I have a couple of big mods I'm trying to finish in 2023 and I will post screenshots and more information about those mods when they are closer to release, join my Discord server for more information and to be notified when I release new mods. Simply Better Weather v10.2 & v11.2 have been released for preview.
Most of my mods received a minor update 16/12/2022, the main reason for this update to was to allow you to install multiple versions / options of the mods at the same time so that you can switch between the versions whenever you like. Some files had to be renamed in order to accomplish this but this will not effect your save games. All of my mods can be installed/uninstalled or swapped out at any time without harming your save games. All files are ESL flagged .esp's (except Puddle Remover Plus), these files can edited and sorted by load order but do not use an ESP plugin slot. I am no longer creating ESP or Loose files versions of my mods because there is no performance or compatibility improvements to be gained by using them. FYI: Fallout 4 and Skyrim Special Edition can have up to 253 ESP (Full) and 4096 ESL (Light) plugins installed at the same time.
If you want to say "Thanks" for this mod press the "Endorse" button at the top of the page, it's appreciated.

Tips & Common Sense:
Before you install any mod or make any changes to your game, you should back up your save games and/or relevant files. I recommend zipping up your My Games\Fallout4 folder and labeling and dating that zip file as part of your backups. Then thoroughly test the mod / changes before you add any other mods or advance the game.C:\Users\YOUR NAME\Documents\My Games\Fallout4This creates a backup of your "Saves" folder, your Fallout4.ini, Fallout4Pref.ini and your Fallout4Custom.ini if you have one.
Use FO4Edit to easily view the changes made by a mods ESP/ESL/ESM, check for compatibility, resolve conflicts, est.
If this mod does not fit your play-style or if you simply don't like it, don't use it, no one is asking you to.

i just want to know where i can find the instruction. For example i want to set a walking speed but i dont want to type the console command "player.forceav speedmult XXX " every time I start a new game,what should i do to ini?
Hi there Loving these kinds of things you modders do. I much prefer to edit an ini [reminds me of windows 98 :D ] than to add a mod to the list. Anyhow, was wondering. Are all of the edits mentioned in the description? I ask because if that is the case I can just copy and paste the ones I want. If there are more. Do you give descriptions of their functions some place as to what they do? Thanks for your time :)
Thank you. I feel kind of stupid as I did down load and see that that was indeed the case. However I do believe we both know someone else is going to ask this so I left it as is. And your prompt and concise reply is great. Anyhow, thanks for the swift reply. I look forward to having fun with this
These work great! Thanks. I didn't have any issues with the previous version because I already had a bat file that auto-runs when starting the game and I just added the console commands that I wanted to it, it has saved me some mod space so I really appreciate it. I'd be really interested in hearing about any future useful combinations you find or already know about. I am looking for two in particular. I'd like to be able to change the "lift strength"/whatever the game calls it that allows me to pick up certain objects and not others that are also moveable, like dead bodies in power armor or large creatures and skeletons. I'm not sure if this is doable via commands or edits though. Another one I want is to modify the sprint speed (not the run speed but the boost to it when you hold down shift). Power Armor legs have a mod that can increase the speed of the sprint but I don't know what command determines the default speed.
Hey Andy, Sry for the late reply, the real world has kept me away but I'll look into those tweaks your asking about and let you know what I discover. I'll send you a PM. Give me a few days to get back to you though.
I know this is a late reply, but I was offline the month of July. Excellent find Andy. I'll add that to the mod. Expect an update in the next few days.
Hey Glass1411, I just want to say thanks vm for ini file instructions, I'm a noob so this helped me get rid of 3 esps now that were doing a similar function. So as i am running 200+ mods any reduction in load order is much appreciated. I definitely have much respect to all you modders for sharing knowledge and time creating mods for us, endusers and making games a hell of alot more interesting, fun and enjoyble than their vanilla versions. Peace mdkmax
