FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, DO NOT SWAP THE MANNEQUINS IF THEY ARE WEARING ANYTHING.
YOU WILL LOSE ALL THE ITEMS! I REPEAT. DO NOT SWAP THEM MANNEQUINS UNLESS THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY EMPTY!!
!! READ THIS !!
I couldn't get the supply lines and sending companions here to work. I have the settlement quest and prerequisites set up but for some reason it doesn't fully work.
If someone wants to help with that I would muchly appreciate!
The house comes with a basement that is accessed from outside. Build all your custom mod-added workbenches etc. there, or add beds for your friends and so on.
Use the three buttons in the house to customise it:
Swap mannequin sex
Change radio from DC radio to Institute
or the colourful retro patterns upstairs, into some more plain ones
:: RECOMMENDED MODS ::
- Rename Anything by registrator2000 so you can rename the storage containers like dressers if you'd like
- Place Everywhere for awesome settlementbuildery times
:: KNOWN ISSUES ::
- When exiting the mirror chargen, draw a gun to fix the third person glitch !!
- Weapon barrel, bookcase and gear storage etc. don't have quick loot, they're activators and work differently from "normal containers"
