On PC it's SHIFT. But it doesn't work in construction mode, only in gaming mode. Throw an item out of your inventory, hold the E button (or whatever button you have enabled for interacting) and now you can turn it. When ever you press Shift you change the axis. 😉👍🏻
Nah, Skooled Zone is more like Bob Villa from That Old House. Bob Ross would be SarDeliac, his voice is closer to Ross' and has the happy soft hippie music in the background too.
@@mylvin3183 i would have chose something different.... supercars have poor handling in bad situations..... maybe a restored classic muscle like a Daytona
For pc from ps4 as it relates to the video ps4/pc Tip 1 4:48 D pad / Arrow keys or Shift + WASD Tip 2 6:32 Bumpers / (for flat movement) E + Mouse (for up/down) E + Scroll Wheel Tip 3 9:14 Press down on LS / hold E to pick up and left or right click to rotate and I believe shift changes axies tho im not sure Tip 4 13:45 Pick up then cancel / press TAB to cancel a select item Tip 5 20:40 B / TAB
Thank you, also thanks for making such an informative video i wish i had known about this a while ago but I learned it the hard way glad to see someone out there sharing information for the newer players and even some of the older players.
on ps4 you don't use bumpers for moving up/down, the bumpers make items spin,. Pick up an item in build mode and hold x, then the left stick can make an item move forward/back/left/right
3 years it took me to find this beautiful tutorial, this could have saved me so much time and so many tears. My hair has been going gray from the amount of stress the last 3 days of building have given me. I appreciate you
Its 2022 and I'm really trying to set up settlements for the first time. Dude you are such a life saver and you've got a really great flow to your videos.
After several months of this video being up, I'm so impressed with all the admissions in the comments that even longtime Fallout 4 players didn't know a lot of these tips. That shows you what an honest and mature gaming community we've built here on the channel. 👌
So, on my xbox, I tried doing the axis trick, but every time I pressed select it took me out of workshop mode. Whether I was holding one of the bumpers or not. What am I doing wrong?
Skooled Zone question, do you have a video for effective gardening & where is the best location for such? I would like to get the most out of this for squirrel stew & a few other crafts.
I play on an Xbox One and was just given Fallout 4 this Christmas. I’m at the stage of starting to build my first settlement or at least home base. I’ve watch tons of how to videos on TH-cam but none of them explained which buttons did what on an Xbox . Most of them assume you know all this stuff so I’ve spent hours trying to figure it out. So, for me, this is SERIOUSLY...THE ... BEST!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! You have saved me hours and hours of boring research and given me back the fun of playing. I think I’ll binge watch all your other videos now and save myself a lot of frustration! I’d share this with everyone I know except, in my world, I’m the only one who games. I’m in my early 50’s with grown children, and the few friends I have think I’m a bit weird for playing games. My kids love it though lol. Anyway, thanks again! Thanks for NOT assuming everyone knows this stuff! Brilliant tutorial!
52 here. Not so strange when you consider that I was born the same year the gaming console was invented. I grew up playing on many different systems. Inellivision was my favorite.
4 years..... starting into space... d pad.. omg, why???? Thank you so much. I finally had the patience with this trick to start work on vault 88. Because of your tips I was able to get my 88 framework started. And yes. You can get all your floors and walls flush perfect to lead back to the main room as well as the water purifier room. Was able to connect an atrium in here and a reverse wall in the middle atrium wall about a foot from the purifier connector. Couldn't have done it without you
xbox to playstation is a=x b=o y=triangle x=square rb=r1 rt=r2 sticks are L and R 3 trackpad = middle touchpad used to enter and exit workshop mode remotely ps also has a share button to quickly take screenshots and record videos.
did you realize that you don't HAVE to write a comment? the creator of this video actually said that if you were a PS4 gamer or PC gamer, he would enjoy it if you helped other people, like NEW people that don't know about the PS4 or the game (because a lot of people got Fallout 4 with the PS4) and they don't know the controls,. I understand if i seem like a dumb idiot trying to lecture you, or i don't know something you do, or whatever. But please put some thought into your comments.
I loved the acknowledgement of multiple consoles/platforms without arguments about X being better than Y. Wholesome stuff! We all have our personal preferences but it doesn't matter, it's all about the game :)
It's absolutely crazy that after numerous runs and owning the game on two platforms now, I didn't know you could rotate objects on a different axis, both in & out of settlement building mode. Nuts, absolutely nuts. Great video, very professional & informal at the same time? Good to listen to. Have a like mate, great video. May be late to the party here but wanted to chime in anyway!
