I use them a lot. One ball ache is that I like to put a building wall on the gap under the turrets facing outwards to make it look less rickety, but it makes the whole thing really finicky to place.
I’ve followed you since Fallout 4 days, I’ve only just started playing Fallout 76 (pre 30 rank) your building techniques are now perfect for me starting out with my camps!
Why am I only finding you now! Thank you for this, so very, very useful for this fellow builder addict! One thing I've found that helps with trying to place blueprints of actual houses, is not including the stairs in the blueprint and just adding the stairs on afterward. I have a much easier time placing a larger "house" blueprint when it doesn't have stairs; I think the stairs are finicky and limit where you can place things. Not a great tip, you probably already know it haha, but figured I'd share anyway 😀 Thanks again!
Also: how to do certain tricks on different platforms. I'm on PC, and would love to know how to move things along a selected plane using an actual keyboard.
Nice tips, especially with the posts! One you didn't mention was how to put a turret on top of a concrete defence wall; put the turret onto the smallest mat, this allows you to pick up both and place (on the join between 2x walls). Was well chuffed when I discovered that one!
You’ve always been good about making tutorial videos and it’s really great of you. You help a lot of people. If I lived near you, I’d buy you a pint for being such a decent sort.👍😁
love these tips, they inspired me to make my own Alien invader defence ships! basically its the alien space ship jungle gym play area prefab filled with a little generator and some laser turrets at the entry points. they are great for defending extractors partially because it confuses the hell out of other plares to see half a dozen space ships helping with your molerat problem XD makes great photos too XD
One useful building eccentricity I found is that the behaviour for doorways (what you can remove, what you can snap to them, etc) is different to walls/windowed wall panels - but then once you're done you can switch the doorway to the wall variation in place with the modify/replace option For example I've used this to sink walls part way into the ground (a second wall will snap to the bottom of a doorway, if I remember correctly, but not a wall), and to allow me to remove foundations that otherwise would have complained about unsupported structures. Hard to explain in text, but experiment with what you can move/attach/remove from a doorway vs a wall, and remember to just finally change the piece in place (without removing or picking it up)
You can stack the framed staircases using the pillars. Place a foundation, snap a pillar to the foundation in the middle, stack the pillars, snap the staircases to the pillars. You can do some interesting stuff with this.
For my workshops, if i plan on keeping them for a long period to stockpile resources, I'll make a little 2×1 shack with a bed, an instrument, and some lights just to keep refreshing my well rested and well tuned perks so i always have ap regen and xp bonuses while I'm there. Plus then i can heal between defences without using aid items.
Just started FO76 recently and been watching your FO4 (and I think Skyrim but that could be EpicNate) videos for a long time, keep up the good work! I just wanna say, I did try the rug glitch. Build rules be damned lol I wanted to put more stuff in my trailer and wasn’t surprised at all that it worked XD
13:56 my OCD got a little shaky here lol, I would have flipped one of the boxes 180* so that the hinges met in the middle properly......but that's just me haha
Started out with a one room shack in the forest. Now, I have a two story brick mansion up in the Savage Divide with a generator room, vending veranda, and full garden. Any tips on floating razorgrain?
You can also use your camp module for figuring out what is removable and what isn’t while you’re in the process of trying to figure out where you want to place your camp. Use half height posts to set foundation heights to match half height walls. Don’t be one of those tards who puts a foundation down and spends 20 minutes trying to eyeball it. Work smarter not harder.
Hi, great video. I’m really needing a vintage water cooler as I’m moving my camp to whitespring as I hate enemy spawns when in my camp. I need a water supply and that’s the only way I know how to get one without a natural water supply nearby. There doesn’t seem to be plans anywhere. Any advice? 🙏
4:52 False, you can, just extend out the platform, make a hovering corner and do it again. I did it for my front porch and have a full series of supports (also the white hanging light bulbs).
Keep making these tips and trick videos for building. A lot of my settlements in Fallout 4 I built with no mods. Until mods are put in a 76, we will have to make due. Thanks
I might have to pinch some of these for Fallout 4 because quite a few of these could work there too. It'd give the buildings a bit more 'flesh' and character to make them stand out and be unique.
Thank you for showing us those. Maybe you could do a building tutorial for some blueprints that you can place down "for free"at any workshop (since you get access to some materials once you own it). Just some quick bases to place down at will with everything you might need (bed, a crafting station, instrument, turrets, cool design :P ) without actually paying any material.
The tip for quarter-height foundation stepping is brilliant. I'm going to try that in my next build with a Fusion Generator, to slightly sink the two tiles underneath the generator and give me a bit more working height between it and the upper floor above it.
I still have my “camp” under the bridge in The Mire, quite profitable shop I have there, people think it a great idea that IVE come up with - thanks fam
do you know how to move camp objects that are placed just below the water surface? i placed a floor piece that way and i can see it clearly but cannot interact with it
not yet, unfortunately, and I've had the same issue in the past. In that instance, I just place my camp down again in the same spot, as it packs everything away.
@@norespawns i did that. but i was building under the bridge so you know from autopsy, the floor was a bitch to place. and it took me way longer the second time :D thanks for the idea btw. and good luck with 100k. so close. nuka cheers
Will you maybe consider build a base at vault 51 I checked and you can build a base at the vault and their is a oil reserve their to idn maybe it could be a cool build Just Something to consider anyway love your vids hope you keep doing what you're doing
the windmill genny seemed to snap onto the top of the 2-level staircase for me, on my last home. i didn't get it on video but it snapped to it somehow.
I bet the windmill generator would place normally if you created the blueprint with the additional foundation pieces and then just remove them anytime you place the blueprint.
correct - you can tell as the required resources are in green if they're being used by the public workbenches pool and in white if it's your personal stash. Worth noting that the available resources are limited, so you check before you place anything down.
Great information, but you go so fast it is driving my ADD/HD crazy! Ha ha ha @ self. I have watched this twice, and i will need to rewatch it more so i can fully grasp the "how to". Thank you for sharing your work.
You might know by now, but... putting Fasnacht confetti on the ground before placing your foundations usually helps to keep that grass permanently away.
I tried this and got the super fun glitch with floating upper floors that refuse to delete. Had to scrap my whole camp :,) norespawns is great but this game is still so buggy years on
I've been playing since LAUNCH and I didn't know about pressing L1 and R1 to raise and lower stuff. Mind blown.
How do you do it on pc?
The......WHAT?!
Works the same way on pc if you use a controller
It was the same for fallout 4 :)
Great info dump. those stair/turret platforms are genius. So simple but effective.

