I tend to use the Disable Command to get rid of the Skeletons in a settlement and any cars that may pass inside the build area.

Quick question, when you show the mod list in the beginning, any particular reason the second one is blurred out?

@@craigheroux5356 It's spelled wrong and was confusing people. KZfaq wouldn't let me add the note on screen. It's correct in the description though.

Markfordelete remove things

Is there a mod that acts like the disable command on xbox?

@goblo023I actually appreciate the intimacy of doing it similar to this way rather than have it instantly happen

Making a town or civilization restoration as a mission for the next fallout title would be interesting tho . I mean rather than just a base building why not goes for a town building . And like let us re-use the existing building too other than making a new one .

​@goblo023I seriously thought that was what Fallout 76 was going to be ngl.

Someone should make a game about that!

​@goblo023with businesses and manufacturing, like assigning your settlers to crops, that self generate caps because you now "own" those businesses. The corvair factory? The bottling plant? Clear them out, and make it your territory, and put it to work for you. Wasted space, wasted opportunities.

Exactly! Scrap a pile of bricks, make a brick wall. Well maybe in FO5 when it releases in 2076 lol

😀 I vote for this idea too. 👍🏾

😀 At the beginning of the story which begins 210 years after the bombs, the Commonwealth becomes the recovery zone for the Militiamen. Their plan is to recover the place, and make this place a safe and secure. A place where it is good to live in an atmosphere of peace. When our Militia character moved to General level, cleaning became a commitment. But when we finished restoring peace to the Commonwealth, I said to myself that we could beautify the place.

@@clementrodrigue Precisely!

I feel like the ebb and flow of different scrapper cartels rebuilding and demolishing the world could be used to explain how much time passed with such an odd blend of chaotic rubble and contemporaneous buildings still standing. Seeing a whole interstate overpass move from one side of the map to the other could explain why any of it is there at all

That's exactly why I like rebuilding ans fixing the buildings to make them more realistic.

Especially the fact it takes place 210 years after the Great War. Which yeah I understand for lore sake that radiation is still around but I mean in that time no one at all repaired a single building?

@@vascotank2143 Not until I came along apparently lol

@@spoonerdee and thank you for that:)

@@vascotank2143 lol You're welcome!

lol that must have been a lot of fun! I'm legit jealous!

Lol, I visited Jamaica Plains when I did my IRL fallout 4 tour. Very disappointing.

Sorry I stole your bat

I legit thought Jamaica Plains was a beach not a township 😂

@@demandred1957one of the places on my bucket list.

Yeah, it's a pet peeve of mine to see post-apocalypse settlements, where for some reason all of the builders decide to go for "distressed", as if everyone forgot how to make bricks, logs or how to paint a wall... for reasons. Or like people wouldn't be able to reinvent it in the 200 YEARS past the big boom. Whyyyyy!!

​@@rissaarei5336 I can accept the fact you can't build a nice wall, with mortar and all, because you are too occupied to survive raiders and ghouls. BUT FFS ITS RAINING RADIOACTIVE WATER THROUGH YOUR ROOF. It triggers me everytime to see all these settlements and no cover at all.

Thats when you look for mods to take care of some of that.

Indeed! I am beyond thankful to the modders who keep creating such awesome tweaks for this game!

And it is much better then the newest Game from the same Studio! 🙄😂

@@spoonerdee What was Bethesda thinking when they eliminated accomplishments from those who install mods? Why punish anyone for using unofficial mods????? If someone downloads a Magnum revolver from Nexusmods that does 9999 points of damage per shot, that is their own fault for ruining their game with a ridiculously overpowered weapon.

“The sign of a great game!” Aka a community that actually cares for it and makes it good, I assume considering vanilla is so bad

The sign of great mod makers!*

Indeed! This should have been part of the game, but I don't think Bethesda had any clue how much people would really get into building. Perhaps they will take notice for fo5. Here's to hoping.

Bethesda aren’t that interested in what people want to do, they took fallout in the direction of what will make more money; which is micro transactions for guff that no one massively cares about, for some reason. But it does make them more money. There’s no sign of there ever being a a Fallout 5. 76 is the future, and the future sucks big bouncy ball sacks - hard.

Thanks, I did not know about that dupe command. Will come in handy for sure!

Just out of curiosity, I've used that specific mod on basically all of my playthrough, never had an issue aside from deleting a road but just save often I guess. But how does it massively fuck up a game cause I've seen people say that all the time but I've never once experienced it even adding it to 300+ mod packs.

