- Fallout 4 Let's Build: Vault 88 - Part 1
The first installment of my Vault 88 mega build project. Apologies in advance for all the fumbling I do in this episode, I'm still figuring things out with the vault tab.

It is so admirable you took the time and effort to make this walkthrough for fellow players to follow. Series like these are exceptionally difficult to come by as they take time and commitment. I want you to know that, on behalf of everyone watching this guide that chooses to take this advice, it is greatly appreciated. Thank you. :)
I am also following this video, I appreciate it but I believe I have never heard such a boring TH-camr in the past. I follow the rest of the videos and seriously 10 minute work takes 45 minutes. Not hating just stating that it could be much better.
@@JohnBotoKun in my opinion, her calmness is nice and soothing. a lot of youtubers are too enthusiastic and loud, but she's pretty charismatic in that way.
@Sp33d BoyGT oh fuck
@Sp33d BoyGT people aren't allowed to appreciate youtubers if they're female?
On behalf of everyone??? Speak for yourself simp boy brett
Just copy this and vault 81 design and BAM perfect vault
Bubble Cheif19 good idea
Sphynx__ You mean your copied vault?
@@cxvqa still his vault
Lil Block still his copied vault
What do you mean “Copy this (and vault 81 design)”? what is the vault 81 design, and why would i copy 2 vaults?
4 years later and this is still the only good guide I found. I’m surprised so many people can make sense of all the parts. Got to hate how while Bethesda makes great reactive games, they’re also dumb enough to not allow scrapping everything once you get a new settlement. Like the Murkwater one.
Thanks a ton for being the one to explain things so well. It’s annoying to see other people with titles like “How to set up vault lights.” But they have mods installed, which is pretty moot for PS4 players. I have Fallout 76 arriving tomorrow, so gonna watch your videos on that when I’m able to start it.
4 years later and this is the best guide I found.
is it bad that im watching this to copy it because i suck at building xD
lol same here. Barely good at putting a settlement together, now I have make a vault? WTF?
I always put stuff at random places that I see empty, thinking that "I can change it's position if I need to", but in the end everywhere gets overcrowded and whole settlement becomes a huge mess.
Rycyoung no bro it's natural that's what TH-cam for
is it bad that im irritated she put 8 top pieces instead of the seven so the stairs now dont line up XD
Same here
I was so overwhelmed when I first started this DLC months ago. I knew I wanted to build a vault but didn't know where to begin lol. Decided to buckle down and do it over the holiday. This vid helped a lot thanks.
ditto, i was so daunted i have been cruising youtube looking for help. first vid i found that wasnt the place already done built.
Don't feel bad I did exactly what you did...
Lucky Underwood I did all this wrong haha. Man vaults are tricky compared to normal settlements. Gotta give vault tec props as a bunch of crooked bastards they are they got alot of patients and detail in their other vaults.
I was/still am in the same boat as you were. This vid also helped me a ton!
Lazy Daze same a year later people are still confused
Who else is watching this after the update
Yep! I can build settlements but suck at vaults
Me 💯
Currently trying to make Vault 88 my main place because I'm so tired of the castle 😪
Just got into fallout was sitting in my library never played it since 2 weeks ago
😂 Me
Thank you very much for this video! 🤩
I know this video was published 5 years ago, but it helped me A LOT today, I just didn't know how to start my vault and seeing you build yours not only taught me the basics, but gave me lots of ideas, too.
You're awesome! Thanks so much!!
I’m a late comer to FO games and I appreciate you making this vid. Great communication, no crazy music distractions. Thanks for your time and effort I am happy to be a new subscriber!
Same
Same I just got wifi and bought the vault Tec dlc was only 1.99 being as I like to just chill in the vaults anyways this was perfect for me as was the this vault design I destroyed my old one and used hers 😂 tysm
I will not copy... YES, I WILL
hey if they didnt want me to copy them they shouldnt show me how it is done :) i leave innovation to the innovators. just call me Captain Xerox.
same
I’m a bit late to the party
Pro-tip: shoot the overseer in the face to unlock all plans without having to do her stupid quests.

