1. DESCRIPTION
===============
"Better Armoury Mod (BAM) - Weapon Racks and More" adds a selection of new Workshop items to Fallout 4, all themed around building armoury or gunsmith-workshop type locations. Weapon racks, ammo cans, appropriately-themed posters, etc. The items in BAM should help you to create a more convincing weapon workshop or armoury than is possible with just the peg-board weapon racks from the Contraptions DLC.
This mod was split off from Project Extend And Change Everything (PEACE), so its objects are duplicates of those found in PEACE. If you want to use PEACE, you should uninstall BAM first.
See the Playing The Mod section below for detailed information on the items added by BAM and how to use them.
On a personal note, I realised recently (at the time of writing) that 2019 marks twenty years since I first released a mod on the Internet. (That's just releasing mods - I've been making them for longer still. I must be getting old.)
One reason for BAM's release is to mark the occasion - so here's to twenty years of releasing mods. :-)

3. INSTALLATION/UNINSTALLATION
========================
Installation:
- Install Settlement Menu Manager first if you haven't already.
- Simply install BAM as usual using a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager, Mod Organiser or Vortex.
--- A manual install should be fine too, but I'll just assume you know what you're doing there.
- After installation, all BAM files - including the readme (please read the readme) - will be found in your \Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 4\Data\ directory.
- BAM should be okay virtually anywhere in your load order, but please see the Conflicts/Known Issues section for information on any potential conflicts.
- BAM uses an ESL-flagged ESP plugin, so it will not take up a load order "slot".
Uninstallation:
- As is generally the case with Fallout 4 mods, this is not recommended for ongoing save-games. It's better to wait until you'
Adds a selection of new Workshop items themed around building armouries or gunsmith workshops, including weapon racks, ammo cans, and themed posters. A popular settlement-building mod with over 4,200 endorsements and 214k downloads, last updated in December 2022.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 4,212 endorsements and 214k downloads show it's a go-to for settlement builders.
- Fills a niche: weapon racks and ammo cans are perfect for creating immersive armouries.
- Themed posters add extra flair for gunsmith workshops without needing extra mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in December 2022 — may have compatibility issues with newer game patches.
- Only adds Workshop items — no gameplay changes or new mechanics, so if you want functional storage, this might not cut it.
For Fallout 4 settlement builders who want to create detailed armouries or gunsmith workshops. If you're into role-playing or immersive base design, this adds the right props. Skip if you're looking for functional weapon storage or gameplay tweaks — this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or NMM to install and manage this mod easily.
- Check your load order: place this mod after other settlement mods to avoid conflicts.
- In Workshop mode, look for a new category or search for 'armoury' to find the items.