@@Shuruii Save file: "Where is that specific thing? It should be there, I know it because I always check it. I can't do this man, fuck this I won't load."

Yeah i heard that scrapt everything mod can corrupt your save game, so becareful to use it, or just use the settlement blueprint instead by other modders.

@@Shuruii I don't think it destroys/ corrupts your save but makes them very large in filesize and at some point your computer cannot handle it effectively. What most scrap everything mods do is what was said already. They broke what is called "precombines" and "previs". Many objects (clutter, roads, terrain etc), especially outside of settlements are rendered and calculated as some form and size of cells. These precombines or cells can contain many different objects made for this game but combined to read as one object so your cpu and gpu handles and renders them as one single object thus reducing load times and giving you huge boost to fps and use less memory. Most popular scrap everything mods are made quickly with no attention to precombines/ previs. When you scrap even some single bush on somewhere that is part of precombine you break that single cell into a many smaller cells or objects that so instead of one objects your computer and savefile handles there are now tens of single objects that your computer needs to render. Previs means that game renders only objects that are visible to player so when you break precombines and previsibles your computer renders every piece of scrap in that cell as a different thing, greatly affecting performance in all but high end machines. Example: Some junk pile where you clearly see skeletons and some loot and maybe few weapon stock's are visible ect. that you can't get your hand on in vanilla game and can't interact in anyway. They are just single static object there. Then you download some cheap scrap everything everywhere all at once mod and go to that pile and you see that you can scrap that skeleton, weapon ect. all separately. Moment you scrap that skeleton for few bones that mod breaks that cells precombine and previs and tells your computer that those single objects in this big pile of shit are different cells and objects thus making your computer to make more work thus lowering performance. More you do this, more they are broken and game becomes more and more taxing for your game and then comes a time when game engine, your computer or something else jsut can't handle all that information anymore and your game crashed everytime or you experience some visual bugs. There are some great scrapping mods that have been made with time and passion and does allow you a more limited but much much more performance and save friendly scrapping. Those mod makers have usually included some form of regenerative precombines/previs in their mod that combines those cells again after you have scrapped some part of them. But best mods are made so that mod maker has broken precombines in editor and changed it so that some things in that cell are scrappable ie. not part of that cell and can be scrapped safely. These mods are usually larger in size and can a bit hit your performance but not much. www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/articles/3202 This article tells all that in better way

I've never had that happen to my saves. Only problem I ever had with scrapping mods was some occlusion if a building is scrapped.

Glad you liked it! I have a video on Hangman's Alley going live tomorrow. I put a lot of hours into it, I think you'll def like it!

I make houses that appease me at least

When I rebuild the castle I use the terraformer blocks in Sim Settlements to fill in the collapsed walls with a nice mud or gravel texture, and then line them with the covenant concrete walls from Homemaker. Gives me a realistic look for a feasible rebuild, because theres no way in hell you are restoring those original granite bricks to pre-war condition. It makes more sense to me to use the materials on hand to reinforce the gaps in the wall. I even add a gate or two with guard posts.

Thanks Zebra Hater! I probably should have been a teacher, I hear that all the time lol.

Publick Occurrences office in Egret Tours Marina? That is just a building devoid of journalists and other workers that you merely unofficially built in your own name. Right? In any realistic mod Piper would be like "Why waste our resources for a direction where there is just one disturbed woman who thinks she shot her grandson and considers herself a synth? Even further away there is a single father with his children. And there is no way am I gonna do business with Children of Atom nutcases living in Glowing Sea because my couriers and postmen did not sign up for suicide missions!"

@@Cybernaut76 Not sure I understand your rant. Egret Tours Marina makes a great settlement. The crazy old woman is supposed to leave after you talk some sense into her, but she doesn't. After you move settlers in, she becomes mostly a non-entity.

@@srellison561 glad I'm not the only one to fail to see the point of that "rant"...

@@srellison561 Excuse me? Why are you guys accusing me of ranting? That is not what I intended to do. I was just saying what mods may contain if their makers are realists based on how could we very likely expect Piper to react if it was real. Thank you for saying how will things go actually. I did not know what kind of mods there were used.

Thanks! I'll be doing more tutorials similar to this in the future. Despite how old the game is, there are still tons of people who ask for help with building for the first time.

Welcome and thanks for the kind words. Plenty more tutorials coming as well as some "build along" videos planned in the future.

You're welcome, I spent countless hours building in vanilla and it was beyond frustrating! Having used mods, I can never go back lol

You are most welcome!

