Developer RedRocketTV
Latest version 1.3
Release date 2019-09-05

This mod converts the abandoned diner adjacent to the Slog settlement into a furnished and functional interior cell player home with lots of interactive features. After you gain access to the settlement, the door unlocks granting you access to the interior cell player home.

Description[edit | edit source]

PLEASE NOTE: This mod adds a pre-decorated interior cell player home to the diner adjacent to the Slog settlement:

  • There is NO workshop mode in the interior cell!
  • You can not assign settlers to the interior cell!
  • You can not dismiss companions to the interior cell!

Most items are static, but there are a several lootable items and containers.

Requirements:

  • This mod requires the following Fallout 4 DLC:
  • Far Harbor (DLCCoast.esm)
  • Nuka World (DLCNukaWorld.esm)
  • Contraptions Workshop (DLCworkshop02.esm)

There will not be a non-DLC version, so please don’t ask.

This mod converts the abandoned diner adjacent to the Slog settlement into a furnished and functional interior cell player home. After you gain access to the settlement, the door unlocks granting you access to the interior cell. Until you control the settlement and activate the workshop, the door to the interior cell will remain locked and inaccessible.

The Slog Diner is decorated with pretty much everything you’d expect to see in a vintage American diner. I’ve created lots of custom design signage with 2K textures to capture that vintage diner feel. I’ve even included guest checks on the counter and dinnerware with the diner’s logo.

Features[edit | edit source]

  • The diner has it’s own discoverable map marker for easy fast travel
  • Custom loading screen
  • Custom magazine that unlocks a special cooking recipe (see the “NEW FEATURE” section below)

  • Power armor station and cooking grill outside of the diner
  • All workbenches are linked to settlement workshop

  • Functioning exterior light switch (can only be activated after you have access to the diner)
  • Interior and exterior lights can also be controlled from Terminal
  • Skylight with functioning sliding door
  • Sky is visible through the skylight with a full day/night lighting cycle and complete weather effects. For example, if there is a rain or radstorm outside, you will see the lighting and hear the thunder, etc. but will not be effected by radiation
  • Custom Nuka Cola display shelf

NEW FEATURE for the Better Homes and Bunkers series: Starting with Vol. 3: the Slog Diner, each player home will come with a custom collectible magazine. The magazines, which feature custom 2K artwork, will be found in the interior cells of the player homes.

When added to your inventory, the magazine will grant you a housewarming gift in the form of something unique to the mod, such as a custom crafting recipe or something simple yet practical, such as a component shipment that you can use for crafting.

The Slog Diner magazine unlocks a new food recipe: the Blue Plate Special!

When unlocked, you can craft the Blue Plate Special at any cooking station if you have these ingredients:

  • 1 Mirelurk Egg
  • 1 Cram
  • 1 Tarberry
  • 1 Purified Water

When consumed, the Blue Plate Special grants a small healing bonus as well as +1 Endurance, +1 Perception and +1 Strength for two game hours.

VERY IMPORTANT INFO THAT I’M SURE SOME PEOPLE WON’T READ: Once you have control of the settlement, you MUST ACTIVATE THE LOAD DOOR TWICE to unlock it. The first time triggers the door lock script and it runs an ownership check on the workshop. If you own the settlement, the script removes the lock. Activating the door the second time opens the door and loads you into the interior cell.

Also note that the exterior light switch is coupled to the door unlock script, so you must first activate the unlocked load door in order to use the exterior light switch.

Using this mod in an existing Slog settlement build: Ideally, the mods in this series should be used in a new game but there are no real issues using them in a game with a settlement already built at the location, provided you keep a few important things in mind:

  • 1. Before installing this mod,leave the Slog settlement. Fast travel someplace else, whatever, just leave the Slog. I suggest fast traveling to Greentop Nursery. It’s close enough to the Slog to get back easily, but far enough away to not interfere with activating the mod. Once you are out of the settlement, save your game and quit.
  • 4. Install and activate the mod.
  • 5. Load the save you just made and WALK, not Fast Travel...into the Slog settlement. This will (hopefully) insure the new diner exterior is properly loaded into your game.
  • 6. Activate the load door TWICE, as described above.
  • 7. Enter, and enjoy your new digs!

NOTES ON INTERACTIVE FEATURES: There is some very important information in the READ ME regarding the interactive features of the mod. I strongly suggest you read it THOROUGHLY before asking questions or reporting issues.

Questions regarding items clearly spelled out the in the READ ME or mod description will likely not be responded to.

About the Better Homes and Bunkers Player Home Mod Series:

The Slog Diner Player Home is the third in a series of player home mods that add interior cell player homes to Fallout 4 settlement locations.

The Better Homes and Bunkers Player Home mod series aims to fill a void in the Fallout 4 settlement system by offering old school, pre-decorated, move-in ready player homes to existing settlement locations. All of the homes in this series will be inspired by the player homes of previous Fallout games.

Installation[edit | edit source]

Use the mod manager of your choice,

Or to install manually:

  • Extract the archive. It contains three files:
    • RRTV_HomesAndBunkers_Slog.esp
    • RRTV_HomesAndBunkers_Slog – Main.BA2
    • RRTV_HomesAndBunkers_Slog – Textures.BA2
  • Place all three files into your Data folder.

For you FO4Edit aficionados: The mod has been cleaned in FO4Edit. But if you compelled to do it yourself anyway, be aware that the precombined mesh and previs data for the diner exterior cell (TheSlogExt03) has been regenerated. Any cell edits for surrounding cells you see are NOT stray edits...they are a result of regenerating the precombined/previs data. Unless you want to risk experiencing performance and/or graphical issues, I suggest you leave them be.

Using with other Slog settlement mods: Since the diner is located completely outside of the settlement build zone, the potential for mod conflicts should be minimal. Your mileage may vary.

As with anytime you use multiple mods that modify the same cell, there is ALWAYS a potential for conflicts. Even though the diner is not part of the settlement build zone, there is always the chance you will run into problems using other mods that modify the Slog area.

I don’t use any Slog settlement mods so I haven’t tested any. You’re on your own for that. I also have no intention of making compatibility patches...you’re on your own for that as well. Sorry, but I can’t get into supporting mods that I don’t use for my own game.
