Best mod for tracking collectibles?

[Elder Drake]

Just starting up a somewhat heavily modded new game and I wanted to add a mod to track collectibles like:

https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/14084

Issue is that mod requires a bit of work to not have it break precombined data and I am not really that advanced to be comfortable in endangering a save with something lilke this so my question to the community is does anyone know of a safe mod that is akin to this for mainly bobbleheads and perk magazines? I have of course searched but I wanted to see if some kind souls had ones that they would not mind sharing.

Thank you in advance for any and all replies and happy gaming.

I believe that mod works fine by itself. It's issue with precombines is caused by using Scrap Everything which causes problems with many mods.

After a bit of searching I can't turn up any alternatives either.

Personally, I just used the wiki for Bobbleheads and let magazines come naturally. There are many more than you need for the achievement.

Thanks for the reply and yeah it is disturbing to read about Scrap Everything as I was about to use that before I did my own due diligence and read about all the issues it was having. So now I am going over every mod I have (on a 120'ish mod load) to make sure nothing bad is being reported and my mod manager is reporting no conflicts.

I remember a mod like this back a long time ago and just made it a lot of fun to hunt them down with the aid of quest, a nice side distraction but I may just follow your example and use Fallout 4 maps or the like. Thanks again for the reply and take is easy.

Actually I think it has to do with the way the mod creator edited the .json file to edit the SPECIAL book and Grognak magazine.

Scrap Everything uses a special .json file for each settlement that creates a "library" or objects. That file is being overwritten. If this is the case it probably creates conflicts with Spring Cleaning, Clean My Settlement, Sim Settlements, etc.

That mod should have absolutely nothing to do with textures, as it should only be editing the objects.

As suggested in the forums on the Nexus page try moving the mod to load before Scrap Everything, that way Scrap Everything overwrites or edits the mod.
