I followed the instructions Yagisan said but when I ran Wabbajack FO4 is under maintenance (Pic added) Is there a way for Wabbajack to use my game? Also How do I link it to Vortex with my mod list?

You have to wait for the mod list to be updated and this could be hours or months to do so. There are other Fallout lists on Wabbajack that you may still like.
You don't link it to Vortex. Wabbajack lists use MO2 and the downloads include everything you need to run in the download folders.

I can not provide help for any Fallout 4 modlists except for the SS2CPC Helper.

And will it also include Sim Settlements 2?

There are multiple lists with different themes. You need to read thru to confirm that SS2 is part of the list. I see two packages currently that include SS2 - Sim Settlements 2 City Plan contest helper and Magnum Opus.

Here my experience with nextgen and ss2
- Xbox series x: mod list with just hudfw, wsfw, ss2 chapters, tiny living. Impossible to play, ctd everytime i try to approach a settlement with more than 10 plots, or a settlement under attack. Ctd when fast travel to downtown Boston. Ctd if i try to grab multi object in ws mode. Ctd when i open the ws menu. Ctd when i use the town meeting hammer. Before the update i was able to complete ss2 storyline with some performance problems, but i was able to play still the end. Now it's just impossible to play for 2 hours straight. Probably next gen plus ss2 is simply too much to handle into the xbox system.

- Pc: i experienced very long loading time during fast travel or enter/exit interior cells, (something like 3 or 4 minutes of loading screen), a very slow opening of ws menu (about 5 sec) and extra long saving (2 or 3 minutes of freeze screen).
After installing some f4se plugins, created for those specific problems, the game is super fast and super stable. I continue to experience some ctd when fast travel, but nothing i havent experienced in the vanilla game too (i mean, we are talking about Fallout anyway, if you understand what i mean).

So my experience with pc is super positive, also with a 50 mods load order. Good job guys!!

Playing on Steam Deck and the mod simply isn’t working regardless of my install method. The Sim Settlements option is missing from the settlement menu and when I set up a recruitment beacon, Jake simply did now show up. The only evidence that the mod is even installed is the holotape and its presence in the MCM.

Did you find the Robco Mag on the workbench in Sanctuary?
You shouldn't have the holotape until later in the game. Make sure all mods are SS2 and not SS. May want to post your load order and plugins so folks here can see if anything stands out as an issue.

Xbox series X: genuinely a shame what the next-gen update did to this mod. Was working mostly fine before the next gen update, started a new playthrough with just SS2 (all chapters) and WF and the game crashes constantly.

City plans are basically a no-go as they're an instant CTD now. Attacks on settlements are mostly an instant CTD depending on whether you can intercept the attackers before they get to the settlement. In my opinion the mod spawns too many attackers and the series X struggles with this. Even intercepting causes my game to stutter whilst they all load in.

Was really hoping to finish at least one SS2 playthrough but in its current state it's simply impossible. May come back to this one should I get a PC at any point
