If you’re unsure of the location of your Steam Library, head into Home and use the search function near the top-right of the screen to search for “Steam Library”. Primary > Steam Library > Steam Apps > Common > Fallout 4 I have my games installed to an SD card, so the file path may be different if you’ve got it installed onto the Steam Deck’s internal storage. Now what we need to do is find the main Fallout 4 game folder. This will copy all the files needed and will make the next part that much easier. Next, use the left trigger to click anywhere to bring up the sub-menu and select Copy. Using the right touchpad and the right trigger, click-and-hold anywhere and drag the box across all the files to highlight them all. You should now be looking at all the files (pictured above). Click on this new F4SE folder twice to access it. Still in the Downloads folder, a new folder will have been created. From here, click on “Extract archive here, autodetect subfolder.” This will extract the files from F4SE and place them into their own folder. Once you’ve located it, use the left trigger to click on the file then select Extract from the menu. Access this via the Dolphin file explorer (the blue folder icon). The file we downloaded can be found in the Downloads folder. Note: You want to grab the non-VR version of F4SE. If, say, you download a mod that breaks everything, you can uninstall the mod and revert the game back to a workable state. If you’ve got all of that sorted, the first part of this guide is to head over to the F4SE website and download the F4SE file shown in the screenshot above.į4SE is, essentially, a script extender that allows us to modify files in Fallout 4 in a way that’s recoverable. You’ll also need an Internet browser like Chrome or Firefox installed.
