Ok so it finally works! This is how I did it. Or you can use my tool to enable mods as loose files, it will do the ini modification automatically. you can apply the ini modifiaction also to the fallout4.ini and it will work So if you have modified the necessary items, NMM will keep nagging, But you can ignore it. The NMM only scans the Fallout4custom.ini and ignoring the fallout4.ini settings. the massage you get from NMM is just a general warning massage. you dont need Fallout4custom.ini to make loose file mods work the Fallout4custom.ini is created with the start of the game Fallout4.exe Basically you can have the same ini settings in both files, but the Fallout4custom.ini have a higher priority, so everthing that is in both inis gets overriden by the setting in the Fallout4custom.ini. The Fallout4custom.ini is nothing special, it is just an override to the fallout4.ini. You dont need this file to make mod (loose files) to work. The only other solution i found was rolling back to a previous version of NMM.Įdit: did you already came across this topic?
The ini files should be in C:\Users\username\Documents\My Games\Fallout4\ Well i got personally steam / fallout 4 on c:\games all other 'nexus mod manager can't find ini' topics lead to that custom ini file missing even youtube vids.
