This fixed many many of my crashes. I ran for a straight 5-6 hours of the mid teen levels exploring much of the south west and south eastern parts of the map, not a single crash...until I killed my first Womble and reached Peckham... Huge improvement however, it was crashing constantly before this, so big thanks for posting it. :)
10/10 guide! Deceptively easy (I did this with gog version), had it all running in under 5 minutes. I just added Buffout 4 + PluginPreloader, and all crashing has cleared up.
@@bamitscaitlinx just drag the 2 files from the preloader and drop in your main fallout 4 folder, i kept crashing until i added that preloader now its working perfectly
I skipped the XSE plugin, but can confirm that BUFFOUT4 fixed the train crash error on my steam deck. I’ll come back to install XSE if I encounter anymore, but looks great so far. Thank you so much!
oh man thank you. I couldn't figure out why I couldn't find explanations anywhere of which f4se version to install (2023 or next gen) & you're the first video to even say that it comes with it. I saw a whole different video where someone else had installed an extra f4se copy to their run folder and was doing it that way too
THANK YOU! I was pulling hair out, because of all my crashes.... Following your guide, made everything perfect at very smooth to play! And still no crashes! :D
HOLY SHIT!!!! After a WEEK of a bunch of useless videos that only broke my game. THIS WORKS!!!!! I've been playing for 3 hours with only 1 crash. Just WOW dude. You're amazing. You earned a sub
@@BesteWoGibt1979 it did that for me for about a week then doing this finally fixed it. You have to go into your pc files and delete EVERYTHING associated with fallout 4 before reinstalling. Goto your drive it was was installed all click steam, steam apps, common, then delete fallout 4 then goto your search bar and type %appdata% click enter it'll bring you to roaming then click app data on the top bar then there's a folder called local click this find fallout 4 delete it. Then it's ALL GONE then you can reinstall. Hope this helps
Top man totally works followed your easy step by step instructions so clear and to the point, I was getting fed up of crashing and was going to give up but you saved the day and now loving the game subscribed and thank you 👍🇬🇧
Secondary thank you: thanks for pointing out baka scrap heap and explaining the relationship between Buffout and Baka. I really don't know if the fix for everyone, but I ended up deleting it entirely and let Buffout 4 be the memory manager and its working so much better.
Works. Only issue I've had is the game freezing when I turned off my headset on the pause menu but obviously that's not because of anything shown here. Great, informative video
The version of XSE PluginPreloader you installed in the video is for the next gen update of Fallout 4. You should have scrolled down to the bottom of the "old files" list and installed version 0.2.5.1. Thanks for the video btw, helped me out!
@@timothybaptista2697 if you check the log file the 0.3 Plugin preloaders generates you can see that the 0.3 Plugin also does its work. Its not a f4se Plugin so it works over versions
Also, completely unrelated but helpful: I just realized I was playing on low settings this entire time. FOLON doesn't have a graphics settings menu. When you downgrade FO4 and install FOLON, if you immediately start playing FOLON without first running the base 4 launcher one time to set your graphics settings, it will default to low settings. I didn't know this and I didn't suspect anything was wrong because FOLON is a mod and no one knew what to expect. I thought it already looked fine. I accidentally started base FO4 today and I got a system prompt saying it couldn't detect my graphics card and was setting my graphics to default low settings. So I went to options, set my graphics to ultra, and restarted FOLON. The game looks amazing now. I can't believe I've been playing with low graphics this whole time lmao
Thank you i havent crashed in 1 hour so i think its safe to say this works , but i still had to launch trough gog galaxy or i had no voices and i had to edit falloutprefs to add the correct resolution after doing this . All in all thank you so much.
Very big thanks, Fizzle. This thing was crashing with no logs I could find. I likely deleted or screwed up the mod installs. Totally fixed through initial four quests.
After using highfps fix for loads and disabling "vsync in enb" plus "turning off animations during loading" and disabling "black screen during loading" now I load in 12 seconds to london from main menu and later 7 second to travel between london locations :D
im not sure how all these mods helped but wow, my game isnt crashing so far, if it does ill edit this message, but i really appreciated you my friend, def subbed haha, i can finally start the game now Also... Is it possible to add custom gun mods to this already heavily modded fallout london? cause i love having some more gun mods like i was using in my fallout 4 play through, just wondering is all, im playing on the GOG version by the way cause im too lazy to use vortex and mod everything lol
Thank you so much! I don't get the weapon debris option in the launcher though for some reason. I'll go with the weapon debris fix mod and see how it goes!
I mistakenly installed these files in my Fallout London folder rather than fallout 4 and they didn't work, but now that I've installed them in the Fallout 4 GOTY folder it's fixed the crashing and low fps issues I was getting with Fallout London. Thanks
OK, this fixed those random crashes, but I still can't reload my savegames made in St Paul's Cathedral area. It says "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION" All other saves are working.
Excited to try this. Was getting a lot of lengthy loading screens, no CTD though. Following the video as presented. Got to the part where you edit the config file. Only the extension on the file is TOML not HTML. Help what do I do now.
Goggled what TOML was and was able to edit the config file. Moved on to the next which was the Baka thing. that file is not even in the plugins folder. So just went ahead and started the game. got the FL loading screen, chose my last save and got a pop up box that said two FL files were missing. So start anyway just to see what happened and I started in the basement at the house in Sanctuary. Totally screwed up my game. Goin to uninstall.
I’m at the stage where I’ve installed it and then the F London intro appears, but the old starting quest… with Nate and Nora appears and the old game begins. Like what’s going on?
I don't have a bakascrapheap file at all in my GOG version but i'm going to do everything else and hope Does it matter I actually installed it before the Fallout? I made it past the train easily but it doesn't launch from the actual launcher
I'm not crashing but my game won't open. I downloaded Fallout London but there was some issues so I decided to uninstall and then reinstall my actual game to fix the downgrade. Now I can't play at all because "buffout 4 has loaded too late". Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Oddly enough, installing these mods have now made my game unable to load. Been sitting here for just about 25 minutes, and it's still loading. Even tried resetting my pc and everything, and besides the launch taking minutes to load, now the loading screens of the game itself are crazy long. Did I do something wrong? I'm very certain I followed the instructions exactly...
This seems like the way. Thanks man I am nearly there but fear i may have done things out of order. if I manually placed GOG contents into downgraded fallout 4 folder and then did all of these mods listed in the video. Am i ready or do i still have to launch GOG shortcut and install FOLON content
I now have a black screen after doing all the above when i launch game, i can hear sound sand when i move my mouse I can see hear the menu button being selected
When i boot up fallout london on gog galaxy there is no sound whatsoever except for the intro. Do you know any solution? i have tried almost everything.

