After months of discussion with Sony, we regret to say that while we have long been ready to offer mod support on PlayStation 4, Sony has informed us they will not approve user mods the way they should work: where users can do anything they want for either Fallout 4 or Skyrim Special Edition.Then what is the point of FUCKIN mods? HELLO?!Is Sony too afraid of this?Perhaps this?ALL PRAISE BUTTS AND GORE!Jk but seriously.Please Sony, tell me. I do not understand what you mean, 'by users can upload whateverthehell they want'It also disclosed it was deeply disappointed by this decision taken by Sony.

• How Many Mods Can Fallout 4 Handle Set

It also disclosed it was deeply disappointed by this decision taken by Sony:Like you, we are disappointed by Sony’s decision given the considerable time and effort we have put into this project, and the amount of time our fans have waited for mod support to arrive. We consider this an important initiative and we hope to find other ways user mods can be available for our PlayStation audience. However, until Sony will allow us to offer proper mod support for PS4, that content for Fallout 4 and Skyrim on PlayStation 4 will not be available.We will provide an update if and when this situation changes.Thoughts? Yea, I do but is there a limitation? I haven't looked into that personally.Not really, I mean there are of course certain mods that Sony (and I guess Microsoft) wouldn't want on their platform (hardcore sex, killable children, anything racist, ect.) because it might upset their sponsors or certain activist groups but it doesn't seem like it would be that hard to legally work around.

Just have a filter for certain content and make the players agree to a TOS that says something along the lines of:'By installing user created content that may not have necessarily been tested, observed or approved by the ESRB or QA when the intial product was assessed. You are agreeing that it is you and not Sony, it's affiliates, employees and partners that are responsible for the content within or any effect that it has on the quality of the product.' THAT would have been fine! It's sad that it has had to come to this.

Mods on Xbox One exist, but are limited meaning no excess gore mod, no sex mods etc and pretty much everything Crabs listed. However there are issues happening on the Xbox One front with Fallout 4. 'Modders' there are stealing mods from Nexus and saying it's theirs and the issue has been going on for months now and many modders don't want mods there because of that.I'm not sure if the issue has been resolved, but apparently the owner of Nexus Mods and Bethesda had a long discussion about it and Bethesda has to put more effort into finding frauds before some big modders will put their mods on Xbox One. Besides the obvious reason for banning mods ( ie loverslab, violence, etc) wouldnt the hardware be limited as well?

I dont know the specs on the xbone and the ps4/pro but I wouldnt think that they can handle as many mods as a PC could. Maybe they are worried someone will blame Sony for their game crashing when they try to Mod it too much?ENBs and such aren't supported because of hardware, but gameplay enhancing mods are allowed which don't have that much impact on perfomance. What keeps the console from 'crashing' from too many mods or mods overexceeding is the mod limit. Xbox One is limited on the number of mods it can support and Bethesda is looking into ways for increasing it.I doubt that Sony is worried about people's game crashing. I mean when you mod, it's at your own risk and it would not be Sony's fault. Good point, im sure theres some kinda warning on there.

I didnt know they limited how many you can run. That makes sense. Then yea I got nothing, no real reason to not support them.I think they have to limit it mostly because eventually if you put too many mods, it can start to impact perfomance as well, even simple things like just armor or weapon mods.

The mod author also notes a compatibility issue with Better Companions by Tech Prince. – Heather Casdin, Final Verdict – I’ve replayed Fallout 4 many times, and can say that since trying Heather Casdin she ends up on a lot of my play throughs.

Too many mods increases the amount of things the game has to run and load and mods aren't really super stable, specially ones that aren't 'cleaned', meaning they can easily cause issues at one point in the game or clash with other mods or just clash with other things in the game and it can also have impact on perfomance: takes more memory or CPU, as an example. One of the most common issues 'dirty mods' can do as I call them is cause the game to crash at some point or it can cause perfomance issues. It usually happens if the mod is having issues with another mod that you installed or just having issues running stable within the game. A tool used to clean mods is called TES5EDIT (few others now) and what that does is it cleans mods and makes them more stable. Sadly, that's not something Xbox can use.I have around 150 mods right now from graphical to gameplay and overhauls. 80% of them can't be supported on Xbox I think for different reasons, one of them being mostly hardware and other mod limitations.I think it took HELL of an effort for Bethesda and Microsoft to figure out how to get some basic modding capabilities work out on Xbox One so hats down to that, but what I can't understand or forgive is Sony's excuse. As I said, people DO use and make mods because they are free to do whatever they want which is the whole point of mods: to expand the game's capabilities and make it better.

I have NVAC (New Vegas Anti Crash) installed which helps by saving the game when it crashes sometimes but it's not really stopping it from crashing.

This might be a little of topic but is there such an app for Fallout New Vegas on PC? I have NVAC (New Vegas Anti Crash) installed which helps by saving the game when it crashes sometimes but it's not really stopping it from crashing.It's similar, but not completely. TES5edit is a little more expanded. I think NVAC keeps the mod load order in check so that the right mods are loaded first and then the less 'important' ones later etc.TES5edit does that, but also gives option to clean mods which is a little more complicated. I never did it myself.

Only cleaned a few smaller mods and it all has to be done manually. Source:All this time, people blamed Bethesda, but here is the reason they delayed everything:Bethesda revealed that the reason was that Sony doesn’t want user generated content to be readily available without a review or approval process:Then what is the point of FUCKIN mods?

As a long time Playstation devotee, and huge Fallout 4 and Skyrim fan, I was angry and dismayed at this news. No issues with Mods on XBox, so what is the REAL reason? In any event, as Microsoft put together the Scorpio blueprint, for the future of console design, this news, to me, says Sony have lost the plot and I think it is going to cost them dear.

I hate to do this, but my money is likely headed to Microsoft next year.
