📋 About This Mod
Clean Water of the Commonwealth
Notice: Clean Water is no longer being developed or supported! I am allowing Clean Water to remain active so long as Bethesda doesn't do anything that directly breaks Clean Water. I wanted to move on to other waters that are not "Clean" and have thus created... Wasteland Water Revival
Clean Water of the Commonwealth aims to revamp the water system in Fallout 4.
Information: Three levels of Radiation!
- []No Radiation, removes all radiation poison from swimming, wading, and drinking water. []Standard Radiation, default radiation levels. []Extra Radiation, survival not hard core enough? Even more radiation from swimming in and drinking water.
- []Clean, standard water. []Clear, cleans up the water making it twice as clear as normal. []Crystal, super clean water making it unrealistically crystal clear.
- Tropical, the totally awesome tropical flavor water, making water clear.
Compatibility:
Compatible with mods that alter Water Textures.
Not compatible with mods that alter Water Data.
Performance:
No impact on frame rate. The game engine already draws everything that's underwater and then covers it up with water.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community favorite with 24,624 endorsements and nearly 900k downloads
- Gives you control over water radiation, letting you tailor difficulty or remove annoyance
- Multiple visual styles to match your taste, from realistic to tropical
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so may have compatibility issues with newer DLC or mods
- Visual overhaul only — no gameplay changes beyond radiation tweaks
For Fallout 4 players who want cleaner, prettier water without overhauling the whole game. Also for survivalists who want radiation to be more punishing or less annoying. Skip if you're looking for gameplay overhauls — this is purely cosmetic with radiation toggles.
