I love how when something annoying happens like "oh damn no fiber optics" you laugh. It's so refreshing and probably how you have been able to become such a great fallout settlement builder and teacher! You're so full of joy for Fallout. 😊
Video length has never been a factor for me as long as the content is good and helpful. Thanks for the video and for sharing your thoughts, ideas and experience with us.
I'm sure you're LONG past looking at the comments section but I still want to say Thank You ! These tips are still relevant today (2022) and so helpful to even veteran players. I often run your videos in the background as I build my game in MO2 and decide which settlement mods to include in my latest game. (Yes, I'm one of those sacrilegious fools who dabble in mods) but even with Place Anywhere high in my load order, the creativity and ingenuity your builds inspire make my game so much more fun. I often start with a Transfer Settlements build (from one of the many ultra-talented modders on the Nexus) and after a few days in-game I add my own touches using what I've learned in your videos... these towers are going to be surrounding my next Tenpines build for sure. 😃
If anyone is watching this without any DLC, you can use the Small Shack Floors in place of the Hay Bales to give those turrets a boost. I did this today by using the pillar glitch to fit them in.
You really should build a Skool Bus somewhere ;-) I think the buildable buses came with the Wasteland Workshop DLC. I often use them as player housing, with a bit of decorations.
You’re probably the best video instructor on RUclips, for ANY topic. Really understand how to break things down to teach, then have a great voice and mic technique for conveying it. It’s a pleasure to learn from you. But….. sadly… on my Xbox console for some reason, even following your instructions exactly things just don’t work.
Hay Bales! Just the thing i need for my defense towers, bugged the hell out of me i couldn't put a raised turret in the middle of the 4 in the corners. Not into big/realistic builds, but tips like this is why i watch these videos. Keep up the good work!
A trick I use to get turrets shooting above the railings is by using the short wooden steps. A small floor tile will snap to the top of them & make a nice platform. I just put it together on the ground, group select, then place it before adding a turret. Pushing the edge of the floor against the rail to "support" it, of course. Plus you have the option of using 1 set of steps opposite of the railing, or a set on both sides. If you have limited room, you can always just remove the stairs all together to give it a shelf like look, or use a pillar in stead. I do use mods, but I love your videos no matter the length, & I use your tricks all the time. Hopefully my little tip will help you, & your subscribers. If I think of any more, I'll be sure to let you know. Keep up the great work! Thanks, Teach!! [DJ Thorn]
I'm just so glad there's is an active fo4 RUclipsr. Bestatnothing has some good funny stuff but I want stuff like this that actually helps you in the game, thanks for the great work
I’ve been playing Fallout 4 from the first day it came out , but I still learn something new from you every time ! Keep it up brother , love you man !!!
This video taught me several things. - How to make better looking settlements - THAT YOU CAN GROUP SELECT, WHICH I WISH I KNEW A LONG TIME AGO - HOW to group select / how it works. - How to make good looking gun towers (I personally do it based on faction. Wasteland-ish ones are just scaffolding and MG turrets) I'm also glad I'm not the only person who knows of and uses the wiring glitch.
That bus idea you mentioned, by placing them along the tracks, to make the settlement look like a unique raider encampment seems like a cool idea. I'd love to see that come to fruition. Keep doing what your doing, and I hope you eventually reach your goal of doing RUclips full time bc you definitely deserve it, you put allot of thought and effort into every one of your videos which shows that you enjoy it as well, anyways keep up the good work and love the videos, keep em coming.
I must take back what I said now. I told you i don't watch your videos. But I do now, you have a soothing voice! And you are quite the nice humble chap. Credit where credits due
Totally loved this video. I was mine making own gun tower then I couldn’t use the hay bales.........have Not unlocked them yet........thanks for keeping these videos on your channel.......later.
For the Raider style, when trying to get the pieces together around 19:34, there is this gentleman named Jug who shows a stacking concept in his Fallout 4 Sanctuary Settlement Building Tips video. Basically you stack small wooden blocks over and over into a 3 by 1 segment and it allows you to determine where boards can go with an easier time. Just thought to share it. That way there's no "estimating".
