Surprised this doesn't have more views, you were super helpful and in-depth.

Painstakingly following the step-by-step. This takes me back to your New Vegas series.

It's been too long. Thanks, Cal.

Hope this gets you a ton of views. This is really needed seeing how many people are having trouble. Bit of work to get London working, but it's worth it. I find it so much better than FO4 vanilla.

You are a Godsend. I feel like I'm pretty decent at modding with MO2, but was having issues getting the mod to work correctly on the GOG version of FO4 GOTY with MO2. I applied certain Steam-related steps from this video in GOG form (skipped downgrading because, at the very least, the GOG version of FO4 GOTY does not require downgrading) and the mod is working perfectly now. Thank you! The main bug I was having was not being able to select a female character (choosing female would just result in a male character regardless) and, without spoilers for future users looking for help, a certain additional menu after choosing SPECIAL stats and character naming, was also not appearing (research suggests that the additional menu not appearing, for whatever reason, was tied to the bug that prevented female character selection. Maybe that was reliant on F4SE properly loading?).

I also found out through some research that you may need to add a launch argument to the F4SE executable in MO2 to force the f4se_steam_loader dll to load on GOG versions of FO4. Apparently, that doesn't autoload when launching F4SE in MO2 on GOG FO4 installs. The launch argument is "-forcesteamloader" without the quotes.

My favorite MO2 Bethesda Modding mentor. Like many, first found you modding New Vegas and Skyrim. Thanks for coming back. Much prefer to run FOLON as a mod in MO2 but given how unique it is, wasn't sure how to go about it. Looking forward to more FOLON videos.

Thank You so much for the in-depth detail installation instructions of Fallout London. I find all of your instructional videos very simple and easy to understand and follow. I greatly appreciate all of your time and efforts for the gaming community. Keep up the good work!

Can’t wait for the recommended mods video. Hopes it’s soon. Thank you sooo much. Took me days to not get it. Followed your video once through and got it running first try. Not all heroes wear capes.

Just to add to this you can add Bethini to Executables in the dropdown menu next to the "Run" button then when you run Bethini from mo2 it will not ask to save the ini files in your documents it will know to save to the profile.

Click tools / Executables / Click + / Find Bethini where ever you installed it. / Click Apply / Click Ok.
From the dropdown menu select bethini and hit run.

Good tutorial thanks for vid.

Long time no hear Cal, welcome back :)

[Phil-nybg]

Awesome level of detail. Comprehensive. Outstanding. Thanks and subbed!

[VramsGamingChannel]

Great tutorial! Thanks for explaining everything so well.

Great tutorial! Thank you for your efforts.

The screen captured showing all the steps is harder te read because I have a 1080p monitor. Your footage is 1440p where smaller text and buttons, are easy to read/see. It's not that I can't make it out, it's just less pleasant and costs more effort for my eyes to follow you while repeating the steps on my pc. Other than that, great video! very useful info

When using MO2 with Fallout: London, once you get the game installed and you're ready to log in make a FEMALE test character first. If the character is still male the script extender isn't loading fully despite what the system is telling you.
The solution I found was to simply install any mod with a ".dll" file directly into the game folder. Yes, this means installing Fallout: London into the game not in MO2. For some reason on some rigs MO2 doesn't want to load .dll files from it's virtual file system.
Essentially, the main mod and any mod that is dependent on Address Library needs to go into the game's "Data" folder directly.
This is on the GoG version of the game, I didn't want to deal with downgrading the Steam version so I don't know if it has the same issue. It may also be a random thing that isn't affecting every player. Lucky me.

I really think Microsoft should buy this mod and convert it into a standalone game, so it can be on Xbox and be separate from fallout 4. This is the closest thing we'll get to a full fallout game for a very very long time.

[jodiepalmer]

What happens if I'm using GOG Fallout 4 instead? Because GOG hasn't been updated to Fallout 4 Next-Gen therefore, we don't have the creation club content. Can I just go to 21:45 Installing MO2, I rather have a separate MO2 just for GOG version - i.e. standalone version, as this will not conflict with STEAM version of MO2 that's already created for FO4.

help i did follow yout turorial but i get this:

The failed plugins are:
• PRKF version 1 (PRKF.dll, Fallout London) reported as incompatible during load.

when i look up the internet they say i need to update PRKF but i am afraid to do so what if the game does not functions as it should be ?

if anyone has a solution let me know thanks in advance!

The first patch for Falllout London 1.01 is out now, will you be doing a video showing how to update the game using MO2? Is it as easy as downloading the new version of the mod and replacing the "data" mod we made in this video with the new one? Thanks for your videos btw, they are always the easiest to understand

[TomJenPiano]

This is the best mo2 installation guide for FOLON that I have found. One question though, doesn’t the downgrader revert Fallout in your Steam folder so that it is no longer compatible with your next gen profile? I can see using a vanilla game profile in parallel if it is based on a pre-nextgen set of mods but I can’t see how your nextgen profile can keep working alongside FOLON unless you also have a current nextgen Fallout game root in a second location linked to it.
