Carry Weight bug ?

[Zarakaï]

Hey I was wondering if someone experienced variations of the max carry weight. I was exploring HalluciGen building when suddenly my carry weight dropped from 330 to 280. The thing is, I'm still under the Mysterious Serum effect ( from the Cabot quest ) which is supposed to add +5 in strength, so my carry weight should be really high. I thought it was because og the gas in the building, ut now I'm out and it doesn't change a thing, quite annoying.

I took a Buffout and my carry weight went from 280 to 300.

Now it has decreased to 230... it seems that every time I take the Mysterious Serum it removes 50 instead of adding 50 ( force + 5 ) but PERMANENTELY !

If it is a bug, and it could well be. ..
You might be hosed.
To compensate for Bethesda granting you a game feature like this ...
you might be forced to resort to console.
modav carryweight
via instructions you find here
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_4_console_commands
You can adjust taht up and down safely. Do not use forceav

Just avoid going nuts and it wont be a cheat, just compensate for the glitch.
Sadly, this is the case with these games, we often have to resort to console
to compensate for bugs n glitches that wont get fixed for months, if ever.
This is the joy of TES engine.

Yeah I used the console, thanks. I'm pretty sure modders will fix this before Bethesda, lots of people seems to have different bugs with the carry weight.

I noticed a bug with my deep pocketed armor modded gear and using my power armor, every time I got in and out of my power I lost 10 carry weight permanently. My character has 9 strength and has maxed strong back perk yet now can only has 160 max carry weight now. Had to use console to restore max carry weight and ditch the mods on my armor to avoid the bug.

Yeah I have a deep pocketed armor too. So when we exit the PA the carry weight goes down to the one without pocketed, and then when we remove the pocketed pieces it reduces the carry weight again. Great...

Entering power armor overrides the bonuses of your worn armor, as well as the armor value itself. It doesn't stack with power armor. Go into PA fully suited in pocketed leather, and go into naked, makes no difference.

I'd say he figured it out by now.

There was a bug back then when I made the comment which was almost 2 years ago shortly after the game come out. The bug was glitch between the pocket armor pieces and the power armor which reduced total carry weight every time you entered and exited the power armor. After played the game and having carry weight eventually drop down to under 20 and when the pocketed armor pieces were taken off the carry limit dropped below 0 and the game crashed. It was fixed around about the time of the first DLC and is not an issue anymore.

there is a Carry Weight bug with anything that give Carry Weight (not counting food cause this seems to work properly), i have 239/265 in freedoms call i get in that power armor & i am suddenly encumbered 239/235, same are with armors when u make them pocketed or deep pocketed that they actually decrease ur Carry Weight ur increase the Weight itself u see in inventory & then u become encumbered, but it doesn't happen all the time, its first time this happened to me with power armor, usually it happened with armor



my question is, is there a fix for it? it drives me nuts in survival mode