To change axis of rotation (9:14) on PC, use your sprint button . Took me a while to figure this out since I have sprint remapped to the middle mouse button. Great tutorials even if you use some mods. The fact that this comment thread is still alive after 5 years is testament to that. Thanks!
Thank you for this comment a year ago! I have just gotten back into the game and have researched EVERYWHERE how to change the axis when placing items and everyone is adamant it cannot be done. I flipped out when I saw this vid, and was so disappointed it was Xbox controls until I saw your comment. My Fallout gaming experience is forever changed :D
I love how charismatic you are and your sense of humor, ever since I got FO4, (kinda recently) you have been one the one of the only youtubers I have watched. keep it up man!
Hello from 2023, Fallout 4 is still fun and your videos are a very useful set of tools for getting back into Fallout 4 and the joys of settlement building. Thanks from the future
Years later, this is the most helpful building explanations. I use to play with mods, but thanks to you, I can now build amazing settlements with out them.
I stopped playing Fallout 4 for over a year but just recently started back up again and I must say, for someone who has over 40 days of game play, I never knew about tip #3. The amount of time and frustration you will save me because of your video has me forever appreciative. Thank you for your dedication to the gaming community as words cannot express how helpful you are. I look forward to watching more of your videos on settlement development and hope you will continue making videos.
I'm new to this because I'm just now trying to work on building cool settlements. For PS4 users, here's the controls for tip #2 - "3D Telekinesis" Hold x until your object is selected and then hit and hold x again. Then use the left stick to move around. For up and down, hold x until selected and then hold L1 and use the left stick. Took me a while to figure out!
You probably explain this better than I understood but for the people that are playing on PS4 that didn't really understand rotating things on their access when you have the object highlighted to move you hold X along with either L1 or R1 or just by itself and then you use the left joystick to move the object
I thought Oxhorn had a monopoly on great Fallout 4 videos but I have to say I am impresssed the first two tips were very helpful. I have been playing F4 since the release date in 2015 and still had no idea about tips 1 & 2. You have a new subscriber..... keep 'em coming!!!
Hi, PC Gamer here. I've played on every system so I can translate the buttons for you if you want. PC: Y= space A= E B= Tab X= R D-pad= arrow keys Start= Enter Other start thing= Middle mouse RT= right click LT= left click RB= alt LB= Q Left stick= WASD Right stick= Move mouse RS= Control LS= Shift Playstation: Y= Triangle A= X B= Circle X= Square D-pad= D-pad Start= start Other start= Select RT= R2 LT= L2 RB= R1 LB= L1 RS= R3 LS= L3
Omg! The change the axis tip is going to help me immensely! Thank you so much! I've been a fan of the series since the first game & ever since Bethesda took over, it's been a great love of mine to decorate my different homes, but I've not played much on a console until Fallout 4!
I know I just finally started playing fallout 4 goty I tried so long to do it the Skyrim way lol I found you can spin the items so I figured I'm missing something glad I found this video
THANK YOU. I came to TH-cam hoping for help on power connectors and got my mind blown by your “3D telekinesis.” 🤯 I’m one of those people who have been obstinately nudging vases right-side up since Fallout 3. You’ve just saved me untold hours of wanting to pull my hair out and possibly take a sledgehammer to my pretty settlements. So, again, thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to make this video. You are a godsend. I’m not really someone who sits around watching how-to videos, but I do believe I’m going to save myself some headaches and watch some more of your series. Fallout 4 settlement building is not the most intuitive learning experience in the world, and you have been super helpful. 🙏
At first: Thank you for this awesome "No Mods Shop Class" Video! I'll work on my Settlement Build Skills and searched for awesome settlement builds (with no mods) as I found your class video. I already knew some of these skills like "Arrows and D-Pad", "3D-Telekinesis" and "Walking through walls". What I learned in your class was changing the axis (Press Stick) at "Item placement" and that I actually don't have to scrap items to reduce building size limit - only to put it back to your box. Thank you for your class :) I'll watch your next videos!
Building is one of my favorite parts of the game and I didn’t know most of these. I’m so excited for the rest of the videos! Also, shout out to the man behind the videos. It’s fun to watch just because of how positive and knowledgeable you are! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I forgot how finicky the building in Fallout 4 was, I'm diving back into it and am sooo grateful for your no mods shop class!!! That's me in the front row, pen and notepad, trying to get learned again!
