My advice is to always build a bar. By which I mean a food vendor. Because it’s (I believe) the only buildable thing that settlers automatically gather around after work hours. So if you have a big settlement and build a bar, it’ll be PACKED around 9-10pm and it’s delightfully immersive
Cattywampus is such a good word. Cattywampus. Cattywampus! Hah! I love the lion outside the cabin. It's exactly the kind of ridiculous, bizarre decoration you find in a happy, functional, wild community.
I don't think I've ever heard the phrase "Cattywampus" before, I love it! I also don't mind that you place things randomly off-kilter, it feels more realistic to me. Sure, in our lives we like things to be perfectly perpendicular and at right angles to stuff, but in a post-apocalypse? I really don't think they'd care about the placement of furniture and carpets that much, filing cabinets are heavy, man, they'd drop that where it is as soon as they possibly could!
This is gonna expose my insanity, but the fact that that plate at 1:00:31 is named "Yellow-Trimmed Plate" has always bugged me, because it's just the clean version of the "Yellow Plate" that you also have there. There's also red versions of those plates, where the clean one is appropriately named "Clean Red Plate". And don't even get me started on MacCready's "wooden soldier toy" breaking down into ceramic...
I went back and redid 5 settlements after watching your videos, thinking about the why of my builds and the story they tell. I’m also claiming all the settlements under the minute men. I play on survival mode, so my challenge is I have to put an impenetrable wall around them, because attacks are brutal.
For Sunshine Tidings, I always love to make it a "sanctuary" for rouge robots and synths. They work closely with the railroad, but they tend to stay to themselves, however.
Definitely stealing the double painting trick. Game changer! I usually set Sunshine Tidings as Hancock's home location just so he doesn't miss the community building business
Never played fallout before 2023 and didnt know anything about it other than *shooter game in a post apocalypse setting*. Watched a video of someone playing on TH-cam and one of your settlement builds was in my recommendations. Love love love your builds, the cozy lived in feeling and the fact that you dont use mods or glitches. I am bad a video games and can't get them to work for me. Your videos have inspired me in my own builds and I look forward ro all your uploads and tv show updates. Thanks!
I’ve been loving these build videos! Totally inspired me to slow down and save some of the cute junk to decorate my builds instead of trying to build cities and pack in as many settlers as possible 😅
I'm still debating on what way I should go, big tidy fully buitl/repaired cities vs organic ones. But her videos are making me think I would go for the second option, feels more enjoyable to me for some reason. Maybe her vibe has a lot to do with it I guess...
I found your channel recently and I've really been enjoying your videos :) Also, I have to say, as someone who literally cannot live without scrap everything and place everywhere mods, what you manage to create with just the base game is genuinely so impressive.
Groovy counter: infinity! Re not aligning everything perfectly, I think that makes it feel more organic and true to life. Great tip with the layered paintings - I am going to try that in my Home Plate bedroom!
The hand held oil lamps with the glass flute sit really nice on the windowsills of the old houses. It's nice because they can't sit on anything other than the floor for some reason.
Oh yay!! A perfect, mellow video to chill with on the side while I work through my monthly financing/budgeting like a 'functional' adult! Thats ✨l o v e l y✨ (Thank you for your constantly comforting content, the gentle company brings such peace 🩷)
Same! Relaxing enjoying this, catching some ideas and realizing that I dont need to build a settlement in a perfect way to enjoy building. Happy relaxing sunday so far.
I really wanna watch you play the whole game because you have such a cute and adorable style and I would love to see how you play the game as the general
You've inspired me to start a fresh Fallout 4 playthrough after watching your settlement building videos 😊 Also, your videos are great. They have such a calm vibe, I find myself coming back to listen to them while working on other things. Can't wait til the next video!
I usually keep trees in place along with various other non-wrecked scrap I otherwise can't move or place, trees being the main one for me; sort of as decor, only scrapping them if I need that space. But I can see how Sunshine Tidings might work easier as a sort of meadow
@@IfThenCreate you’ll probably stumble into it before he gives it as a quest haha. I loved the little shack you built around the control tower thing at Oberland. I’ve always just built around the perimeter using mostly boxcars and left the tower by itself. Love your designs!!
One sad thing about Professor Goodfeels is that in a vanilla setup, he has the tendency to disappear. There are ways to bring him back with console commands as he is just in a disabled state. I have a mod installed to prevent this all together.
Have you considered collecting the Creation Club items. Everything in the WORLD category has something to do with settlements, objects, and player homes.... the collection of stuff is really nice. Also, have you considered building in smaller settlements like Hangman's Alley or Coastal Cottage for a real building challenge? What about mods to expand the build limit or place anywhere. What are your thoughts on that? Just wondering because I just completed Hangman's Alley and made it an efficient player house in survival for 20 settlers and I'm quite proud of it. I wish that I could show up by sharing the save file but I may have to settle with a video or something. Anyway, I want to show you what I've done too
Do you have the trade caravan post? I thought that would be perfect by the general store. You get it from the quest that opens Bunker Hill as a settlement.
How do you get access to all of these extra things like traps and security desks? Do they come with higher levels or do you unlock them some other way?
Is the word you're looking for "resgister" for new people coming in? (Edit: You meant intake. Sorry. ) You should get a mod that makes Professor Goodfeels say, "That's lovely! Delightful! I'm obsessed!"
Sadly, professor Goodfeels leave the settlement in the moment you go away, there's no way to keep him in the area. I programmed him as a security guard, he even changed his dialogue, but gone.
YAY I squealed when i saw this was next up 😂❤ I did this one too and I’ve found the dead ghouls I tried to throw off the lot keep mysteriously coming back so I’m curious if this happens to you too 🥹 Also I really wish I remember where I sent Mr Goodfeels…
Evie loves her room! She says thank you very much for the toys and cute little area ❤️
I’m so glad! 🤗
I just wanted to let you know….
I enjoy your settlement builds over anyone else. Thank you and God bless!
I always use diner booths because they are one of the few furniture pieces they actually use, and they snap together for a clean build

I’m so happy to introduce another person to “cattywampus”, it’s one of my favorite words!
@@IfThenCreate I love these kind of words: gobbledygook, flibbertigibbet, bumbershoot! So fun!

