Yeah. The modlist creator always had it in as a "I don't care for settlements and don't have a set of mods in mind to fix them, so I'll just chuck SS2 in and call it a day" sort of thing rather than it being part of the vision, and I think it was becoming more trouble than it was worth - apparently they were getting a lot of people posting SS2-related problems in the modlist discord and Whisky just hadn't played the mod enough himself to give useful answers, and there had always been an issue that going too hard on SS2 city plans in the modlist would cause issues (something about script load or something? Don't quite remember and I don't know the technical side that well). There's been some work on a lighter replacement where you just input resources and the game builds up to a predesigned state, but I haven't played the preleases yet so I can't comment on how well that works. Fens Sherrif Department got cut recently (in the most recent prereleases) as well. Ended up just being too big and buggy and wonkily-balanced (putting aside the constant thing around the mod where some people have always had problems with the writing, and the whole AI player voice stuff) to keep. Same update also cut out some cave/dungeon mods that were just kinda meh in general. All makes sense but all these cuts together does mean that LitR is a gonna be little lighter on modded questing stuff going forward than it used to be (although there's still some of that in the list and presumably replacements will be slotted in once they're found and deemed good enough). Still my preferred list, mind you. Does a lot of things to the game that I quite like, and the unique replacers part of it is probably the coolest bit of FO4 modding I've seen for a while.
Thanks for pointing that out! I actually did know it was removed and so I didn’t mention it in the script, then I must’ve had a dumb brain moment while editing and forgot so i added ss2 footage without thinking
I could never get into modlists. I'm the kind of person who spends 3-4 days modding the game to get every detail i personally want. It's a pita at times when i just want to dive in and play but it's always worth it in the end. Also RIP to the Oled TV. No catnip for a year!
Wasteland Reborn is indeed one of the best running bigger lists I ever played and it is still actively developed too with updates coming out every other day almost. I honestly can't wait for 1.0 of that modlist to be released so there's a "final" version out and I can really settle into one of my playthroughs with it. Sandland also looks very interesting and I was surprised it took this long for someone to make a desert themed modlist honestly.
god thank you so much for your work seriously. i love modlists, and just do not have the wherewithal to put my own together even tho damn do i want to. you make showcases so elegant and give such a beautiful overview of what to expect. you're 1000% my go to cuz no one else can capture what a showcase really is
I've tried several of this modlists, and for now, the one I enjoy the most is Wasteland Reborn. Really tough at the beginning but really rewarding at a satisfaction level
Having played most of the lists, here's my short impression: Fusion: a small low weight vanilla list. It's basically a vanilla plus. No big overhaul and additional content. Atomic Warfare: a pretty much patched together list. The mod author doesn't really do custom patches and the list was removed from wabbajack official lists. Life in the Ruin: the list I ended up sticking to. Survival but not hardcore. The most balanced list among all with no OP equipment. The downside is it has some bugs here and there. Magnum Opus: a kitchen sink list with tons of stuff. It's good if you like as many contents as possible. But due to that, it's also pretty unbalanced. And being lore friendly is out of the question. Sandland: just magnum opus under a different skin. Fallout Anomaly: basically a list that tries to make Fallout into something it's not. I'd just play Anomaly Gamma if I want to play stalker. Wasteland Reborn: haven't played it but looks interesting. Beyond Horizon: survival but actually hardcore. Not my cup of tea since it tends to get tedious and grindy.
You might want to correct your information on Atomic Warfare. I don't spread my patches throughout two hundred plugins, as it's all consolidated into maybe one or two plugins.
Great video, thank you. I’ve tried a number of the Wabbajack mod lists, but my favourite is Life in the Ruins. I like to add additional mods to the lists and LitR seems to be the most “friendly” in terms of customizing the mod list. I used Vortex for many years, but honestly, MO2 with its ability to allow you to mod a separate game folder is fantastic. I have 5 different instances of MO2 set up for FO4 with different scenarios for each so I can change to a different scenario if I want to take a break from a particular one. I know you can have different profiles in both Vortex and MO2, but when you have 500+ mods, even profiles start to misbehave so keeping each one separate works for me.
