| '''File Extension:''' <code>.ini</code>

| The '''Initialization File''' format is an informal standard for storing application [[Configurations]].
| | '''File Extension:''' .ini |
| These files are normally only loaded once when an application is starting up.
| |
| The configuration format is a <code>section</code> followed by multiple <code>property=value</code>.
| |
| | |
| ==INI Custom==
| |
| Using a ''custom'' initialization file will preserve your changes after [[Fallout 4]] or the [[Creation Kit]] update.
| |
| This is useful becuase the ''default'' initialization files are overwritten by application updates.
| |
| The ''*Custom.ini'' suffixed files work by overriding values in their parent ''default'' initialization files.
| |
| Override values in the ''default'' files by only adding settings which are intended to be changed to the custom ini.
| |
| Both [[Fallout 4]] and the [[Creation Kit]] support ''custom'' initialization files.
| |
| | |
| For Fallout 4, create a new, empty file called [[Fallout4Custom.ini]] within the user directory.

| To extend the Creation Kit mod list when uploading mods to Bethesda.net, add the following line to [[CreationKitCustom.ini]]:

| ==INI Fragments==
| |
| Any active [[Data File]] can override values in [[Fallout4.ini]] by including a new <code>*.ini</code> file that shares the same name.
| |
| Including ''INI Fragments'' with Playstation distributions is not supported. There are a number of ''INI Fragments'' that will work on Xbox; however if they are considered "dangerous" on PC, they are equally dangerous for console.

| *A standard [[Text Editor]] can create and edit initialization files.

| | These are settings files that store values by <code>section.property.value</code>. These files are normally only loaded once when an application is starting up. |
