SS Icon not showing up in workshop mod on the main menu. The Plots show up under "special" but that's it, I've tried running SMM menu rescue.

This is a new game
I am using Sim Settlements 3 in 1

Thanks in Advance

Did you get the holotape?
 
I uploaded this video to show what I am talking about in hopes it helps understand the problem

Do you have the most up to date versions of everything? Things do go wrong if the game and SS versions are out of date. If your game has updated it self, you may not be aware of it, and then you need to update SS. (I know this sounds like I'm trying to teach you to suck eggs, but I am not, so many people have been caught out by the game update).
 
from watching that video, that looks like a completely messed up game.
if smm can't help you then you have no choice but to literally remove everything and start over.
when you start over you need to purge all your mods via vortex - dont worry this is harmless - then delete your data folder - then get steam to validate your files.
once thats done - start a new game but only start it with simsettlements, conqueror if you use it the dlc for fo4, ufo4p if you use it, , mcm, wf & ws+
the idea here is to make sure that when you leave the vault, your game menu looks like it should - then slowly - one mod at a time introduce your mods - it will take some time - but go slowly and make hard saves regularly.
 
fyi, this isn't unique to xxlzhexx. I too have a new game with up to date f4se, SS with canary, settlement menu mgr, mcm, etc. I don't have the plots in the special builds like he does but I don't have the SS Icon anywhere. SS is running, I got notifications that blue prints were available and the status markers do appear on the side. I'll do the start over as suggested.

BTW. I use MO2 but will switch to Vortex for retry

what you are describing isn't the same as the poster above.
you'd be best off opening a new thread with your issues - but - i will ask here, have you got the holotape from the museum and loaded it up in your pipboy?

What he is saying is exactly the same problem I had.

Oddly enough I did the reinstall like you suggested (I use NMM) and then reinstalled all my mods with the exception of Canary and got it working again.
 
no, it really isn't. your video clearly showed that your game was broken beyond repair, due to the state of the workshop menu. this is something else, perhaps a bit more common. if you start the game, the simsettlements menu is not present in your workshop menu until you get the holotape and activate it. or - it could be something else - but its really not the same issue as your video showed.
trust me. i've had both issues and a myriad of others previously! got to love the stupid, easily broken workshop menu.

Well from what he Chuck was saying it sounded like the samething going on with the exception of I had plots and he didn't.

But yeah workshop is funky, WS+ has never worked for me but that could be because I use workshop rearranged, as well as other workshop mods, and recently the importing of blueprints don't work also. Buy I'm okay qith this stuff not working because it's not a big thing to me, I would like WS+ because of the undo feature but that's not, no need to take up a loadslot for one feature, and there's not a lot of blueprints out there right now so again not really needed.