I love your channel just the way it is, but I could watch you just play fallout in general for hours ❤
Agree! If there is a streaming channel, count me in for sure.
Yes same!!

I can't wait to see how you utilise the big hall building on the other side. Another lovely video, all the best - Lois :)
pretty pumped for this build, got my booze and cones, time to relax with an awesome video
😂 right there with you! I tend to get super entranced watching these

Just adore the details and thought that goes into these settlement builds, so inspiring 🖤
I would love to see what you do with Graygarden 😁
I has the same question, looked for the video but I guess I'll have to wait. So far so good with the previous ones.
You've inspired me to start a fresh Fallout 4 playthrough after watching your settlement building videos 😊 Also, your videos are great. They have such a calm vibe, I find myself coming back to listen to them while working on other things. Can't wait til the next video!
These are some of my favourite videos to watch, they're so wholesome and your voice is relaxing and so lovely ❤
I would do a no smoking sign near those generators since we don't know if they're gas powered or not 😅
I usually keep trees in place along with various other non-wrecked scrap I otherwise can't move or place, trees being the main one for me; sort of as decor, only scrapping them if I need that space. But I can see how Sunshine Tidings might work easier as a sort of meadow
I would love to see you doing Murkwater construction site, its the swampy settlement
Enjoyed your video!
I’ve never watched a youtube video that’s over an hour long but i absolutely love watching your videos while i build settlements.❤
I’m glad!!
Register is the word you were looking for when placing the security desk. 😅
I’m hoping you’ll take on rebuilding Hangman’s Alley.
I’m planning to! Eventually! I’m trying to do the settlements in the order Preston gives them and I don’t have Hangman’s Alley unlocked yet 😅
@@IfThenCreate you’ll probably stumble into it before he gives it as a quest haha. I loved the little shack you built around the control tower thing at Oberland. I’ve always just built around the perimeter using mostly boxcars and left the tower by itself. Love your designs!!
I cracked up when you Finnair remembered the word you were looking for 😂
grooovy

Hello, thank you for the settlement build.
Especially this one, Just retake this place from my old gang and I don't know what to do with it.
Have you considered collecting the Creation Club items. Everything in the WORLD category has something to do with settlements, objects, and player homes.... the collection of stuff is really nice. Also, have you considered building in smaller settlements like Hangman's Alley or Coastal Cottage for a real building challenge? What about mods to expand the build limit or place anywhere.

I wish that I could show up by sharing the save file but I may have to settle with a video or something.
Anyway, I want to show you what I've done too
Subscribed, great job
professor goodfeels is awesome i like it more like professor goodfellas lol love the building gives me ideas of my settlements while watching you
Hey I love your videos! Was just wondering if after Sunshine Tidings you would consider doing Taffington Boathouse?
I would watch you stream a couple hours of playing the story as well
whoa man
i hope someone gets this reference but it reminds me of the village of fowl devotees in asoue ❤
Very dope I like ur creativity
One of my favourite settlement better with
Do you have the trade caravan post? I thought that would be perfect by the general store. You get it from the quest that opens Bunker Hill as a settlement.
Pipers little sisters name is Nat
are you going to finish all the settlements in the commonwealth first and then do off-mainland DLC ones? or sprinkle them in over time?
I haven’t thought about it! I love Far Harbor so much, I may have to start sprinkling in ✨
One thing I hate about the filing cabinets are they have to go out so far to place and I just want to put it near the wall😔
Sunshine Tidings would be better suited to being a Militia barracks imo, especially with the Raiders living just down the hill.
Lots of super mutant attacks from past the toilet
I believe having Robots in settlements negatively affects happiness, but I think that's mostly from Automatron.
You’re right, robots are capped at 50 happiness which brings down the overall average. I don’t think Professor Goodfeels counts as a settler though!
We in hereeeee
How do you get access to all of these extra things like traps and security desks? Do they come with higher levels or do you unlock them some other way?
Security desks are from vault 88 dlc
DLCs! I think the traps are from Wasteland Workshop, and the security desks are Vault-Tec Workshop
Piper's lil sister is Nat.
How do you get the metal barricade guard post
It’s from the Vault-Tec workshop DLC, once you complete the quests!
Far out...
The way I run to yt on Saturdays now to watch these videos and build along, haha. Thank you for giving my weekends such a soft piece of joy!
That is so sweet, thank you!!

He keeps trying to escape, I keep using cheats to force him to come back 😂
ex~termin~ate
Aaah...Do you know how to get rid of the scattered corpses without cheating??? Its time consuming BIG TIME...
I dragged them out one by one 😅
You have to drag them a long ways away, or they will come back
YAY I squealed when i saw this was next up 😂❤ I did this one too and I’ve found the dead ghouls I tried to throw off the lot keep mysteriously coming back so I’m curious if this happens to you too 🥹
Also I really wish I remember where I sent Mr Goodfeels…