Played this game for Years...finaly getting into settlement building in 2024 - your vids are informative and entertaining at the same time...New subscriber here...a little late to the party but, if yah don't know, now yah know
Thanks Paul, can't wait for the next video, you have already taught me a few things in this one, the handiest tip for me was the left stick axis change!! This will cut down on my frustration level when placing objects.
The first tip is so obvious. And I even know about this mechanic. But I wasn’t really aware of it. Thanks for reminding me, that this is not just an alternative way to select and deselect things, but it is the much better way. The third tip is pure gold. Never know I can turn this items and I’d never guessed that you can change the coordinate direction. Thanks for these tips. You’re awesome!
Nice you are the reason i started playing fallout 4 learned a LOT from you andin the comments section about this game and history keep up the good work!
Keys for computer! To move in the workshop-menu you use the Arrows. To move an object you hold E and the move with your mouse, to move up and down (y axis) you scroll on the mouse wheel. To store an item you press TAB. To srap an item you press R. (I don't now the other keys)
Officialpoiuytrewq4645 one thing I'll never understand is why Bethesda didn't include half the commands in their control reference page in the manual/pdf.
I JUST found this channel today. I never got too far into the game or too "obsessed" with building in previous playthroughs. But I got back in last week and will definitely be referring to these wonderful lessons for any and all mod-free settlement stuff.
Im going to stop mentioning that i just got into the game a century after its release and just comment. lol. I was going nuts truing to figure out how you rotated items on thier axis and believed you were actually on a computer and had given up on the idea that i would be able to satisfy my OCD by putting things exactly where they should go and faced correctly. lol Even now, what is it 5 years later, your videos are a great help.. A big THANK YOU many years later. Im not sure if it was luck or if i have to thank the person who maintains your channel for pinning or floating the button keys to use on different platforms at the top. After i originally posted my comment, i was hesitant to look and see if someone had posted the info for PS but i didn't have long to scroll to find the button equivalent for my PS4. so thank you to that person.
Its so great to see positivity, not a subscriber but I admire your ability to roll off the criticisms the creators i watch often will be so negative not that its bad but its just a breath of fresh air.
I have about 3 weeks of gameplay in fallout 4 and I never really got into building hardcore so a couple of these tips helped me but I can't wait for the harder build tutorials
I wish I could like this video twice this has been so helpful. Im trying for the peaceful ending were only the institute is destroyed, and as an unforeseen consequence im building lots of settlements. This video alone has spared many hours of frustration during decorating.
Wow! Thanks for this! I'm a PS4 player and its great to see how to do settlements without mods on console! You are great at explaining everything very clearly and concisely! I can't wait to go through all your videos!
Replaying this game now and you definitely skooled me. It's been about 6 years but I'm enjoying this true one of a kind classic game again but now I'm not starring into the sky half the time that I'm building my settlements. Thank you!!!!
He has a voice that suggests he builds some great things which all sound like they’re about to explode and he’s permanently chill about it and convinced it’s all good which it probably would be
The year is 2020, several times 100% This game, all trophies on ps4 and achivement on xbox. 800+ hours in this game, and i still had no clue you could move items in xyz angles (tip nr2). Amazing what youtube can teach you. Thanks for this video, even if its a couple of years late by this point :D
WOW Paul , I didn't know any of this .. I think this is the most informative video I've seen on settlement building..Thanks, you really did a great job and I can't wait to learn more...
Cheers to you bro! It's late 2023 and I'm actually playing Fallout 4 for the first time (PS4). As anyone who's played it knows, the game doesn't explain much to the player in the form of in-game tutorials, so this video is GOLD! Thank you!!
Hello. Xbox-Ps4 Y=Triangle B=Circle A=X X=Square Unfortunately I don't have a Pc sorry :3 But you could just play around with the keys and probably figure it out.
I have to say I watched a lot of videos over the years On TH-cam and other stuff I have to say you are superb with start to finish when it comes to your videos! Also, you can tell you're a really great guy. It takes time and effort to become a good person. There's no doubt in my mind. Have a great one. can't wait to watch more.
I've been playing Fallout 4 for over a year now and on 2 different platforms and some of these even I didn't know about. Can't wait for the next one. :) Also really looking forward to the immersion tour of Vault 42 (I love the Hitchikers' reference there btw!). Keep it up dude!
