It's no secret that there have been strange happenings in the Commonwealth recently. Random kidnappings, assassination attempts, and other horrible deeds are being committed by a mysterious AI threat. And you've just become his next target. While not much is known about this AI or why he's performing these deeds, one thing is for sure -  he is building an army.

In James' Ruin, you and your allies will embark on an unforgettable journey that will take you to a number of new locations both inside and outside the Commonwealth. You and your allies will travel by land, air, and sea to reach your ultimate destination: Willoughby Island. It is there where you will discover the truth behind the mystery of Project Dolly, a mysterious cloning program.


This mod adds...
  • 11 new quests
  • 5 new companions
  • A large cast of characters, both new and old, with over 1200 lines of voiced dialogue
  • A number of small exterior worldspaces to explore, including a graveyard, a dam, and an island!
  • Several unique boss fights that push the limits of Fallout 4
  • At least two aliens

Getting Started:
  • When the mod is loaded, you will receive a message that will point you toward Douglass Caverns, located east of Recon Bunker Theta.
  • James' Ruin features a number of intense combat sequences and challenging boss fights that may prove too difficult for lower-level characters. In addition, after a certain point, you will not be able to return to the Commonwealth until you have completed the mod, which could result in weaker characters getting "trapped" in new areas.
  • Recommended Level: 25+

Requirements:
  • Base Fallout 4 Game
  • It is strongly recommended, but NOT REQUIRED to have played most/all of my previous Fallout 4 quest mods before playing this mod, as this mod builds upon the story of all of my previous mods.
  • Recommended Play Order: James' Journey > The Whitman Family Fallout Shelter > Outlaws of the Commonwealth > Cade and Kelan - A Tale of Two Twins > Saxon's Cobras > James' Ruin
  • If you want to jump right in, you will find character profiles and a summary of the story up to this point on a holotape you receive upon loading the mod.

Support:
  • I am committed to releasing bug fixes for this mod as necessary. I will be providing long-term support for this mod and will strive to maintain communication with all users and promptly fix bugs.
  • All bug reports and feedback are welcome.
  • If you enjoyed the mod, please leave a comment letting me know what you enjoyed about it. If not, please let me know how I can improve in the future. I am always looking for constructive feedback so I can create the best experience possible.

Incompatibilities:
  • This mod shouldn't have any incompatibilities with other mods, unless they greatly modify vanilla areas used in this mod. I took care to modify as few vanilla locations as possible during this mod's development.

  • Fixed landscape LOD not being visible from far away
  • Fixed pip-boy world map images not appearing
