    Q: I'm crashing when I go into the crafting section of the settement building menu. After the new Fallout patch, this problem no longer causes CTD, instead the benches are invisible. The fix is the same.

    A: Crashing when hovering over the crafting category is caused by your game not being able to locate the custom models needed to render the workbenches. There are three possible reasons and solutions for this:

    1) You do not have ArchiveInvalidation properly set up in your Fallout4.ini. This is required for the game to use custom assets.

    2) NMM failed/was prevented to properly extract the asset files when installing the mod. Check that there are files in Data\Meshes\AWKCR. If not, extract them manually from the .zip and put them there.

    3.You have your NMM virtual install on a different hard drive than your Fallout 4 install.

    Those are the 3 main causes, there have been people that haven't been helped by those 3 fixes because the problem wasn't caused by their installation of this mod. Here's a couple solutions to their situations.

    Here is what was a solution for Yopoman
    "I FOUND THE CULPRIT! Turns out there was a folder in my DATA directory called "INTERFACE", I went ahead and deleted that folder after doing some reading of various forum posts, apparently the .SWF files in there can get messed up. I was uninstalling all my mods systematically, and couldn't fix the CTD but after deleted the "INTERFACE" directory and deleting the "Interface.ba2" file in the FO4 DATA folder I went and verified my game integrity through Steam and VOILA! No more CTD when using crafting stations. "

    Here is what was a solution for BenScott777
    "I have figured it out. So I am running windows 10 and I just found out that my computer has not only placed a Fallout 4 folder in my disk drive C, but also made a copy in the cloud service from microsoft called OneDrive. The changes to the ini i made in My Games/Fallout 4 didn't matter because the game was reading the inis that were in the OneDrive/My games/Fallout 4 instead of the ones actually stored on my computer. So it seems a lot of people are having the same issue I have been so it may be worth adding to the FAQ the idea to check if OneDrive is storing a copy of Fallout 4 and prioritizing that instead. "

    If none of these solutions fix this problem for you then I don't know what you did wrong.

    Game crashes when inspecting/ picking up weapons that open in the inspect menu. When without AWKCR everything works fine.

      This mod doesn't add recipes for stuff itself, the exception being some ammo components. You need to install mods that use this mods crafting benches.

    Worst mod ever. After downloading this, all of my modded armors and weapons fail to show properly and are invisible. No amount of messing with NMM seems to fix it.

    Time to re-download the entire game it seems - thanks for nothing.

      Wow, wtg necro , !! feel better now you got that out the way ...
      It is not the fault of AWKCR teams mod that caused your problem or issue, you caused your problem, you missed / failed reading something in the description if read any at all , ...
      Or you didnt download it properly via a mod manager or manual download and install, you dont mention doing a manual install, try that instead and there is a lot info given to help everybody, just some skim too much , perhaps that's what you've done ?
      Fyi - not the worse mod ever in my book . take time to read more info grab a coffee while your reading ..

      sounds like you are missing the ini tweaks that allow the game to use custom assets.

    Everytime I install this mod and I try to go any point near the city (random spots, notebly when swimming from Northagen beach to the BOS blimp) the game will CTD, litterally the only mod I installed that needs AWKCR was Alient Assault Rifle. No other mod depends on AWKCR. As soon as I disable AWKCR I am able to play for hours non-stop without crash, just enable it (even without the alient blaster enabled) game will CTD. I've had this with multiple playethroughs since March and have updated and tried different versions ever since (and have completely different mods each playthrough every couple of months). I really want to install this mod since there is so many other mods that need it, but ever since I first tried this mod, it always just CTD's my game.

      That's very weird. This mod doesn't make any worldspace edits, so I have no idea why your having this issue.

    i mention this here question on this file page cause its happening involving armor keywords more than any other file, ive very little doubt that its really been caused by Bethesda updates

    ever since a long series of jobs and loads of time away from F04 since the updates kept me from playing it i may have missed something about how to fix this but ive been having a problem where my game utterly fails to understand that its files are infact loaded properly despite the its near constant complaints that they arent loaded when in fact they are....

    Background Loader: Fatal: <Exception: "Weapons of Fate - Bright Bullet Tracers.esp" requires master "Weapons of Fate.esp" to be loaded before it.>
    Background Loader: Fatal: <Exception: "ArmorKeywords.esm" requires master "DLCcoast.esm" to be loaded before it.>

    but every single file its claims isnt loaded where its supposed to be is in fact very much so exactly where it needs to be.
    i feel like its saying stupid s#*! like "A" needs to be loaded before "B" in the alphabet which of course it is. i reinstalled files multiple times and nothing will work anyone know whats going on?

      I don't know, try making sure your plugin.txt matches your load order from NMM.

    I keep getting the error message AWKCRPatch - UFO4P.esp missing and then CTD when I try to load my save, does anyone have a fix for this?

      The error message is normal since that plugin is no longer needed now that UFO4P is a fake esm. But you shouldn't be crashing over it. Try grabbing AWKCRPatch - UFO4P.esp from an old version and install and activate it. Go to a small interior cell and save and quit. Then uninstall AWKCRPatch - UFO4P.esp and see if you have any better luck loading without it.

    Sorry to post this here as i'm probably certain this isn't a bug. Or at least isn't a bug caused by the mod. But the other 2 associated forum sections for this mod looked even less related to my issue than this one.

    The latest version I have of the mod {3.0.2} Installs and simply asks if you have the Vanilla game, or you have ALL DLC. No option for different types of DLC as far as I can see. Now since I have the season pass I DO in fact have all the DLC content. However when I try to select this option the mod tells me this may cause system instability because I don't have something, or I have something it dosent like I cant remember which, and asks me to confirm if this is what I want to do. So I said yes, it then again advised me in a different way that something about mods I have may cause system instability, and asks me again if I want to select ALL DLC, which I do. I have many different mods, but not very many that have to do with armor or weapons, and I only have ones that state they use AWKCR and in fact I found out I needed to install this mod to use them. Ex: Armoursmith Extented, Valdici's Item Sorting, SuitDreams, and a few others. I did a update check with NMM which is how I found out about the new version of this mod. but none of the others that I see that might use AWKCR said there were any new updates. How is this check that AWKCR is performing being done and is there any way to identify what mods it belives are a problem? And as far as other mod updates is this simply an issue of Nuka World being so new that probably alot of modders have not had a chance to update their mods yet if there are updates needed?

    Thank You

    SOLVED: Found info in another forum related to the mod.

      all the dlc plugins must be activated in the NMM plugin tab before installing this.

    If you're unfortunate enough to have this issue (crashes when you hit the crafting menu) , I have found a solution. All you need to do is download the main file through NMM and then, go to your DATA folder in the Fallout 4 directory. Go to the FILES section of this mod page, and download the fix for invisible workbench. Put the files in the MESHES folder in that file in your MESHES folder for Fallout 4. Tell me if this works!

      I did this yet it still crashes when I go over the crafting menu, I've tried all other fixes, yet the issue persists. I really would like to have this mod, the small amount of armor/customization in vanilla really bugs me.

    Well, after patch 1.5 my game crashed with the black screen at start. I deactivated all mods, then tried to reactivate all one by one. In my case, the problem was due to this mod. All other mods works properly, and I resume gaming... All my best

      I so far have only version 2.3.0 working. But when I try and install version 2.4.0 the game crashes at load up. I have all DLC and I noticed that when I install 2.4.0 is shows DLCworkshop02.esm in red. I have DLCworkshop01.esm not 02. Is there a wasteland workshop patch that I need to make it DLCworkshop02.esm?
