Can i still got Steam Achievements while i'm using mods?
I want to play the game with mods but it said that when i enable mods, i will no longer receive achievements until i disable all my mods. Does the achievements on Steam and In-game is different like i can still get achievements on Steam?

Answering the question directly, no. Steam achievements are disabled if running mods, unless one is using a mod or direct code-patch that re-enables achievements with mods.

The issue here is that technically the PC version of FO4 is the exact same as the console versions, and the console versions do the same thing. Why Bethesda didn't make an exception for us PC users is beyond me, but I strongly suspect lazy programmers involved.

Not lazy programming, it was a design choice. Just my :cozyfallout4::cozyfallout4:, but it's really, really unnecessary in a SP game. I think it was probably an inhibitor test for FO76, initially anyway.

Also, ini changes and F4SE scripts do not disable achievements, only esp mods seem to.

And the reason they did it likely comes down to two things.:

It's not really hard to make a mod that would then just grant every single one of those achievements as soon as you start your game.

And encourages people to at least play through a no mod or light mod run in the first place, instead of having a mod list 500 lines long before they even start their first game.

Well I don't play with mods but when they make the game take forever to load when you have a high end system then it sucks when you have to use a mod to get the game to load faster. Then it disables the achievements because they can't make the game run on higher end systems.
