Mods that work well with Sim Settlments 2

[Chunk Norris ☯]

Just got a new computer and I'm re-installing Fallout. I know I want to get Sim Settlements 2 but heard the mod conflicts with others. I'm looking for mods that are compatible with that mod, that you'd recommend. Thanks

I tried 2 a few weeks ago.

They're still working some bugs out, plus I probably had a mod conflict.

For instance, after selecting a leader for a settlement, the fly into the sky bit happened, but nothing got built.

I made various attempts to make it work, but to no avail, so I uninstalled, and re-installed 1, which is working perfectly.

They're updating every 2 weeks or something awesome, so you may have greater success.

I did have greater success with the old computer. Their first release gave me some problems, but they seem to work them out fairly fast. I tried the auto-build option on a few settlements and had success although for the most part I just used the ASAM's where I wanted to place them.

There has been almost a dozen updates to fix various bugs and mod conflicts.

The current version is 1.01B

Chapter 2 should be out before end of the year, I think.

The quest line story and the side quests for the Unique Settlers are amazing and worth playing.

Guys have confirmed that We Are The MInutemen seems to work correctly with SS2. It is worth installing, just for your sanity.

Unless you like having 3 timed MM missions at once. I don't. I really, really don't and I can't figure out why BGS didn't give them cooldowns in the first place.

I had a 10/10 bu with Preston as a companion. A bug allowed all NPCs to be assigned jobs, Preston got himself assigned to a chem shop. When I hit idolized Preston kept trying to start the conversation and instead it would turn into "What you got for chems?"

Another settlement needs my Jet, let me mark it on the map, lol.

I've heard people talk about Chapter 2. At what point in the storyline is that?\

The SS2 story is completely separate form the main story.

There is some special plots and special settlers you unlock from doing the main story though.
