📋 About This Mod
BOOM!!!
This mod doubles the Force, the Size and the Damage of every single explosion in game. So everything from grenades and mines, to things like head explosions! Oh, and don't forget Nukes. Yeah, Mini-Nukes aren't so mini anymore.
OPTIONAL FILES NormalDamage - Damage value is at stock levels. Force and Visual effects are doubled. VisualsOnly - Damage and Force are at stock levels. Only Visuals effected. FatmanOnly - Damage, Force and Visuals doubled ONLY for the Fatman. Nothing else is changed.
INSTALLATION Install like any other mod: Mod Manager is HIGHLY recommended and does everything for you Otherwise, extract your chosen version to your data folder "\Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 4\Data" and make sure you are set up to use mods.
CHANGELOG V1 - Double Force, Size and Damage for all explosion types.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community favorite with over 4,200 endorsements and 173k downloads
- Exactly what it says: every explosion is twice as big, strong, and damaging
- One-file install, no dependencies, works with any load order
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015 — may not be compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or DLC
- Doubling all explosions can make the game trivial and may cause performance issues with many effects
- No configuration options — you can't tweak the multiplier or exclude certain explosions
For Fallout 4 players who want over-the-top, cinematic explosions and feel vanilla mini-nukes are underwhelming. Skip if you prefer balanced combat or need compatibility with the latest game version.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod is from 2015, check if it works with your game version; if not, look for a similar updated mod.
- Make a save before installing so you can revert if the explosion size causes performance issues.
- If you use a mod manager, install it manually by dropping the file into your Data folder and enabling it in your load order.
