Now that F4SE Team repaired keyboard keys binding it is time to take for the UI and INI.
A couple useful settings for INI files.

Originally I wrote this guide on AFK Forum 27 November 2015
Note this guide requires reading ability with understanding what you have read.
Please note that English is not my native language.


What can you expect here:

- In time, there will be more
- You will find here settings that are not present in INI files or can not be changed using Fallout4Launcher.exe
- All setings have been tested
- They have default values
- Most of the settings explains itself (self explanatory by the variable name)
- Work for game version 1.10.64

What you will never find here:

- uGridsToLoad Setings and etc...
- Settings to manage game memory and etc...
- And all other setings which leads to the instability of the game

Everything you put in Fallout4Custom.ini will overwrite everything that is in Fallout4.ini
List of variables that will not be overwritten by Fallout4Custom.ini (Credits go to DoubleYou)

You can overwrite Fallout4.ini and Fallout4Custom.ini using INI for modification.

How to check that it works as I wrote?

ArchiveInvalidation!

This allows you to place anything as "Loose Files" in ...Data\
Now all SWF files work without a problem, even font swapping is not a problem now. (Meshes, Tekstures, Strings, etc...)
And most importantly loading time decreases drastically compared to the "old" method, if you are using a large amount of "Loose Files".

There is no need to add:

, TEXTURES\, MUSIC\, SOUND\, INTERFACE\, MESHES\, PROGRAMS\, MATERIALS\, LODSETTINGS\, VIS\, MISC\, SCRIPTS\, SHADERSFX\, VIDEO\

in to:

[Archive]
sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\

Just add this variable in to INI for "Loose Files" to work.

It allows you to position the game screen on the monitor in the window mode.
You have a 1080p monitor, but a weak graphics card. It is better to run the game at a lower resolution than 1080.
But then either we are stretching for example 900p -> 1080p this gives a deplorable consequences, causing everything looks ugly and blurry.
It is better to run the game in window mode but then the game window will be in the corner of the screen and without the use of third-party applications there nothing we can do.
