About this mod

You can now switch bUseCombinedObjects ON or OFF ingame. So you can have Lush Countrysides with trees mods that need combined objects to be turned off without killing your cities fps by enabling bUsecombinedObjects back.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Combined objects Ingame Toggle.

Like the title says, this mod give you the chance to change your ini parametre "bUseCombinedObjects" while ingame.

Why ?

Well, if you're like me, you want to have a lush contryside with one of the popular mods that add trees, foliage etc ... but unfortunatly, thoses mods want you to turn off the bUseCombinedObjects to work ... and that gives a huge fps drop in cities.

Now, with this mod, you can choose if you want this bUseCombinedObject variable to be on 1 or 0 when you're ingame !

How this work ?

It use the great FO4 Hotkeys mod( https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11664 ) to run some consoles commands.

By default O is for activating Combined Objects ( Best for Cities ), P is for disabling it ( Best for countryside ).

But, once you press the button, you must run into a game loadscreen for the value to be read again by the engine.

So, if you're in countryside and want to teleport in city, press the O button to change the value in your computer ram and then Teleport ! During the loadscreen the engine will load the right value.

If you forgot to press the button before teleportation, don't panic, make a savegame, return to main menu ( that's very important, if you just reload the save without going to main menu first, it may not work and some glitches can appear ) to force the engine to read all the values before loading the savegame.

How to install ?

Install first FO4 Hotkeys and then put the 2 lines i give you in the .txt in the [hotkeys] section of the "hotkey.ini" file in your data folder.

It looks tedious, why not making a script that detect cities and then load the right value instead of that crap ?

Well i tried, with no luck. It seems that when you change the ini value with a papyrus script, it doesn't make any effect... and since it's not possible to shoot console commands with scripts, i'm blocked. I tried different ways without succes.
If someone find a better way to change the value on the fly in game : be my guest ! ;).