Great stuff. I like the way you talk your way through your thought process. That really helps me to follow and understand what you are doing. ( I also appreciate that you have no need to drop F-bombs all over the landscape. It really detracts from some videos.) Thanks for your efforts. Quality stuff. And helpful.
I completely agree!
Dayum, fallout 4's been out since 2015/16? How time bloody flies.
I can’t believe it’s been 7 years since this dlc came out I was so excited to try it out and your guide made me even more thrilled I just want to thank you for all the good memories you gave me
Usually I get frustrated with videos like this and start yelling at my phone for the person to do something differently lol but this is the best Vault 88 guide I’ve found!
I love your video series, I know it's late in the game now, ancient history for you, but my son got me Fallout 4 for my last birthday and I've been hooked for the past 3 months. This vault construction however, is insane, and your tutorials really help a lot. Between yourself and others like Oxhorn and Skooled Zone, this fairly glitchy game can be tamed for a great settlement building experience. Keep up the good work, love your vids and love your voice.
Thank you very much!
The prebuilt reactor transmits power through the floor. Use a Vault Power Conduit under POWER>CONNECTORS&SWITCHES
what conduit there's 4 of them
Or mods
@@ethanferrell9901 yeah I just use a mod thats on console where I just place a switch and it gives any settlement it's placed in 10000 power
Thank u for this info
I used the conduit but still does not produce power to the elevator.. I feel like I'm missing something
Just got FO4 a couple weeks ago and the vault add on the other day. I took your basic idea for the atrium, but doing the rest my own. Thanks for your videos.
I love the cat just meowing in the background its so funny
Just found this channel and I've gotta say, so far I'm really impressed with your settlement builds. You're actually the only settlement builder I've found that doesn't just talk about random stuff in their videos and instead you provide a detailed guide on your settlements which has definitely earned you another subscriber.
8 years later and its still really helpful. Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to creating videos like these for people like me.
28:05 : “Is it the same”? Cat: “mrow”( No can you feed me now)
Hi. Here i am 8 years later watching all your Vault 88 videos. I wanted to thank you because after watching your videos (i was stuck on what to do) the ideas just kept coming. 😁
Thanks a lot for these tutorials. I recently just started playing Fallout 4 again (out of boredom). My first time around, I didn't build *anything* down there because it was so overwhelming. I had a ton of beds, a ton of crops, and a ton of settlers to man those crops... that's all. No walls, no lights, lol. Didn't matter because I used the Red Rocket as my "home" anyway. This time around I'm building a proper vault to live in. I've only watched this first video, but it's great so far. This is lots of help.
I got recommended to here from the comments on a vault 88 build (tour) video.
This video is exactly what i have spent the best part of a day searching for.
Thank you so much for doing this however many years ago. I got in the vault and was completely stumped. You explained very clearly what to expect and I appreciate that too!
Thank you from one Dovahkiin to another.
thank you for the way you have presented your how to build. i have had this DLC for ages now but not done much with it as i have had no clue whats so ever and you dont make me feel like a dufus. RESPECT
You are incredible. I watched this video when you first posted it to help me build the vault back on my ps4. Finally got my first pc so had to come back to this beauty of a video to re jog my memory! Out of all the vault 88 tutorials this is the best!
You just gained a subscriber. I've been looking at other channels for a basic guide how I want to shape my vault but none of their videos were very good. However this video was amazing and you explained how things worked. Keep up the great content
Thank you! And welcome to the channel. :)
Fallen_Rogue55 Welcome! :)
+Wasteland Dovahkiin we practically have the same name lol
Fallout4Skyrim Ha!
Look my channel, it is in Italian but the contents may interest ..
The moment she put the first part, that was the further in the building part 😂😂. I didnt understand how it work so thanks you really much
Finally another person who doesn't play on pc
Crazy yeah I know I play on Xbox one
Savannah Washington Xbox is just more comfortable
Crazy I play on PC with a controller. Console commands are amazing
Crazy I'm a PS4 and xbone player
Dropped crazy I was anally probed by an Xbox controller
Great video, Very surprised there isnt a lot of videos that can compete with this guide, STILL VERY USEFULL !
