<h3>Overview</h3>
The Midnight Ride is a modding guide for Fallout 4 that will carefully walk you through how to install all the mods you will need for a perfectly stable, smooth and enjoyable experience. <br>
<br>
The guide is highly accessible for everyone, no matter your modding experience.
It is still incredibly important that you read all the instructions very carefully, even if you believe you are experienced enough to skip them. There are many small instructions that are vital for your game to function, and could be easily missed if you aren't careful.
Although you don't need any modding experience to use this guide, it is expected for you to be relatively experienced with operating a computer in general.

<h3 onclick="location.href='#Features'">Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Stability</b>: The guide includes all essential stability enhancements and no placebo/dangerous mods.
</li>
<li>
<b>Performance</b>: Every tool, setting and mod in the guide has been carefully selected and play-tested to ensure maximum possible performance. With the recommended specs listed below, you can expect ~60 FPS in the heavier areas of Boston.
</li>
<li>
<b>Customizability</b>: The guide is split into <b>2 sections</b>; all the mods required for the game to work and perform better are contained in the first section. The mods that can be considered subjective and that alter or add game content are in the <strong>TMR Extended</strong> section.
</li>
<li>
<b>Better Gameplay</b>: As part of the <b>TMR Extended</b> section, the guide includes many mods that greatly improve the gameplay without drastically overhauling the core experience or straying away from the game's original intent.
</li>
</ul>
</p>
</div>
<div class="card" id="Requirements">
<p>
<h3 onclick="location.href='#Requirements'">Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>An <b>English</b> copy of the game with <strong>all DLCs except the HD Texture Pack</strong> (the reason is explained in the mods to avoid section: <a href="https://themidnightride.moddinglinked.com/avoid-mods.html">Mods to Avoid</a>), from <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/sub/199943/">Steam</a>.
<ul>
<li>Only the <strong>English version</strong> of the game is supported for maximum compatibility; translations can conflict with mods and cause issues. The Bethesda.net and Xbox Game Pass versions of the game are also unsupported, as they do not work with F4SE, which is essential for many mods.</li>
<li>Only the Creation Club content that ships with the game is supported. Most of the CC content will need patching (a common exception to this are workshop additions, you can keep those ), which is beyond the scope of this guide. You will have to remove them as instructed later in the guide when uninstalling the game.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<div class="card-red">
<p>
GOG is not supported until it receives the Next-Gen update, due to it currently missing the CC content that mods such as UFO4P and Community Fixes Merged rely on. Supporting GOG in its current state would mean massively branching the guide and having less fixes for a chunk of the userbase.

You can buy a cheap activation key for the GOTY edition on <a href="https://www.instant-gaming.com/en/2207-buy-fallout-4-goty-edition-goty-edition-pc-game-steam/?igr=moddinglinked" target="_blank">Instant Gaming</a> (affiliate link).

<li>At least 52GB of free drive space, game included (45GB if you delete all the downloads).</li>
<li>Windows 10 or higher (64-bit).</li>
<div class="card-red">
<p>
Windows installations deviating from the public release (e.g. <strong>customized or LTSC</strong>) are not supported by us. We can refuse to provide help in such cases.
<br>
This is because they don't guarantee the default functionality expected from the public release, which can cause <strong>unforeseen issues</strong>.
</p>

<li>The latest VC++ Redistributables:
<ul>
<li>
<a href="https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/" target="_blank">VC++ AIO</a>

<li>Restart your PC.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>A text editor (<a href="https://notepad-plus-plus.org/" target="_blank">Notepad++</a> is recommended, but the default Windows notepad will work).</li>
<li>An archiving tool (<a href="https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/nanazip/9N8G7TSCL18R?hl=en-us&gl=us" target="_blank">NanaZip</a> is recommended).</li>
