Usually my problems can be traced back to a specific mod I installed but this one came up before I ever installed any. I know Fallout 4 is buggy and patches are coming and such but all I'm wondering is if anyone else has experienced this yet or it's just my save. Haven't come across any similar problems through searching. When I try to place a junk item such as a lamp or a cooking pot on top of a piece of furniture in workshop mode, it locks in place perfectly. But after a few reloads or fast travels to the settlement, all of the items have started falling through the furniture. I suspected it may result from picking up and dropping the floor or prefab or whatever the furniture was attached to but after testing, this is not the case. I've even tried placing things with collision turned off. There's still some kind of black hole under my settlement that's sucking every item into the floor. Anyone else? Am I doomed to never be able to properly decorate my house?

Can you recommend a tutorial for cleaning mods?

Everytime I activate a bed to sleep, the time slider pops up for a second and then disappears, leaving me unable to sleep. Any idea what is causing this? Here's my BOSS load:

Try unchecking the Feng Shui keymap template .esp. This is only for changing the default hotkeys. It worked for me.

Hmm, thanks for all input, guys! I really appreciate it. I know this can be done by simply opening the GECK and putting furniture down where you want it, but I still think this would be a cool, and easier option for less experienced players. If I ever find the time to learn such skills, perhaps this summer, I've got a great starting point! Thanks again.

Okay, thanks. That makes sense. I could probably figure it out eventually with enough time, but I doubt I have the time available to learn such a skill. Does anyone else know about the legality of this? I hadn't considered it. I'm a teacher, so let's say come summer, I find myself with enough free time to attempt to learn about collision meshes, I wouldn't want to be doing anything I'm not supposed to.

Okay, so I'm gonna take a wild shot and ask for something. I'm not experienced with modding. (I've given it a good try.) But I'm hoping someone out there can grant my wish. I'm a pack rat, and I love collecting unique in-game items and decorating my home. Two of my favorite mods are NVInteriors--because it allows me to collect clutter items that are normally not able to be placed in the inventory, like TVs and fans--and Feng Shui--which allows me to place them in an endless variety of combinations in my homes. One thing I noticed, however, was that sometimes I want to put a TV down on something or display some items on a table, but there simply isn't a suitable piece of furniture available. So I got the idea of making furniture that could be picked up in the inventory and placed (using Feng Shui) to manuever and lock it. I searched, but couldn't find anything like this. So I tried to make my own mod. (First attempt.) I got as far as extracting a bookcase .nif from the Meshes BSA and tried to create an item with it and place it in Doc Mitchell's house. I could pick it up, but dropping it left it floating in the air. I could move it with Feng Shui but after a minute or so, it stopped being able to be picked up, moved, or even stopping me walking through it. I'm frustrated, and am now looking to the greater mod community for something like this. I would love to see a mod that maybe had a furniture store, and you could buy bookcases, tables, file cabinets, desks, etc., and then bring them home to place. They could have increased weight for (semi-)realism and maybe a second version where everything weighs 1 for those that just wanna get the stuff home. I think this would be a fantastic mod! And I hope there's someone out there with the skill to accomplish this. Please let me know if I'm out of my mind, too, and this is not a feasible idea. Thank you.
