I will definitely give these a shot! Got a couple of request builds to take care of but I may bump that Arrastra up the list!

No worries at all dude! I have the full list below, and you really only need the first 7. The redundancy section are additional decorations mods where I only used a specific item or 2 that I listed as well. I would highly recommend getting them anyways. FULL INTERIOR MOD LIST: *_MUST HAVE_* 1) Better Buildable Walls Vol. 1 - Ship hab & outpost-styled walls/panels/doors/dividers 2) Betamax Functional Décor - Immersive functional decorations/furniture; custom workbenches 3) Furnish Your Fleet - Ship hab bunk/galley/bathroom/shower modules to re-design empty habs *_SHOULD HAVE THESE_* 4) Midas Manor - Decorations and decorative bundles, pre-decorated furniture; custom workbenches 5) Skully's Emporium AIO - Individual decorations 6) Weapon Displays Enhanced - Better ways to display weapons with more racks and orientations 7) Panels - Displays and monitors that aren't offered in the other decorative mods *_REDUNDANT DECORATIVE MODS [that offer more of the same but in different styles]_* 8) Nem's Deco Pack - Pre-decorated & functional furniture; custom workbenches (functional storage shelf in the armory) 9) Better Living Outpost Décor - Individual decorations and pre-decorated furniture not offered in the above mods (1 monitor display in the med station area) 10) Starizon - Ship Furniture - Additional ship furniture not included in the the above mods (jump seats in cell + desk chair) *_OPTIMIZATIONS_* 11) Builder by Nahruuk - increases tolerances for decoration placement so you can clip decorations and place them easier 12) Place Doors Yourself by Jimsoon - place doors/ladders where you want

@ top man, appreciate this bro 🍻

@ no problem, feel free to reach out if you ever have any questions or need help on the builds. I’ll get back you asap!

@@NotAnon-yl9hd those all come from Better Ship Part Flips by rux616. Make sure you also get his Better Ship Part Snaps mod as well. And then there’s a separate Decorative Engines mod by Sadyr-Machiba as well. BSPFlips doesn’t have decorative engines for some reason. These decorative engines come with a whole bunch of extra flips too

@High_Key I am right on top of that, thank you captain.

@ I got you!

When you try shoving the components, do they just snap into different areas like on top or bottom? Make sure you have the necessary mods installed. In this case, the mod Ship Building Tweaks by EVANSY is allowing me to merge the components a bit easier by stacking them back-to-back and shoving them in. There's 3 components: the reactor, grav drive and cargo hold. Stack them all back-to-back, then select the rear most 2, and literally drag them forward into the first one until the second component merges with the first. It requires selecting 2 modules behind the 1 you're merging into. That's why I keep placing cargo holds, so that there are 2, with 1 merging in each time. Also, Duplication is still possible but the method is slightly different. I go over the steps starting at the 16:04 mark in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5TIf59napdloJI

@@olecwow this one is HANDS DOWN my favorite build so far, so glad you like this one! I fly this one regularly despite always building new ships. I even tried creating a whole Jurassic Park themed outpost just for this ship too 😂

@@Groovy_Ruins_YT I’m happy to take requests! I do have a backlog of ships I’m. Trying to finish up so might take some time to get to but if it’s something I really like, I’ll bump it up higher on the to-do list!

Ha! Same here 😂 I happened to get a request to do an upgrade and at the same time, there was a Reddit community challenge to retrofit an in-game ship, so I figured let’s kill two birds with one stone here. And that’s correct! I don’t remember if it happens on every encounter but the Razorleaf triggers a dialogue sequence from the hostiles you encounter who mention that you’re the Mantis in fear, and then they Grav jump away. You can change up the ship all you want and you’ll still be able to do this, so no worries about upgrading it. I think you can even change the name of the ship and it’ll still trigger that dialogue from hostiles.

@@High_Key nice. Might have to do a mantis build then. Been using my OG ship for so long I'm actually out of touch with ship building!

@ I’m on the opposite end of the spectrum. I’ve been ship building only for so long, I need to bring myself up to speed again with the story and faction quests again 😂😅

@@ObsidianAngiris let me see if I can detail it out a bit better here. Can you shoot me a timestamp of where you’re at specifically?

