<p>Update 1.4 for <em>Fallout 4</em> is currently in beta on Steam. The update encompasses support for upcoming add-ons and, as usual, game fixes, but also includes some new features which will allow players to add more character to their settlements.</p>
<p><figure id="attachment_100153" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-100153" style="width: 1280px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-100153 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/03233919/F42.jpg" alt="F42" width="1280" height="720" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-100153" class="wp-caption-text">[Fallout 4, Bethesda]</figcaption></figure>For the features, there’s been additional art customization added to the Workshop, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>The oh-so-lovely sight of Super Mutant clutter, such as meat totems, meat bags, and meat carts</li>
<li>Raider clutter, complete with poles, cages, and tents</li>
<li>Abstract and portrait paintings, if you want to refine the Wasteland a bit</li>
<li>A variety of new signs to put up</li>
<li>And new metal and wood door variants</li>
</ul>
<p>As for fixes, as usual there have been some overall stability and performance improvements. More specifically Bethesda has:</p>
<ul>
<li>Resolved the issue during ‘Rocket’s Red Glare’ where companions couldn’t be dismissed afterward</li>
<li>Fixed the issue with the ‘Kremvh’s Tooth’ quest not spawning properly</li>
<li>Settlements under attack will now display updated messages with attack results if the player doesn’t respond</li>
<li>Fixed Rank 4 of the Demolition Expert Perk so it actually increases the area effect of explosives now</li>
<li>Fixed the issue with the Sandman and Ninja Perks combining and then applying the incorrect damage bonus</li>
<li>Fixed the keycards not spawning correctly in Vault 75</li>
<li>Fixed the Pip-Boy getting stuck when in switching weapons quickly whilst wearing Power Armor and in first-person</li>
<li>Fixed the persistent quicksave and autosave messages during loading screens</li>
<li>Fixed the issue where scrapping large quantities of a single item would inadvertently scrap a legendary item</li>
<li>Fixed it to where The Scribe can be properly assigned consecutive settlements</li>
<li>Fixed vendors not properly exchanging caps after several transactions in a row</li>
<li>On Xbox One, fixed the issue where updating with the latest patch would cause the Options settings to reset to default.</li>
</ul>