Thank you. Really having a tough time deciding between "Life in the Ruins", "Magnum Opus", and "Wasteland Reborn". Looking forward to diving back into FO4 after finish FO:NV.
@@DroppedIceCreamMods Haha. It put the above 3 modlists on my radar. I originally replayed FO4 after watching your "2023 Ultimate Graphics Modlist" video. I plan on replaying FO4 after the new Nvidia GPUs drop. I'm leaning towards "Wasteland Reborn." Is the 2023 Ultimate Graphics modlist still the best looking modlist?
I've been playing A Story Wealth collection from nexus, and honestly having a blast. Super stable, LOTS of new content, and you can also add some extra cool mods on top.
I have to say that your videos are amazing. Thank you so much for your effort. I really appreciate all your hard work. P.S. I am starting Fallout 4 tomorrow and I was searching for a modlist to install. I ended up with Wasteland Reborn.
I love you man. I would buy you an ice cream anytime if you drop one. This video has been a massive help for me. As looking over 3000 mods is outrageous. Much love and God bless brother.
wow. i swear you are reading my mind, I've already played life in the ruins and fusion. gonna do a playthrough of wasteland reborn. i was thinking "hmmm, it'd sure be nice for someone to do a review of all these modlists (as there are only 6 of them)" good stuff as always
@CVM.J you just them installed. And load the mod manager of that mod list. The games files aren't edited or effected, so you don't have to worry about mod lists conflicting other mod packs
If you are watching this video today and want to download anomoly, wait. The modlist authors told people to wait for their next big update which is coming soon. They are still working on it though but at this point you might as well wait. Im playing Sandland and on a 4070 im getting constant 60fps with only 50-60% utilization btw
I always love these types of videos you make. Whenever i'm itching to play fallout or skyrim again. I always like coming here and watching these videos to see whats out there to try next.
@@DroppedIceCreamMods Sure thing, I heard Wild Card is getting an update sometime around 20th of June so you might want to wait before making the video
The way you described Vortex isn’t really accurate. Mods don’t download to the Data folder. Vortex maintains all mods in its own local folder, then you deploy mods which copies files over to the Data folder. You never have to touch your Data folder- if you want to nuke all installed mods, you just use the purge mods feature. It’s fairly similar to MO2, which does the same thing but just with symbolic links and a virtual file system. I’ll say I prefer to use MO2 myself when I can. But my latest play through I’m using Storywealth and Vortex hasn’t been an issue at all.
I would agree with you but once you start building up several SS2 settlements the game starts dipping in FPS and get's more crash happy. I didn't crash a single time in MO until i started building settlements far and wide, and the problem with SS2 is that's it a bitch to properly clean out settlements. I'm sticking with Wasteland Reborn now. If i have to choose between autmoted SS2 settlements but buggy and more crash happy or no SS2 and rock solid then the choice is easily made.
Really interesting modpacks, thanks for the info! That said, most of them are huge in terms of memory size. Wasteland Reborn from what I've seen is around 200GB download and install... performance doesn't matter if you don't have the space. Maybe I'll try out Fusion, and then pick some mods from Wasteland Reborn.
Thanks for the video, man. I'm a lot less familiar with Fallout 4 modlists and mods in general so it's a lot harder to know what a modlist looks like just from the load order.
I hope your subs have been increasing at a good rate. This channel is just so good for this content. It's a shame so many people are still sleeping on it. (But please don't quit. 18k is still nothing to sneeze at (whatever that means :p ))
Nice video Dropped! I'm still struggling with my personal LO. Every time I think I've finally got it all playing nice, my game ends up imploding at some point. It's so frustrating. I love Wabbajack lists but mostly for SSE. Fallout is my first love, but a lot of the lists for it have way too much stuff that I'd never download myself. But, that's the price for convenience I suppose.
Worth noting on the nexus collections that there is actually a tool to move them from Vortex to MO2. It's called "mod manager migrator" on nexus. Haven't tried it myself yet so I don't know exactly how it works but it seems to do fine.