I also still love this game. After a rest restarted the game with a new character, now on survival mode. I dont wont to use any mods so your channel is a welcome find. Very cool you are still sharing videos.
Not really interested in Raider Style, but I’ve been enjoying your videos too much to not watch. Can’t skip a certain topic at Skool even if you don’t like it. Stay in Skool, kids!
Awesome stuff, as usual! I reckon an occasional longer vid like this won't hurt once in a while, but the shorter lessons are more easily memorable for emulating.
Oh, I love how you used the power pole for a support beam, I used them in a build over at the lighthouse that I did. It just seemed so appropriate for something they would really use. I used them for partial support of the rooms I built off of the side of the building. Your choice of the angled raider poles was also quite nice. I run into 'ghosts' using items all over the place, the weight bench from the vault tec DLC is another bad one.
Awesome, as usual. I'd never thought of gun towers before, I usually just stick those pieces of wood thingys on the wall and put turrets on them (I'm soooo imaginative lol).
I don't usually bother sinking the power fixtures into the ground, because I think it makes them more difficult to handle if I want to rewire something. I usually put them in a corner somewhere and rug glitch something on top, such as a barrel or crate. Your technique is really useful, I just never have the patience to be this thorough :-D
Also, speaking of turrets, I don't remember if you have already shown how to push settlers and brahmin out of the way by grabbing a turret in build mode and using its collision to move people. Can be very useful when somebody decides to take a break right where you want to build ;-)
Skooled Zone I actually don't know. I have only tested it with turrets, mostly because I usually have at least one available when I need to push someone around. I can't think of what else would have the same effect, and I haven't had the patience to test it.
So while currently IN build mode with a turret selected, you can push people and Brahmin out of the way? Without placing the turret near them so they move? You just select a turret and walk up to someone in your way and they will be pushed aside by the turret that you are currently holding? I have to try that.. I got so fed up with Brahmin in my way that I downloaded that push anyone mod, it lets you push people and animals in your way without angering, hurting or provoking them, but the turret way would be useful as well.
Esoteric Jay Yes, that is exactly how it works. Again, I have no idea why that works with turrets and not, say, chairs or something. Also, you may want to look at the "Dogs not Brahmin" mod. It replaces all provisioner and wandering trader brahmin with guard dogs, but not the farm / settlement brahmin. Very convenient.
Patrik Hjorth I've got the mod that changes the provisioners and traders pack Brahmin into eyebots(it's a better mod than the dog one in my opinion bc they are floating and never get in your way like animals on the ground).. but the normal Brahmin at settlements stay as Brahmin.
Always learn something new when watching your videos. Good Job. Also I prefer shorter videos 10 mins or so but if I like the video I will watch the entire video. Happy Thanksgiving!!
oh man, I just thought of something when you removed the bottom support. If you leave the non-electric turrets, you could add like 5 ceiling fans to the bottom of the tower to make it look like a giant turretcopter!
You don't necessarily need the nuka dlc. If you use a carpet and put it on top of a wooden crate (with a pillar) you get basically the same result. Or just lift the turret up and let it hover... if you don't mind magic. ;) and btw, you just gave me tree house idea...
Hi there, only just started playing fallout 4 and only recently discovered this series witch is awesome btw, just wondering if you could create an absolute beginners guide on starting up in sanctuary w/a new character & with some of your fav tips n tricks to help me & other ppl who are completely noob to settlements. Loving the series so far n looking forward to future videos
I hear ya. It's funny because when I was back on the green circle lessons (beginner videos) people were clamoring for the more advanced stuff. But I didn't skip ahead too fast. I did create a several good beginner's guides in the No Mods Shop Class, like this one: ruclips.net/video/sDza5oblD1g/видео.html
I’d love to see the finished product for this settlement. You have so many videos. If you have a walkthrough video it would be great to get a link to that.
You could also use the "Brige" pieces in the Wood->Misc. section for the support. Also why not snapping the "Sidewalls" first and then group-select and put them on the floor?
