The Minuteman’s Castle
This is my save file of me doing my settlement building. Took roughly twenty hours to complete. I have done a little bit of the story before I started building my settlement. I did not do the finale missions for any of the main factions, in fact I haven’t even gotten the plans from Virgil. I did however come close to finishing the Minutemen of course so that I could get to the Castle. I have not done many of the other settlements either. I did a couple missions for the brotherhood of steel up to the point of where he asks to hear anything about how to get into a certain place. I did the railroad missions enough to receive the Deliever. I came face to face with the mystery with Nick Valentine. I do have several bobble-heads and several magazines both of which are shown in the pictures. I came about doing the settlement after watching a couple of videos on YouTube of people doing their settlements. In that regard I did use a few of their concepts in my work. The youtuber’s concepts that I used were the restaurant and the power armor setup. I will have a link at the end of the description . Everything else, that I did was out of my own creation. However if I did screw up somewhere and not quote you please let me know. It would be out of peer cryptomnesia if I did. I tried to make it as lore friendly and as realistic as I could without going over the top. I tried to go for a role playing experience and as such I chose the name “John Wick” after the movie of course. Now I know the circumstances are a little different but I made it fit in my mind. I went for a Sniper/Stealth build. I wasn’t a very high level when I started building but rose a lot because of it. John is level 32 and the perks that he has are in the pictures. I also brought many of the companions throughout the game to the base. They are as follows: Deacon, Paladin Danse, Dogmeat, Preston Garvey, Piper, and Cate. Tina De Luca, Trader Rylee, and Vault-Tec are there. My preference of choice for romance was Curie. If you haven’t played Vault 81 then I won’t spoil it. But to the Vault if you are wondering about what happened, the answer without giving to much, is no. I didn’t receive it.

You also need Fallout 4 Script Extender found here:
The script extender is used for Place Anywhere by TheLich I have never had an issue with Spring Cleaning and Place anywhere but I do not play without using F4SE. If you choose to not run with it, my work may appear different than what I have. I did NOT experience the reset bug while running both Spring Cleaning and Place Anywhere but as the previous statement said I always use F4SE.
**The way I used both settlements expanded and Homemaker Expanded settlements was by activating settlements expanded and using it to place certain objects and than going back to Homemaker Expanded. Both of these mods are absolutely great mods but you can only run one at a time so it is up to you and which one you prefer.
