📋 About This Mod
Please visit us on Discord:
This patch allows running the Legacy Minuteman Watchtowers mod with the new Minuteman Watchtowers (Redux).
Do you still enjoy the original Minuteman Watchtowers? This replacer Minuteman Watchtowers.esp will allow you to use it with the new Minuteman Watchtowers.
Deleted the records for moved precombine items at 3 towers to prevent breaking precombines.
Tower 1 deleted since it uses the same footprint as a tower in the new Redux version.
Both the old and new mods are required.
The old Watchtower mod plugin is replaced by this plugin.
The new Watchtower mod version does not matter.
Be sure to use and endorse Spiffyskytrooper's mods.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested with 280 endorsements and 37,650 downloads—clearly works for a lot of people.
- Solves a specific compatibility headache if you're torn between the old and new watchtower mods.
- Simple purpose: no bloat, just makes two mods play nice together.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in December 2022—might be outdated if the main mods have updated since then.
- Only useful if you actually want both watchtower mods; otherwise, it's pointless.
For Fallout 4 settlement builders who've used the classic Minuteman Watchtowers and want to try the Redux version without losing their old setups. Skip if you only use one version or don't care about watchtowers.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have both watchtower mods installed before adding this patch, and load the patch after them in your load order.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, let it handle the load order automatically—just enable the patch and let the manager sort it.
- Check the original mod pages for any updates that might affect compatibility, since this patch hasn't been updated since 2022.
