About this mod
Another idea I wanted to finish up while waiting for Starfield to develop. (Blueprint and Clipboard pattern file included)
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
The Story:
After becoming director of the Institute, a new direction was chosen. The needs of the growing population warranted ever increasing demands for power. So, it was determined to increase the staff at the newly refurbished Hydroelectric facility. Then to increase efficiency, a town was built to house all the new workers. Progress in a new world continues forward.
Introduction:
Thought I'd finish this up while waiting on Starfield to develop. Thanks to Greekrage for adding this settlement to the Commonwealth (Insanity aka Salvage Site 13) (also removed any radioactivity). It's really a great spot that includes a large build area that's on the side of a mountain. Very unique for Fallout 4. Another great location added by Greekrage is The View in Far Harbor.
Some Background:
I'm not really a settlement builder but do enjoy building in Fallout 4. I create these builds for my own enjoyment, and there are no plans to update them (unless I really want to). Also, this comes as is and works fine on my pc, although other user experiences may vary. I just hope that others can enjoy using this as much as I enjoyed building it.
I also build with the idea of using as few mods as is necessary. So, most of the mods I use have been chosen because they are comprehensive and include many different pieces. I usually have many different ideas for builds in the works because ideas for one particular build may dry up or I just become bored after spending 50-60 hours on it.
*Also included is a Clipboard Resurrection pattern file (pattern.ini) that's much quicker than Transfer Settlements and doesn't include its requirements.
Recommended Mods:(highly recommended)
Workshop Plus (allows flying while in workshop mode among other options and makes moving around in a build much easier and really can add to your creativity) (just don't forget to shut off the workshop 5 second timer (F5) (from Place Everywhere))
Build High - Expanded Settlements 5.0 (doesn't work with Workshop Anywhere but offers 200+ floors and expanded boundaries in vanilla settlements) (great for any arial builds like skyscrapers/aircraft/spacecraft etc...)
Place Everywhere (of course) (If I could only choose one building mod for Fallout 4, this would be it.)
Installation:
* Make sure that you have F4SE, HUD Framework and Transfer Settlements installed.
* Extract the file "Data" and copy, then paste to your Fallout 4 game folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4).
* This blueprint uses slot 22. If you would rather it be a different folder, create another folder and number it (1-100) in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data\F4SE\Plugins\TransferSettlements\blueprints. Then add the .json file to the folder.
* The easiest way I've found to add a blueprint is to create a shortcut to the blueprint folder and place it on my desktop. Then when I download a new blueprint I can extract it, copy it, go right to the blueprint folder and either paste the new folder or create a new folder and place the .json file in it. Done!
Importing:
Follow the instructions for adding the Insanity aka Salvage Site 13 mod by Greekrage.
Just follow the import directions below for Clipboard Resurrection. Although, for importing the Blueprint just standing next to the workshop will work fine.
Import the settlement via the Transfer Settlements holotape, detailed instructions on this process can be found on the Transfer Settlements mod page.
Also, before importing and to ensure the settlement imports correctly always import and export on the STABLE (preset), not normal. Then always use Marker Based, where it will open the workshop while it's importing or exporting so it simulates you actually building manually.
To import, enable the following options from within the holotape:
*[Enable Import DLC items
*[Enable Import mod-added items
*[Enable Import or nuke marker-based items
*[Enable Import wired power connections
*[Enable Restore snapped power connections
Using the Clipboard Resurrection pattern file:
After extracting the files from your download, copy/paste the Clipboard pattern (pattern.ini) to a folder located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data\F4SE\Plugins\Clipboard.
Then while in game:
* Build the clipboard tool.
* Choose "Move To Pattern Source Location" in the action menu first.
* Then choose "Paste From Clipboard".
Special Note: After importing the pattern file, Clipboard doesn't seem to include the animations that come with the two SOE generators in the main building. It's an easy fix though. Just replace each piece one at a time from the workshop menu (Power/SOE/Generators). Using Place Everywhere, highlight/copy the coordinates of the 1st piece with '=', scrap it, then paste the new piece in using '0' (two keys to the left). Repeat process for the 2nd one.
Special Note: If you enjoy building in Fallout 4 and are on Facebook, the best building groups I've found are the Fallout 4 Settlement Building and Fallout 4: Commonwealth Creators groups. They include some of the best builders in the Fallout community. They also include builders of all skill levels and can answer any questions you might have about mods, materials, or techniques used for building in Fallout 4.