After tip #1 I was like "Ok, I'm not gonna learn anything new here" Then #2, #3 and #5 came around and I was blown away. I really only thought you could #2 on PC. I truly wonder why Bethesda didn't bother putting these tips in the game, like they seem pretty essential to me. Thanks for all the info. Subbed btw.
I already want to stick fallout back in the console! These tips will really help, I spent so long trying to get things to stand upright! I was also trying to build a huge farm on abernathy aswell as building up around the towers, I got some farm and about 3/4 stories high before I hit the limit and was bummed out! Now I know this stuff it will really help :) Thankyou :)
I came back to FO4, playing with mods this time, but this video still has useful stuff. Your stuff was good enough I remembered over 2 years later who to look to for good advice.
Great vid! I consider myself to be a pretty good builder but I didn't know about some of these tips, this was really helpful! Also, you're a pleasure to listen to, great voice and your commentary stays on point. Weirdly, you kinda remind me of Bob Ross doing settlement building :) In some future tutorial, you have to mention putting a happy little turret on a happy little platform or something :)
Omg thank you, I was getting pretty tired of running outside of my house to not select it. I can't tell you how many times I accidently sent my junk falling to the floor or worse merging with it. I'm sure Danielle was getting tired of it too. 😂
Just wanted to say thanks and give you props for making your playlist oldest to newest. Appreciated. You wouldn't believe the number of anti-binge you tubers whose playlists you can't just relax with your time off, click play all and veg out with.
Figured it out, (2024) for the PlayStation 4 & 5, you do the exact same thing for up and down as you do on your Xbox, hold L1 and X, to go up and down, if you want to go back and forth, it's R1 and X. Thank you for helping me find this.
Hey man. Thanks for the tips. I’ll continue watching all this no mods class. I’m not a builder guy but your videos made me realize i’m missing 50% of the game if I don’t give settlement building a try. Have a great day! Maraming salamat! - Your new fan from The Philippines 🇵🇭
I came back here specifically for the second tip, moving items without walking. I'm always stuck on smaller ledges trying to place things and don't have room to walk, this lets you place things without moving. Such a requirement. I knew you talked about this and couldn't remember. Yay for archiving videos!
Gamer is the master race, it doesn't matter if you drive a Geo Metro, Ford Taurus, or a Pagani Zonda-R . . . we can all agree that at least we aren't on a moped (That'd be Farmville/Candy Crush . . . lol)
Played Fallout 4 for maybe a year and did not know about the ability to fly through workshop with keypad as opposed to hitting cancel all the time and finding open space. What an amazing and helpful video.
Thank you for this video. I remember my son playing this game when it first came out. Now I am finally starting to play it and these pointers are very helpful! I may watch this one a few times as I get it all down.
I don't get the play games like I used to, I've got 3 kids so I just got fallout 4 like 2 weeks ago. This tutorial is so helpful, I've been confused about so many things when it comes to settlement building. I didn't even realize that the few things I thought I understood were wrong. Thanks for the video
@@SkooledZone Your passion, positivity and enthusiasm really is something else. It was truly helpful and something to admire when I needed it all those years ago. Time flies. After the update I was showing my gf your videos. She’s inspired now too! Glad you’re back!
Hey I finally figured out the PS4 controls for moving objects without moving your character. Okay so to move object up and down PS4. Press & hold the Y button and use R3 (rt thumb stick). To move object forward and backward on PS4. Press & hold the X button and use L3 (Lt thumb stick). And to rotate object L2 & R2 (bottom trigger buttoned)
The only one I knew was the “walk through wall” tip. All the others, I’ve been blind to for 6 years. Thank you so much, got yourself a new subscription :)
I am getting back in to fallout 4 and I love your videos! I play sims but I'm not much of a builder. The mechanics are kinda similar. I love how you break everything down. There's no confusion. Thank you so much! I may not be a amateur for long. 😊
Just thought this might be useful.
3:33 Tip #1 Arrows and D-Pad.
6:32 Tip #2 3D-Telekinesis.

And personal thanks from me for Tip #3. Didn't know that you can change the axis. Now It's only need to find out which button makes this on PC :D
Thanks Dennie. I've pinned your comment.
On PC it's SHIFT.
