stebbinsd Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 As you guys can see from this thread ... https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/4779755-pre-war-building-styles/ ... I like to make this look nice when I build my settlements. The mod "Homemaker - Expanded Settlements" provides a lot of great-looking pre-war and institute textures to work with. But there's just one problem: They're all either furniture or decorations. For starters, there aren't even any wall decorations that cover entire wall segments. So getting rid of all that butt-ugly wood is impossible. With floor decorations, there are some added floor decorations that cover entire floor sections. I've personally taken a liking to a blue floor with a yellow outline near (but not at) the far left the "floor decorations" menu. But even that has its problems: The floor decorations don't snap together like the floors themselves do. So, I find myself spending upwards of two minutes each just trying to get each individual rug to be as straight as they can be without overlap. When trying to build entire 100 x 100 settlements, with multiple floors, this is hair-rippingly infuriating! And then there's the ceiling. As far as the interior is concerned, ceilings have absolutely nada in terms of decorations that can hopefully make the homes look pre-war. Can somebody either add a mod of your own, or get the makers of Homemaker (since I know it's a group project) to add several structures - not just decorations and furniture - that have clean, pre-war textures of various colors? Pre-war blue floors that snap together to create seemless blue, pre-war flooring ... or maybe a series of black-and-white checkered floors for the kitchen area. Walls in ten different colors, all clean as a whistle, and ceilings that are flat as a pancake (and therefore, can still have extra floors built on top of them), but that are white on the bottom, so it creates a nice illusion of having a white ceiling. But the most important part is that ... they have to be able to snap together! This is the biggest issue for me! Make it easy for me to create great-looking pre-war houses that have neither overlap nor gaps! Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stebbinsd Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 Actually, since posting this thread, I've discovered "Alternate Settlements." However, I've got a bug. And this bug is present in nearly every (though not every single one) mod I've downloaded that purports to add new items for me to build. The items are all invisible! I've got the materials to build them, but they just don't show up when I scroll over to them! It's not even like I'm missing a perk (such as "Science" or "gun nut"), because in vanilla, when that happens, they at least show up in the horizontal menu at the bottom! Here's a screenshot to show you what I'm talking about. So, as you can see, the textures for these objects ... just ... aren't ... showing ... up! Just to repeat: This isn't an "Alternate Settlements" problem, which is why I'm not contacting the modder over this problem. This is problem with nearly EVERY mod I've downloaded (with Homemaker being a notable exception) that tries to add new building items. So odds are a thousand to one that the problem is on my end. What do I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
