Aloot’s Home Plate
A re-release of Aloot’s amazing Home Plate overhaul! This is an overhaul of the Player Home in Diamond City, aka Home Plate. The interior has been reworked, and the home now behaves just like any other settlement. You can send Companions and NPCs there and add Home Plate to the supply chain and much much more!
Re-release Note
This is a re-release of Aloot’s awesome Home Plate player home mod. It was taken down from Nexus due to Aloot’s profile being deleted, but since he gave express permission for it to become a community resource I am re-uploading it to make it available again to the community! See below for Aloot’s original post.
Description
This is an overhaul of the Player Home in Diamond City, aka Home Plate. The interior has been reworked, and the home now behaves just like any other settlement. You can send Companions and NPCs there and add Home Plate to the supply chain. The home is now full of custom paintings, pictures, posters and much more, but almost everything can be scrapped directly via Workshop Mode or indirectly via the Workshop Stacking system, which basically means if an object is sitting on something that gets deleted, then it too gets deleted. There is also a short backstory on the terminals in the form of a journal that the previous owners left. Feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Notes, Warnings and Bugs
Any mod that alters, modifies, or makes changes to Diamond City Market might override the Map Marker data for Home Plate and break the settlement features. This means when you try to send Companions or NPCs there, they will just stand still like morons.
The cage lights on the ceiling above the power armor stations are indeed scrappable but do not have the proper collisions to make it easy to highlight them in workshop mode. Their collisions need to modified.
The Television in the basement does not work unless you mess with it in Build Mode. I.E. Select it and deselect it, or move it. I don’t know why this is. I’ve looked at other Televisions in other settlements, but I cannot figure out what makes them able to be activated by default.

Akarnan’s Build Your Own Pool assets and collaboration for the working shower.
Caraland77’s Military Bed Blanket retexture for the custom bunk beds.
Most of the base images for the paintings and posters were pulled from google. I assume that means they are in the public domain. Please message me if I am mistaken or need to credit someone.
The picture of the girl above the diner booth is Aloot’s sister. She passed away in 2016, and Aloot put her picture in the mod as a nice gesture.
