📋 About This Mod
Description
I find the speed that the text on the terminal screens takes to appear is too slooooooooow, I always find myself just clicking to get it all to show up. So I've increased it by 2, 3, 5, 10, 20 and 100 times, just download whichever file suits your needs.
Unzip and place the ESP in your Fallout data folder, then either add it to your Plugins.txt file manually, or use one of the growing number of managers that have been uploaded here.
For version 2. 0, I've rebuilt the ESPs with the new FO4Edit, still not an official 1st party tool, but maybe better than using the version of TES5Edit/FNVEdit/FO3Edit that existed before Fallout 4's release, which is what I used for version 1. 0
And for version 3. 0, all the plugins have been made in the Official Creation Kit.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (47k endorsements, 1.7M downloads) — this is a must-have for anyone tired of waiting on terminal text.
- Does exactly what it says: speeds up terminal displays with no extra fluff.
- Lightweight and likely compatible with most setups since it's a simple tweak.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016 — may not be compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or DLC.
- No detailed description or install instructions provided by the author.
- Only affects terminal text speed — if you're looking for broader UI improvements, this won't cover them.
For Fallout 4 players who spend a lot of time reading terminals and want to cut down on waiting. If you're a completionist who reads every log, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you're fine with the default speed or want more comprehensive UI overhauls.