@@MotherCoyote-z5i hang tight, I’ll gather the full interior mod list for you! Also, for the engines, I’m using a mod called “ModularSeries - Cheaty Engines” by EVANSY from Creations which changes all engine power to 1, so you can have up to 12

@@High_Key Many thanks! I appreciate that you took the trouble.

@@MotherCoyote-z5i no problem at all! Always happy to help, and have a great New Year

I will definitely get my ships up as mods and I’ll be sure to include this one. I’m totally new to modding so bear with me 😅 have a great New Year!

@@MotherCoyote-z5i the mini bracer is from the Better Ship Part Flips mod by rux616. It’ll be located just under the regular bracer. If you don’t see it then you probably have an older version that needs to be updated. Same goes for the flipped cargo.

@@High_Key Well... he did say Creation club Only. That'll teach me to take advice from facebook group comments. lol Loaded Creation Club mods this morning and bingo. I shall never doubt a KZbinr again.

Let’s goo 🤜🤛 Hope you have a great New Year man!

Thank you so much man 🙏 I’m going to get them up one way or another!

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed and hope you have a wonderful New Year full of epic ship builds 🤜🤛

Heyy thank you for tuning in Vladarin! I really appreciate it, and hope you have a wonderful New Year

Wow I really appreciate it! I'm enjoying the editing process as much as the building process, so it's been fun. Thank you for watching and Happy New Year

Ha! Thank you very much brotha! This Mantis suit is definitely an upgrade in the looks department. Happy New Year to you as well!

Just a personal preference. I started out with all particle beams but slowly tapered off through the year. I really enjoy the ship combat in this game, and the particle beams are too much of a delete button that end the dogfights too quickly. The other primary reason is the cool factor. Ballistics just sound cool to me and with the "Faster Autocannons" mod, it's like having a C-RAM or gatling gun on your ship. The mod is a bit too balanced, and the ballistic damage should be buffed a bit, but I'm using mods like "18 Ship Weapons" and "1 Ship Weapon Power" to help with that. With these mods, the damage output balances the ship dogfights _just enough_ to make them feel very engaging.

Also! Tracklist in order: Infraction - Blockbuster Call Me Sleeper - The Reckoning John Presstone: - The Untold Story - The Dark Side of Technology - Twisted Minds Humans Win - Cosmic Geometry Le Metroid - Gemini Ambyion x Shockline - Daydream Simon Jomphe Lepine - Sunshine Shallou x Ayokay - Us [Oscar Hetak Remix & downtempo by me]

@@High_Key Thanks.

Man, I'm really humbled by that, thank you 🙏 I absolutely will, and you hope you have a wonderful New Year Thomas!

Those tiny builds got me hooked with maximizing the interior space lol thank you Grizz, I hope you have a wonderful New Year brother!

@ and you are dam good at it! Likewise my dude!

Taking on the role of the Mantis as a full-on quest would've been really cool now that I think about it. I'll be honest, while I did enjoy the main quest, I actually prefer Starfield as sci-fi game than a fantasy game, so I completely avoid using things like the powers. I guess I wish the main quest went in a slightly different direction too

@@High_Key That "Starborn" rubbish would be more fitting to a game set in an Asimov-esque galactic empire where the Starborn are... I don't know... maybe a group of super-soldier protecting the empire? Members of the nobility chosen by their special powers? Anything would be better than what we got. Other underused quests are the UC Vanguard/Freestar Rangers questlines. Imagine how it would be see them expanded and turned into Starfield's main quest instead of that existential "Starborn" rubbish. Hell, I can easily imagine a main quest where someone else beyond Vae Victis discovers the relationship between the heatslugs, the Lazarus plant and the terrormorphs and start using that knowledge to weaponise those beasts. Now, imagine that same individual(s)/organization _selling_ the results of that knowledge for the highest bid for the Va'ruun or the Crimson Fleet and what would happen if one of they started using the terrormorphs as weapon agains both the UC and the Freestar Collective.

I got you! I'm planning an interior mod deep dive video. Not sure when I'll be able to get it out but it'll be sooner than later

@ that would be amazing, your interiors are always so good and they just fit so well with the build, I’m very new to modding and have no clue how load orders work or how to get the game to run well with them. Absolutely love your content and am going to be supporting as much as possible.