That’s awesome! Was hoping to see more content creators showcase additional mods that are compatible with FL.
Thank you very much for the tutorial to the mods, the improvement in loading time is absolutely cool. 😍
Thanks for a clear set of instructions, very much appreciated - they worked for me, no more random CTDs, much faster loading.
Absolute legend. This got me past the train ride crashing my game.
Really concise and well made tutorial!
Works as advertised. I did not need to add the High FPS Physics but everything before that allowed the game/mod to experience no crashes now. Thanks!
You're a life saver!! Thank you for this seems to have stopped all the crashes.
Thank you.
This is a great guide, I've subdued.
Actually seemed to work, could finally keep playing past the train section
cheers mate

It just works 💕 Thanks so much for the video and all the help!

This process works. I'm using the Lenovo Legion Go. It used to crash after starting a new game, now works.
Thanks for this info. I was still getting crashes because I didn't edit the buffout config file.
Excellent, sorting the train crash for me. You sir are a diamond 💎

same
Same also still getting crashes =|

All other saves are working.
thank you
Thanks For the Video! Can you add names for each of the links to the mods in the description? It's difficult to know which mod I'm clicking on.
One would think that becomes apparent when you view the actual page it links to :D
For anyone coming to this new - buffout 4 is now included in the FOLON installer now as default so no need to do this
Requires a lot of toot :
Address Library for F4SE Plugins
Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE)
xSE PluginPreloader

Go to their discord and read their troubleshooting page
This didn't work for me. Did exactly as was done in the video, and it's still crashing during character creation.
character creation crashes are usually a problem with the install rather than any of this
@@FrizzleFrass okay, good to know.

Does it matter I actually installed it before the Fallout? I made it past the train easily but it doesn't launch from the actual launcher

probably

G.O.A.T
Did people follow this method on the GOG GOTY edition? Not just those who had the game on steam initially.
Just done it on my GoG install, and no crashes so far, and FPS, loading, and input delay on everything is so much improved.
Dumb question but do i delete the ZIP files in the downloads folder? Also thank you for all the help!
@@dynominerx after its installed you don't need to keep the files there. They dont do nothing
@@FrizzleFrass thx!
Is Backported Archive2 Support System for the Steam version or GoG? or both?
@@sirloinsteak7679 its mainly for people forgetting to remove cc files when downgrading lol. But since the gog version aint NG it isnt needed

if I manually placed GOG contents into downgraded fallout 4 folder and then did all of these mods listed in the video. Am i ready or do i still have to launch GOG shortcut and install FOLON content
You shouldnt have to touch gog anymore, just launch it from f4se loader in your fallout 4 folder
Does the High Fps mod conflict with the Long Load times fix mod ?
no, however the high fps mod should be good enough on it's own
this might be a weird question but people say ''without mod loaders'' not ''mod loaders dont work'' why is that''?
@@electricangel4488 mod managers do work. This is just a tutorial for people who don't want to install a mod manager

I now have a black screen after doing all the above when i launch game, i can hear sound sand when i move my mouse I can see hear the menu button being selected
nvm i changed resolution!
The xSE PluginPreloader F4 says it requires Visual C++ 2015, 2017, 2019, 2022 Redistributable Package. Do I actually need it?
When i boot up fallout london on gog galaxy there is no sound whatsoever except for the intro. Do you know any solution? i have tried almost everything.
is there a way to do this in MO2? i really dont want to fuck around with the base files if i can avoid it
of course there is, just install them on mo2 but make sure the pluginpreloader installs into the root folder
