About this mod

I revisited Croup Manor and decided to rebuild the settlement, whilst keeping the main building mostly intact. I installed The Clean and Simple Croup Manor startup by jenncave and built the settlement using jenncave's main building and colour theme.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
I usually download one of jenncave's Clean and Simple start up series, delete or scrap everything and then start from scratch. This time I decided to keep the main building mostly intact, with the exception of two walls on the 1st floor, the roof decking and some railings (these were removed in normal build mode). So I downloaded Clean and Simple Croup Manor Startup by jenncave and decided to try and create a lore friendly settlement around that theme. 

What did I remove?
(see pictures)
  • 2 walls on the first floor to allow access to the balcony.
  • The deck roof and replaced it with a balcony.
  • A couple of railings and deck steps and replaced them with a wraparound deck.
  • A couple of rocks that poked through the floor.
No further changes were made to the exterior or interior of the building, including the cellar.

What did I add?
(see pictures)
  • 2 doors on the first floor allowing access to balcony and 1st floor.
  • A wraparound balcony on the 1st floor.
  • A wraparound deck on the ground floor.
  • 6 two storey buildings with staircase (My thoughts were stores on the ground floor, apartments on the 1st).
  • A workshop/room (The workbench and jenncave's steamer trunk have been placed here).
What you need to do:

You should have F4SE, HUDFramework, and Transfer Settlements installed.

  • Download and install Clean and Simple Croup Manor Startup by jenncave  (See Requirements drop down list).
  • Remove 2 walls on 1st floor, deck roof, a couple of railings and deck steps. (See Starting point pictures).
  • Download This file and unzip toC:\ProgramFiles(x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Fallout4/data/f4se/Plugins/TransferSettlements/blueprints/(Paste .json file to empty slot)
  • Download and install required mods (See Requirements drop down list)
  • Import Blueprint from slot you selected and follow blueprint instructions.

If you are not sure what to remove, you could import the blueprint and then delete what is in your way (I highly recommend saving before deleting).

The original Croup Manor is blue, jenncave's Croup Manor is yellow, so I have added wallpaper to the exterior of the whole build to match jenncave's theme, if you wanted to return to the original blue you could remove all the wallpaper in build mode (see before and after wallpaper pictures) (I highly recommend saving before deleting).
This is a TRANSFER SETTLEMENT BLUEPRINT, so you need to have Transfer Settlements by CDante  installed and working.

When you have done that you will only need 2 other mods installed:-
  • Clean and Simple Croup Manor Startup by jenncave
  • Snappy House Kit by robboten
You only need Move that Workbench installed, if you want to move the workbench (Really?)
