Modder ‘Bdogs’ has released a brand new mod for Fallout 4. According to the modder, the Fallout 4 Enhanced mod aims to fix various bugs and rebalance the game in order to provide a more tactical feeling and a better RPG experience. Contrary to other mods, however, this one aims to stay close to the vanilla version and vision of its creators.

The Fallout 4 Enhanced mod comes with a lot of tweaks and enhancements. It smooths first-person sprint, resulting in less jerkiness and stuttering, fixes the Targeting HUD system, enables Workshop Stores to scale properly, improves Settler sandbox AI and tweaks aim stability so it can be more noticeable with the appropriate perks or mods.

Seriously, the amount of fixes, tweaks and enhancements is huge, and you can find all of them below. The modder also completely rebalanced the interior lighting to make the game feel more dynamic, and makes it possible to wear armor over clothes and make it so that most gear only takes a single slot.

Last but not least, this mod is compatible – by using the optional patches – with Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch, AWKCR, TrueStorms, Another Life, Vivid Weathers, Agony, BIS, Fallout 2287, Dustbowl, NAC, Frost, ReGrowth, Darker Nights and Horizon.

Those interested can download it from here, and you can find the full list of changes below.
