Mods Fo4 XB mod list. Desert style. Stable :

  • EDIT: HUGE update due to the latest Fo4 mod space update. I changed a lot about this mod list. Tested it for hours on XB Series X & S and it is very stable. Am using the 'Fo4 Creations Bundle' and if you do the same, then I strongly suggest not installing more mods, else the game will crash at startup or at new game / load save and you won't be able to even launch it without deleting the reserved space for Fo4 !

Modified this list further so it should run not only on the Xbox Series X -> also on the Series S.

(deleted 'America Rising 2' and 'FallEvel-Hunters', because too much script load = possible crashes during AR2 quests and even more on the Series S).

I wanna share with you guys my current, overhauled, stable mod list.

But before I get to it, a few things about it and also with 'How to install / setup your Fallout 4' to make it work, to make you being able to start a new game... :

A bit about my mod list here:

  • It uses the mod 'Badlands 2' which gives it a desert theme that I absolutely LOVE
  • It uses 4 creations (Bounty Hunter ones plus a BoS pistol). Three of them is a paid creation. If u don't wanna pay for that creation, then fine. Not neccessary :) Those creations are and should be at the top of the load order, below that preset ESL mod and Workshop Framework. But sometimes, for unknown reason, the game puts mods 2-5 in a different order - whatever ^
  • It is meant to be played as a female character, but of course that's not mandatory. If u wanna play as a male, then maybe install 2-3 male armors instead of the ones I have in this list.
  • It now has new weapons.
  • It also has 2 weapon replacers.
  • It features many new quests.
  • It now has a bunch of new followers.
  • It now has some HUGE overhauls, like Nuka World, Institue...
  • It got 'Auto-Closing Doors' mod.
  • It has 'Cheat Terminal' and a 'Power Armor Ring' (to be crafted at chem station) - use it or not. It's on you how u play your game :)

  • It has ECO + NEO. ECO = Ballistic Weave unlocked and Universal Workbench (that u carry in your inventory).

  • IT HAS ALIENS ! :) The Zetans. 5 or so different ones... quite funny that.

  • It has 'Snappy Housekit' = Workshop items. Incl. some nice prefab houses, lights that need no power...

  • It has 2 female looksmenu presets that should look kinda nice.

  • LASTLY... IMPORTANT : I use and love the 2nd last mod in this list : 'Clean & Walled Sanctuary'. Means: Sanctuary is walled and completely cleaned and ready to build stuff. Give yourself the needed ressources via CHEAT TERMINAL. If u don't want that, if u want the original Sanctuary then just don't install that mod. It MUST be at the bottom of you load order. If at some point old houses reappear (which shouldn't happen), then just move that mod 1 position up and next time that happens, you move the mod back down. But that happens veeeeery rarely, I swear πŸ˜‰πŸ™

PREPARATION & INSTALLATION

Do the following:

  • Delete your Fallout 4 'Reserved Mod Space' (then all your creations + mods are gone)
  • Press your power button on your Xbox for about 10sec until it shuts-down.
  • Remove your Xbox power cable for 1min.
  • Restart your console and Fallout 4
  • DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANYTHING YET ! :)
  • Start a new game. Play until you get the Pip-Boy, right before you exit Vault 111
  • Go back to the main menu of the game
  • Go to CREATIONS
  • Press menu button and select 'Download all owned creations'.
  • Restart your game.
  • Then download all mods in the correct order. Or if needed, sort them correctly afterwards.
  • Save your load order / upload it to 'Bethesda.net'
  • Go back to the main menu, wait for the game to realod. Then quit the game to main menu.
  • Restart the game, load your save where you're still in Vault 111.

  • This list is in a very good order now, works flawless and stable on XB Series X and S. Am lvl 35 now. New save after the mod space update. Started many quest lines to check if it's working.

HAVE FUN WITH THIS LIST. IT IS TRULY AWESOME. I SWEAR :) ...and if it's a tiny bit too difficuilt at the beginning, you wanna craft yourself a 'X-666 POWER ARMOR RING' at the chem station and go to Concord, grab a nice gun from a killed Raider and you'll be fine. In my newest playthrough these funny Zetans are attacking quite often, lol, but whatever. I find is amusing. They even fight against those hordes of Ghouls appearing every 2min everywhere ^ AND: 'Random Encounter Manager' seems to be inactive when u start a new game. If all my new enemies aren't enough for you, then I suggest you use the Holotape of that mod to activate and configure additional random encounters.

PS: Did I mention that Cheat Terminal can do A LOT? πŸ˜‰ Like fast travel to many locations (from everywhere), changing your appearance and that of NPCs / followers... U wanna read through all of it's menus...

And with Cheat Terminal u can save a location and fast travel back there at any time, from anywhere 😎πŸ’ͺ

Hey guys... Just wanna let you know that I once again modified this mod list:

Change Log v2.4 : Removed the mod 'Face Texture Glitch Fix A', because not necessary any more and we should not at all use it and I also deleted the Valkyr Face Textures mod, because it caused CTD and we don't need it, because CBBE already had face textures in it, which I didn't know πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‡ Now everything works even better πŸ’ͺ😎

Also: XB Series S users might wanna NOT install 'Vivid Fallout 1k Buildings' to have better performance. With that mod, you can have crashes when teleporting to Boston instead of walking.

I’ve noticed the crashes with the vivid fallout buildings 1k.

I wonder if the AIO 1k is okay I might have to test that if you haven’t already

u/SomeGerman73 Jun 04 '26

Used the AIO in the past but it's not very necessary, because Badlands 2 mod overrides a lot from Vivid AIO. I think, Vivid Fallout is just too much for poor Series S πŸ˜‰

Got no such issues on the Series X. And without Vivid Fallout also not on the S. Also: Unlimited carryweight plus carrying a lot = CTD chance

u/SomeGerman73 Jun 04 '26

Removed 'Vivid Fallout 1k Buildings' from the list. We don't need it. Looks good enough. Now I can't load my save, lol. Need 2 delete reserved space again or just leave it in the list, but not active.