Thank you. I was so stuck with just getting started. Now Im rolling along. Definitely subscribing to your channel.
Thank you, welcome :)
So I’ve been playing fallout 4 ever since it come out but never had enough money to get the DLCS, now I bought all the DLCS and I had trouble building this vault, I looked up other videos on how to properly build it but none of them really gave step by step directions on how to build it, thank you for this playlist 🖤
You can still build overseers desk first if you want. You cant move it because the lady is sitting. Have her get up and move to move desk around. Good video though for sorce of info. 👌👌helped me alot thanks.
thanks for the ideas and looking forward to more from ya
I found this quite educational. I followed your build step-by-step and I found that if you had put the glass in the Overseer's window early on, you could attach the office directly to it.
I'm looking forward to reviewing further builds.
Great channel with great videos, you have mastered Bethesda and your content is original and cool, Keep it up!
I'm so happy I found your channel.... started this last might and was so lost because building and designing is not my strong suit. LBS!
Welcome! :)
I legit clapped when you got the Overseer's windows to line up. I'm doing another playthrough right now and I never would have figured out those Atrium pieces without this video. Loved your Nordhagen Beach and Abernathy Farm builds too! I hope you are well. Thanks for all the building tips!
Thank you for this. The vault space is indeed intimidating once everything is cleared out. Just wish there was a way to connect the vault to the other parts of the cavern.
you can link like 80% if caverns
Just copied this exactly in Oct 24. Whatever you do don’t use 8 atrium pieces in length 🤦🏻♂️ definitely 7!
Brilliant though I’ve been anxious about this build before stumbling on this vid. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
just bought this DLC yesterday and i dont have a clue how to build my vault!! hope to get some help from your videos!! great voice btw good job with the videos!! congrats u got yourself a new subscriber!! :-)
Which DLC is it
@@finnleyy5501 vault tec
I’ve had the vault DLC for years and I could never fully commit. Just restarted and this video series has seriously helped me figure out the first steps to getting a vault going. Thank you so much for your time and effort!
After only just buying the vault-tech dlc, and being utterly stumped for ideas, I turned to TH-cam for just another mindless tutorial for a Vault, but instead I found a great channel with amazing content and perfect personality. Thank you for not being another droning you tuber that just shit posts. Have a great day and Christmas and keep up the good work!! ;)
Thank you! Welcome to the channel :-)
Replaying Fo4 and always come back for this video just because I can't make a vault that I'm satisfied with.
I love you so muuuuch in a platonic way because this is exactly what I've been looking for
Really, really appreciate this guide. I had no idea where to start and my vault was a mess. With this I was able to get going and make some nice areas.
I really enjoyed your video so very helpful wouldn't know what to do if I haven't watched this so big thanks for helping me out
Omg thank you I struggled all day till I found this idk why I didn't realize it's supposed to be a vault lmfao
That's how they get you... Stupid vault pieces they don't FIT together at all, until they do. It's like putting together dinosaur bones
Hope you don't mind me not having any creativity I'll just steal your vault build 😂😂😂
For years I could never get vault 88 perfect. Thanks to you, it's finally amazing
I started playing fallout 4 again with the dlc's on and this walkthrough has been immensely helpful and this vault has a nice feel to it so thanks
It's so cool, as a woman myself, to see other women playing this game
Loads of women play fallout
A woman here who loves Fallout! ^_^
+Lucky Shot Films I didn't know that so its reassuring. Everyone usually calls me weird :P
+Narcotic Reptile nah your alright everyone gets to play fallout no matter who you are :)
+Lucky Shot Films truth
Oh my gosh thank you so much. building this freaking vault was so damn upsetting.
Killing the overseer will complete the quest.
"Vault Tec disliked that."
How can you say that. Honestly. We all deserve a better future underground.
troll
Well at least I'm no liberal
General whale making me lol , funny guy.
