Hello: This collaboration was built too push your game as hard as it can, while also keeping compatibility as the main priority and using the least amount of cheat mods as possible. I wanted too create a different kind of experience, so I used a lot of BlackChrome,LED, and Glow mods. I do not yet create mods, but have a very good understanding of how the Nexus Mod Manager works, and I have created a very large list of compatible mods and the order in which too install them. I've provided all the little details, just make sure you follow along step by step, pick the correct versionsoverwrite when necessary, etc.
 
If you encounter any issues please let me know. If you know of any mods that you feel would be compatible, and would improve this list, please leave feedback in the comments section.
 
Advice: I would highly recommend that you go through this list and download the mods you are going too use BEFORE starting too install anything. This could turn 4 hours of work into 1 or less. If you do not wish to use ENB, just start from Step 3.
 
I would also recommend that you use a fresh install of Fallout 4 to prevent fragments of any mods you have previously used from clashing with the mods on this list. When uninstalling mods, remember too disable them first, then right click the mod and uninstall.
 
Important: You do not need too use ENB or a Shader. If you choose too use a Shader though, you need too install ENB. I wouldn't recommend attempting too use one without the other.
 
Step 1: Install ENB. This is very easy too do, just follow the quick tutorial in this Video.
 
Step 2: Install Shader. This is also very easy too do. Just follow the tutorial found at the bottom of the Mod Description Tab. My personal preference is:
Cinematic Excellence Reshade Presets | By: Archalyus | Natural Version
 
Step 3: Install EnvironmentSky, and Clean Up textures.
 
Important: Always select the Download (MANUAL) button and then select the Download (NMM) button of the specific file you want. Most of them will have one main file, some are slightly more specific. I have included easy too follow directions for the more specific ones. 
 
Feel free too skip any mods that are Manual Install only, but if you wish too install them the installation instructions can usually be located somewhere on the Mod Description Tab.

Check This Out:
Although I am not yet creating mods, I create music in my free-time. Check out my youtube if you would like for over 100 live music videos as well. I always appreciate a good listener. youtube.com/devlishrising.
 
Also currently looking for a modder that may want too turn a couple of my well-recorded tracks into radio tracks for the Pip-Boy. They are better than anything on my youtube I assure you.
 
I also have some requests for mods that I think would be good ideas and haven't yet been made that would make my build particularly better. I CHALLENGE YOU!
 
Mod Requests:
Black Hole Sun - A mod that replaces the sun with a black hole but doesn't mess the game up to much.
Legendary Gas Masks and Accessories - Would be nice to have anything equipable to be legendary.
Legendary Explosives - Would be nice to find legendary explosives of all kinds every now and then.

You properly know about this one https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/5559/? ?

       I have seen that, its just that there seems to be a lot of negativity in the comments section. Which makes me kind of scared to even install it. This list is delicate and any little thing could throw it off lol. Gonna install it though since it just textures from the look of it though, thanks for the input

Do you guys know that you can create a wiki page and place your guide there? Since you already have a STEP account all you need do is navigate to:

http://wiki.step-project.com/HaosWidasee

The page will be created for you as a blank page with links to assist you in editing it and from there you can do pretty much anything you like. Have a look at the other guides hosted here on STEP to see what can be done.

That way it will allow for more scope to explain any installation details for each mod that the user needs, load order conflicts can also be elaborated on easier and any special merging or general mod housekeeping can also be detailed.

It isn't mandatory but I feel it may make things easier, once the initial setup is done.

How about a radio mod that adds to the limited soundtrack?

I had one and it kept having issues. Sometimes the songs would stop for long periods of time, some of the songs I didn't like and couldn't skip. It's just really hard to put one in there that will appeal to everyone. Feel free to try one though, I know theres a lot of them.