​@@dylanmmoore19 Thank you dude! I'm all new to modding too but I just followed a few generalized guides that I found online. Bear in mind, I'm playing on PC but I followed this guide which has worked for me so far: www.reddit.com/r/Starfield/comments/1dchmwh/recommend_mod_load_order_template/ This list doesn't specify where ship mods and outposts go, but I put them after "7) Plants and foliage mods for the entire game" (or 6 if you don't have plant/foliage mods like me). I went with the ship building mechanics/optimizations mods first (Better Ship Part Flips/Snaps, Ship Building Tweaks, etc), then the parts mods (Avontech, Matilija etc), then the outpost mechanics mods, then the outpost parts/decorative items. And these would wrap up right before the "8) Gameplay changes/tweaks/add-on such as combat/magic/perks/etc"

@@High_Key I’m on Xbox so I’m going to try it out but for some reason when I have certain mods downloaded my game likes to skip especially in cydonia, neon, and the well, I’m not sure why but I’m thinking it’s either my load order or conflicting mods, but again I’m so new to modding to the point I switched from ps5 to Xbox around 4 months ago just to play starfield and download mods on Bethesda games. Also your help is greatly appreciated.

You got it! I'll add it to my list 🤜🤛

Thank you so much! I have a lot of fun doing building as well as doing these little trailers for the ships and felt inspired to create a quick Batman-styled monologue for the Mantis haha

@@High_Key well its awesome man! really appreciated, sells your build even 10 fold!

Heyy thanks for stopping by again! You know, I haven't done a Mantis playthrough in a while, but this suit replacer pretty much motivated this entire build to happen, and I haven't taken it off since 😂 Hope you have a wonderful New Year btw!

Let's go!! 💪 I actually got a build request to do an updated Razorleaf so finally got around to doing it!

That's truly humbling Dave, thank you! Hope you have a wonderful New Year!

Thank you very much Derek, thank you for tuning in and Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Brian! Thank you for all the support and for continuing to tune in

I believe there is a mod (free) on Creations that makes the Mantis a veteran UC ‘Ace’ pilot.

Yup! Brian's correct, I used the Mantis - UC Ace Pilot mod by MonkeyChief1170 on Creations. It's a replacer and changes up the lore so that the Mantis is a callsign for a veteran UC pilot. Official Mantis lore doesn't change though, just a skin replacer.

Ha! I'm right there with you. At the point I think I might just start a new save. I'm worried my main save is going to break from being too congested 😅 Starlancer YES! I will definitely give that one a shot. Happy New Year bro! Thank you so much for tuning in and supporting!

@ Thank you.

Dude Thank you so much bro. I wanted to try a few things new things, and glad you noticed! And right? Wouldn't it be awesome to have like your own BountyForge Steel POI to buy your ships? I'm hoping to have my own POI staryard where you can either purchase my ships or unlock them through quests. But man...I haven't even started yet. I've opened the CK a few times to try and navigate and it's like a foreign language to me still 😂it's most likely going to just be ship packs like Hongooi

@high key Of course I noticed, man! You know I’m a huge fan of how you make videos. If I ever get around to making my own, I’m definitely taking some inspiration from you. 😂🤣 Bro, are you reading my mind? That’s exactly what I want to do. I even want to turn my three characters-Rik, Axel, and Raven-into followers, each with their own unique backstory and ship. Completing their quests could lead to becoming friends, earning their ships as rewards, or even stealing the ships for yourself, depending on your choices. I also want to incorporate ship battles, like when you fly into Serpentis and get ambushed. The possibilities are endless with our imagination.

@@Rikhammer Let me know when you do, definitely would be happy to share some tips I've learned along the way! And no way! Having a companion-tied quest to unlock ships and have a new follower would be so dope! So that's why you were really following JRamos' videos when he was doing the RamTech AI bots. Man that's epic!

@@High_Key Yes, trying to learn CK is a bit alien, but getting the hang of it, I should be releasing my first mod soon. A ship pack of 6 ships that I’ve enjoyed building and flying around. Most definitely I’ll be sharing what I learned and asking for any tips you’ve learned as well. 🤜🏻🤛🏻😎🫡

@@Rikhammeryooo that’s so dope! I can’t wait to see what you’ve done! Was it pretty complicated to do?