Personally I use storytell via vortex and found it super stable. I also still add a couple of mods left and right and with a list that's over 800 mods (750 from the collection + about 50-60 extra personal choice.) It's so extensive and so much going on that I honestly don't know what's vanilla and what's modded.
Wabbajack mod list users are eating good for Skyrim holy, from NVGO to LORERIM to Wuudniik and halls of sovngarde, low key excited to see what you choose next to review ❤
yes, but the balancing in the beginning hasn't been tweaked yet 100%. Make sure you invest heavily in combat (and armour) skills & perks during the first 10 levels so your guns do enough damage and you don't die in 2 melee hits. So like put at least 60 points in either handguns, rifles or heavy and stick with it until you are stronger.
I find fusion to have better 21:9 support than most of the other lists. Been playing survival on it and really feel like I'm now just playing FO4 for the first time.
Just a few things I would like to mention from my experience. Fusion is missing current installation instructions in the readme. If you want that one, you need to look for downgrade instructions and remove anything Creation. Other modlists, Magnum Opus and Wasteland Reborn for example, require that you start with the next-gen update (current version on Steam) and the Wabbajack downgrades what it needs to. Wasteland Reborn is not really an intermediate of Fusion and Magnum Opus; it intentionally has a much higher difficulty than both. A Story Wealth and other Nexus Lists are janky garbage.
One thing I've been hoping to see is a hardcore graphics-focused modlist for FO4, similar to the Ro Modlist for Skyrim. Hasn't really materialized yet, sadly.
Why does my Atomic Warfare not look like yours? Mine has very washed out colors and none of that stuff about clutter like the bridge you mentioned. It looks the exact same as the vanilla map apart from having better grass.
Awesome. I’ve been playing Fallout Anomaly for a while and it’s been a good time but I think I want to go and try out Atomic Warfare. What do you think? Any major differences ? Both are Hardcore correct?
I literally searched for this 2 hours ago, and now saw you uploaded this comparison! Massive thx. As of atomic warfare, heard it's pretty buggy and sloppily done, what do you / you guys think of it?
A Storywealth on nexus despite beeing on vortex ist by far the best list. It runs on very old system with still a improved graphics, lots of them optional (recommended is a i7 4790k and a gtx 1070) They have the most active support I’ve ever seen, many custom patches and mods created by the modlist author himself and his team. Official addon lists for survival, also with custom mods and patches. Community made addon modlists so get the green feeling in you saw in some of those lists or just a ton of new released mods, all with their own description if they fitt well in the original list. Guides for enbs. It also always tries to stay true to vanilla fallout while adding a ton of new quest mods. I testested some of the wabbajack lists and some of them are ok but not one feels as completed as this one. I had not a single crash, the list ist so now running with almost 800 mods on my pc with many mods added by myself and still runs smooth. Vortex came a long way and even though I still don’t like it, it’s wrong to say that it can only run smaller lists. It also hast full support for all Sim settlements 2 addons including part 2 and 3. It’s sad how this list gets turned down in this video just because of vortex. It has over 117000 votes with 80% positive. I’m actually disappointed that you didn’t give this list a proper look because it beats most wabbajack lists by far. Also it’s far easier to install for people who don’t want to add their own stuff with their own mcm settings and a custom ui made for this list. There is also a minimalistic HuD which removes most of it which is so great. Really disappointed in this video actually that you didn’t invest the time and instead sticking to the old "vortex sucks, not worth looking into" mindset. Starfield also has a great modlist on vortex.
You are the absolute golden standard of what a showcase video should be. You have ruined other "showcase/ first look/ review" videos for me 😅. You provide all the info one needs when trying to compare lists or someone looking for more info. If you don't have a video on it, I don't even bother with it😂
hey icecream long time viewer and supporter and i have a huge favor to ask if you find the time would you be willing to create a how to ultrawide mod video for those of us like you who use 32x9 and have to deal w the constant headaches of modding skyrim and fallout to work properly w them even more so with modlists on top. im sure the rest of the ulra/superwide community would greatly appreciate it..