But it doesn't work in construction mode, only in gaming mode. Throw an item out of your inventory, hold the E button (or whatever button you have enabled for interacting) and now you can turn it. When ever you press Shift you change the axis. 😉👍🏻
why wont 3d telekinesis work for me, using the one
What about on ps4?
On ps4 hold x for left right back and forth, and triangle for up and dow
Damn it, I'm watching a fallout builder equivalent of bob ross. This is amazing.
You read my mind
Same thoughts bro XD.
That pfp.. another destiny fan! Is it the will of the traveler? Should all guardians gather to.. play fallout 4?
Nah, Skooled Zone is more like Bob Villa from That Old House. Bob Ross would be SarDeliac, his voice is closer to Ross' and has the happy soft hippie music in the background too.
that explains why i like this channel i just found
When you said something about we all drive different vehicles but on the same road, my eyes were opened.
Yep but ps4 is the 20 year old van with a huge dent on the side
and the xb1 is a prius, does the job by definiton but isnt very good, less power, less speed, less customization.
And then we have the High-End Gaming PC which is a Koenigsegg Agera RS going at 200+ MPH overtaking everyone!

Well this is embarrassing I’ve been playing since it came out ant I did not know the first one
5 years ago didn't know these things
For pc from ps4 as it relates to the video
ps4/pc
Tip 1 4:48 D pad / Arrow keys or Shift + WASD
Tip 2 6:32 Bumpers / (for flat movement) E + Mouse (for up/down) E + Scroll Wheel
Tip 3 9:14 Press down on LS / hold E to pick up and left or right click to rotate and I believe shift changes axies tho im not sure
Tip 4 13:45 Pick up then cancel / press TAB to cancel a select item
Tip 5 20:40 B / TAB
Fantastic. I think people will appreciate that!
Thank you, also thanks for making such an informative video i wish i had known about this a while ago but I learned it the hard way glad to see someone out there sharing information for the newer players and even some of the older players.
Didn't know about changing the way you rotate items.
I cannot get the building items move up/down or left/right with bumpers on ps4
on ps4 you don't use bumpers for moving up/down, the bumpers make items spin,. Pick up an item in build mode and hold x, then the left stick can make an item move forward/back/left/right

You probably explain this better than I understood but for the people that are playing on PS4 that didn't really understand rotating things on their access when you have the object highlighted to move you hold X along with either L1 or R1 or just by itself and then you use the left joystick to move the object
I thought Oxhorn had a monopoly on great Fallout 4 videos but I have to say I am impresssed the first two tips were very helpful. I have been playing F4 since the release date in 2015 and still had no idea about tips 1 & 2. You have a new subscriber..... keep 'em coming!!!
Man, this is EXTREMELY handy. I've put in 300+ hours and I've only just learned a bunch of these things. Very much appreciated man!

Skooled Zone you're welcome!
Playing fallout 4 on my ps5 and needed a refreshing of the building. Thank you again and here I come sanctuary!!!
This man bleeds enthusiasm.
Omg! The change the axis tip is going to help me immensely! Thank you so much! I've been a fan of the series since the first game & ever since Bethesda took over, it's been a great love of mine to decorate my different homes, but I've not played much on a console until Fallout 4!
It’s incredible how one can still be learning, years after playing a game for the first time. Thanks for the video!
Returning to Fallout in 2021 and needed this refresher course. Much appreciated!
So all that practice I did in Skyrim for placing items is useless now??
🤣
I know I just finally started playing fallout 4 goty I tried so long to do it the Skyrim way lol I found you can spin the items so I figured I'm missing something glad I found this video
😂🤣😂
Bruh, placing books in the case at the house in Skingrad in Oblivion. Hours of my life for a perfect house no one would ever see.
Tony Attardo oblivion will forever be the greatest game I ever played
THANK YOU. I came to TH-cam hoping for help on power connectors and got my mind blown by your “3D telekinesis.” 🤯
I’m one of those people who have been obstinately nudging vases right-side up since Fallout 3. You’ve just saved me untold hours of wanting to pull my hair out and possibly take a sledgehammer to my pretty settlements. So, again, thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to make this video. You are a godsend.
I’m not really someone who sits around watching how-to videos, but I do believe I’m going to save myself some headaches and watch some more of your series. Fallout 4 settlement building is not the most intuitive learning experience in the world, and you have been super helpful. 🙏
You changed my view and my perspective on how to deal with console war arguments. Thanks!
This dude's attitude is so chill I subscribed in the first 30s. Good show man.
