📋 About This Mod
This is a simple compatibility patch to resolve conflicts between The New Settlers and Better Settlers. You must have both mods installed and placed before this patch in your load order.
Face and body presets are taken from The New Settlers for vanilla NPCs, and the new gear lists from Better Settlers are applied to the new NPCs added by The New Settlers. The NPC leveled lists (spawn lists) from each are merged, so that you have a chance of getting settlers from either mod and vanilla Fallout.
This is the first release (and the first mod I've published). I don't think there will be any bugs, but as always, back up your saves.
Made with FO4Edit.
A compatibility patch that allows The New Settlers and Better Settlers mods to work together in Fallout 4. With 704 endorsements and 7,684 downloads, it's a small but proven fix for players using both mods. Last updated in January 2016.