Which one of these would be the best graphical modlist with vanilla+ gameplay? Does anyone have experience with multiple lists or list outside wabbajack(although wabbajack is highly preferred)?
Correct me if I am wrong but fallout anomaly used to be good now they just throw shit together and made it bad that is why I searched my ass off for fallout lost world and got it
A town without lush and vegetation after a nuclear strike is bullshit made up by brothesda and people got brainwashed by it in my opinion, there is chernobil that is a proof. Meanwhile brothesda created a fallout (76) where trees, flowers and grass are back and have different biomes (forest, burned, marsh and such). On the other hand I don't know why ppl imagine grass so much saturated, it's hard to find a grass tint like Days Gone for example. Desert modlist for me is more immersion breaking than a whole forest modlist. Is not new vegas.
There's so many great modlists that for the sake of my sanity I had to draw a line at some point. Not to say The Midnight Ride isn't worthy, it's a great list. It's just that lists like Fusion or the Modular Nexus collections kinda cover the same ground
midnight ride is the only fallout 4 list I've played that isn't too jank for me to enjoy a playthrough, and I've played most lists on WJ over past few years
This is awesome shit my man. I have been looking for this kind of video for a long time. I have only played magnum Opus and wanted to check another list.
Wasteland Reborn ends up becoming boring garbage fast. Yea it has nice homemade weapons and additional quests/locations but no joke you struggle to the Museum of Freedom get the mini gun and hundreds of rounds of 5mm and then never have a struggle again. They try to tout it as a very punishing list. It is not. It is only punishing at extremely low levels. Past 10-15 and you're pretty much untouchable. Go for Anomaly or Sandland. Both are faaaaar better than the unbalanced crap Wasteland Reborn is.
"Anomaly" * points and laugh. If i want to play stalker, i'll play one of those games with it's own myriad of mods. We want to play Fallout, not tryhard eastern european survival simulator.
I think LitR dropped SS2 support recently when the alternate profiles were removed so it's not officially included anymore?
Yeah. The modlist creator always had it in as a "I don't care for settlements and don't have a set of mods in mind to fix them, so I'll just chuck SS2 in and call it a day" sort of thing rather than it being part of the vision, and I think it was becoming more trouble than it was worth - apparently they were getting a lot of people posting SS2-related problems in the modlist discord and Whisky just hadn't played the mod enough himself to give useful answers, and there had always been an issue that going too hard on SS2 city plans in the modlist would cause issues (something about script load or something? Don't quite remember and I don't know the technical side that well). There's been some work on a lighter replacement where you just input resources and the game builds up to a predesigned state, but I haven't played the preleases yet so I can't comment on how well that works.
Fens Sherrif Department got cut recently (in the most recent prereleases) as well. Ended up just being too big and buggy and wonkily-balanced (putting aside the constant thing around the mod where some people have always had problems with the writing, and the whole AI player voice stuff) to keep. Same update also cut out some cave/dungeon mods that were just kinda meh in general. All makes sense but all these cuts together does mean that LitR is a gonna be little lighter on modded questing stuff going forward than it used to be (although there's still some of that in the list and presumably replacements will be slotted in once they're found and deemed good enough).
Still my preferred list, mind you. Does a lot of things to the game that I quite like, and the unique replacers part of it is probably the coolest bit of FO4 modding I've seen for a while.
just checked and this appears to be correct as of version 6.0

I've tried several of this modlists, and for now, the one I enjoy the most is Wasteland Reborn. Really tough at the beginning but really rewarding at a satisfaction level
Having played most of the lists, here's my short impression:
Fusion: a small low weight vanilla list. It's basically a vanilla plus. No big overhaul and additional content.
Atomic Warfare: a pretty much patched together list. The mod author doesn't really do custom patches and the list was removed from wabbajack official lists.
Life in the Ruin: the list I ended up sticking to. Survival but not hardcore. The most balanced list among all with no OP equipment. The downside is it has some bugs here and there.
Magnum Opus: a kitchen sink list with tons of stuff. It's good if you like as many contents as possible. But due to that, it's also pretty unbalanced. And being lore friendly is out of the question.
Sandland: just magnum opus under a different skin.
