Unofficial patch:

As shown in the picture, a medium-sized module of the Far Harbor Exploration Expansion was also decided to move up because I found a good translation. The main body and patches have been packaged and uploaded together.

The main file and Arcadia internal cleaning patch have been uploaded, which are divided into OG version and NG version. The OG version is suitable for version 1.10.163, and the NG version is suitable for version 1.10.984, which is the next-generation version. You can choose to download and install according to your own game version.

Troubleshooting Guide:

WARNING: Never remove mods while in game as this may cause unexpected game issues and may lead to save corruption and crashes

  • Back up all INI settings to desktop
  • Verify the installation is not corrupt (Steam/Gog)
  • Launch the vanilla Fallout 4 launcher and reset your INIS to vanilla settings (Low/Medium/High/Ultra)
  • Disable all mods that are not UFO4P and the Better Far Harbor expansion.
  • Start a new game or use a vanilla save (see 5a)

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
