I thought one of you complained about some update or patch earlier this week. I just opened Steam on my backup/Folding exclusive PC and I didn't get any updates or patches for Fallout 4. This is an identical System Image I extracted from my main PC last week and I just got it up and running a few days ago. When exactly did you get this problem causing update?
 
I got a real stumper on my hands here. If either of you or anyone else has ever seen this and has a fix for it let me know. It's not causing any problems, it's just some kind of a 'ghost' image stuck in my Steam app. It's even on this PC that only has a single 980 ti Classified. If you look closely you'll see my clock rates, voltage and temps from my dual 980 PC. It only appears in my Games Library panel.
 





 
I saw something regarding "ghosting" but did not follow it through. The download I was referring to was a lag issue but that's not to say that it may also cause ghosting. It may depend on your system and how it is configured. If you haven't done so, I would power that system completely down, then press the power button to start it up. You may have to redo your Steam download to insure you didn't get anything to corrupt it.
 
I do know that when on the Fallout 4 selection in your library there will be some screen shots of it in the back ground. Maybe this is causing an issue also.

Yep, you nailed it with the Screenshot ghosting through the Steam Client. I had to restart Steam after I deleted the copies. It was the online copy causing me issues. I deleted the local copy in my Steam folder and still had the image after closing and restarting Steam. Here is the little nuisance that did it:

I was comparing it to when you would burn an image into one of those old CRT monitors. You're not playing with that old Proton Pack you had laying around in the garage, are you?

Zuhl,
 
You said that you have used the "God mode" a few times. My question to you is: Have you noticed your settlement population numbers when using it? From what I have seen the stats are maxed out during the "God mode" usage and charisma is needed to raise the population numbers.

I didn't notice any change in my stats. It's just that I don't have to reload and my health is maxed out.

From what I saw in some videos, when in "God mode" all your stats are maxed out. That's why I was wondering about the charisma and your settlement population.
 
As far as reloading, I have a .45 CAL that has unlimited ammo. It doesn't work when Cait uses it. So now I just buy shotgun shells and .45 ammo.

Which 'stats' are you asking about? Perks? Special? Here are two screenshots with Godmode enabled and disabled:

The fastest way to ruin a game is "godmode" imo. I gave myself ammo when I was using an exploding mini gun but even then, things were almost too easy. I didn't think god mode had anything to do with your perks and such.

I never used it before and was even offended when someone suggested that I use it when I was having a difficult time with a game as I considered it to be hacking. That was six years ago and my reflexes have diminished considerably since then. After suffering a heart attack and then a minor stroke that crippled the middle fingers of my right hand things are different now. It's only in Single Player and doesn't affect anyone else's game so what does it matter? If it weren't for 'godmode' being a Console Command, playing this game would be impossible for me and not the least bit enjoyable to say the least.
