📋 About This Mod
I kept getting actor crashes with raiders spawned by the game, and a particular raider in Revere Beach Station. Through a lot of deductive thinking and experimentation, I found the culprit to be the Raider Harnessed Metal Container backpack. Sometimes I couldn't even get into Revere without crashing, sometimes I could get in but I would crash when the raider with the backpack was visible, sometimes I could kill the raider and go into it's inventory and then I'd crash.
I got super lucky getting a screenshot of the bugged backpack because most of the time I spawned it I crashed immediately.
With further investigation and some luck, I found that the materials needed for this backpack were corrupted, and figured out how to fix them.
The FO4VR tag is simply because I play in VR, but this doesn't have anything to do with VR and the fix will be compatible with pancake PC fallout too.
