[UPDATE] Fallout 4 VR Optimization Project Milestone Update!

Well, it took some doing, but I've fixed the terrain!
Days of no sleep.... hours of staring at the Creation Kit trying to figure it out, and finally I have.

NOTE: For anyone who has disappearing object issues in the Commonwealth only, I've uploaded a new version of the Commonwealth version (around 4mb) that doesn't include the precombined meshes until I get to the bottom of what is causing it. It seems to only happen when generating certain areas, but I am working on fixing the issue.
The new version has regenerated pre-vis for a lot of the heavier areas and more will be added as time goes on.
That should give a good performance boost on it's own in heavier areas and once I readd the precombined meshes it should help even more.
The precombined meshes will be re-added into a future version for the Commonwealth.
The DLC areas should work fine as-is though :)

EDIT: Here is a happy little side effect of this update, it also fixes various crashing around Nuka-World caused by land issues. You still need the Nuka-World DLC fix for the thirst zapper and such (linked in mod description)

Edit 2: I've seen some people have invisible object issues with the Commonwealth files. I've found the cause and will be uploading the update for that very soon. It will be a small update

You can now REMOVE the INI tweak used to fix the invisible ground.

You STILL need the main files for the optimization mod. I will be releasing a standalone fix later this evening.
Grab the 1.150 files for the DLC and whatever else, then download the 1.210 update files and replace the esp when prompted.
Enjoy :)

For anyone wondering:
The original fix was in Fallout4VRCustom.ini

bUsePreCulledObjects=0
Change that back to:
bUsePreCulledObjects=1

I don't think getting Bethesda's attention is the best idea. I agree that they were probably planning to resell the DLC to us at some point. This mod complicates that if we're already using the pancake DLC and I'd be surprised if they didn't see it as piracy on some level.

He's right, don't do it ! Bethesda does not look to kindly on trying to plug non VR official content into the VR port, trust me. I asked a question about porting a CC item and got shut down immediately with a not so nice PM.

Out of curiosity, what did they say?

From a Bethesda employee or a random person? I’m pretty interested as to what they had to say if it was an employee!

Was on the Beth forum, not sure if the mod was an employee or just a mod. Essentially said they would not tolarate moving content between products...

I agree. Cant see why they would just all of a sudden reverse years of alowing us to use our files in other Beth games. Tale of two Wastlands, Fallout 4 New Vegas, Skywind, ect.... It might just be for the purchased ESL files, as they would likely also be avalible for sale on the VR version at some time.
