Preparation
Before installing the mods, a few other things have to be setup first
1 - If you haven't already, sign up at the Nexus. (LINK)
It's free, and it takes 2 minutes. The Nexus is a great site for mods in general, so it's definitely worth your time.

2 - Downloading and install NexusModManager, 'NMM'. (LINK)

3 - Download and install 'Fallout 4 Script Extender'. (LINK)
Download the latest version, unpack the file and move the content of the F4SE folder into the Fallout 4 game-folder.
Inside the Fallout 4 game-folder, rename 'Fallout4Launcher.exe' to e.g.: 'Fallout4Launcher.exe.backup'.
Then rename 'f4se_loader.exe' to 'Fallout4Launcher.exe'.
4 - Download and install FO4Edit. (LINK)
Unpack and copy the files to any directory, then make a shortcut to 'FO4Edit.exe'.
This tool is used to clean up Bethesda's 'lazy edits' from the official DLC-files. See description in the Cleaning section. (LINK)
5 - Download and install 'Fallout 4 Save Game Editor'.(LINK) *Optional but recommended
Download the latest version and unpack the files to any directory. Make a shortcut to 'F4SGE.exe'.
*If you plan to start a new game after the F4BP installation, this file is not necessary. If you want to continue a saved game, then you probably need this tool. It's used to remove old script data from a save-game file. Unfortunately Fallout 4 store all used scripts in the save-game files, so if you remove a mod that contain scripts, the scripts stay in the save-game and can cause all kinds of errors. This tool can remove these scripts, so you can still use your old save-game file.

7 - Make some coffee and get ready for several hours of downloading and installing. It's a long time, but in the end you will get a result that otherwise would take several months to obtain.
