Need some help fixing my build menu

[onefatmess]

Iâm using all of the following mods and dlc (in no particular order):

 

Season Pass with all DLC installed

High res textures DLC

Homemaker: Settlements expanded

Snap n build

OCDecorator

Sim settlements with industrial revolution and rise of the Commonwealth

Scrap everything

Settlements expanded

Thematic and practical

Business Settlement

Do it yourshelf

Nuka World - Skip raiding your own settlements

We are the Minutemen

 

Most of them work fine however after installing Thematic and Practical, Do it yourshelf and business settlements Iâve ran into some issues. Thematic and Practical doesnât appear anywhere in the menu, there is a craftable holotape which works and Iâve tried installing through that but still nothing, the same issue with Do it yourshelf. Business Settlements has added some signs but most are invisable and canât be built. It also seems to have overriden many of the default signs.

 

Apparently I may have the wrong load order and/or uninstalled a previous mod incorrectly. Is there anything I can do to fix this, get the mods working and not screw up my save? Iâm using the nexus mod manager if that helps

It sounds like an uninstall problem, but it can be fixed. You'll probably need to try a variety of menu fixers to get it all back again. Thematic and practical has it's own, and I've used Settlement Objects Expanded's vanilla menu fixer on more than one occasion to fix problems caused by other mods. Also, you may want to try Settlement Menu Manager, as it adds menu protection for certain (not all) settlement mods. Try a variety of things though including uninstalling and reinstalling the mods in question, but pay attention to your vanilla menus as well and make sure they don't disappear on you in the process.

 

It's definitely a tricky b****, but I've had this problem a few times, and I've always managed to get it all back in the end.

 

I'm not sure about your business settlements problem. I've had similar problems where mods I have merged couldn't find the assets because they were tied up in ba2 archives. All I can say is that the game can't find the meshes of the signs you are trying to build, but without digging into the guts of your data folder, it'd be impossible to say why. You could try reinstalling that mod as well. In certain cases, it may be useful to redownload a mod to make sure you have all of the assets in their proper place, and reinstall that way.

 

Be patient with it, and keep trying, and next time be sure to follow the uninstall instructions, no?

 

Happy modding!

Ok thanks Iâll try some of those. I wouldnât need to do anything drastic like do a complete re-install of the game then?

Right I've fixed the menu and all the vanilla stuff is back and working. I've done away with Thematic and Practical and Do It Yourshelf for now, with all the other mods I have they are somewhat redundant at the moment. I'd like to get Business Settlements working though, I re-downloaded and re-installed, the vanilla signs are still all there but I still can't build the Business Settlement signs. Only about 5 of them can be built the rest are invisible.
