BA2 has been uploaded together with the component format, and you can choose to install it according to your needs.

Updated on February 9, 2025:

Version 1.5.1

Fixed "Plug-in not installed" error when installing only Eden

The WorkshopFramework progress bar can now be disabled in the fixed disassembler's settings and MCM.

Version 1.5.0

Added support for the Eden Papyrus writing expander

Portable Disassembler now displays a progress bar if WSFW and HudFramework are installed

Portable disassemblers don't prevent you from moving while in use, as I have had an issue with. Please stay in the same cell while it's functioning, I can't guarantee what will happen once you leave.

Updated on August 12, 24:

Version 1.4.4

Blacklisted Saturnite Forge recipes are not discovered when searching for scrap recipes

Version 1.4.3

Makes the mod do true rounding instead of rounding down. Now it seems like it produces a bit more scrap than manual scrapping, but that's what it is

Improved handling of recipes that spawn multiple items

Possible improvements to scrapping of non-junk miscellaneous items

Version 1.4.2

Removed unnecessary files that were accidentally added

Version 1.4.1

Scraping should no longer produce unnamed items that are not visible in the inventory.

Version 1.4 updated on October 8th:

Lighthouse Papyrus Extender is now also supported instead of SUP F4SE. Lighthouse enables more accurate retrieval of scrapped recipes.

Scraping armor functions the same as scrapping weapons. Scrapping should reduce the frequency of returning stripped base armor.

---

The Universal Disassembler is an improved version of my Scrapping Machine. However, in addition to junk items, this device can also scrap weapons, armor, and more!

Thanks to the SUP F4SE and Lighthouse Papyrus Extender, this works without any compatibility patches. Anything that is scrappable in Workshop mode, or buildable in any way, should also be scrapped by the universal dismantler. This includes stimulus packs, grenades, craftable setup holotapes from other mods, and even its own portable version! Oh, by the way, there's also a portable version. It lacks some of the advanced features of a shop-assembled machine, but it can still be used for mass scrapping on the go!

Require

This mod requires F4SE version 0.6.23 or higher, and SUP F4SE version 9.45 or higher, or Lighthouse Papyrus Extender version 1.7.0 or higher. If both are installed, Lighthouse will be preferred unless you change it in the options.

See the Limitations section below for relevant differences between SUP F4SE and Lighthouse with respect to this mod.

Usage

Stronghold Build: Build the Universal Disassembler from Resources -> Miscellaneous in Build Mode.

Use the front lid to manually load items. Alternatively, you can use the number pad on the right to store any junk you're carrying, or to transfer items from the workshop to the machine.

Press the red button on the left to start. The top nixie tube should light up and show the progress of the scrapping process. The machine should lock itself when scrapping.

Once the process is complete, the machine should unlock and allow you to receive scrap. Alternatively, you can use the numeric keypad again to transfer content into Workshop.

The numeric keypad also allows you to access the Settings Menu. These settings affect both stationary and portable disassemblers.

The following are possible options:

Scrap Unscrappable Objects: Determines when items marked with the keyword "UnscrappableObject" can be scrapped. For example, in the original game, legendary items were. Default value: OFF.

Lossy Scrapping: Determines when the "Scrapper" characteristic (tec …

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