Really appreciate that my friend. Welcome aboard! 👊
You have the best tutorials hopefully no one calls you a "console peasant"
Haha, thanks man!
At first: Thank you for this awesome "No Mods Shop Class" Video!
I'll work on my Settlement Build Skills and searched for awesome settlement builds (with no mods) as I found your class video.
I already knew some of these skills like "Arrows and D-Pad", "3D-Telekinesis" and "Walking through walls". What I learned in your class was changing the axis (Press Stick) at "Item placement" and that I actually don't have to scrap items to reduce building size limit - only to put it back to your box.
Thank you for your class :)
I'll watch your next videos!
Building is one of my favorite parts of the game and I didn’t know most of these. I’m so excited for the rest of the videos!
Also, shout out to the man behind the videos. It’s fun to watch just because of how positive and knowledgeable you are! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Really appreciate that Caroline! 😊
I forgot how finicky the building in Fallout 4 was, I'm diving back into it and am sooo grateful for your no mods shop class!!! That's me in the front row, pen and notepad, trying to get learned again!
May sound crazy but this isn't only for beginners. Thanks man, we in 2019 though
I'm in 2020 ( ⊙‿⊙) (人･㉨･)♡
Robert Carroll same
Not too sure what the year has to do with anything.
Fallout 4 is one of the greatest games of all time. Been playing this since 2015 . 8 years later, still love it.
I love building and decorating but I would always have trouble placing items on shelves so the x, y and z rotation tip is revolutionary for me, thanks
it's aug 2022 and I just started playing fallout 4 - i love your breakdown. This is helping me learn the basic stuff they just don't tell you!
Dude, I was straight up schooled with the knowledge you dropped.
Wow, after so many years playing i almost skipped the video thinking i knew all there was, but boy was i wrong! This was extremely helpful, thank you!
Played this game for Years...finaly getting into settlement building in 2024 - your vids are informative and entertaining at the same time...New subscriber here...a little late to the party but, if yah don't know, now yah know
You're never too late for this class. ;-)
Thanks Paul, can't wait for the next video, you have already taught me a few things in this one, the handiest tip for me was the left stick axis change!! This will cut down on my frustration level when placing objects.
Perfect 👌
The first tip is so obvious. And I even know about this mechanic. But I wasn’t really aware of it. Thanks for reminding me, that this is not just an alternative way to select and deselect things, but it is the much better way. The third tip is pure gold. Never know I can turn this items and I’d never guessed that you can change the coordinate direction. Thanks for these tips. You’re awesome!
Nice you are the reason i started playing fallout 4 learned a LOT from you andin the comments section about this game and history keep up the good work!
That's awesome man, and will do!
I was today years old when I learned about left and right bumpers to move items around without changing the player location. Bravo!
Keys for computer!
To move in the workshop-menu you use the Arrows. To move an object you hold E and the move with your mouse, to move up and down (y axis) you scroll on the mouse wheel. To store an item you press TAB. To srap an item you press R. (I don't now the other keys)
Chinlow Ctrl (or Lshift) + WASD works the same as arrow keys ; ^ )
Wavri Appleseed I discovered that fact by accident when trying to sprint
Officialpoiuytrewq4645 one thing I'll never understand is why Bethesda didn't include half the commands in their control reference page in the manual/pdf.
I JUST found this channel today. I never got too far into the game or too "obsessed" with building in previous playthroughs. But I got back in last week and will definitely be referring to these wonderful lessons for any and all mod-free settlement stuff.
Welcome aboard!
I can't wait to start putting some of these lessons and tips into my own settlements, I already started on my own settlement and everything!
Nexus r u good at building? Do u have workshop dlc's? Do you have mods?
Hugo Westberg I'm alright but I need improvement, I have all the dlc's and I use some mods but on a separate character.
Im going to stop mentioning that i just got into the game a century after its release and just comment. lol.
I was going nuts truing to figure out how you rotated items on thier axis and believed you were actually on a computer and had given up on the idea that i would be able to satisfy my OCD by putting things exactly where they should go and faced correctly. lol Even now, what is it 5 years later, your videos are a great help.. A big THANK YOU many years later.
Im not sure if it was luck or if i have to thank the person who maintains your channel for pinning or floating the button keys to use on different platforms at the top. After i originally posted my comment, i was hesitant to look and see if someone had posted the info for PS but i didn't have long to scroll to find the button equivalent for my PS4.
so thank you to that person.
