A mod to build slightly better houses?

[Out Of Bubblegum]

I don't like the shacks you can build in vanilla. All the holes in the walls and roofs bug me. I use the barn pieces to make buildings and houses along with the windows from the factory. From the DLC. But then eveything looks like a barn. Yuck. I do not want to build perfect, pretty pre-war houses. I want something less like a shack and more like the post war houses in sanctuary.

Would this do? There is a version in optional files that does not require Master Plan.

Thanks. A log cabin is something that they should be able to build, lore wise. Not really what I am looking for but I will try it. I am not using Sim Settlements. Not sure if I want to try it. Maybe when I run out of new quests to do and settlement building is all thats left.

The Sim Settlement 'default' plans are very much a wasteland/mad max aesthetic; it's my primary objection to them.

That said, making your own city plans in conjunction with place everywhere/scrap everything and Transfer Settlements is a legit solution, and I've certainly had a lot of fun with my personal builds. Unless you're really into the homebuilding mechanics (I quickly found I loved settlements, but not the minutia of designing homes for 15+ settlers) I'd recommend using Sim Settlements and it's addons sooner rather than later.

Special mention to IDEKs logistics station which automates supply lines into an efficient system, adds a logistics locker across settlements, and supplements the supply line redistribution system for food and water with a more efficient system.

Just found this mod from another post:

If I stick to using the 'dirtier' pieces, I should be able to build something tha looks possible in the FO4 world.