Great video, small request: stickied comment with timestamps for each trick

Ideas on the public defenses are so handy for a newer playing like myself. Thank you so very much.

@SinisterHAND I've only recently learned, so I figured it wasn't that public lol
@Dethedrus No? you just have to work backwards from where you end up, I've literally done this.
Just started playing 76 and this guide is great!subbed

The white patio tables make good turret stands, too. Can be put on the little shack guard posts to raise it up a bit
Thanks for the blueprint tips! Always knew that was a feature, didn’t realize the benefit until now.

Thanks a lot man, love making bases that actually make sense and those steel supports are HUGE!

It's the wastland it's supposed to be messy.

Regarding the tip at 2.05, if you have Fallout 1st you can use your Survival Tent to check whether you can "bulldoze" items.
Nice and effective! Thank You! I Think those stands for turrets are quite pretty in their effectiveness!
Thank you I have had so much trouble building with the metal supports
You can also use your camp module for figuring out what is removable and what isn’t while you’re in the process of trying to figure out where you want to place your camp.

This video helped me so much. Thanks mate.
Thank you for posting - VERY helpful !
at 12:42 use a campfire than and place the windmill on the edge of it it is a small usefull glitch

Question re we dismantling a base why do I have some walls and floors that refuse to scrap? Have tried to move in reverse order and it did not help.
sometimes that happens unfortunately, best bet is to just place you camp down again to store everything
Great tip video, I learned alot.
I still have my “camp” under the bridge in The Mire, quite profitable shop I have there, people think it a great idea that IVE come up with - thanks fam
I want to be able to build things that look new
I wanted to do this to my camp but I couldn't figure out how to do it, Thanks!!
Thanks for the tips!
This was actually really useful.

How close is building compared to fo4?
is ultracite power armor speedrun possible because i get it on lv 23.
are heavy laser turrets worth it?
Phins Blazers no. Lvl 2 machine gun turrets and missile turrets. Heavy laser turret barely does any dmg to 68+
what with the doormat trick? u can place "anything in anywhere" if u put the object in a doormat and then move both.
How do you move more than one item at once?
Brilliant video!
I bet the windmill generator would place normally if you created the blueprint with the additional foundation pieces and then just remove them anytime you place the blueprint.
Great vids keep them up
So if I take over a power station and build my fusion generator to power a fusion processor
, it doesn't use my resources?
correct - you can tell as the required resources are in green if they're being used by the public workbenches pool and in white if it's your personal stash. Worth noting that the available resources are limited, so you check before you place anything down.
@@norespawns Thank you and a subscription for you Sir!
What a legend, helped heaps.
Dead set iv been winding how to use the poles since the start! Thank you!
how and where is the post? wahts the name of the plan
Nice tips ty
So how are othet players able to block my camp? Essentially making me move my camp.
It feels like watching a Minecraft tutorial, really nice.
Great information, but you go so fast it is driving my ADD/HD crazy! Ha ha ha @ self. I have watched this twice, and i will need to rewatch it more so i can fully grasp the "how to". Thank you for sharing your work.
They should make it so you can bulldoze and it would stay there untill you remove your camp
Bad ads vid. Thx. I'll use allot of these.
I been playing for some time now and the raising and lowering I never knew and was wondering why they didn’t add It😂
But now, the grass is growing thick throw my floors...Bethesda, Bethesda, Bethesda...sigh
You might know by now, but... putting Fasnacht confetti on the ground before placing your foundations usually helps to keep that grass permanently away.
Looks like you put your build in reverse in scrapping it ???
Thank fook you've done this😄😄😄😄 Frustrated is the word that comes to mind while trying to build
CAMP Building = Black Magic
So beside's the blueprints these tips work in fallout 4, rights?
yup
Where is this camp?
Would love to play with you sometime.
can you make a BoS camp please
I tried this and got the super fun glitch with floating upper floors that refuse to delete. Had to scrap my whole camp :,) norespawns is great but this game is still so buggy years on
Good practical stuff.
How to do on PC ?
The mouse wheel moves things back and forth. Then if you hold E and use the mouse wheel again it will go up and down.
@@brandonnoble15 Thank you !
this man is the grian of fallout
Last comment, such and honor
Still not 100k come on Davy you can do it man, I believe in you
I moved my camp and know it only let's me use one store
No joke but can you make a 90s guide, in anticipation of the BR mode.
BR mode?
THANK YOU FINALLY, this game has the worst building mechanic ever
I quite like it
Instant click and like
Anybody else use kb and mouse for building or just me?
I have proof
Ok, but you don't need to comment it
Nintendbro-Evin 64 sorry it’s the greatest achievement of my life my mum is very proud
Oh my god first like not kidding