I built a cool, wasteland themed tower, I'ma make a video on it soon, it's stairs and prefabs, but instead of walls, I use rails. First place a wall and place the roofing over, but then the when I remove the wall for the rails the roof is still floating. That's where the rug glitch comes in, to make raider spike poles at the supports fr the roof, and a little housing inside! It's really a middle of wasteland place to see it, and a house but at the same time, a hunting tower. :)
I mean it looks like something that's far away from a settlement and in the middle of the woods, or wasteland, not in or close to the city, or in a settlement. Why a hunting tower/house when there's a huge settlement right next to you, so Ima use a mod to place it in the middle of nowhere. Can you maybe do a video on how to make it, and customize your own version? If you like it, when I make the video. Thanks Paul, your name just reminded me of Paul Walker, RIP.
CraZyJUNK8000 Oh the weight benches are always haunted for me. And I have like 7 of then so sometimes they’re all just moving by themselves like wtf? I like standing on the weights while settlers lift. Damn they are fucking strong! Even keep talking about how they don’t like Goodneighbor lol.
Fantastic and creative as well. Can’t speak for others but I have a lot of fun watching these videos and learning techniques. Could you not just use a conduit at the bottom of the first tower or will it not sit on the ground? At one point it looked like your base has solid walls which would hide a generator or could sink a generator if needed. My water pump at Oberland Station has that ghost pumper as well. Only 1 of the 4 pumps though. The only problem with longer videos is trying to remember everything but with screen shots and replaying the video that’s no big deal.
My taffington boat house is where i get all my water... i think its 10 big purifiers and 10 medium sized ones... it produces 500 water and is is surround by rocket turrets and its still not enough to defend it
I'm beginning to think RUclips is pychic since last night I started a junk fence around coastal cottage and I needed a gun tower in keeping and now this pops up in my recommeded list 😶
Looks super nice but have you considered the use of a power armor jetpack to get up there without the need of scaffolding. You also don't take fall damage. Buildinf in power armor in general is pretty helpful.
I hear ya. A lot players use Power Armor for building. I happen to play an epic stealth character, so I don't use Power Armor. But you still need something to land on anyway. So I'd probably still use the scaffolding. As for fall damage, I usually have these on when I'm building up high: ruclips.net/video/akYhSCYXRqI/видео.html
Know I'm late to the game but just started Fallout 4 and really appreciate the lessons! Just wondering if you could sink the group of totem supports close to the ground to make it easier to place the shack part on top? Then the entire structure could be group selected to raise it to its max height. Would that work?
Better late than never, right? ;-) Anyway I discovered during this process that there seems to be an underground height limit just like there's an above ground height limit. So I wasn't able to sink those totems down very far. But give it a try yourself and maybe it was just that particular space that was the problem.
This is a bit late from when you done this but could you not use a concrete base to hide the wire and to make it more of a solid column? I only ask as I'm still new to the building part.
scree skrē/Submit noun a mass of small loose stones that form or cover a slope on a mountain. a slope covered with small loose stones. plural noun: screes
Indeed. I mentioned at the end of the video that I discovered you can adjust the poles after the fact. So as long as the shack isn't too high or too low then you could do it in reverse.
The water pump glitch is caused when you companion is using the water pump as you fast travel away. The way to fix it is to use it your self and when you are done, the glitch is fixed.
@@SkooledZone I was using the small stair and wood floor inside a guard post from another video but you sparked me into thinking of that. Stay thought provoking man I love your videos
Hey :) Those totems are not Raider, they are SuperMutant :) So I loaded a video up on my channel where I built a Heli-Turret at RedRocket. The fans keep synchronizing after a while. It always looks like there is only one fan rotating. Question: Do You know a workaround (or if You take a look at that video, what did I do wrong)?
You're right, they're technically super-mutant totems, but they fit nicely into the whole grisly raider theme. ;) As for your fan rotation question, I haven't run into that problem. The one you see briefly at 9:04 was built like six months ago and hasn't desynchronized. But it's still an easy fix. Just select one fan and release it until they're spread apart again. :)
Hey there Skooled Zone , I've been playing Fallout 4 and I ran into a bit of a mess trying to use the electrical conduits to wire up a house . What I'm trying to do is to put 2 switches in the same area to control 2 different items independently from each other ( like a ceiling light and then a low powered wall light ) , thing is I don't even know if that's possible . I was wondering if you might have any tips for this ? Thanks
Yup, it's possible. Just think of the switches as gateways. The electricity has to pass through the "gateway" before continuing on to the light. That way when you shut the gate, the light turns off. Hope that helps.