Fallout Anomaly: basically a list that tries to make Fallout into something it's not. I'd just play Anomaly Gamma if I want to play stalker.
Wasteland Reborn: haven't played it but looks interesting.
Beyond Horizon: survival but actually hardcore. Not my cup of tea since it tends to get tedious and grindy.

@@DroppedIceCreamMods Thanks for letting me know that I'm now on a list somewhere.
Heard its buggy and made with lack of care, something you felt in game as well?
Beyond the Horizon is under maintenance and Enhanced Edition is wiped out of the face of the Earth... Man, I miss simple but good Horizon modlists
Greb got rid of Beyond the Horizon and replaced with another Horizon one. Pretty much the same list though.
Just installed A StoryWealth amazing and the optional graphics package is great 😊
Do anybody know, why Fusion was hidden? Wanted to try it out on my next playthrough, but... Tough luck, I guess.
love your videos, thanks for this one!
Thank you! 🍦
The problem I always have with these lists is the additional weapons and armors which I tend to avoid.
Why does my Atomic Warfare not look like yours? Mine has very washed out colors and none of that stuff about clutter like the bridge you mentioned. It looks the exact same as the vanilla map apart from having better grass.
Absolutely phenomenal work mate!
So which modlist would you personally recommend and which do you prefer
Wasteland Reborn
are these compatible with the next gen update? or the most recent version?
Awesome. I’ve been playing Fallout Anomaly for a while and it’s been a good time but I think I want to go and try out Atomic Warfare. What do you think? Any major differences ? Both are Hardcore correct?
I literally searched for this 2 hours ago, and now saw you uploaded this comparison! Massive thx.
As of atomic warfare, heard it's pretty buggy and sloppily done, what do you / you guys think of it?
Someone know if Wasteland Reborn is compatible with Sim Settlements 2 ?
A Storywealth on nexus despite beeing on vortex ist by far the best list. It runs on very old system with still a improved graphics, lots of them optional (recommended is a i7 4790k and a gtx 1070) They have the most active support I’ve ever seen, many custom patches and mods created by the modlist author himself and his team. Official addon lists for survival, also with custom mods and patches. Community made addon modlists so get the green feeling in you saw in some of those lists or just a ton of new released mods, all with their own description if they fitt well in the original list. Guides for enbs.
It also always tries to stay true to vanilla fallout while adding a ton of new quest mods.
I testested some of the wabbajack lists and some of them are ok but not one feels as completed as this one. I had not a single crash, the list ist so now running with almost 800 mods on my pc with many mods added by myself and still runs smooth. Vortex came a long way and even though I still don’t like it, it’s wrong to say that it can only run smaller lists. It also hast full support for all Sim settlements 2 addons including part 2 and 3.
It’s sad how this list gets turned down in this video just because of vortex. It has over 117000 votes with 80% positive.
I’m actually disappointed that you didn’t give this list a proper look because it beats most wabbajack lists by far. Also it’s far easier to install for people who don’t want to add their own stuff with their own mcm settings and a custom ui made for this list. There is also a minimalistic HuD which removes most of it which is so great.
Really disappointed in this video actually that you didn’t invest the time and instead sticking to the old "vortex sucks, not worth looking into" mindset. Starfield also has a great modlist on vortex.
How about The Midnight Ride wabbajack mod list? Is it any good for new players to fallout4?
Yes but only few basic mods require by big mods , you need very skill and times to modding your game 😂
Hi sorry but the Fallout Anomaly link is sending me to a different modlist.
You are the absolute golden standard of what a showcase video should be. You have ruined other "showcase/ first look/ review" videos for me 😅. You provide all the info one needs when trying to compare lists or someone looking for more info. If you don't have a video on it, I don't even bother with it😂
Best way to get anomaly entirely 4k without breaking the list?
Oh heck he dropped the ice cream again
rly good video thanks 4 ur work ! :)
Great video thank you for this!
Storywealth collection is fantastic, the creators did an awesome job of getting the big DLC size mods to work well together.
