In this video I cover what I believe are the best mods you can install for Fallout 4 in 2023.

This video will cover a wide range of mods, including graphical overhauls, quality of life, gameplay tweaks and bug fixes that enhance the original game, rather than completely overhaul it.

All the mods covered in this video can be installed for free from Nexus Mods and installed using Vortex Mod Manager on either Windows or Linux.

In fact, the only hard requirement for modding Fallout 4 is that you are using the Steam version of Fallout 4 and not the Microsoft Game Pass version, as the latter is restricted, especially when it comes to script extenders.

Step 1. Install Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE).

To install, navigate to the Files tab and click on the MANUAL DOWNLOAD button.

Once the download is finished, extract the archive, and take a copy of everything inside and paste into Fallout 4 installation directory.

For me this is located at “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4”

Finally, to launch the game using the script extender, make a desktop shortcut of the f4se_loader file.

Step 2. Create A Nexus Mods Account.

https://www.nexusmods.com/

There are two tiers of accounts, the Supporter which is your default basic account or Premium which is your monthly paid account.

The main difference is that the paid account has faster downloads speeds, and when viewing a mod list on the website, you can see more than 20 items per page.

Step 3. Install Vortex Mod Manager.

Install Vortex by downloading the latest version, but make sure to have installed NET 6.0 or higher before you launch Vortex.

Once installation has finished, launch Vortex, sign in using your Nexus Mods account, and navigate to the Games tab on the left-hand side.

From here, select Fallout 4 from the unmanaged section, and confirm that you wish to manage this game.

Once done, Fallout 4 is now able to be modded.

Step 4. Install Mods Using Vortex

To install a mod from Nexus Mods, navigate to the downloads page, click on the Vortex Mod Manager download link, and assuming that Vortex is running, it will download and install the mod for you.

In most cases, the mod will be installed automatically, but some mods may have installation options, so choose based on your preferences.

Once you have installed your mods, close Vortex, and then launch the game using the F4SE desktop shortcut.

Step 5. Recommended Mod List.

Below is a link to a list of recommended mods for Fallout 4 that will be updated constantly.
