth boys and gave all legendary variations extra high chances, you're not the only one finding sweet loot

-The legendary weapon effect "Resilient" has been turned into "Skillful", it grants an overall boost to various things
-The legendary weapon effect "Furious" has been turned into "Shocking" which inflicts bonus energy damage and has a small chance to knock targets down
^turns out Furious was by far the most overpowered effect in the game, it gives you +15/20% bonus damage per hit and it stacks forever, had to be replaced

-The legendary weapon effect "Staggering" will now cause stagger upon dealing a critical hit instead of randomly

-Increased the noise radius of the Tactical Distraction Can

-Removed the screen effect from flamer flames impacting nearby
-Made the screen effect from taking damage very slightly less intense
-Reworked how companions deal less damage, they will now deal less damage via a generic perk they all share instead of their unique weapons dealing less damage
^this was mostly done to prevent Strong from being OP as hell with melee weapons
-Companions will all deal less damage than before, they shouldn't be able to fight your fights for you, especially since they're immortal

-Very slightly reduced the physical and energy damage of the plasma gun

-Fixed a vanilla bug where Angler spit would apply molotov cocktail burn instead of the intended angler burn
-Fixed a vanilla bug where Cait's companion perk "Trigger Rush" was not working correctly, it actually only added an itty bitty 8.3% bonus regen rate, now it's properly 50% as intended

• Overhauled combat with fierce aggressive enemies that will challenge you from beginning to end. • Painstakingly balanced NPC stats that makes the game never feel too easy or too hard at appropriate levels. • Health works differently, both for you and everything around you. You start with 100HP and every additional point of Endurance grants 20 HP, levels will do nothing for health. • Healing works differently, food will heal you slowly over time and stimpaks heal a fixed amount of health and limb damage while the new med-tek bandages are much more effective at healing limb damage. • Weapons all follow more generic guidelines, balanced primarily around caliber types and nearly universal damage modifications which makes almost every gun viable at any point with the right upgrades. • New chems, like Second Wind, Antivenom, Cat Eye, Truffle Mentats or Relaxing Herb Cigar, and many vanilla chems have been rebalanced as well. There is also a cure for the infamous molerat disease, craftable once you contract it. • New perks and rebalanced vanilla perks. New ones like Critical Thinker, Shotgun Surgeon, Rad Child or Luck o' the Irish. Extra notable examples are perks like; Finesse which can change how you play and what equipment you go after by richly rewarding you for having very low armor values. Intimidation which works every time when you catch your target by surprise up close, making it a perfect perk for stealthy characters. Pain Train which works outside of power armor, allowing you to play ultra-aggressive. Robotics Expert which will additionally allow you to hack turrets the same way you can hack robots. • Optional custom basic sorting system with alterations to item name structures which will always show you the name of the item first and any modifications after, sorts everything in the game other than Misc and Junk items. (Sorting those items opens a very big can of worms for mods that need a compatibility patch) • Player killmove immunity, no more getting locked into a death cutscene even though you were at full health. • New equipment like many new grenades, turret-spawning relays, and weapon attachments like Napalmer, Miss Launcher, Thermobaric Warhead Launcher or Plasma Bomber. • Restored cut content, like the Space Blaster, revolver fanning, throwing weapons like Throwing Blades or Throwing Hatchets and many types of gloves that can be worn with almost any outfit and come with custom upgrades. • Random critical hits based on Luck and a couple of perks. • Real projectiles where bullets physically fly through the air with ballistics loosely based on real statistics, laser weapons fire bolts similar to laser guns from your favorite cheesy sci-fi movies. • Difficult stealth, unless you invest into stealthy perks you will be detected very easily and enemies won't give up their search so fast. Stealth Boys will help you greatly, especially outdoors during daytime. There are a few new items to help you become a better sneaky snake, like throwable distraction items, stealth boys that last 2 minutes or throwing weapons that benefit from melee sneak attack multipliers. • Optional live dismemberment on humans and supermutants, only works with high caliber weaponry and explosives which may cause enemies to flee in terror or perform a last ditch effort on the ground. (Enabled through the miscellaneous file Punisher) • Lunchboxes explode into a small pile of random loot with a massive list of potential items or even a bunch of caps, no $1.99 key required! • New legendary effects, like Shocking, Bloodthirsty or Denting. Also rebalances almost all vanilla legendary effects to either be less overpowered or a lot more useful. • Fast and deadly melee combat both for humanoids and creatures. • Uncapped encounter zones. • More scarce loot in general, for example you may not always find enough ammo to endlessly use your favorite gun, vary your weapon usage or get trading for supplies. • More difficult bartering, don't expect to be able to buy everything you see! • More difficult lockpicking, requires gentle fiddling to find the sweetspot but your picks will break much more slowly. (Misc file to revert lockpicking to vanilla exists if you don't like this) • New workshop turrets, like Minigun Turret, Electro-Bubble Turret, Napalm Turret or Alien Animatronic Turret. • Tweaked armor with altered effectiveness, modifications and more reasonable usage slots, meaning you can for example equip a gas mask with an army helmet. • Improved locational damage, shooting heads and mechanical weak spots inflict more damage than before while limbs and heavily armored spots inflict less damage. • Areas reset plenty slower than vanilla, which means places you've already cleared out won't respawn with new enemies and loot quite as fast, but it does not affect random spawns in the world at all. • Minutemen can be called in with flares from much further away and they will show up to fight in armor instead of clothing. • Some light sources have been tweaked to provide more reasonable light, usually resulting in wider and softer light, there's a gif in the images section. • Carry weight starts higher and improves more with Strength, catered for all your garbage-carrying needs. • Improvements to the workshop, you can create trading routes by default, powerlines can reach much further, radial power sources are more powerful, and more. • Some enemy types are different from each other, for example bug types tend to be much more squishy but very fast and agile, ghouls deal very little damage but can be hard to take out in big groups while dealing radiation and poison damage, synths are fast and super-aggressive but have weak limbs, and robots tend to be both powerful and tanky but fairly slow. • Many more smaller tweaks here and there that I couldn't clutter up this list with, play and find out!
Damage multipliers have been altered a bit to fit UFO better:
Compatibility: -Weapon mods will not be compatible without a patch, be careful as they can easily ruin the intended balance otherwise -Armor/clothing mods will not be compatible, unless they are purely cosmetic they will have much higher armor ratings than any other items in the game -Power Armor mods will require a patch to work properly, they will work without a patch but they will have slightly too powerful stats and wont receive health & crafting alterations -Survival Mode related mods should be fine if you load them after the overhaul -Food & Healing mods will not be compatible without a patch, healing rates will be very wrong -Companion mods will be compatible, no companion records have been altered directly, recommend loading them before the overhaul anyways -NPC mods will be incompatible, they will most likely have too much health and their levels won't scale to get better gear over time -Weapon Skin mods should all be compatible if you load them before the overhaul, every equippable weapon has the changes necessary to support skins If you have any doubts about any other kind of mod, load them before the overhaul, this is a good idea for any overhaul out there.
