📋 About This Mod

The russian description is here. Русское описание мода тут.

I am not playing the game now so I assume the mod may have conflicts with newest versions of Fallout 4.  I guess I'll be back to work on the modification after the hardcore mode from Bethesda will be released.

The main purpose of the mod - make the game more challenging but not too boring.  It reduces amount of loot and ammo you can find in the world of Fallout 4 ("How could there be so much stuff after so many years of looting by raiders and scavengers.."). Also you can install different options that:

  • []change the drop rate of legendary items from legendary enemies (make your life harder but not hardcore),  []reduce the production of resources in your settlement (now become THE KING of the Boston Wasteland is not so easy),  []make your crops to grow for several days (instant crop ripening is nonsense!),   []increase the number of resources and perk requirements needed to construct serious production objects in your settlements (otherwise why are all these settlers so stupid to make it themselves?),
  • and more else (see "Optional esps" part of the description).
Vanilla was just an easy walk? Try to survive now.

P. S. See "Recommended mods" list at the bottom of the page to rebalance and improve aspects of the gameplay that are not changed by my mod.

Thank you for your comments! I read all of them. Since English is not my native language it takes a lot of time to answer your comments and so sometimes I cant do it quickly. But I always take them into account.

New: 1. 83 Added Weapon Balance Overhaul v. 1. 4. 1 compatibility patch (see in "Optional files" on the Nexus). 1. 82 Harder Enemies 0. 75: Added the flag "Calculate from all levels <= PC's level" to NPC leveled lists that didnt have it before (some types of supermutants, synths and others) except "legendary" and "boss" lists. So levels of these enemies should  be in "all levels" range now (Earlier they all were always the highest lvl (more correct in a small range near a player level)). The plugin is still considered as experimental. 1. 8 upd New file was uploaded incorrectly. Fixed. 1. 8 Started using FO4Edit scripting now! New option - "Harder Enemies". See the description below.

1. 72 The value of bobby pin increased 5 times. Added "decorative" junk into

  • Check the mod's forum posts or comments for user reports on compatibility with your DLC or other popular mods.
