[BUG] Watchtower breaks Unearthed Main Quest (NASA Launch Tower)

[sirboulevard]

I started a new playthrough to enjoy Watchtower and when I reached Unearthed in the Vanilla Main Story, the NASA Launch Tower would not spawn. After rigorously testing my mods, it turned out Watchtower (for some reason) prevents the NASA Launch Tower from Spawning in.

Any of you having this issue, if you have a small load order (say less than 30 mods), we'd love to see a save file as we can't replicate this at all.

If you have a larger load order, than just posting your mod list will help. We can start comparing load orders to find the common mods and investigate how things are conflicting.

I tried sending you a message with my save file but it wouldn't let me.

Can you upload it to a google drive or other free file sharing site, make it public and DM me the link?

Hi all, we've received a save file we're able to reliably reproduce from, and indeed changing the overridden and master worldspace records does seem to be a workaround. Unsure as to why that is exactly, seems to be an engine bug of some kind. But in any case I can say we'll have a fix for this from our end in patch 2.

And... looks like I have the issue again. I really don't know much about how Planet records work, but after trying to restart a few times, I threw my patch back in my LO and they were back again. I'm running on little sleep so probably not the most helpful at the moment, but @sirboulevard if you want to try my patch I've attached it here.

THIS fixed everything. Soo I had the same problem without watchtower, where i was unable to see any earth landmarks.
And this fixed it even though watchtower isnt installed, but it was at some point.

Thank you

This available on XBox?

Adding my name as one having this issue as well (no poi's on earth)... Glad to see this is a known bug and is being worked on ... That said I have very small creation list... Load order attached.

Hi @Aurelianis : I'm unfamiliar with esm files that's in your zip. I did try googling about them where potentially, all i need to do is put it in my SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Starfield\Data folder. Is this correct? Any help would be appreciated. Also, do you know if using this will break achievements?

FYI all the update with this fix is submitted, hopeful will be approved by Bethesda QA soon. My guess is next week at latest.

Also wanted to say, this one won't happen to everyone which is why it slipped through our radar the first time. Its a super inconsistent issue and was caused by a CK bug that we've reported to Bethesda so that hopefully other mods won't cause it in the future either!