Ya I would have understood that , but while I was waiting for your reply I did a little experimenting with the mess I already had and figured that out myself lol . Thanks anyway for the reply tho . Lol I had circles of conduits and things criss-crossing inside of circles and other stuff running in other directions outside the circles . What a mess I made for myself to clean up !
I don't think it makes a difference. The wifi glitch will work wherever you want to use it. ;-) Even up in the air: ruclips.net/video/O_eEipBr8as/видео.html
I love how when something annoying happens like "oh damn no fiber optics" you laugh. It's so refreshing and probably how you have been able to become such a great fallout settlement builder and teacher! You're so full of joy for Fallout. 😊
Video length has never been a factor for me as long as the content is good and helpful. Thanks for the video and for sharing your thoughts, ideas and experience with us.
Your videos are so under-rated man!
So kind of you to say Sarah 😊
I can't believe more people don't watch the skooled zone. I love the videos and they are nice because I'm not a mod guy. Keep up the good work man :)
I'm sure you're LONG past looking at the comments section but I still want to say Thank You ! These tips are still relevant today (2022) and so helpful to even veteran players.

Thanks Michael. I do still check the comments, but not as frequently as you can tell. ;-)
Glad you're still doing fallout 4 videos, still 2 almost 3 years after it came out! :D
It's just barely 2 years old. It came out this month in 2015.
I am glad too. I just started playing earlier this year.
I stil playing it did different factions and now playing survival mode.
Benny Vermeulen there are tons of really great non settlement places to “live” for survival mode. :)
If anyone is watching this without any DLC, you can use the Small Shack Floors in place of the Hay Bales to give those turrets a boost. I did this today by using the pillar glitch to fit them in.
You really should build a Skool Bus somewhere ;-)

Absolutely love how enthusiastic & happy you sound in your videos, I'm obviously a bit late finding your channel, but I definitely enjoy the videos!
You're never late to this school. 😄

Wow! that looks really cool for how simple it is!
I'm just so glad there's is an active fo4 RUclipsr. Bestatnothing has some good funny stuff but I want stuff like this that actually helps you in the game, thanks for the great work
I’ve been playing Fallout 4 from the first day it came out , but I still learn something new from you every time ! Keep it up brother , love you man !!!
That's awesome Jeff. Really appreciate the comment!
2021 and im here still learning new things in fallout 4
I literally just started playing FO4 about two months ago, and I'm thoroughly enjoying this channel!
I just love your video’s, I learned a lot more the last few weeks. Thank you!
This video taught me several things.
- How to make better looking settlements
- THAT YOU CAN GROUP SELECT, WHICH I WISH I KNEW A LONG TIME AGO
- HOW to group select / how it works.
- How to make good looking gun towers (I personally do it based on faction. Wasteland-ish ones are just scaffolding and MG turrets)
I'm also glad I'm not the only person who knows of and uses the wiring glitch.
Awesome! Some of those lessons are taught in earlier tutorials like group selecting and stuff: SkooledZone.com/nomods
That bus idea you mentioned, by placing them along the tracks, to make the settlement look like a unique raider encampment seems like a cool idea. I'd love to see that come to fruition.

Really appreciate it Jay!
Bravo!! Just brilliant. Would never have thought of this. And the hay bales are going to be perfect for some other turret placements I have.
I must take back what I said now. I told you i don't watch your videos. But I do now, you have a soothing voice! And you are quite the nice humble chap.
Credit where credits due
Right on Martin. I appreciate you saying that.
Very nice. Never thought of using the hay bales.
Yes I've been waiting for raider style builds.
Totally loved this video. I was mine making own gun tower then I couldn’t use the hay bales.........have Not unlocked them yet........thanks for keeping these videos on your channel.......later.
Awesome build idea! To answer your question at the end of the video, I like the shorter topics you've put out
I enjoy your videos and I think it's funny when someone walks by when your making your video.
You're very underrated. Thank you for your Fallout 4 videos.
Your building has inspired me so much in settlement building, thanks for all these videos!