👍
6 years later… I learned about the up arrow and no longer look for empty spaces
Its so great to see positivity, not a subscriber but I admire your ability to roll off the criticisms the creators i watch often will be so negative not that its bad but its just a breath of fresh air.
I have about 3 weeks of gameplay in fallout 4 and I never really got into building hardcore so a couple of these tips helped me but I can't wait for the harder build tutorials
I wish I could like this video twice this has been so helpful. Im trying for the peaceful ending were only the institute is destroyed, and as an unforeseen consequence im building lots of settlements. This video alone has spared many hours of frustration during decorating.
Wow! Thanks for this! I'm a PS4 player and its great to see how to do settlements without mods on console! You are great at explaining everything very clearly and concisely! I can't wait to go through all your videos!
Replaying this game now and you definitely skooled me. It's been about 6 years but I'm enjoying this true one of a kind classic game again but now I'm not starring into the sky half the time that I'm building my settlements. Thank you!!!!
You have a soothing voice.
Thanks for saying so. :)
Goldenderp he does
Like a engineering bob Ross
Goldenderp He does I was shocked.
He has a voice that suggests he builds some great things which all sound like they’re about to explode and he’s permanently chill about it and convinced it’s all good which it probably would be
The year is 2020, several times 100% This game, all trophies on ps4 and achivement on xbox. 800+ hours in this game, and i still had no clue you could move items in xyz angles (tip nr2). Amazing what youtube can teach you. Thanks for this video, even if its a couple of years late by this point :D
WOW Paul , I didn't know any of this .. I think this is the most informative video I've seen on settlement building..Thanks, you really did a great job and I can't wait to learn more...
That's awesome.
Cheers to you bro! It's late 2023 and I'm actually playing Fallout 4 for the first time (PS4). As anyone who's played it knows, the game doesn't explain much to the player in the form of in-game tutorials, so this video is GOLD! Thank you!!
Even when times are busy I can always find time to fit in some skool
😋
It's 2024, I have played Fallout 4 multiple times with 500+ hours and didn't know some of this stuff. Great video
Hello.
Xbox-Ps4
Y=Triangle
B=Circle
A=X
X=Square
Unfortunately I don't have a Pc sorry :3 But you could just play around with the keys and probably figure it out.
P.S The Bumpers are the same :3
Poisionesspotato We know this already
Evander Espinoza Oh shit sorry I was trying to help. good for you to know this but others might not.
Exactly Poisionesspotato. Thanks for your contribution!
I have to say I watched a lot of videos over the years On TH-cam and other stuff I have to say you are superb with start to finish when it comes to your videos! Also, you can tell you're a really great guy. It takes time and effort to become a good person. There's no doubt in my mind. Have a great one. can't wait to watch more.
Hey thanks Charles! Your comment made my day 😊
I've been playing Fallout 4 for over a year now and on 2 different platforms and some of these even I didn't know about. Can't wait for the next one. :) Also really looking forward to the immersion tour of Vault 42 (I love the Hitchikers' reference there btw!). Keep it up dude!
Awesome Gabriella, I appreciate the cool comment. And you got the reference too! 👍
After tip #1 I was like "Ok, I'm not gonna learn anything new here" Then #2, #3 and #5 came around and I was blown away. I really only thought you could #2 on PC. I truly wonder why Bethesda didn't bother putting these tips in the game, like they seem pretty essential to me. Thanks for all the info. Subbed btw.
Maybe Bethesda didn't put the tips in the game so TH-camrs like me could make videos about it. LOL. J/K. But seriously, welcome aboard!
I already want to stick fallout back in the console! These tips will really help, I spent so long trying to get things to stand upright! I was also trying to build a huge farm on abernathy aswell as building up around the towers, I got some farm and about 3/4 stories high before I hit the limit and was bummed out! Now I know this stuff it will really help :)
Thankyou :)
✊
I came back to FO4, playing with mods this time, but this video still has useful stuff. Your stuff was good enough I remembered over 2 years later who to look to for good advice.
Great vid! I consider myself to be a pretty good builder but I didn't know about some of these tips, this was really helpful! Also, you're a pleasure to listen to, great voice and your commentary stays on point. Weirdly, you kinda remind me of Bob Ross doing settlement building :) In some future tutorial, you have to mention putting a happy little turret on a happy little platform or something :)
Thanks for the kind words brotha! Request fulfilled, lol: th-cam.com/video/iauUrvDUToA/w-d-xo.html
Omg thank you, I was getting pretty tired of running outside of my house to not select it. I can't tell you how many times I accidently sent my junk falling to the floor or worse merging with it. I'm sure Danielle was getting tired of it too. 😂
I like how easy going you are, good content and keep it up.
