Fixed City Manager Holotape doesn't detect pip-boy when played in pip-boy

When I play the holotape in my pip-boy, I get the start up screen and then I select OK for it to go to the next screen. It then tells me that it isn't detecting a pip-boy and won't let me go any further. I don't have any pip-boy modifications installed, and MO2 doesn't mention any script overwrites.

I am on PC with all DLC installed, running Sim Settlements Three-in-One 4.0.0a, Sim Settlements Conqueror 4.0.0a, and Workshop Framework 1.1.0

Here is my full mod list:

Maybe also useful information:
  • All of the Sim Settlements options appear in the MCM menu.
  • The Sim Settlements Conqueror questline is functioning as intended.
  • Holotape and ASAM sensors looted from Concord.
  • Started the game with Sim Settlements loaded but added Conqueror onto an already existed save.
  • Holotape functioned normally in past, but it's been a few months since I've played.
  • Unable to assign Raider Recruits to defense (not sure if I am supposed to be able to).
  • No overwrites or conflicts noted by Mo2.
  • Nearly all mods loaded are related to settlement building, but I have used nearly all of them together with Sim Settlements in the past without issue.
 
I have the same Problem. I started a new playthrough with SimSettlements (3 in 1) and conquerer ond PC in VR. Conquerer seems to be working. Abernathy Farm is build up. I tried the linked solution but that didn't work. Asam Sensors, Tape and the new raider guy are all where they are supposed to be.

And since its VR i tried all three pip boy variants + using it in Power Armor. Also switched to pancake version, still the same message.

Terenor, can you look through my mod list in the first post and see if we are using any of the same mods? If the problem is a mod conflict, we might be able to narrow it down.

I have to use older versions of some mods because VR stuff. I can't run F4SE and with that any HUD changes

Iinterestingly i now have for the first time the mole rat ambush bug. Never had that one before
 
Short update on the issue:

I started new playthroughs and deactivated many of the mods we both use (in the end most building mods). Also deactivated many pip boy mods (even retextures). All that didn`t help.

Now i started a new game without workshop framework, and since that one is a master to conqueror i also deactivated that one. I playerd till the point when you get your pip boy, then used console commands to get the city manager holotape. Now it worked. Exited the game, activated the framework and conquerer and those seem to be working. i still have access to the city manager holotape, but not entirely sure if it shows all of the same options as before.

Hope this helps
 
Update: Works using the above method (thanks Terenor!); Start new game w/o Workshop Framework and Conqueror, acquire the City Manager holotape and follow the instructions. Enable Workshop Framework and Conqueror, everything functions as normal.

More Info: Issue still persists for me with all current updates as of March 4, except instead of the "pip-boy not detected" page, it is an endless loop of the start-up screen in city manager. The options "OK" and "Pack-up desk" are available (although this is through the pip-boy and I have no desk). I want to mention that I first tried a new game only having Conqueror disabled while Workshop Framework was still enabled, but the issue remained. Only by starting a new game with BOTH Conqueror and Workshop Framework disabled was I able to get the holotape working correctly. The issue may involve Workshop Framework somehow. I did have Workshop Framework loaded before Sim Settlements, so it is possible that Workshop Framework just needs to be placed after Sim Settlements in the load order (did not test). I hope this info is helpful for the SS devs and for anybody else who may be having this issue.

Compatibility: Sim Settlements: Conqueror works fine with SKK FastStart, which skips the pre-war and vault 111 sequences. However, Conqueror needs to do some setup in settlements (depending on your chosen settings), so it is a good idea to avoid the settlements it is working on until it completes everything. I crashed a few times while approaching settlements it was still working on.
