ciggggg87 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 After countless play throughs of the main game, I've recently been getting really into the settlement side of things. I've downloaded a tonne of different settlement enhancing mods, that add objects and what not to the menus. I've noticed some of these mods have "pre fab" structures as well. I spent most of yesterday building a house from scratch. I really love the end result and wanted to know if there Is a mod, or does anyone know a way i can turn my house into a pre fab to use on other saves incase this save goes to hell and i cant access it anymore? I know there are mods to save/export your entire settlements which is awesome, but im looking specifically for one that can save just a house that you have built, and can access that house on a different settlement and just plop it down there on a spare bit of land and play around with it? Could an option be to export it to the creation kit, and make it a mod? Is that even possible? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark47 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I think you're on the right track with the creation kit. But you'd have to open the save game where you've built the house. I don't think that's possible. You may need to play with the CK and try to re-create your house in it and save it as an .esp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damanding Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 At this point in time there is no mod that does this and no way to save a building made in game with workshop mode other than as a settlement blueprint with Transfer Settlements. There's no way for the Creation Kit to access anything you built in a settlement either. If you want to use the same building at multiple settlements using workshop mode you'll need to create it as a prefab in the Creation Kit which also requires giving it navcuts that can only be done with 3ds max. Then unless you know a whole lot about scripting you can't have something pre-decorated to plop down, it would be the building only. In order to make your own pre-decorated building that you can place anywhere in workshop mode you need to first build it in Creation Kit, give it navcuts and some other 3ds max stuff, then use scripting like Kinggath does for Sim Settlements to essentially place all the furniture and decor in the building on the fly.

ciggggg87 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks for your input guys :smile: . I think my best option is to play around with the CK and go from there. Thanks damanding, pre decoration was probably hoping for a little too much, but if i can get into CK and just make a pre fab i'll be more than happy with that haha. Wish me luck lol.