👍
I FINALLY GOT MYSELF THE DLCs!!! I didn't realize how better the building aspect of the game was with the DLCs
Hey Paul I learned A lot from this vid thx P.S love this series.
Excellent Bryce!
Just wanted to say thanks and give you props for making your playlist oldest to newest. Appreciated. You wouldn't believe the number of anti-binge you tubers whose playlists you can't just relax with your time off, click play all and veg out with.
this guy is the best
😀
Figured it out, (2024) for the PlayStation 4 & 5, you do the exact same thing for up and down as you do on your Xbox, hold L1 and X, to go up and down, if you want to go back and forth, it's R1 and X. Thank you for helping me find this.
The third one is so helpful thanks!
Sure thing!
I’m still playing till this day fallout 4 and this channel is just great to help me make better settlements, thank you for everything.
I come back to this video every 2 years when i pickup fallout 4 again
Hey man. Thanks for the tips. I’ll continue watching all this no mods class. I’m not a builder guy but your videos made me realize i’m missing 50% of the game if I don’t give settlement building a try. Have a great day! Maraming salamat!
- Your new fan from The Philippines 🇵🇭
👍
Been playing this game for years.... didnt know any of that. Cheers teach. :)
I came back here specifically for the second tip, moving items without walking. I'm always stuck on smaller ledges trying to place things and don't have room to walk, this lets you place things without moving. Such a requirement. I knew you talked about this and couldn't remember. Yay for archiving videos!
Gamer is the master race, it doesn't matter if you drive a Geo Metro, Ford Taurus, or a Pagani Zonda-R . . . we can all agree that at least we aren't on a moped (That'd be Farmville/Candy Crush . . . lol)
you havent played on pc have you...smh
@@matlockcrowl3396 who do you think is the pagani
And the Honda Civic is the Switch 😂
Played Fallout 4 for maybe a year and did not know about the ability to fly through workshop with keypad as opposed to hitting cancel all the time and finding open space. What an amazing and helpful video.
Great tips Paul, and much appreciated. Thanks you are doing awesome!!!
Thanks for the kind words Jason!
Jason Cory ,
Thank you for this video. I remember my son playing this game when it first came out. Now I am finally starting to play it and these pointers are very helpful! I may watch this one a few times as I get it all down.
*"I was suppose to win a pack of steak knives!"*
Aaron S. 😂
I don't get the play games like I used to, I've got 3 kids so I just got fallout 4 like 2 weeks ago. This tutorial is so helpful, I've been confused about so many things when it comes to settlement building. I didn't even realize that the few things I thought I understood were wrong. Thanks for the video
Really nice video, keep it up! I actually play fallout 4 a lot and didn't know most of these. I learned a lot, thanks!
Excellent!
you didn't know about the up/down arrow keys? Hmmmmm....
Just hopped on this channel to say COME BACK!!!!! PLEASE! Your vids are awesome and you’re a great teacher.
Thanks! Just posted a new video a week ago and another one coming up this Saturday =)
@@SkooledZone Your passion, positivity and enthusiasm really is something else. It was truly helpful and something to admire when I needed it all those years ago. Time flies. After the update I was showing my gf your videos. She’s inspired now too! Glad you’re back!
Hey I finally figured out the PS4 controls for moving objects without moving your character. Okay so to move object up and down PS4. Press & hold the Y button and use R3 (rt thumb stick). To move object forward and backward on PS4. Press & hold the X button and use L3 (Lt thumb stick). And to rotate object L2 & R2 (bottom trigger buttoned)
PS4 doesn't have a Y button...
Even though I know that Y=Triangle (as MANY other comments have pointed out), I still found his comment helpful.
The only one I knew was the “walk through wall” tip. All the others, I’ve been blind to for 6 years. Thank you so much, got yourself a new subscription :)
Fantastic. Welcome aboard!
I am getting back in to fallout 4 and I love your videos! I play sims but I'm not much of a builder. The mechanics are kinda similar. I love how you break everything down. There's no confusion. Thank you so much! I may not be a amateur for long. 😊