Thank you olemanshad! Hope you enjoy, and Happy New Year!

Heyyy, the Duneraker IV is a sick build! Thanks for stopping by over here too. I like the montages you do btw, I just checked a few of them out. Got my sub 👍

Then mission accomplished, thank you! 🤜🤛

For the interior, make sure you also have a Creations mod called "Builder" by Nahruuk. This mod allows decorations to clip and merge more than normal. This should be the trick!

@@thirdworldrider6991 when the weapons stay red, do they stay merged in place? If so, then just select all then accept to snap the weapon into place. Duplicate one at a time then select all + accept and repeat Also, I’m using mods from Creations so that Xbox players can also build these ships. I guess Ship Building Tweaks is Creations only. If it doesn’t screw up your load order, I recommend getting it

@@thirdworldrider6991 yup! That’s what I mean by select all + accept. Good rule of thumb is to do this after each merge. Sometimes think could snap offset if there’s too many nearby snapping options available. When that happens, you can snap an extra part to “block” those snapping points to force the parts you want to snap into place. But it sounds like you go it! Glad it’s working out! Let me know if you have any other questions, I’m always happy to help!

@@potatogrower that song is Daydream by Ambyion, Shockline & Vidoux Great choice 👍 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

@ merry Christmas pal.

@@olecwow ha! Awesome brotha! This one’s one my most popular builds and an all-timer for me. Not exactly a full-on Carrack build but certainly in the spirit of it and a total exploration ship ! Merry Christmas to you and the family! PS: the duplication method is a bit different now so if you get stuck with it, I’ll point you to a timestamp to a different build where I explain the new process!

@@olecwow you bet I am! It’s a work in progress at the moment

@@High_Key hahaha awesome. looking to do more star citizen ships builds. Working on a small one myself now

@@Buufenheim you definitely can use vanilla merging techniques still. Bethesda brought back Flipping as an official ship building technique which you can toggle on/off in settings. They call it “merging” now. No penalties for having it on. Variant swap is no longer available but Duplication still is, albeit using a Deimos Hull only and a slightly different process. Then there’s mods which just basically allow all the tolerances so merging techniques aren’t necessary anymore since you can just attach the parts how you want. Would be happy to elaborate on the Duplication method if you would like. The process is slightly different and it’s best to show you, which I can via a timestamp to one of my videos where I detail the steps. Just need to look for it, so I’ll keep you posted on that

@High_Key No way. How can anyone hate bethesda? Bringing a glitch like that back in as a feature? Far out, man

@ it’s amazing how quickly they backtracked removing the glitches. They decided to add flipping as feature literally the next month 😂

@@High_Key it would also be great to have that timestamp. Thank you so much! I subbed, 100% deserved

@ thank you very much! I’ll find it asap and send it over

@@raphaellee1912 yup that’s exactly it! Select all by clicking any of the parts that are attached and then press whichever button it is to accept (space on keyboard, and I believe A on controller)

@@High_Keythanks bro love you, also 4:26 that pack is it mod? or in-game? i just played this game btw sorry for asking

@ no problem bro! I’m always happy to help so no worries. Yeah that pack is from a mod. It’s from zone79’s Spacer Overhaul which is a paid mod. A bit on the pricey side but it adds a tonnn of new suits packs and helmets, all tastefully done. If you don’t want to pay for mods, then check out zone79’s Nomad Spacesuit mod which is free and has a bunch of suits/packs/helmets and one of the packs is similar to the one at 4:26. In general, definitely check out zone79’s mods. Easily the best gear and apparel available!

@@High_Keyjust download the pack, the armor looks awesome. 53:46 that mannequin armor also mod?

​@@raphaellee1912 my bad for the late reply! That outfit is from the Star Wars Classic Hero Collection mod by Mr. Crozzbow. This mod comes with various outfits from Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Lando Calrissian from Star Wars, and this outfit in particular is Han Solo's Hoth outfit. I highly recommend this one too because all Han Solo and Leia outfits are amazing and fit the Starfield vibe really well. Only issue is there will be body morphing issues if your character is bulkier.
