📋 About This Mod
If anyone has downloaded my Diamond City Plus mod, then you can expect a "light touch" as you travel through the commonwealth wilderness. You may come across a little scene and or object and not even know that it is part of this mod. I just wanted to fill out the wilderness some, since the woods are so barren in vanilla.
Scenes/Objects:
A few examples of this are in the mods pictures. There are similar additions like this placed all over the commonwealth wilderness. You can also expect to find some more downed vertibirds, skeletons, vehicles, abandoned tents, small living areas and much, much more.
As a added bonus the Robotics disposal ground now actually has decommissioned robots laying around (see pics) :)
You will find rabbits, rad chickens, brahmin and radstags throughout your journey in the wilderness and in camps. You may also find aggressive wolves lying in wait in the woods as well.
Compatibility:
This should not conflict with anything (at least that I know of, though I keep a small load order). 99% of the changes are in the wilderness away from commonly modded areas such as Concord, etc.
I also only added a couple objects to the Glowing Sea area, since there are a couple overhauls for that already.
State of the Mod:
This was cleaned with xedit already.
I worked on this over the last few weeks and lost track of all of the areas I added stuff to. If there is an issue with an area or a crash, please let me know where it was, a screen shot would be a big help as well.
----------------------
If you find a little scene or area you like, please upload a pic of it! I kept the pics scarce to start so people can find stuff on their own :)