You're welcome, Jack. Thanks for watchin'em!
For the Raider style, when trying to get the pieces together around 19:34, there is this gentleman named Jug who shows a stacking concept in his Fallout 4 Sanctuary Settlement Building Tips video. Basically you stack small wooden blocks over and over into a 3 by 1 segment and it allows you to determine where boards can go with an easier time. Just thought to share it.

I also still love this game. After a rest restarted the game with a new character, now on survival mode.
I dont wont to use any mods so your channel is a welcome find.
Very cool you are still sharing videos.
Rockin 🤘
Cool information nice video man
Great video. I'll be using the raider tower tip to build my npc guard towers for my military base build.
Thank you for keeping f4 alive! and love your vids.
You bet, and thanks man.
Another great video Paul !
I like the longer video's like this one.
Hey thanks man. Yeah, the vote seems to be split on the length so I'll just keeping mixing it up.
Sweet I'm gonna use this
👌
Wow! Raider style tower is also a great shack idea!
Definitely!
Not really interested in Raider Style, but I’ve been enjoying your videos too much to not watch. Can’t skip a certain topic at Skool even if you don’t like it. Stay in Skool, kids!
That's awesome. Yeah, I had a lot of requests for this so I try to vary the styles so everyone gets what they want. :)
Awesome stuff, as usual! I reckon an occasional longer vid like this won't hurt once in a while, but the shorter lessons are more easily memorable for emulating.
I am addicted to your channel, these videos are amazing

Awesome, as usual. I'd never thought of gun towers before, I usually just stick those pieces of wood thingys on the wall and put turrets on them (I'm soooo imaginative lol).
Feeling a little down... don't know why... BUT your chuckle and up-beat attitude has been nice, man... Thanks for your stuff.
😁
I don't usually bother sinking the power fixtures into the ground, because I think it makes them more difficult to handle if I want to rewire something. I usually put them in a corner somewhere and rug glitch something on top, such as a barrel or crate.
Your technique is really useful, I just never have the patience to be this thorough :-D
Love your laugh man
Has Wienk IKR!
Thank you , Paul .
🐺
Turkey sandwiches, some family, and skooled zone, there's a lot to be thankful for this thanksgiving
Haha, right on. Hope you had a nice thanksgiving!
This video was super useful. Thanks so much.
Vert awesome looking raiders gun tower. You keep making amazing videos and keeping people interested in on for the great games
Nice good job once again!!
😊
Also, speaking of turrets, I don't remember if you have already shown how to push settlers and brahmin out of the way by grabbing a turret in build mode and using its collision to move people. Can be very useful when somebody decides to take a break right where you want to build ;-)
Been meaning to ask you about this. Does it only work with turrets?
Skooled Zone I actually don't know. I have only tested it with turrets, mostly because I usually have at least one available when I need to push someone around. I can't think of what else would have the same effect, and I haven't had the patience to test it.

I have a frustrating personality but I also have a drive to achieve and a hate of failure so I always come back to try again.
Love It! Cool ideas!
I love your videos no matter what length ,
Well thanks man 😁
Haven't even got past ad and it looks amazing
This one helps me a lot since I don't have the DLC
Always learn something new when watching your videos. Good Job.
Also I prefer shorter videos 10 mins or so but if I like the video I will watch the entire video.
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Awesome man, thanks for letting me know.
Before I watched this, i was bored af, but now...now I will be a god in fallout 4!
Good video man! This was very useful to me
👍
Cool video nice information...
Crazy how the Wi-Fi glitch nullified the first 15 minutes of this video! Made it so much easier.
I know, right?
oh man, I just thought of something when you removed the bottom support. If you leave the non-electric turrets, you could add like 5 ceiling fans to the bottom of the tower to make it look like a giant turretcopter!
I love you man :D
You don't necessarily need the nuka dlc. If you use a carpet and put it on top of a wooden crate (with a pillar) you get basically the same result. Or just lift the turret up and let it hover... if you don't mind magic. ;)
and btw, you just gave me tree house idea...
Yup, you got it. I mentioned in the video that you could do a lot of the stuff with the pillar glitch but it's just easier when they pop into place.
