Immersive Soap Trays

There is no soap in any of the regions near Sanctuary, so for someone that plays with Get Dirty on every game this can be a big problem.  Stuck in the start of the game with no soap to get a bath and forced to hop in radiation filled waters trading cleanliness for radiation sickness.  There is a soap tray in the Sanctuary post-war player home bathroom with soap on it but ... you cannot take it!  100% un-im-mer-sive.

This Fallout 4 mod will allow the player to take the piece of soap in the player home bathroom soap tray in the Sanctuary Ruins post-war (i.e. after emerging from Vault 111).  It will also modify the other 6 (total of 7) locations that have soap trays in the base game to allow them to do the same thing.  A separate mod file includes both the base game changes and the other 4 locations that have soap trays in the Far Harbor DLC.

Technical Details

A simple little mod.  Replaced all soap trays (except for the one in the beginning of the game) having fake soap with empty soap trays and a piece of soap.  Created a new "soapless" tray material/mesh/textures and replaced the existing fake soap trays with the new soapless tray and a piece of soap.  I turned off Havok physics engine settling for the placed soaps, so they shouldn't fall out of the trays... well most of the time (huge behemoths and Deathclaws slamming around tend to knock everything around).

Known Issues

Sometimes violent world actions can knock loose the soap from the soap tray, but it will just be sitting on the floor or in the bathtub.

Installation

Install either the Base Game Edition or the Base+DLC Edition, but not both.  The Base+DLC Edition has everything the Base Game Edition has plus support for the official DLCs (only Far Harbor is affected).  Install and uninstall using your favorite mod manager or extract the files to your Fallout 4 Data directory.  This mod shouldn't conflict with other mods.

Recommendations

Let me know if you like this mod or even the concept as there are plenty of other opportunities to allow other static items to be taken like towels (cloth) on towel racks, etc.  There's a lot to be learned about mod making from even a simple mod like this.

Now go pick up that soap and get your 20 seconds washing in!