Thanks for the information. I've done what you mentioned with the wall not snapping, but I also wanted to show how place everywhere can be super helpful with difficult pieces. I honestly just learned the console "disable" command after making this video lol wish I'd know before. Thanks again for the insight!

Very good points! In this case I wanted to also show off Place Everywheres ability to turn snapping off. Thanks though, others will see this and get some help, much appreciated!

Thanks!

Beyond annoying when you build a nicely roofed.... anything and it just goes right through lol

For sure it can be. But I'm touched in the head and enjoy it. In the end though it is satisfying, especially when I "win" and make it work lol

Thanks!

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you'll get to soon.

That means more to me than you can ever imagine! 🫠

I get that a lot lol

Thanks! I discovered this just after making this video lol. BUT this will help others in the future so again thanks!

I use the enable/disable to clear trash and other junk so I don't delete the wrong items/structures. The number of times I have done that and had not saved if a while was very frustrating.

@@CeirrentheAssassin Yeah I've accidently deleted stuff all the time like roads and or whole buildings lol. I've since learned to go slower and be more careful and save OFTEN!

After using the disable command, the object is still there, just not visible. To complete the removal, type (without the quotes, before you select another object) "markfordelete" (no spaces), and the next time you leave the area, it will actually be deleted and no longer count against your settlement's build limit. (*Very* handy in Bunker Hill.)

Because it messes up the scripts

True. This game is so funn that the only thing i would like is to be able to clean/repair the existing buildings/houses around settlements, or simply to be able to transform them all into materials, to be able to clean the areas of the settlements (from garbage, rubble, dirt, bushes, etc...) and to be able to build according to our willing without the need of mods!

Indeed. If it weren't for mods I wouldn't build as often as I do.

It will work for some of the castle but to get rid of the huge rubble piles, it will remove large sections of the castle itself too. The other option is to use a mod that removes the rubble so you can build using a clean pallet.

@@spoonerdee Any recommendations for a specific mod?

@@d3iviz600 Probaby something like Castle Walls Repaired. I think that gets rid of everything and fixes the walls so its a total clean slate. There's others too that modify things a little or a lot, so that's up to you and how much you want to do yourself.

@@spoonerdee Thanks

Thanks. I just started a series for Taffington Boathouse. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a86EZttesq_Fg2w.htmlsi=I8mQa_ju7BB4FuI4

Thanks, super happy to help!

It's safer to use the "disable" command, since it only turns things invisible instead of outright deleting them. Sometimes those chairs can be integrated weirdly and deleting them crashes your game.

Save,markfordelete,quiksave.Then load quiksave.Marked is gone

...which only works if it has a own ID from a specific Libary. If not aka be "enviromental", it does not work. Then, you need the Mod to be able to acess the said Libarys IDs as well to do so because the Game doies not recognize it as "valid" aka "beeing an Object rather than an enviromental Piece". Cells can overlap in this Game - and thus it can be an Item from another Cell preventing you from acessing it without Mods. And thoose Items - thoose are the ones the "fuck up your Save" when deleted as the Game reads that as "corrupted File" instead of this beeing done intentionally.

@@Rabijeel You need just click on item and you have id

Thanks!

lol funny enough, that's usually what I do, but for some reason my mind went blank

Free use song that's everywhere now lol. That's part of why I swapped it in later videos.

True, but not everyone can use the creation kit. I try to keep things open to most users. Thanks though, might be helpful to some. :-)

You can make a whole different map at that point

Thanks for watching!

Thank you.

@@spoonerdee ofc

Thanks

No problem at all

You're welcome!

Prior to upgrading, I was on a 10 year old i7 (about equal to today's i3) and a gtx 1060 6gb and ran the game smooth with mods and such. At 1080 ultra too.

Snappy Housekit and yes it is!

Not wasted, I've covered holes in walls and roofs with patchwork before to make it look, well patchwork lol. In the real world, Sometimes you might only be able to find a couple pieces of sheet metal or wood.🫠

@@spoonerdee true, it has more apocalyptic aesthetics too. But the gymnastics I have to go throught to put them juuuuuust right really chews up my free time sometimes

@@cataclysm7256 lol tell me about. Not just that, but regular pieces that snap everywhere except where you want them... countless hours!

Have fun!

Unfortunately, Sony has the game locked down, not Bethesda. The update won't change this. 😟

Thank you! Merry new year!

Use Workshop Framework instead of Scrap Everything
