Fallout 4

(1) Install Transfer Settlements

  • info and video tutorials can be found at TS´s ´description`
  • help requests can be directed towards TS´s ´comments`


(2) Download the Blueprint



(3) Unpack the Blueprint

to ... "/Fallout4/Data/F4SE/Plugins/Transfer Settlements/1*
        (* 1-50 are the possible folders | 1 folder = 1 blueprint)

Problem: There is no such folder!
Solution: Your first blueprint. Enter Fallout 4 to import a settlement. That action creates the folder.


(4) Import the Blueprint Ingame

Before Import:
  • only nuke everything when you scrapped lots of the original items
    don´t forget to match "import original items" with your nuking decision
  • animals don´t get nuked | if you import animals - they are added to existing ones

Extra Stability:
  • run ´stable preset` in Transfer Settlements
  • run Transfer Settlements .esp last in your nexus mods list
  • disable 4k textures in steam!
  • disable place everywhere, scrapall, scrap everything etc.
  • run low graphics

During Import:

  • sit still - in a performance friendly corner
    (don´t touch anything, don´t talk to settlers or companion)
  • check the status bar from time to time to detect possible game freezes

After Import:
  • make a savegame & load it
  • travel far away (out of the game cell)
  • dont come back for an ingame week
