Fallout 4’s Beta Update brings new features and plenty of fixes to the PC

Bethesda's Fallout 4 PC community has been doing fairly well acting as the developer's guinea pigs with all of the beta updates.  Fallout 4's most recent PC patch, the 1.4.124 beta update, has brought a number of new features and fixes to the game.

Specifically speaking, the PC will see further support for add-ons and will have more customization in the Workshop. As far as fixes go, scrap shipments will no longer duplicated and vendors will now properly exchange caps after several consecutive transactions (thieving jerks).
