Poll of the Day > fallout 4 is 38gb, fallout 4 high res texture pack is 55gb

(+) Yeah! (+)

lmao

I noticed that installing it, I'll bet it barely looks better and that there's hundreds of mods that do what it does but better for far less space.

Also Sidenote this game is an unstable pos on PC.

1920 x 1080 = 2.1 million pixels

3840 x 2140 = 8.3 million pixels

So you'd expect 4K textures to be about 4x the size of HD textures. But a computer scientist may come explain why I am wrong

it seemed pretty stable on my end

i spawned in about 300 explosives and they all exploded just fine. my fps tanked for a minute or so but it didn't crash like it would have on console

bethesda open-world games are all janky pieces of trash without That One Mod That Fixes A Million Bugs (and sometimes a 4gb aware patch)

I'm aware, but I was especially frustrated with Fallout 4 right now, I spent hours getting load times to work properly(they were taking 5+ minutes on an SSD), installed 3 mods for it, fiddled with them so much I'm not even sure if 2/3 are working, I only know one is working because it gives me a confirmation on screen and I live in mortal terror of the moment the other ones override/interrupt/murder it.

Bethesda games are the only games that have never worked quite right out of the box for me on PC, I always have to go edit some .ini to get basic accessibility options like FOV, turning off VSync, and more.

turning off VSync

Do you use also use a frame limiter? Because I'm pretty sure since Skyrim doing this without a frame limiter is a major cause of physics bugs.

other than the usual bethesda jank FO4 has rarely ever given me issues. NV actually gives me more issues and is still mostly playable.

I have a mod that fixes that.

Does this give you the opportunity to redo all the trophies again, like when they did this with The Witcher 3?

the update is entirely a different thing than the texture pack, and is pc only

but

if on xbox, no since it just updates the existing version

if on playstation, yes since it's an entirely new download

if on pc, no idea

Yeah I decided to stay on my PS5 so I can bring it to work. For some reason it has me logged as the PS Plus version, so I just said fuck it and bought the GOTY edition so I could get the trophies again. Just to give me something to do, I guess.
