Installation:
- Install with a mod manager.
- I recommend saving after each of the following steps. The game is prone to crashing after a large building import. The first save directly after importing can take a long time even on a very fast PC.
- Fast-travel to the Ranger Cabin (west of Abernathy Farm) and then paste this line into the console to go to the right location:
player.setpos x -90828; player.setpos y 70271; player.setpos z 7800; player.setangle z 55
- Build a settlement (with Conquest or another mod) at this location. The Transfer Settlements blueprint is designed for the Garwood Outpost of Conquest. See below for using a different settlement. The Clipboard pattern should work with any settlement without modification.
- When using Clipboard Resurrection (preferred because it's much faster and doesn't require a specific settlement): Build the clipboard tool, choose "Move To Pattern Source Location" in the action menu first, then "Paste From Clipboard". Ignore the warning about the missing settlement.
- Alternatively, when using Transfer Settlements: Use the holotape to import the blueprint. Make sure "Import or nuke marker-based items" is selected. Note that I only test with the "Stable" preset. Use anything else at your own risk. If you get a "wrong worldspace" error, follow the instructions below for using a different settlement.
- Some wireless lights may attach to a switch instead of the main power when powering up. If you notice any light going out when you close a window shutter, pick the light up in workshop mode and release it again. This should connect it to the right power source.
Using a different settlement with Transfer Settlements / in case of "wrong worldspace" errors:
- After creating the new settlement at the right location, build some object in it (because exports can't be empty), export it with Transfer Settlements and exit Fallout 4.
- Open the bp.json file from this mod in a text editor and look for the "workshop" section at the very end.
- Replace it with the "workshop" section from your exported settlement. Now you should be able to import the modified blueprint.
