It's on the same page, under optional files. I always have it installed, but it is optional.

Where would I find the SS2 Extended version and how do I know if I need it?

The download that's 2.2GB on that Nexus page includes the file for Extended. It will just be named SS2Extended.esp within that zip file.
It's where things like the custom outfits for settlers, the new plots you unlock from completing the CPD questline, and a whole bunch of other "optional" stuff is located. I can see no reason not to run it unless you're that close to the game's hard limit of number of active mod files.

Increasingly, to make space for Xbox users so Chapter 3 can fit in, it's also where you find all the holiday decorations and all the alternate building skins that shipped with the main SS2 mod in the past. Also a lot of the pets and alternate skins for the doggos that you get through the Pet Store. So yeah, there continue to be more and more reasons to use SS2Extended. You are definitely getting a stripped down experience if you don't use it.

If you are downloading it via nexus and downloading the main file, it is included in the main file as a separate set of archives and .esp. You have to download the optional file to get the version without SS2Extended.

I don't understand there are 2 files for ss2 the main one when you first see the page and the other 1 is below that so which one is it? Also My tild key doesn't work in game I have tried it on UK keyboard settings and American keyboard settings I have it so I can switch between them is there some thing I can do to enable the tild key? Also when i quit the game i get a big black screen covering a quater of my screen and i cannot close it it is fallout 4 screen i have to do a restart on the pc. any ideas i just installed buffout 4 could that be the cause.

 

[Captain LaserBeam]

I can't assist you with that because under main files in the files tab I only see 1 option. There are many options under "Optional Files" but those are not main files. If your tild doesn't work it could be because you're playing survival and don't have mods that would enable the console? Survival disables console by default so you need a mod that re-enables it.

Yes, you want the first file.
If you look closely, you'll see there is a title line between the first and second file that says Optional.
All files below are ones you can use.
The first or main file contains the extended.

Can any one tell me where to find the Radio patch /Mod and what its called I looked and there are 4 or different ones I like listening to the story cannels.
Sorry to be a nuisance I have trouble finding things as I can only see through one eye due to a cataract I'm waiting for an operation to fix it.

Sorry it was my fault I didn't read the installation properly please disregard the above. Thanks for every ones help.

I think Vortex is great, there is a small learning curve. I had a little trouble with the Script Extender, but other than that downloads aren't bad. I did find that if I loaded a lot of new mods it seemed to help to close Vortex and reopen before starting my game. If I didn't I would sometimes have an issue with the game loading. Now that might just be me, but it works.