You are saving me! I have never been a gamer. Fallout is the first I have ever tried. I wanted to tackle making a vault but I had no idea where to start. Thank you for making things easier to understand!
This comment made me laugh because every gamer who has trouble 😵💫 with this is like yeah... Only non gamers struggle with this.... And hide in the bushes like that homer Simpson meme. Myself included
Screaming at PC? Check :) lol
7y later, 😂, but I need to say, the overseer window, use a glass piece of overseer window, then you can snap it and begin up to bottom, I hope you know that by now 😂, good guide tho, needed a reference, only place I want to build manually, since SS2 everything is easier, better, and more loveable 😊
What I did was 1st floor underneath the overseer office I've build there a small security office, my stairs are going like this example,
==Overseer==
( < Stairs on the left side from the bottom to 1st floor ) ( > this is from 1st floor to 2nd for overseer office ) this is what I did based on your layout 😊
there is a merlic queen down that tunnel
Mirelurk*
Samuel Bastable Yeah haha, im shit a spelling
The good news is, it won't fit in the tunnel, so you can shoot the crap out of it and take virtually no damage.
+Noledad77 lol that's what i did
+Wzrd same lol
This is very helpful! Don’t worry about messing up. I came here because I couldn’t figure out how to build this vault so it’s nice to see someone work through the issues with it.
Just what I needed! Nice to have good girl gamers around! :) I'm a long time fan of RPG's, and I use my own moral standards when gaming, to a certain degree. So I like to have Piper around. Not the best fighter by far, but the one I can relate most to. I sent Cait on a supply line, and she really hates it! ;)
Thanks to your fumbling along, it's saved an awful lot of my own fumbling! Thank you & subbed :)
Glad it helped, welcome to the channel! :)
waited for this cause i suck at building the vault
Agreed. I knew I wanted to build the atrium first in the main hall, but after that and how to line it up was giving me fits. I appreciate her showing how to use the atrium pieces rather than just saying this is how you place them.
I may end up using her starting atrium in my play through for a base, then expand beyond. Thank you so much WD ;)
+Twi-Man il just build the same thing and for rooms i should be fine
You are probably the only one out there that has ACTUALLY physically Made A Proper seires of building a Vault
Kudos to u
some of the shit ive tried building wont fucking snap to each other
I love how she does one thing and goes back and completely redoes every thing she did.
you are a tad bit irradiated darlin
jack cook it's just her glowing personality
This video really helped me to get started on my own vault thanks 👍👍
she deserves more subs
This is dope. Like 20 hours of content on how to fully understand this FINALLY..thank you so much.
Dat cat tho
TITANIC officer lol
So that's how the stupid door frames work.
Thanks for putting this together - still useful to people 6 years later!
Uggggh I ran out of friggin rubber!!!!!!
If you're on console, there's an easy way to duplicate basic materials, not items though. But things like rubber, steel, wood, etc will work.
1) Get a save, just in case anything goes wrong
2) Go into the workshop and take all of the item you want to dupe (in this case, take all of your rubber)
3) Drop all of your material (rubber) on the ground.
4) This is the hard part. HOLD your finger on the 'scrap' button, because the option to scrap only appears once the button is released. Now you want to quickly slide your finger off the 'scrap' button and on to the 'store' button.
If this is done correctly, you'll see two windows appear, press 'yes' on both of them.
Now let's say you had 20 rubber, if you scrapped and stored that 20, you'd end up with 40 rubber.
Repeat this as many times as wished.
You have an understanding of this game and just like angles and stuff that I don't think I could ever match. I'm jealous. I know I'm late to the party but thanks so much for the vids. Big help.
How do you get DEFENCE in vault88?
with the guard posts
turrets.. 8 monthsbut ye. I didn't build a atrium for mine so Icould have more room for every single room. I just put heavy laser turrets by the entrance and guard posts inside incase raiders spawn inside which they do. and I believe they can kill barstow so you want ot be careful with that.
