To enable loose files in Fallout 4, you'll need to tweak a couple of files. First, head to your Fallout 4 directory (usually found within your Documents\My Games\Fallout4 folder). Open up the 'Fallout4Custom.ini' file with a text editor like Notepad. Add the following lines under the [Archive] section: bInvalidateOlderFiles=1 and sResourceDataDirsFinal=. This tells the game to load the loose files. Save the changes, and you're all set!
