Thanks, a good tutorial. 👌👍 At 7:18 min. you take a light in a Helvetia Deko. Another option: I put candles on a Power Armor Shoulder, put the PA back, and now build the Helvetia Deko around the candle.
Yes, power armor works great for that. I've seen that trick before, but I didn't want to plagiarized it from someone else's tutorial. You can use the power armor trick for less of cool floating tricks! Thank you so much for watching and sharing my friend!
I watched this just in time to notice that the bundle with the miniature holiday lamppost is available in the Atom Shop for the holidays. It's a great little light.
Thank you so much! I put in a ton of extra effort on this one. It took me quite a while to demonstrate, film, edit, and voice-over everything. I hope people will find this helpful.
Good complement to nukaviolet tutorial.. almost done with rank 150 of current season and will try to build something decent for camp competition.. great vid love it 😁
Thank you so very much! I wanted to show respect to NukaViolet. She was a pioneer, and her ideas were ahead of our time. I wish she still uploaded regularly. Glad you like the tutorial!
Kind of off-topic, but... the new torches should not count as lights in the build menu, if we have to "manually" turn them on every time we log into the game. All the other lights stay on. B needs to either make it so that it "stays on", or make it into a decoration. 3:22 HOW TO DO THE BLUE ON THIS SET??
Some fantastic tips again Mr Moonlight, Im not the best builder, but I am forever learning, but the lighting is super super important to me, It can change a very average build into a warm cosy haven, or cold blues make it like an underwater cave etc.. It is one thing I love experimenting with. so a very helpful tutorial. 💡💡❤🧡💛💡💡
Awesome Nympoo! I hope you will be able to apply some of the ideas or concepts to your next build. Honestly, I know your builds are quite good already!
I've been trying to work more on my lighting because it totally makes a difference. Oh and I totally used the little lamp post trick in my last build! Made a big difference.
Yes. I believe good lighting has separation, meaning that there are light spots with patches of dark in-between. That's why I love lights that are more subtle, like the miniature holiday lampposts and the yellow diner lights.
The Enlightened Lantern from the mothman equinox event is another small light (bigger than the mini-street lamp) that doesn't take away from your fifty-light budget. And it's free to get in the game if you're lucky enough to snag it from the event or find it in a player vendor. I've been going crazy with that lil' floor object light. And the fire from the last fireplace, the one that snaps into a door frame, that can be found in the lights section, but it also doesn't count against your light budget.
Yes! I've played with the new Fireplace logs, and that is a great option. I've heard about the mothman lamp, but I don't have it yet lol. One cool idea that someone gave me after the video came out. Using the Tiki torches as burners for your stove! I might do a supplemental video about it. They are cool because you have to turn them on every time you move your camp or spawn in.
@@MoonlightCowboyGaming I put one of those fireplace fires in my stove, sure gives a "call the fire department and don't throw water on a cooking oil fire" feels. That fire can be a real pain to place because it doesn't move when you move something it's sitting on. I never thought of using the tiki torches. You could get a steady gaslight blue flame! I hate that the torches keep needing to be turned on, but I can see the value in it too. Just prevents you from merging the torches fully into things for just the glow. But I bet it would look great on a stove.
Knew I should of done a video on poster lights years ago. Was the first...(Debatable lol) but whatever. Glad to see someone got it in a tutorial. Though I managed to clip it into the wall without blueprinting. Great work.
What I love about the tricks in FO76 is the fact that there are often several ways to accomplish the same thing. It was tough making this video, because I was really trying not to illustrate tricks that other content creators had previously featured. I'm really glad you liked the video!
@@MoonlightCowboyGamingWell I struggle using blueprints for some reason and fallout 4 habits are hard to break. I've made a few videos and feel ya. Very time consuming. You make look easy though so respect on that. Top that not many can manage to produce such a level of content especially to such a quality. Nukaviolet has amazing videos as well. And for anyone that sees my videos knows I lack that radio voice 🤣 You're welcome at my waterfall camp anytime my friend.
Great video, do you have a video on a tour or tutorial on the base used in the video? I love how it looks and would like to see more and get some inspiration!
Another great Tutorial 👍👍👍 Please don't always be afraid of copying something. Only a few viewers have a problem with that. You can count them on one hand 😉🙃☢️.
I wish it were the viewers that I needed to worry about. I worry about other elite builders and content creators. Believe it or not, in the world of competitive and elite camp building, there tends to be some gatekeeping with tricks. Some popular builders get mad when a trick is released, especially if they felt like they figured it out first, even if they didn't share it with anyone. Also, I can't possibly watch every single channel to see if someone came out with the idea before me. So I typically I do a search on YT and Reddit to see if someone else came out with a new trick first. If I can't find anything, then I post. (Unless the trick has been or so long that it's hard to find out who did it first.) But as an example, one of my good friends who has a YT channel got harassed by a very popular YT content creator for sharing a technique on their channel. The popular one has shared it first on their channel, and the much smaller content creator didn't think it would be that big of an issue, as the popular person's tutorial was older. I get that some people want credit for their work. And if they ask for it after the fact, it may be fair to add credit in the description. But it can be very cutthroat. And as content creators gain popularity, they get a big target on their back. So for me, I want to avoid being publicly flogged for stealing an idea. And there are a few very popular builders that are only in it for themselves, and don't care about the community unless there is something in it for them. Those are the people I worry about.
I'm flattered and honored! I do my best to teach builders how to do what I do, so everyone can build like me. My only real gift is boundless patience lol!
I cannot find the white springs wall lights unused to light up the clock. The plan isn't at the white springs. Am I missing something? Where is it? Immmmm desperate
Best way to light the Helvetia lanterns is to deploy power armor under the lantern and place the light on the power armor. The light will float when you recall the power armor.
I agree that it's a great way to light them. However I wanted to demonstrate a different way to do it, since many people already know how to do that trick.
The problem with lighting in this game is that it doesn't get dark enough. With a fog weather controller station lighting looks better, it's darker in broad daylight than it gets during the night and lighting actually looks nice. I wish they'd give us propper nights and a better skybox too.
I totally agree that the lighting doesn't get as dark as it should at night. A while back, they made nighttime brighter than it used to be, and I have no idea why.
@@LordFieroGTGaming God rays are SUPER strong around morning until noonish between the forest and toxic valley. Like blindingly, at least in HDR. I just want lights at night to be more visible.
@@YahDude Yeah so true, found it hard to find a good balance in those areas. Thankful we have such videos to show some good ideas to help with that right 😁 definitely learned a few ideas in this one.
Lighting really makes a good build great. Definitely get as many Lighting options as you can. You never know when you will need a light for decor, or it's brightness level, or it' warmth.
It's amazing that candles are not warm light. "Two Flamingos...." reminds me of the saying "Americans will do anything to avoid using the metric system"
Thanks, a good tutorial. 👌👍

