This looks promising. I love the logs stacked "randomly" forming a border of the settlement at the start of the video. I don't think I have ever seen a log "fence" done quite like that in any other Fo4 video...🤔 Also I adore the water tower and ruined corner of a building that, at least in this version of reality, stood beside the tracks pre-the Great War. It's a shame that more of the railway stations don't have more buildings/ruins beside them like this one. Nice touch. And the ambience that you have created with that soft orangey lighting makes for a warm inviting looking place... Well it would, if it weren't for that sinister looking mist pooling at the low point of the settlement (at least on that side of the tracks). Also I am curious to see what you do with the rest of those buildings west of the tracks down towards the water. Now that I have a mod or two that expand on the area around settlements that I can build in, I am interested to see what you do to see if it sparks any ideas for me. Overall a really nice looking base for your creative genius to go wild in when it comes to decorating. Great work my friend! 👌
I appreciate that, thank you! My usual here is a big fort with a high concrete wall surrounding the place so this is a departure for me. I started to put up some high walls on the S. side and was immediately like, nope! lol. That log wall was a whim. I couldn't find anything that was working over there, saw some logs and wondered if I could make a log fence. It worked and looks like something the npc's would do so there you go. In my head-lore for the site it's along a major travel/caravan route so the settlers are mainly traders backed by the farm, independent of any faction support. So a make-place settlement with reasonable defenses. The number of settlers yet to be determined, lol. I had to tone down that mist in the back, was way to prominent on review and made it more a low-hanging ground mist. That light is a big reason I like those Rust Devil looking torches, a brighter glow than the vanilla street oil lamps and with more body to it than the usual stark white lights. More natural. I agree with you on the rail stations, especially with this one. Even knowing what it looks like I still expect to see more when I go there. So I'm building on that thought a little bit, giving more of a foundation, as it were, for an expanded settlement on the other side of the tracks, lol. Still not sure about it though since that area is a big enemy spawn point. And yeah, I have an expanded settlements mod. I find that even if I don't use all the extra area, having it available really does a lot for sparking the imagination with new possibilities. In all, for this, I wanted to show the bones of the place before I put the skin on it, to show what I built to start with. Now it's a matter of figuring out everyone's lives and how they're living them. Easy, lol. Thanks again, we'll see where it goes...
Wow, I notice the graphics upgrade! Love the log fence. Did you expand the settlement limits? 5:29 I’ll just hop across the tracks for a bath! That Brahmin feed trough has a great view. Love it, but as it’s outside of the fence, I’ll need armed guards! JK!!! Someone can keep watch from the pie shaped lookout. Can’t wait to see it decorated…plenty of shelves for cereal! 8:03 I finally noticed you turned off your HUD for this video! Loved it all, great work my friend!💕
Thanks for checkin' it out! It's more the upgrade to performance that let's me run it at a higher graphics setting. That log fence, at first I was thinking about stacking up some cars there, but then with all the dead tree's around I was like, oh, log fence, duh! Turned out half-azzed looking enough to look like the settler's could do it, lol. And yeah, I have a mod that expands the build size of the settlements. Here, it's expanded from East to West. So the North/South boundaries are the same but I can now build out to the water on that West side. Unfortunately that's area is an active enemy spawn point so I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that..., . The feed trough, well that whole spot is for the Caravan traders so I figure it's up to them to take care of their own, though they do have turret protection from the main settlement so they're fine, lol. I think that pie shaped building is going to be a med vendor. All those front caged counters are going to be vendors. From the pie building down, Meds, weapons/armor, then further down, food/bar/ maybe some general goods. Sitting on a main travel route it's the perfect place for a strip mall setup, lol. And the HUD, lol, I wondered if you'ld notice. I've got it set up on a hotkey now so I don't have to go into console command everytime to turn it on and off. Much easier to play around with. And hey, thinking about the West side of the tracks just now popped an idea that could work..., thanks for that, and for commenting, I really appreciate the input!
@@OctumLXV can’t wait for the strip mall! Aptly named for the dual purpose bathing area! Until you put in another bathtub we’re roughing it with the Brahmin! lol💕
That looks interesting) Many people liked this log fence, so am i! Just a brilliant idea. I guess i would try this at some point at echo lumber in far harbor🤔 And ofcorse i'm waiting for what will you do with other side of the settlement where foundations are😎
Hey there, and thanks! The logs, yeah, I didn't want to do the same fencing around the whole place and there were logs around so I gave it a shot, turned out pretty good. Thought about it before when doing MM, colonial style forts but never got around to trying it. Since this update I should try going to FH. That DLC has always been a glitchy mess for me on the PC version to the point where I just stopped going there. As for the other side of the tracks, I have an idea but I don't know if I want to do it. That area is a main enemy spawn point so anything I put there is going to have that spawning into the build..., so yeah, not sure...,
Hey there, thanks for that! That mod is called: Woody's Wasteland Stuff. On Nexus. Has a lot of of cool wasteland, scrappy looking items to use for home building.

@@OctumLXV I couldn't agree more. Having the extra space to build and not using it is better than not having the space and needing it, as they say. 😉
