📋 About This Mod

The metro system of the Commonwealth has always struck me as rather strange - instead of using a more traditional set of trains, the system copies the Monorail featured along the bottom of the highway system on the surface. However, when I eventually came across Strider5's Metro Railcar Modder's Resource, I fell in love, and decided to put them into the game myself in my first mod project for Fallout 4.

What this mod specifically does is visibly remove the original monorail cars - they're still present far below the map - and replace them with the previously mentioned metro train model. Precombined meshes and visibility have been regenerated, and are packed into a BA2 Archive format. Everything should be in working order, but keep in mind that support for this mod has been canceled in favor of working on a newer, more comprehensive project regarding the Boston Metro System.

This mod is incompatible with any other mods that regenerate PreCombines and Previs Data for any of the vanilla subway stations. Mods that only add new content to these stations without affecting PreCombines will function as long as this mod is loaded after them.

Additional patches for the official Vault-Tec Workshop DLC, Better Third Rail, and TU3SD4Y's Metro Oberland are available in the optional files. As previously mentioned, further official support has been canceled. Unfortunately, this means there will not be an official patch made for Subway Runner, though I have no qualms with other mod authors stepping up to the plate.

Thank you to Strider5 for creating the metro train model used in this mod; RougeUnicorn00 for informing me of several issues the mod originally had, as well as assisting a very inexperienced AnomNom in converting to an ESL-Flagged ESP file; and Kaliban71 for running me through the process of cleaning up a mod file with FO4Edit. Additionally, I would like to thank all of you who decided to used my mod - it was the first project for Fallout 4 I had ever done, and I learned much while I worked on it, so your support over the last three or so years has meant a lot to me.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you use a mod manager like Vortex or NMM, install this mod through it to avoid manual file placement issues.

  • Since it's a model replacer, it should work with most texture mods, but test in a save near a metro entrance to confirm.
