    And then, you reload the game and the buttons inside the elevator are floating at the top floor and still move with the cabin! *GREAT!*

    So we get to build industrial elevators, but they only work with barns and greenhouses.
    Why... Why would you do that, Bethesda?
    Oh, and there are height limits? Goddammit. Now how am I going to build the tallest structure in the Commonwealth?

    Thanks dude, I've been trying to use these with regular walls and I've only just got around to learning about elevators properly. Thanks to you, My settlement buildings are now looking better than before, Thanks for the help,
    You've earned a sub.

    I always lurk and usually never comment on uploaded videos from users when it comes to a game I am playing/played but I have to say that I love your videos. They are very informative. I took a break from Fallout 4 in January and was curious to see all the settlement things that can be done now with the new content and mods. Keep up the good work!

    The barn roofs work the best the four corner ones with the little church looking tops, or any other one in similar shape, they completely cover the elevator top and look cute lol.

  • @QuantumStarfield
    @QuantumStarfield 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have yet to try these out but using the old tile sets you could use the gap between floors to place the power wires for lighting your structure. Just build floor/roof as normal and use the top/bottom mount power conduits between the floors. Filling the gaps on the outside may be interesting without mods though.

    Hello OxHorn thank you for all your videos i just found you a month ago. But i was wondering if you had any issues with your elevators where the button are above the cabin part? or any of your subscibers have had this happen. I use no mods

  • @MtHawk1333
    @MtHawk1333 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I actually used concrette with them and to fill the gaps you can just use double upper floors.

    • @oxhorn
      @oxhorn  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Great tip!

    • @MtHawk1333
      @MtHawk1333 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Oxhorn It does have a paper thin gap but you really can't notice at all. It can be a bit tricky to get them to snap the way you want them to, but basically you just have to build from the bottom up.

  • @gigglesmcbooger7443
    @gigglesmcbooger7443 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Don't know if anyone mentioned but if you attach a thicker floor tile next to elevator you then can attach the thinner floor tile over the top of the lift and that gives you a flat ceiling over it.

  • @Biff8899
    @Biff8899 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What I really need/want is a modular design, I want a elevator capable of going up to the height limit of the build area, otherwise for many spots its worthless

  • @Jfreek5050
    @Jfreek5050 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    I feel like elevators and the generators powering them would be a big target during raids. Can you imagine if you are on the fourth floor, and someone cuts off the power to the elevator?

  • @Titan-gs6cf

    It would've been cool if you could connect power to each of the different stops on an elevator to make it easier to get power in taller buildings.

  • @dawest767

  • @ablueman2008
    @ablueman2008 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the elevators, but I've had the 4 story ones bug out on me 4 times now. 3 times it's been that the floor buttons on the main elevator suddenly appear 1 floor up. However this last time, it bugged out so I scrapped it and all the floor numbers remain so now I will need to look for console commands to delete them I guess. I hear this issue does not plague the 2 & 3 floor ones. only the 4. Not sure if this is due to me trying to mix with other tile sets or whether the 4 floor ones are just bugged.

  • @technophile0
    @technophile0 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thx, was having trouble figuring out wtf they were supposed to work with...was driving me crazy. I've never used the warehouse or barn tile sets and after looking thru them, I remember why; far too many holes. Where's the 'wall' in this wall?!! LOL So, yeah, I definitely wish they worked with the other tiles. All I ever use is metal & concrete, but still, thanks for clearing that up.

  • @nozdormu89
    @nozdormu89 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    it snaps to pre-built floors, build the floors first then the elevation.

  • @MrPoop23432841
    @MrPoop23432841 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    How are you getting the elevators to place AT ALL on Spectacle Island? It won't even give me that option. The elevator never shows up no matter where I'm looking, and it's royally pissing me off since it's literally the only thing I want to build.

  • @ironie5319
    @ironie5319 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    i find a way to do regularfloors and walls on the elevator but it cost me 2 hours of figuring out how to do it... i do it with stacking concrete foundations to manage the gaps between the elevator floors, its kind of glitchy but it looks good

  • @jairoukagiri2488
    @jairoukagiri2488 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I got the 4 floor elevator to snap to Atrium floors in Vault 88, now trying to figure out what snaps to the floor layers.

  • @TrundleTheGreat
    @TrundleTheGreat 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just use upper floor twice. First snap it to the walls then run your electricity and ride the elevator up. Lay down a second layer of upper floor snapping it to the elevator. Boom no gaps!

  • @bgcorporation
    @bgcorporation 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    What I found that sucks is that the 2nd floor elevator can slightly sink in if you level it with a floor already made (I did this in mechanist lair) but the 4 floor elevator will not. That really bummed me out.

  • @neonnerd1364
    @neonnerd1364 ปีที่แล้ว

    I really wish they worked with concrete. I know you can do 2 floor elevators but I don't like having a 2 floor elevator on every floor. My house is 4 floors but the 4 floor elevator has too big of gaps between the doorway and the floor so with each floor you have to add more and more steps just to get inside.

  • @ryanlavaley937
    @ryanlavaley937 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    elevator roof. use the scaffolding to get yourself to the height of the elevator then choose the smaller scaffold to just take it over the roof. notice: I don't have the dlc this is an educated best guess. let me know if it works

    yea they have pretty much negated the first sets of building assets, they need to do an update and make then as tall as the new walls, they also need to include a hald walk like the concrete has. i have this bug with the elevator where the buttons sit above the elevator.....

  • @rebekkaromanescu8869
    @rebekkaromanescu8869 ปีที่แล้ว

    I guess I’m confused. I’m super late to the conversation because I haven’t played this game in years and now I’m replaying it and I have been putting in more time than ever before but I thought settlers can’t use the elevator? So how could you build a settlement on the overpass and settlers can use it? Because I’m using an elevator for the first time trying to build a room that only I can access to keep my stuff safe. 😭 is it impossible? Settlers keep stealing my power armor that I’m trying to put on display at Sanctuary Hill.

    • @oxhorn

      Yes. To fix this missing elevator buttons, select the elevator in the workshop and move it around. Instead of placing it, press tab to release it and exit the workshop. Buttons reappear!

    I built some 4 floor scycrapers with shops on various levels but it seems like my settlers won't use the elevator? A lot of them just stood outside of the tower. There are a few people in the tower but only the ones that started there when I fast traveled there and I've never seen any of my settlers actually move to different floors. Anyone else have this problem? Can settlers only take the stairs?

I build a small tower for my character in most settlements put a bed down and store ammo weapons and fusion cores in it and when you use stairs, even when their not connected and you have to jump, settlers still end up in my bed and are able to steal my ammo....sorry but my settlers don't need 2000 of an ammo type and a weapon I was saving for me to screw around with. :/

  • @DarkSignal59
    @DarkSignal59 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    i built my first 3 floor apartment building at coastal cottage out of concrete. because of the layout it had, stairs didn't work quite as i wanted to so i decide to remove them completely and replace them with an elevator. i built the concrete building as i wanted but noticed that the upper floors did not match the elevator level. took me another similar building to realize that i needed to connect the floors and walls to the elevator shaft lol still the space in between floors doesn't bother me since it's barely noticeable, i'm just pissed that the settler AI can't use the elevator to get to their beds. they just sit below staring like retards at the ones sleeping on the lower level. you'd think with all the current gen tech they could make non-retarded settler AI but nooo

    • @oxhorn

      If you move the elevator after placing it, the buttons glitch out. You need to enter workshop mode, select it with E, move it, and then release it with TAB. This will fix the buttons.