That's fantastic! It's truly one of my favorite items for camp building. So easy to hide, with just the right amount of accent light.
Listen well, newcomers, this man is a grandmaster camp designer!
Wow! Thank you so much for the awesome compliment!
@@MoonlightCowboyGaming ofc! 🫡
"For the cost of three flamingos"... that one took me a moment. xD
LOL I often assume everyone knows what flamingos are in the world of camp building. I need to get better at explaining that!
I got that right away - but I'm on the Fallout subreddits so that's where I knew that from!
This was a video I needed to watch. I was so confused about how to use lighting and how to make items merge.
Thank you for the info and tutorials.
Glad you found this video useful! Thank you for watching my lighting tutorial!
Great video again, moonlight, definitely some food for thought! Your presentation and format is very well done!
Thank you so much! I put in a ton of extra effort on this one. It took me quite a while to demonstrate, film, edit, and voice-over everything. I hope people will find this helpful.
Another badass tutorial moonlight♥

3:22 HOW TO DO THE BLUE ON THIS SET??
Those are two slant walls, criss-crossing. One is wallpapered blue, one is not wallpapered.

Yes! I LOVE those lights. You'll usually find them in every one of my builds. Thank you so much for your support, this tutorial was a true PITA to do!
Great video! Another fun lighting is using the different sized fires in floor decor
For sure! Thanks for checking it out!
Absolutely love this! Thank you, again, for yet another amazing tutorial!
I am happy that you found it insightful! Thank you for taking a look!
Great tutorial MC , thank you ❤😊
Thank you Goldie!
This tutorial has fantastic explanations about lighting!
I hope it helps others look at lighting as more than just brightening a space. Thank you, I appreciate your kind feedback!
Fantastic video. Very helpful explanations of different ways to use lighting.
Very much appreciated! Happy to be of assistance!
I agree with FalloutKurier6, most of the lights are blinding! We need some deeper darker tones that aren’t as bright but still ambient.

Nice job!!! Thanks!
Thank you SB!

They were part of an Atom Shop bundle. If you don't have them, look for the other lights (the white ones) from the video. They are an in-game item.
@@MoonlightCowboyGaming btw u r friggen amazing builder . Appreciate the content
@@jessicakennedy5079 Happy that some people like my builds 🥰

Depends on where ones at as well. The mire is much darker then say Whitesprings. Light bloom and God rays are not really as strong elsewhere.
@@LordFieroGTGaming God rays are SUPER strong around morning until noonish between the forest and toxic valley. Like blindingly, at least in HDR.
I just want lights at night to be more visible.
I'd also really love to see some epic sunsets / sunrises. If they can do that in Rust they can do it with this engine.

Great video
Much obliged!
❤ Thank you!
My pleasure! Thank you for watching!
Im new to the game. But I have gotten to the point of max caps. I'm buying everything in player vendors that says "light"
Lighting really makes a good build great. Definitely get as many Lighting options as you can. You never know when you will need a light for decor, or it's brightness level, or it' warmth.
How to get glass Walls?
Put in a Support Ticket with Bethesda and look for Greenhouse Set. Ensure you have enough atoms to pay for it first.
It's amazing that candles are not warm light. "Two Flamingos...." reminds me of the saying "Americans will do anything to avoid using the metric system"
Yes, yes we will LOL! It also amazed me as well the first time I really played with it. This game really needs more warm lighting.
finally, a lighting tutorial by a man.
I'm one of those crazy people that believes anyone can do nearly anything they set out to do. Hope you enjoyed it!
@@MoonlightCowboyGaming I'm one of those people who doesn't lie.
I did the light as a shelves. Could not put a damn thing on them 🙄
They have to be very small items. I just did it 3 days ago. It can be tricky, but items like the decoy duck should go on.
@@MoonlightCowboyGaming I don’t have it 😔
I tried some small stuff
I’ll try again
*crosses fingers *
Unfortunately most lights are way too bright
Agreed. That's why I prefer lights that accent rather than flood.
I like the yellowed cage lights or neon signs. I absolutely hate every single white light in this game. Turns your camp into a hospital