Hi there, only just started playing fallout 4 and only recently discovered this series witch is awesome btw, just wondering if you could create an absolute beginners guide on starting up in sanctuary w/a new character & with some of your fav tips n tricks to help me & other ppl who are completely noob to settlements.
Loving the series so far n looking forward to future videos
I hear ya. It's funny because when I was back on the green circle lessons (beginner videos) people were clamoring for the more advanced stuff. But I didn't skip ahead too fast. I did create a several good beginner's guides in the No Mods Shop Class, like this one: ruclips.net/video/sDza5oblD1g/видео.html
I have these glitches to. Even the benchpress from vault tec is going on its own sometimes.
I’d love to see the finished product for this settlement. You have so many videos. If you have a walkthrough video it would be great to get a link to that.
You could also use the "Brige" pieces in the Wood->Misc. section for the support. Also why not snapping the "Sidewalls" first and then group-select and put them on the floor?
Love it paul
I built a cool, wasteland themed tower, I'ma make a video on it soon, it's stairs and prefabs, but instead of walls, I use rails. First place a wall and place the roofing over, but then the when I remove the wall for the rails the roof is still floating. That's where the rug glitch comes in, to make raider spike poles at the supports fr the roof, and a little housing inside!
It's really a middle of wasteland place to see it, and a house but at the same time, a hunting tower. :)
I mean it looks like something that's far away from a settlement and in the middle of the woods, or wasteland, not in or close to the city, or in a settlement. Why a hunting tower/house when there's a huge settlement right next to you, so Ima use a mod to place it in the middle of nowhere. Can you maybe do a video on how to make it, and customize your own version? If you like it, when I make the video. Thanks Paul, your name just reminded me of Paul Walker, RIP.
I have ghost using my pump and weight bench as well spoopy
CraZyJUNK8000 Oh the weight benches are always haunted for me. And I have like 7 of then so sometimes they’re all just moving by themselves like wtf? I like standing on the weights while settlers lift. Damn they are fucking strong! Even keep talking about how they don’t like Goodneighbor lol.
Fantastic and creative as well.
Can’t speak for others but I have a lot of fun watching these videos and learning techniques.
Could you not just use a conduit at the bottom of the first tower or will it not sit on the ground? At one point it looked like your base has solid walls which would hide a generator or could sink a generator if needed.
My water pump at Oberland Station has that ghost pumper as well. Only 1 of the 4 pumps though.
The only problem with longer videos is trying to remember everything but with screen shots and replaying the video that’s no big deal.
Thanks Learoy. Yeah, you could use a regular conduit on the ground but, because of the slope, it would've looked like it was floating. :)
My weapons work bench has the same glichy problem as your water pump. It's kind of creepy, but I can live with it.👻
My taffington boat house is where i get all my water... i think its 10 big purifiers and 10 medium sized ones... it produces 500 water and is is surround by rocket turrets and its still not enough to defend it
Just happened to notice MacCready using the pump as I fast-travelled away from Red Rocket. When I got back it was still pumping merrily on its own.
I think short videos for the weekdays and longer videos for the weekend will be great
You are friggin amazing 😉✨
I'm beginning to think RUclips is pychic since last night I started a junk fence around coastal cottage and I needed a gun tower in keeping and now this pops up in my recommeded list 😶
During Christmas season could you do something festive to celebrate “The most wonderful time of the year.” That is if you want to
I like celebrating holidays on the channel. So if I can find the time, I might just do something like that!
Ha Ha! I've got the ghost pump in Oberland station as well. It triggers me a bit but I left it too.
🤪
Looks super nice but have you considered the use of a power armor jetpack to get up there without the need of scaffolding. You also don't take fall damage. Buildinf in power armor in general is pretty helpful.
I hear ya. A lot players use Power Armor for building. I happen to play an epic stealth character, so I don't use Power Armor. But you still need something to land on anyway. So I'd probably still use the scaffolding. As for fall damage, I usually have these on when I'm building up high: ruclips.net/video/akYhSCYXRqI/видео.html
Skooled Zone cool, cool but its still worth it to use power armor just while building. Thanks.
Know I'm late to the game but just started Fallout 4 and really appreciate the lessons! Just wondering if you could sink the group of totem supports close to the ground to make it easier to place the shack part on top? Then the entire structure could be group selected to raise it to its max height. Would that work?
