Previously, the guide recommended enabling profile-specific saves for your MO2 profile. This allows you to create multiple profiles in MO2 with separate mod lists and separate saves. However, this also prevents Steam from storing your saves in the Steam Cloud. As of this release, the guide recommends that you disable profile-specific saves.
You can disable profile-specific saves as follows.
- In MO2, open the "Profiles" dialog. You can do so by pressing Ctrl + P, or by going to "Tools" in the main menu, and then clicking "Profiles".
- Select the profile you want to disable profile-specific saves for.
- Click "Transfer Saves".
- For each entry in the top-right box:
- Click the entry.
- Click "<- Move".
- Click "Yes".
- At the bottom, click "Done".
- Below the list of profiles, disable "Use profile-specific Save Games".
- When prompted for confirmation, click "No".
- Click "Close".
- Added Mod Configuration Menu (MCM) installation and usage instructions.
- Added instructions on how to download non-VR FO4 DLC without downloading the full game. (#22)
- Added Nathaniel Hartlen to the acknowledgements.
- Removed recommendation to use profile-specific saves in MO2.

Follow these steps to update your mod list from v1.0.0 to v1.1.0 of my guide.
- Mods
- Remove Hip-Fire Perk Replacers. This mod can be removed safely from an existing playthrough.
- Remove Unofficial Fallout 4 VR Fix. This mod can be removed safely from an existing playthrough.
- Unless you play survival difficulty, remove Survival Options. This mod can be removed safely from an existing playthrough.

- Update your settings for Survival Options according to Section 5.4.3.
- Notes
- Unlike what this guide said earlier, using quicksaves and autosaves is actually fine.
- If you did not finish the prologue yet, disable UFO4P, start a new game, and follow Section 5 of the guide again.
- Added description of guide's limitations to introduction.
- Added an INI config snippet for fixing weirdly glowing hair.
- Added an INI config snippet for improving the quality of the UI.
- Added note about anecdotal reports about issues with UFO4P in other guides.
- Added Binaural 3D Surround Sound for Headphones.

- Changed PipBoy VR light from required to recommended.
- Changed More Noticeable Hit Effect from required to recommended.
- Updated VR weapon and armor keyword crash patch from v2.1.5-1.0.3 to v2.1.5-1.0.4.
- Changed "I did not test Sim Settlements 2, avoid it" to "I did not test Sim Settlements 2".
- Improved cross-sectional navigation in various ways.
- Removed Hip-Fire Perk Replacers. Hip-fire is less broken in VR than I thought, so this mod isn't actually necessary. It's fine to keep using this mod, but it's no longer part of this guide. You can remove the mod safely from an existing playthrough, because it only edits existing perks, without adding or removing any.
- Removed Unofficial Fallout 4 VR Fix. Since this guide now requires that UFO4P is disabled during the prologue, this patch is no longer required. You can remove the mod safely from an existing playthrough, because it affects only the first time you exit Vault 111.
- Removed Survival Options for non-survival playthroughs. Using quicksaves and autosaves is actually fine, so there's no need to use this mod in non-survival mode.
- Fixed an incorrect claim that critical hits do not exist outside of VATS.
- Fixed an incorrect claim that using autosaves and quicksaves is unsafe and causes bugs. Apparently, this advice has been incorrect since the release of Oblivion, 18 years ago...
- Require that UFO4P is disabled during entirety of prologue, since this causes a crash when exiting Vault 111.
Initial release.
