It was a long, long wait for Playstation 4 owners to finally get in on the wasteland modding action, and when it arrived, Fallout 4 fans weren't exactly pleased by the extra limitations above and beyond what's found on the Xbox One edition. Even now, months after mods have been available, the number of PS4 entries continues to lag far behind what's on tap over on the other side of the console. I currently own Fallout 4 on PS4 and would love to make some mods for it. I do not own it on PC. And do yourself a favor, read up on and learn the limitations of PS4 mods. Literally 80% of what mod authors can do is flat-out impossible to do within Sony's insane, draconian restrictions. Help Reddit App Reddit coins Reddit premium Reddit.

Bethesda's post-apocalyptic RPG became the first game on Xbox One to utilize mods on console. Mods are a coup for Xbox One users who want to alter their game, and there are mods for practically everything. There are so many to go through, so it can be hard to know where to start. We've compiled a comprehensive list of the most rewarding, interesting and weird mods available.Any mods requiring additional content and DLC will say so.You'll need to a make a Bethesda account to access the mods which you can do from within the game on your Xbox.Note: Achievements are disabled while mods are active.THE BIG ONE - Cheat Mode Ultimate Holotape Menu.

When someone speaks to you in the Commonwealth, you're given options of a couple of words for each dialogue choice. This mod stacks the dialogue options in full, so you can see in advance what your choices are and what the full response will be.

This makes the dialogue options more in keeping with how they were in Fallout 3. The mod will also display the 'tone' of the choice, so if you're hoping to give a snappy response, it'll be clearly displayed with a 'tonal inflection' — no more accidental sarcastic responses to people you need to butter up. Green in the Commonwealth. Adds a boost of much-needed color to the Commonwealth environments. You could argue that after 200 years since the nuclear bombs dropped, at least some of the grass and leaves would probably have grown back in that time.The Commonwealth is bleak and desolate much of the time, and Green in the Commonwealth adds extra greenery textures; including flowers, lush bushes, and plants.

This mod is aesthetic only but certainly does add a level of immensity that some felt was lacking before. Stronger Workshop Defensesadds a lot stronger defense items to your workshop menus, and the great thing is, it requires no additional perks. If your survivor bases are suffering, you can throw down some insane turrets which will rip through any raiders that come knocking. Scrap EverythingIt's a little irritating when you're trying to build a settlement for survivors, and there are things that you can't remove to add one more desperately needed power generator. With you can remove almost everything. If you wanted to strip a settlement to the bare rock and build from the bottom upwards, you can.

Beantown Interiors Project - Requires Far Harbor DLC. This gun does exactly what it says on the tin. It's a gun, that you can use to travel to otherwise unreachable areas. Is there something hiding on top of that building?

Whip out your, take aim and fire to instantly move to the target. Planning on picking a pocket? Use your gun to create a quick getaway. Being chased by a Randy Savage Deathclaw (see below)? Use the gun for instant evasion!

Or maybe you're over-encumbered and you've been looting the abandoned homes of the Commonwealth. Your pockets are full to bursting, and you just can't move. The gun solves this problem too! Dauntless - Submarine Player Home - Requires Far Harbor DLC.

Oh my word, this mod is macabre. If you want to inject a creepy and morbid vibe to your game, this mod adds a horror questline based on real cannibals and serial killers. Lurching off the standard quest path, this mod includes puzzles that will need the player to move things around and search for clues in a creepy basement. Companions are made to wait outside (the mod creator states this is because there isn't room for the player in amongst everything surrounding you) making this mod one of the eeriest and unsettling to play. And it's twisted to boot!

This power armor, inspired by the Big Daddies in Bioshock is totally kick-ass. It increases your carry weight, boosts your movement speed, and can even go underwater. Further to this, is has a cool lamp that comes in different colors to light up the depths. While there is one Power Armor set, it has different helmets that represent the different types of Daddies in Bioshock. It's a tank in human clothing.

The Wild Wastelandwas a trait from Fallout New Vegas that made exploration a little more unpredictable. Remember the 'Indiana Jones Found Dead in a Refridgerator' moment from New Vegas? That was down to The Wild Wasteland trait which brings random encounters and events, as well as odd items and easter eggs. This trait isn't in Fallout 4, but a mod has been made to emulate it. Bottles, bottles everywhere and not a drop to drink. This is a cool and interesting mod. The Commonwealth is stuffed with empty Nuka Cola bottles, and beyond scavenging them for glass materials, they're pretty useless.