Building vault 88 seemed almost overwhelming for me. This seriously has help and I appreciate how you do it step by step.
you have such a great voice, have you ever considered making ASMR videos?
Pardon my ignorance, ASMR?
+Wasteland Dovahkiin no pardon to be had! they're videos to help people knock out with the quickness, you have a soothing voice and I just thought that it would be awesome if you made one
Ah, okay. I hadn't thought of it. Truthfully I never thought my voice was all that special. But apparently a lot of people think otherwise, lol. It's been quite a bewildering surprise to me, to be honest. But thank you, I am flattered.
+Wasteland Dovahkiin no thank you for all your super helpful guides and tips!! You've helped soo much! And yes your voice is quite special! very easy on thee ears
Wasteland Dovahkiin is this a mod dlc or can you do this for free
years later, still grateful that this video was made.
Thank you. I had no idea how to start this entire build but now I do.
You just gained another subscriber. Hands down the best video on vault-tec building. Thank you so much for this great guide.
Thank you! Welcome to the channel :)
Ughh finally something I can understand! Thank you! I was so lost with the walls.
So a few years ago when I got fallout 4 for my Xbox One I followed your videos on building my vault and did a mix of doing what you were doing and winging it on my own and I absolutely loved the result. But, I ended up using mods and some of them were deleted and I wasn't able to find them again so my vault was absolutely obliterated. I was honestly very heartbroken because I worked so hard on it. I just recently got it for the PS4 and have decided to give it another shot, so I seriously want to thank you for working so hard on this build series. From one vault dweller to another, I know just how aggravating the vault building can be.
You are doing better figuring out these things than I would. That is why I watch these videos.
Finally. A video with actual building instead of just traveling and gaining access to parts of the vault.
As for the Overseers issue you had, i found out that inserting the round glass in the hole will then let you put that other piece over top of it from the outside where you were!
Ik this is 7 years old but id still like to let others know too incase they run into this video with the same problem 😊
Amazing thank you so much. I stream this game so I was looking for a way to do certain Vault 88 builds.
Absolutely love this! I started building with no clue as to where I wanted things.
it really helps seeing the trial and error when building thanks for sharing your work .
Oh good, because there's definitely going to be a lot of that, lol!
+Wasteland Dovahkiin I agree with Rusman80 , seeing the trial and error really helps because I'm sure a lot of us are scratching our heads on layout design. Thanks for the video ! I kind of was thinking a short hallway and then the atrium and take it from there. Thx again !
+Wasteland Dovahkiin honestly I wouldn't have known where to start without your help you're an awesome designer
Thank you very much. This made making my Vault sooo much easier. Once the atrium was out of the way everything else was easy
Thanks for posting this, really needed the info on snapping things (those damn hall to doorway segments). I even borrowed your atrium for inspiration, though ran the overseer's steps off the upper level, where they fit in well.
The only Useful vault building video i have found so far. thanks =D
I'm late to Fallout 4, but this is something I have been having trouble figuring out. Thank you! Seeing you as you learn makes me feel like I am not completely dumb. :)
This is a while after but using your videos as a tutorial is really helpful, I was so lost starting to build the vault but your inspiration really helped to also give me my own ideas
ive used your guide 2 times now for my playthroughs thank you for all the effort you have put in
Building is my favorite part of this game and I'm going crazy with vault 88. I played this game multiple times so now I'm playing with mods and just have to get Vault 88 built. I'm already loving this series and will definitely finish up watching! Thanks for the great info, SUBSCRIBED! 😂
You are a legend this is the proper way i wanted to build my vault but i didn't know how to do it because of the connections of parts Thank You!!!!
I am 8 years behind, but this video is super helpful!
Absolutely loved this. So easy to build with u directing me. Love it thank you
2023, video still holds up, very helpful. Thank you
Vault 88 is such a big space that I'm so daunted by the task of building something NICE. 3 years later I actually get to the DLC
This was such a challenge... Thanks a lot for your video, it helped me out a lot and felt like I wasn't struggling alone xD
