OVERVIEW
Another Diamond City expansion mod. However, DCS was made to be relatively lightweight, extremely compatible with other mods, and bloat-free. You'll wonder how you ever walked around DC without it.
|
ESL Flagged ESP. No broken previs/precombines or vanilla edits. Fully compatible with PRP and UFO4P. Performance impact should be minimal, and almost non-existent if you generate LOD for the cell as detailed below.
|
Install or uninstall at any time.



WHY?
Diamond City's stadium seats are almost completely barren and unused. This is boring; DC citizens and the DC government definitely would have snatched up some of that free prime real estate and built their shacks there by now.

DCS remedies that, adding to the crowded and bustling urban feeling of Diamond City while also attempting to maximize compatibility with other (non Diamond City overhaul) mods.



COMPATIBILITY
- This mod is compatible with Sim Settlements 2, The Bleachers / Fens Sheriff Department, and most other mods that add a location to Diamond City. I left the Bleacher's/SS2's section of the stadium seats untouched, with a generous buffer.
|
- This mod is also compatible with Diamond City Ambience (recommended as it adds a lot of activity to the city), Diamond City Billboards, and most other small Diamond City tweaks. Report any bugs/blocked mod building entrances and I'll remove the DCS building in the next update.
|
- This mod is NOT compatible with other Diamond City overhauls, such as Diamond City Expansion, Diamond in the Rough, and Diamond City Plus. To be fair, I don't think any of these are compatible with each other. This mod is likely not compatible with Diamond City Shanty Town, but these probably won't break anything together, there will just be some heavy and ugly clipping.
|
- Load order for this mod shouldn't matter that much, either load it right before or right after any mods that affect Diamond City.



NOTES:
- While not required to run without issue, it's recommended to regenerate LOD for this mod to minimize performance loss. You'll be fine without it, but I'd recommend regenerating LOD for the Diamond City worldspace and loading that after your existing FO4LODGen Output, just to be safe. It'll be worth it!
|
- You cannot go visit the new buildings; there's simply nothing to explore. You can't even walk on the stands in vanilla anyways. This is to keep this mod free of vanilla edits, and also because there's simply no interior cell for any of the buildings.
|
- I will not be updating the main file to add exploration or interior cells, etc. There are plenty of other mods that do that already, and DCS is supposed to be a lightweight DC overhaul. If I have the time, I might make an optional file that adds a few decorations and additional objects to DC’s main area, but that’ll be seperate from the main file.



That's it, check the images tab to see before and after pics. Enjoy!