Better late than never, right? ;-) Anyway I discovered during this process that there seems to be an underground height limit just like there's an above ground height limit. So I wasn't able to sink those totems down very far. But give it a try yourself and maybe it was just that particular space that was the problem.
This is a bit late from when you done this but could you not use a concrete base to hide the wire and to make it more of a solid column? I only ask as I'm still new to the building part.
Actually, here's an even better way to hide the wire: ruclips.net/video/YdaR7m4gct4/видео.html
Sad...
I hate to see such a good channel die.. ;-(
Why do you think the channel is dying? I'm gaining subs faster than I ever have before!
scree
skrē/Submit
noun
a mass of small loose stones that form or cover a slope on a mountain.
a slope covered with small loose stones.
plural noun: screes
Why not connect them first and then put them on together? Would that work?
Just wondering. Wouldnt the raider tower be easier done if you got the box at the required height then beam glitches the blood poles into place
Indeed. I mentioned at the end of the video that I discovered you can adjust the poles after the fact. So as long as the shack isn't too high or too low then you could do it in reverse.
Gotch ya.
I misinterpreted it as adjustment only.
My apologises.
Awesome
The water pump glitch is caused when you companion is using the water pump as you fast travel away. The way to fix it is to use it your self and when you are done, the glitch is fixed.
You are so right. I might leave it though because it's kinda funny. 🤪
@@SkooledZone good call it is hilarious
Watching you make things so organized is almost sexual in nature 20:23 ,Boss.
You should try doing an all vanilla build some time, if you haven't already.
Have you tried a stack of rubber Matt's for MG highchairs
Rubber mats work as well. But the haybale seemed like the perfect height at the time. ;-)
@@SkooledZone I was using the small stair and wood floor inside a guard post from another video but you sparked me into thinking of that.
Stay thought provoking man I love your videos
I love these videos I need more!!!!!!!
I have the water pump glitch at Oberland Station also.
Haha, cool. I'm not the only one. LOL.
Hey :) Those totems are not Raider, they are SuperMutant :)
So I loaded a video up on my channel where I built a Heli-Turret at RedRocket. The fans keep synchronizing after a while.
It always looks like there is only one fan rotating.
Question: Do You know a workaround (or if You take a look at that video, what did I do wrong)?
You're right, they're technically super-mutant totems, but they fit nicely into the whole grisly raider theme. ;) As for your fan rotation question, I haven't run into that problem. The one you see briefly at 9:04 was built like six months ago and hasn't desynchronized. But it's still an easy fix. Just select one fan and release it until they're spread apart again. :)
Thank You for answering. But nahh... I took them down - My Abby is not THAT sophisticated :D Keep on rockin´ dear Skooled.
So how does group selecting the roof works?
I cover a lot of that in this deep dive video: ruclips.net/video/M9OQAseCIcg/видео.html
Hey there Skooled Zone , I've been playing Fallout 4 and I ran into a bit of a mess trying to use the electrical conduits to wire up a house . What I'm trying to do is to put 2 switches in the same area to control 2 different items independently from each other ( like a ceiling light and then a low powered wall light ) , thing is I don't even know if that's possible . I was wondering if you might have any tips for this ? Thanks
Yup, it's possible. Just think of the switches as gateways. The electricity has to pass through the "gateway" before continuing on to the light. That way when you shut the gate, the light turns off. Hope that helps.
Ya I would have understood that , but while I was waiting for your reply I did a little experimenting with the mess I already had and figured that out myself lol . Thanks anyway for the reply tho . Lol I had circles of conduits and things criss-crossing inside of circles and other stuff running in other directions outside the circles . What a mess I made for myself to clean up !
Haha, I know what you mean. That's why I started doing this: ruclips.net/video/3TIo77uMUxc/видео.html
I ran in to it with the weight bench
I have encountered that ghost well but i thought it was part of sim settlements mod
Would the wifi glitch work better with the vault tower?
I don't think it makes a difference. The wifi glitch will work wherever you want to use it. ;-) Even up in the air: ruclips.net/video/O_eEipBr8as/видео.html
