FO4 Faster HDT-SMP

ZyHnCKQk78o

Vibe-coded Fallout 4 port of Faster HDT-SMP (based on 3. 30)

Refer to Skyrim documents for xml setup as the features are exactly the same.

How to setup nif

Add NiStringExtraData (not NiString"s"ExtraData) and give name: HDT Skinned Mesh Physics Object

Specify path to the xml in String Data. It can be a relative path from Data/ like Meshes\armors\your_armor\physics.xml or simply a xml file name, and you can place it under Data/F4SE/Plugins/FO4FasterHdtSMP too.

SMP Previewer

You can also use SMP Previewer to preview the physics behavior outside the game.

In-game Visualization and Debugging

configs.xml in F4SE/Plugins/FO4FasterHdtSMP has some useful settings for debugging and performance.

Set enableBulletVisualization to true and restart the game to activate in-game visualization.

Set logLevel to 4 and restart the game to make it log some useful info when it stops working.

You can check the log from <My Documents>/My Games/Fallout 4/F4SE/FO4FasterhdtSMP.log
