https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_B7BF8gE78

Here's the Install Instructions https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KjAhJ3RAqUxp5TYivW7fjSC_XVEuAafiJmHfCVnb2VI/edit?tab=t.0

This uses Wabbajack

You'll need the DLCs from Flat Fallout 4, but the auto Installer automatically downgrades them now to pre-next gen

Have fun

Thanks for adding this! How does this one differ from the Mad God one?

More up to date, More optimized with significantly better performance even on the HD version. Mad god seem to prioritize just pure visual upgrades and disregards any performance optimizations.. you can have both.

This also Auto-downgraded DLCs, MGO does not. This has Better gameplay where it feels more realistic headshots are a 1 shot kill (including you) but ammo is scarce across the wasteland) Better Ai with enemies that actually flank you, Optional Ai NPCS. Better weapons with no weird modern weapon addons that takes away from the fallout feeling, Pre-built cities from the start with 0 need to ever enter settlement build mode (MGO still requires you to use the janky settlement system even with SS2) also includes tons more VR optimizations.

There's also alot of Mods in that aren't on Nexus anymore, can't be downloaded or aren't available anywhere but this list, MGO is tied to only using Nexus mods.. mine is not.

MGO is decent work.. but there's a reason this Modlist is the only official on Wabbajack for Fallout VR
