Tower town mayhem, Pizzas with rat topping, and a Messy gun shop. Wasteland Venturers, bigger and bolder than ever before!

New plots so far:
  • Concrete Farm by Myrmarachne
  • Townhouse Metal by Tinuvia
  • Townhouse Stone by Tinuvia
  • Voodoo Lodge by Myrmarachne
  • Pizza Parlour by Myrmarachne
  • Magic Mushroom Garden by Tinuvia
  • Messy Death Gun Shop by Myrmarachne
  • The Wrath of Kinggath by Myrmarachne
We're mostly doing this to keep the mod size down for xboxers, and to offer a separate non-DLC content.

NEXUS
XBOX
PC Beth.net

For PC-users nearing the esp limit, we have added an All-In-One on the new mod page.

Updating from the old Wastland Venturers to the All-In-One?
If you want to use the All-In-One version just uninstall and delete the old mod (WV1) and install the new All-In-One version. All the plots you have built will stay. If you don't mind adding another esp to your load order, you can keep the two mods (WV1 and WV2) as separate mods.

EDIT: If you want to control what version the Townhouses upgrade to, remember to set Manage Upgrades to "Prevent auto-upgrades" (can be done just for the plot with the ASAM sensor). There are three styles, four colors and two types (single and multibed) for each house.

This looks awesome.

Regarding future updates, what would be better? The all-in-one, or having the mods separate?
 
Thank you! :heart
We'll keep them all updated so either works. If you don't mind an extra esp, there will be less to download if you keep them separate since we will add the new things in WV2 and mostly update WV1 with bugfixes and new SimS functionality.
 
Omg. I bolted out of the game to download and it isn’t there on xbox.

Tease.

I did look at the images on nexus though and these look fantastic. I have to say, the mod was already wonderful and these look like great additions. I have a couple of settlements with the pond farm, just as one example, and they are so cool. In fact, all the agricultures are special favorites, especially at night. Wonderful mood. Kudos on even more.
 
Hehehe - Now it's up! And please, as always, let us know how it works on xbox. Thanks!

So, it says 24 different upgrades, does that mean if you set it so that you upgrade and can choose you have several options at each stage? If so... just wow.
 
Yes, I should be more clear ;)
Townhouse Stone:
Level 2: choose between 3 styles (Victorian, ArtDeco, Rusty) and four colors for 12 variations
Level 3: choose between 2 types for each of the 12 from Level 2 (single bed or 3 beds), here you can also change color but not style.

Townhouse Metal:
Level 1: Has chem- and cookingstations, and a crowded player/settler mattress
Level 2: Choose between four colors, and player home (with double bed for you and your companion/settler) with crafting stations or 3-bed home
Level 3: Choose between three styles (Quartermaster, Plumber, Engineer) and you can change colors. 3-bed homes upgrade to 5-bed homes. Edit: Player home Engineer gets all five regular crafting stations (not connected to the main workbench, unfortunately).

I thought it could be fun as a player to interact a bit more in the houses upgrades - and on top they would look more different at level 3 if you placed several near each other.

I have seen settlers sleep in all beds, but usually they are very reluctant to use the top stairs. They prefer teleportation means (or as lately in my games, hanging out in the bar all night ...)
 
Get out.

That’s awesome and I love the idea that you can drop a few of them next to each and create a little neighborhood that looks like it goes together but there is variation instead of the same thing. That’s really above and beyond. Can’t wait to let you know how the work out on xbox.
 
At first I was going to curse you, because I am running at the max plugin limit and you drop this gem, then after I saw you had an AIO version I was going to praise you, but I settled for cursing.

Damn you guys! :spiteful

Seriously how am I supposed to get through a play through when all these new plots keep getting added. You guys make one of the best overall addon packs and I want those townhouses in Sanctuary. But wait I already have 41 settlers in Sanctuary and smoke rises from my computer every time I enter the cell, and I am running 32Gigs of Ram and a 1080. Guess its time for "The Mayor" to start evicting people, but at least they are getting upgrades.

Great Mod!
 
I'm afraid not - bethnet only allows one file per mod so it would get too complicated to maintain.
 
Ahh well. I've been using the Beth.net version because it's faster & easier to update. Guess I'll switch back to the Nexus version.

I want to try these new plots anyway.
 
Sorry! I can see why you'd go with Bethnet as NMM also can be a bit obnoxious.
 
No worries, not a deal-breaker.

Except in the case of the SimSettlements base mods. For some reason, I have to download Industrial Revolution TWICE in NMM before it shows up on the mod list.
 
Damn. I simply don't have the additional mod space left. (Down to 38MB, and I'm sure 20 of that is being held hostage by Bethesda for one reason or another.) Thanks for the addition, though!
 
Sounds great, love the original pack, but I didn't notice until it finished downloading that this one needs all the dlcs
 
Only tried out the metal townhouse so far, but worth d/l for that alone. Lovely!
I think between stuff like that, Eldarth's Parkhouse and a few others it might be possible to build a settlement that looks suitably post-apocalyptic but also quite pleasant :grin
