The primary change here is the update to PRP, and some previs related changes to the Cambridge Police Station and Ameria Rising 2, that should hopefully fix some previs related bugs reported in the discord.

If you're using Radfall, grab the 7.0.7 update 2025-03-24 07:31:02 +0000 UTC View Post

Radfall Dev Blog

LitR 7.0 has been out for a while now, and is relatively stable. I don't have any large plans for integrating new content into the list, and my two goals for the year are to 1) generally slow down on development a bit and actually play the list, and 2) focus more on Radfall than the base list. Radfall is generall in a pretty ...

Radfall - Tips and Tricks

WhiskyTangoFox post Radfall - Tips and Tricks from patreon

Combat and Healing

  • In Radfall, the player has a lot more health, and combat should not generally feel super lethal. Horizon players should be familiar with this strategic resource-based rather than tactical balance approach. The sweet spot Radfall tries to hit is that you can get through most encounters withou...

Pre-release 7.0.4

This is a very small pre-release, primarily to test Settlement Fast Travel Signs - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/89580 as an alternative to Journey. The mods feels quite a bit more intuitive to use.

Dev Blog: LitR 3rd Anniversary

Happy New Year Everyone! And happy 3rd birthday to Life in the Ruins!

It's been a pretty crazy year, kicked off by the launch of the Fallout TV show, which lead to the busiest month I've ever had running support for the list, and lead to some major changes, including the removal of SS2, and changes from Nexus that lead ...

LitR 7.0.3 Prerelease 1

So far, this is shaping up to be an update to integrate a few things that have been on my todo list for a long time. The big ticket item here was the regeneration of LOD with the FOLIP update.

For testing, the main thing I'm looking for feedback on is that the LOD isn't screwed up anywhere.

Radfall users can use...

Modified LitR - Removing A Forest / Generating LOD

WhiskyTangoFox post Modified LitR - Removing A Forest / Generating LOD from patreon

The primary thing you need to do if you're removing A Forest from the list is to regenerate LOD. If you're already familiar with LOD generation for Skyrim, the process is similar, however this is a detailed process, with a lot of steps to follow, that can be a bit finicky.

 If you're removing A Forest, you may also...

LitR Prerelease 7.0.2

I've finally got an updated pre-release for 7.0.2. The only major change compared the the prior prerelease (other than bugfixes), is the inclusion of Art of War. I think I've solved all the known issues, and baring any major issues, I'd like to push this to a full release in a week or two.

Radfall Load Order Patcher

The Radfall load order patcher is a scripted fo4edit patcher.

To install the script, download the file, unzip it, and paste the contents into fo4edit/edit scripts folder.

To run the script, load your entire load order in FO4edit (without the sorting patch, if you're using M8rs Complex Sorter), and run the WTF - Ra...

The next LitR update is shaping up to be quite a significant one in terms of new content. I expect once this is out it will need quite a long pre-release period for testing. I'm hoping to have a prerelease out in the next couple weeks. Right now, I'm investing quite a lot of time into improving the scripted patching tools I u...

Radfall for v 7.0.1 (beta)

This is updated for the LitR 7.0.1 full release.

I'm considering this a release candidate. All the major features are complete, at this point it just needs it's tires kicked to make sure there aren't any bugs I've missed.

The only real changes compared to beta 2, are around Power Armor. Repair, mostly carrying ove...

So it's been a busy few weeks of development. LitR 7.0.1 came out this morning, including a handful of bugfixes and cleanup with the goal of getting the list into a relatively stable state. It is my genuine hope that with this release is that development on the list slows down, and lets me focus on other things for a while. I...

Here is a selection of User Requested Patches, that I a) have had time to make, and b) think more people might want. If you want to try a patch, feel free to suggest it over in the discord.

Radfall - Beta 2

Here's an update on the Radfall Beta, built against the 7.0.1 prerelease.

I'm still working through PA balance, I think I've got it more or less where I want it with the changes in LitR 7.0.1, and what Radfall does on top of that. The T60 should be brotherhood specific, the X01 is unique and hand-placed in the world, an...

Pre-release 7.0.1

A couple updates, and a few tweaks to Power Armor progression. T60 is now BoS only, and the X01 is a single unique suit scattered actoss the commonwealth. Both are easier to repair and have reduced core drain- the idea is that instead of just having higher defenses, they're improvements in efficiency compared to the T45 and T...

What Is Radfall?

A massive overhauled and finely tuned Fallout 4 experience. It is designed to rebalance the game with the goal of making the game less of a sandbox power fantasy, and turning FO4 into an actual survival game, without turning it into a grindy simulator you need a spreadsheet to keep track of everything. Instead of just adding ...

Radfall - Beta Testing - 1

As mentioned in my previous Dev Blog, I've decided to take the main list in a more vanilla direction, and develop all-in-one solution for players wanting the kind of more niche, survival experience I've developed in v6. Radfall is that all-in-one overhaul. Radfall started as a compilation of all my survival mods: Stimpacked, ...

Quest mods are potentially the most complex type of mod to add to LitR, primarily because they're basically compound mods, that can potentially include mutliple types of content that requires patching.
