Modder ‘Zzyxzz’ has released a new cool mod for Fallout 4 to improve its dismemberment system by bringing an engine-level gore overhaul. This is a mod that a lot of Fallout 4 fans will love. So, let’s take a closer look at it.
The Dynamic Dismember System Mod transforms combat into something far more reactive and brutal. Every time you hit a limb, the game checks its actual limb health. If that limb’s condition reaches zero, it can be severed instantly.
For ranged combat, different ammo types can define how destructive a hit should be. Heavy rounds can tear limbs off. Brutal setups can completely destroy a head.
Melee combat follows its own rules. You can allow every hit to potentially sever a limb, or restrict dismemberment to powerful heavy strikes only. Light swings will remain controlled. On the other hand, heavy blows will feel devastating.
VATS can enhance brutality in multiple ways. Critical hits can push a normal hit into full dismemberment. You can even restrict headshot kills to VATS only for a cinematic execution style. The damage you inflict in you enemy will still matter.
All in all, this is a cool mod that can enhance the game’s combat. So, if you are still playing Fallout 4, you might want to give this mod a go. You can go ahead and download it from this link.
If you are into Fallout 4, you might also want to check out these other mods for it. For instance, there is a LOD mod that reduces distant object/shadow/texture pop-ins. Then we have the Disk Cache Enabler Mod. There’s also a mod that adds ragdoll physics and collisions to dead bodies. Another amazing mod is this one that fixes the game’s long loading times. DirectHit is a mod that overhauls the AI of enemies. And let’s not forget this mod that adds real locational damage to all enemies. We also have this mod that adds to the game 10 driveable cars/vehicles with Havok physics, as well as this Enhanced Movement Mod. Modders have even brought Fallout: New Vegas’ skill system to it.
To improve the graphics or performance, you can use the following mods. If you don’t like this latest HD mod, you can either download this 8K Texture Pack or this 41GB 4K Texture Pack, which optimizes all 40,962 textures. There’s also a mod that improves the faces of over 1450 NPCs. Plus, there is a mod that adds support for NVIDIA DLSS 2, AMD FSR 2, and Intel XeSS. And let’s not forget the free AMD FSR 3.0 Frame Gen Mod.
America Rising 2 is another fan DLC/expansion mod that integrates the Enclave faction into the main story with 24 main quests. Hunter’s Abyss and Caves Of The Commonwealth are two other fan expansion mods. Let’s also not forget Fallout London, which looks promising. Misery Island is another DLC-sized fan expansion. You can also download Sim Settlements 2 – Chapter 3, Whispering Hills, which is a cool Silent Hill mod, and The Wilderness Mod. Plus, there is a horror quest mod that is inspired by Lovecraft, Resident Evil, and Dead Space. A few months ago, we also shared a brand new dark quest mod, called Project A.R.E.S. Let’s also not forget Atom’s Retribution, which offers 24+ hours of gameplay and 40+ new quests. Oh, and the Mass Effect Evolution Mod is once again available for download.
Have fun!
