📋 About This Mod

Introduction

Although the mod has been out for more than 3 years, I just recently discovered "Handmade Turrets" by Ruinedworld. I love the scuffed design and thought it would fit pretty well in the Commonwealth. So I replaced some of the vanilla floor mounted turrets that were originally in a military design and felt out of place to the handmade turrets for more of an immersive feeling.

A big thank to Degenerate Dak for featuring my mod in his latest video ! (4:52)

I also included in the optional files a file to remove the vanilla machinegun turrets and heavy machinegun turrets from the settlement workshop crafting because the original mod adds the new turrets to the crafting system. I also took the liberty to change the crafting requirements to match the vanilla turrets for balance purposes.

Optional

Babaloo321 made an alternative file which fixes and tweaks some of the feature of my mod.

- Reverts the changes to turrets associated with factions that would likely have the ability and materials to make the Non-Handmade turrets.

- This includes turrets in and around:

- Pre-War Military Installations and Locations

- Gunner Locations

- Railroad Locations

- BoS Locations

- The Castle Basement

- Diamond City

- The U. S. S. Constitution

- Inside Virgil's Cave.

- Tweaked the base game machinegun turret crafting recipes to require certain extra parts (Based on the LLC_Robot_Components_100 Leveled List, which is inside the turret death item Leveled List: LLD_TurretTripod), and add new recipes (Scratch, just raw materials) requiring high skills to add a sense of progression with the Gun Nut and Science! perks.

- Original Handmade Turrets are left alone.

- Vanilla Machine Gun Turret recipe requires:

- 1 Circuitry

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download with the manager and it'll handle the file placement—no manual copying needed.
  • Since it's a replacer, make sure no other mod is overwriting the same turret meshes, or you might see mixed results.
  • Load order doesn't matter much for texture/mesh replacers, but placing it after other mods that edit turrets ensures it takes priority.
