How to mod LitR - SS2

As of LitR 6.0, SS2 is no longer included in the list. There's a public patreon post for context on the decision if you're curious why. Adding it back to LitR is somthing that is definitely possible, however the standard warnings about modifying wabbajack lists apply. SS2 is a massive mod, that will have far reaching implications on your game. You need to know what you're doing with a change of this scale, unless you're interested in a challenge I would recommend just grabbing the 5.4.3 compile from my previous post and playing the settle profile as is, or choosing a wabbajack list built around the SS2 experience.

As of 5.4.3, the follow mods were in the [Settle] profile. Obviously, pretty much everything except SS2 itself and the Lunar Patch is more or less optional.

• Sim Settlements 2 - All Chapters Pack

• SS2 Extended Outfit Injection ESL

• SS2 DLC Settlers Patch

• SS2 Better Outfits

• Sim Settlements 2 - HUD Override

• Sim Settlements 2 Child Support

SS2 Addon Packs - I chose these specifically because they don't have feature bloat like extra food to balance against Feast and Famine, are relatively lore friendly, and don't have issues.

• Sim Settlements 2 Scrappers

• Sim Settlements 2 - Ruined Homes and Gardens 2.0

• Sim Settlements 2 - Tiny Living

As of v7.0, the list uses PRP v74, make sure the PRP patches you pick are that version

The following patchers should probably be rerun

• M8R Complex Item Sorter Output (Disable Quest tagging, it's incompatible with SS2)

SS2 City plans are generally compatible with the list, with one very large caveat- every plan you add (whether you are using it or not) will negatively impact performance. Whenever you add them to the game, they are loaded (permanently, I think) into script memory. This is why no plans were included with the list by default.

For this reason, I recommend picking whatever individual city plans you want to use in game, and NOT using one of the large packs, adding a ton of plans to the game that you're not going to use eats up resources that are better spent elsewhere in a list this large.

Updating the scripted patches when SS2 updates is generally not required, but I suggest checking the changelogs.

Mods that don't play nicely with SS2

• SKK Undeath - This is a soft conflict, due to the script load. Anytime your game has script lag you'll get a long bleed out while the game catches up before you respawn. That's why the mod wasn't active on the settle profile. If you're able to run the list at a stable, high FPS, you may be able to use the mod, but if you experience problems you can always disable it in the MCM.

• Diamond City Vendor Clutter -> makes changes that render a quest required area inaccessible

EDIT : v7.0.0 Removed references to needing to rerun the degrade and salvage, and barter patches, as well as true perks conflicting with the SS2 city mega pack (I still don't recommend using it).