Trying to get one mod, 20 minutes reading, find out there depencies, 10 more minutes reading on those.
hii, while i install a mod list do i have to click DOWLOAD from de mod nexus manager 856 times? or there is a way that it installs automatically
Yes, usually premium features allow you to do automatic install in nexus.
Nice Video. Do the WJ mods playable with Xbox controller. Hope your tv is ok . i just noticed Burn in on my lg c1 from the workshop menu.
hey icecream long time viewer and supporter and i have a huge favor to ask if you find the time would you be willing to create a how to ultrawide mod video for those of us like you who use 32x9 and have to deal w the constant headaches of modding skyrim and fallout to work properly w them even more so with modlists on top. im sure the rest of the ulra/superwide community would greatly appreciate it..
Rip Fusion😔
Can you do a review of the immersive wasteland 2 mod list?
New Dropped Ice Cream video!!! Yay!
Some of the links in the description are in the wrong spots lol.
Question about fusion, cant see the components of junk items in 1st person view, is this intentional?
Hey dropped ice cream…if I only have an ssd now, I won’t be able to run wabbajack lists anymore will I?
atomic warfare seems really nice
Can you combine the quest mods of magnum with fallout anamoly.
Horizon Roleplay Edition was the GOAT. RIP
What about Storywhealth? Is it good?
Which one of these would be the best graphical modlist with vanilla+ gameplay?
Does anyone have experience with multiple lists or list outside wabbajack(although wabbajack is highly preferred)?
Correct me if I am wrong but fallout anomaly used to be good now they just throw shit together and made it bad that is why I searched my ass off for fallout lost world and got it
no a storywealth?
So, will any of these easily integrate F4 london?
No. As Folon is it's own standalone overhaul. It's like asking if skyrim modlists can include enderal.
Thanks brother
Thanks but I’m too new to understand the benefits
Thank you for your video, is there a list of modlists that work with the newest Fallout 4 update?
Thank you!!!
A town without lush and vegetation after a nuclear strike is bullshit made up by brothesda and people got brainwashed by it in my opinion, there is chernobil that is a proof. Meanwhile brothesda created a fallout (76) where trees, flowers and grass are back and have different biomes (forest, burned, marsh and such). On the other hand I don't know why ppl imagine grass so much saturated, it's hard to find a grass tint like Days Gone for example. Desert modlist for me is more immersion breaking than a whole forest modlist. Is not new vegas.
I'm in doubt between Atomic warfare and Life in the ruins... Somebody can help me?
Just wasteland reborn or magnum , both hard 😂
War and Peace mods.
Wish Fallout was as easy to mod as BG3 and Cyberpunk. Need the mods to be personalized.
True but also Fallout allows for far more complex mods, so I’d say it’s a good trade off
Fallout is very limited, if anything is skyrim to allow more complex mods, I tell you one OAR.
Are these for Xbox X?
no "the midnight ride"?
There's so many great modlists that for the sake of my sanity I had to draw a line at some point. Not to say The Midnight Ride isn't worthy, it's a great list. It's just that lists like Fusion or the Modular Nexus collections kinda cover the same ground
midnight ride is the only fallout 4 list I've played that isn't too jank for me to enjoy a playthrough, and I've played most lists on WJ over past few years
Fusion is superior, midnight ride is very minimal.
This is awesome shit my man. I have been looking for this kind of video for a long time. I have only played magnum Opus and wanted to check another list.
Glad I can help!
Wasteland Reborn ends up becoming boring garbage fast. Yea it has nice homemade weapons and additional quests/locations but no joke you struggle to the Museum of Freedom get the mini gun and hundreds of rounds of 5mm and then never have a struggle again. They try to tout it as a very punishing list. It is not. It is only punishing at extremely low levels. Past 10-15 and you're pretty much untouchable. Go for Anomaly or Sandland. Both are faaaaar better than the unbalanced crap Wasteland Reborn is.
"Anomaly" * points and laugh.
If i want to play stalker, i'll play one of those games with it's own myriad of mods.
We want to play Fallout, not tryhard eastern european survival simulator.
You want hard , add monsters mods 😂 many bad mons ready fight you
