📋 About This Mod

This mod overhauls the room given to the player in Vault 81.

It also adds a gym, a laundry room and a shower area for maximum immersion (like holy crap these poor people didn't have showers or washing machines). In order for V81 to actually be a viable player home, I also added all workbenches (cooking, chem, armor, weapon and power armour) and made Alexis have more than 100 caps on her.

If you want to also have Armoursmith Workbench and Weaponsmith workbench from AWKCR, use the alternative version that adds those too.

The room has 2 magazine racks, a Bobblehead stand (shelf) and lots of storage.

:: REQUIREMENTS ::

Fallout 4 up to date

:: FEATURES ::

• All crafting stations

• Surgery chair at the clinic

• Functional terminal so you can play hologames etc.

• Better merchant

• Murshive facilities for the vault

:: GENERAL INFO ::

• I tested on a new and old save and everything enabled properly.

• YES EVERYTHING IS STATIC YOU FENG SHUI RUINING UNDESIGNERS. Can't have you barging in at night after drinking too much Bobrow's Brew and knocking over my precious decorations.

• Once the main quest for Vault 81 has been completed, the room items will activate

• There will be a map marker that lets you travel directly into the Atrium, plus I have enabled fast traveling out of the Vault 81 too

• Workbenches outside your room are linked to cloud storage, it might take a moment for the game to recognise that.

• Made with F4CK, cleaned with FO4Edit