What if you could fill them back up with that life giving Nuka nectar? Now you can, with the! Drop it into one of your settlements, ensure it's powered sufficiently, and fill away. The machine takes a bottle and a bottlecap and fills the bottle up with that sweet life giving liquid. Dark Husky DogmeatDogmeat again, I can't get enough of this pixellated pooch.

This time, you can retexture him into a. The mod doesn't do anything else. It just gives him a fresh look! Real Nights with Real Lights.

ByIt was a long, long wait for Playstation 4 owners to finally get in on the wasteland modding action, and when it arrived, fans weren't exactly pleased by the extra limitations above and beyond what's found on the Xbox One edition.Even now, months after mods have been available, the number of PS4 entries continues to lag far behind what's on tap over on the other side of the console fence. Sadly, due to the restrictive nature of what's allowed on console mods, it's unlikely we're going to get an epic total conversion like you'd see on the PC.The lack of space and inability to add in huge new assets just won't allow for such major changes to the base game. Don't let that kill your enthusiasm for PS4 modding entirely though, as there's still several overhaul mods that significantly change up the Fallout 4 experience on the Playstation platform.Over the next several slides we cover some of the best of the best in PS4 overhaul mods that you should be trying out immediately. Unified Clothing OverhaulFor a change in the game's aesthetics and how you can make your character look while stomping across the Commonwealth, this is the mod that should unquestionably be downloaded straight away.The UCO mod completely opens up the clothing opportunities, allowing you to craft essentially any outfit you can imagine while still have the benefits of armor. If it's something that appears in the game anywhere on any NPC, you can now equip it as your outfit.Don't like how your current armor looks but prefer its stats? No problem, with UCO you can make exterior clothing invisible, so the defensive qualities remain while the cosmetics are shifted to whatever style you prefer underneath.

Overgrowth Forest OverhaulLike a much more invasive and complete version of the Simple Green mod (see the next slide), this Overgrowth offering turns most areas of the Commonwealth into a much more verdant forest.It makes the entire Fallout 4 experience less dreary and empty-seeming, with vegetation overtaking the Boston area long after the radiation has subsided 200+ years after the bombs first dropped. The color scheme is probably the most frequently sited visual problem with the modern Fallout games, and mods like this handily take care of that concern. Wacky Weapons WorkshopThe lack of external assets really hampers weapon mods on the PS4, but one forward-thinking player put together something really interesting just by changing how weapons can be crafted.Now you can put together just about any combination imaginable - including some that really shouldn't exist, like adding a fatman launcher to a revolver.

Who doesn't want to launch nukes from their handgun?The mod also lets you manually add in multiple legendary effects to a wackified weapon, allowing you to craft some truly outrageous guns and melee weapons without having to kill legendary monsters and hope you randomly get something good.Remember seeing some of the and laughing at how ridiculous some combos could become? Get ready for that, in weapon form.

Scrap That SettlementHaving primarily played Fallout 4 on the PC, it didn't occur to me until seeing this mod that console players are still having to deal with Bethesda's terrible settlement system in its original form. My sincerest apologies, console peons, because that sounds like a real bummer.If you want more control over how your settlements look, this very nifty mod lets you scrap almost everything - grass, rocks, bodies, and all sorts of objects that weren't originally scrappable.New versions of this mod are slated to land soon that will allow you to scrap whole creatures and structures as well. Zombie WalkersThe feral ghouls in the Fallout universe have always flirted with being zombies, but they never quite go the whole way there. Putting you in an episode of The Walking Dead (or any given classic zombie flick), this overhaul mod takes ghouls and makes them into a shambling horde of the living dead.Unfortunately, this PS4 version is a bit stripped down from the PC mod of the same name, but it still gets the job done for console players. Feral ghouls are renamed to zombies, sprinting is disabled, and health is modified so that head shots appropriately take them out. A few animations are also tweaked as well for more of a horror feel.These modified ghoul zombies also come in big herds that you don't want to get caught in!

Needless to say, this pretty drastically changes the feel and tone of a Fallout 4 playthrough. Hiding under a dumpster won't keep you safe here. Plenty 'O ExplorationThis is an overhaul mod that fans have to put together every time a new Bethesda entry arrives, especially in the Fallout universe.

You'd think eventually the developer would get on this without the players having to do it.The game maps are always huge, with tons of areas to explore, but then you arrive at a specific location and most of the buildings and hallways can't be accessed and are just cosmetic. Whether doors that can't be opened or piles of rubble blocking your way, there's a distinct lack of indoor exploration.Fallout 4's rendition of this perennially needed fix, Plenty 'O Exploration, is currently in beta for PS4, but still provides a drastically needed service by adding in many new interior segments for a huge increase in the amount of area actually available to explore.
