Ever feel your settlements were a bit "lacking?" Want something to help spice up your shack? Homemaker is here to help!
Homemaker is a mod that greatly expands on the vanilla crafting system for settlements, and adds over 1000 new, fully-balanced objects to craft, ranging from cars, to refrigerators to working street lights and everywhere in between! The mod also features a new Institute build set, with placeable snapping walls, floors, stairways and more! Whether you're a mad scientist, longing for the good ol' days, a simple settler, or a sadistic raider, Homemaker has something for you!
1. 79 Update and Bethesda.net port:

Here are a few examples of what the mod adds:
[]7 New Build Sets - Urban Brick Buildings, Coastal Pier Shacks, Institute Houses, Greenhouses, Bunkers, Diners and Warehouses! All sets are as navmeshed as I could possibly make them and should work with NPC's , with the exception of a couple Bunker doors. The brick building set has some known issues, all of which are marked in the items description, but it should be fixed next release.
[]Large prefab buildings, such as Covenant Houses, Radio Towers, and lighthouses, to help give a bit more flavor to your settlements!
[]An overhaul of many of the vanilla categories to make many objects easier to find. The category imprint of this mod is much lighter now.
[]Hundreds of new decorative objects, ranging from cars, to trees, to coffee machines and much, much more! Now includes Institute monitors and other wall-mounted objects
[]New farmable crops - Silt Beans and Tarberries, and working planters like the kind found at Greygarden or Vault 81.
[]New Beds, Chairs, Toilets, Showers, Counters and other household objects, from both pre- and post-war! The beds also all count to your settlements bed total, and yes, bunk beds and double beds count as two separate beds.
[*]Tons of new usable lights ranging from candles, table
