REBUILD CASTLE WALLS EASILY! (Fallout 4 Castle Wall Repair)

[@PeriTwinkleXO]

This is one of the best uses of that space I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@Cb9611]

Thank you for watching!

[@leaaronsanchez]

The castle is one of the most squishiest set on Wednesday is. You can build stuff outside and move them inside the walls

[@NannyOggins]

I am about to retake the castle in my current playthrough and this is definitely going to be the build I choose. I knew about the foundation trick but never considered using the barn tileset and incorporating it like that. Nice one! One suggestion I would make for future videos is to only build in daylight or strong light. Its very hard to see what you are doing when it gets dark. I do appreciate it means sleeping your character between sections but it would make the detail much easier to see.🙏

[@valandres]

I've rebuilt these walls at least a half dozen times using shack foundations with a garage door entrance... This is clean, while still being "easy", and still vanilla. 10/10 will build next time.

[@dubuyajay9964]

I know alot of ppl say this isn't the best colony, but I don't care...IT'S A CASTLE!

That's the slickest castle entrance I've ever seen! I'm going to try to do that on my next playthrough.

[@Cb9611]

Thank you! I've rewatched my original build a few times and honestly thought it was ugly. I said "time for a facelift".

[@serpintinelion8926]

That’s a big step up from your original castle build. Well done great use of the space. I almost tried something kind of similar a while back but got frustrated and irritated and scrapped everything.

[@Cb9611]

Yeah, recording this video was a challenge as well. When I say that one wall in particular is veeery finnicky, I'm not joking.

[@TimJasonShow]

Wow! Long time builder here in FO4... but never seen this for the castle, and you have re-inspired my castle build! New Follower here now, cheers!

[@Cb9611]

Thanks for watching. Glad to hear you're rebuilding your castle.

[@OKRMetric]

love this entrance you made.. I made it and added a siren that the settlers set off during attacks.. it is connected to the doors on both entrances and will automatically close the doors when they sound the alarm and open them back up when they turn it off..I take pop shots at the mirelurks across the water to cause an attack to test it out.

[@NickJC1086]

This is a trip down memory lane. I remember using your original tutorial back in early 2016. How time flies. Also, Castle is probably my favourite settlement to build in. It's always satisfying turning this run down, mirelurk infested area into a thriving settlement with rebuilt walls, shops, refurnished barracks etc. I think I sunk around 3500 hours into F4 😅, majoritiy of which was settlement building. Haven't played in about 4 years, but I'm thinking about picking it up again after the latest update and starting a fresh playthrough 😁

[@Sanningsmannen]

Glad to see someone else has also seen the combining factors of warehouse, scaffolding and concrete. I've rebuilt the castle walls in previous playthroughs, but never thought of including a building right through the wall; will take into consideration when I reach this place in my current playthrough. =)

[@jimcalhoun361]

I never even thought of building a gatehouse. Great vid!

[@robertpalladino9398]

This is such a good build! I wish Bethesda would give FO4 the free cam building option like in FO76, it makes building so much easier.

[@wolfen210959]

The absolute best repair of the castle walls I've seen, great job. :)

[@derek2297]

Very cool build. You can avoid the object jumping with the group select by selecting the post by itself first and then group select.

[@HeadHunterSix]

Wow! This is fantastic. You make it look easy - and I guess following along, it is - but figuring it out must have taken a lot of trial and error. Thanks for sharing your technique and build. It's very timely for me because I just reclaimed the Castle this evening, on my latest playthrough. Maybe this time I'll put in the effort, since I'm going all-in on the Minutemen this time around.

[@Cb9611]

The video is the "final take" lol. I spent hours trying to record it right lol.

[@JDGenn]

Bravo! Seriously good to see others "finish" these settlements. HA! Love seeing creativity and see what folks are capable of. Like the result. A cool idea! Patience. The one thing needed to build what you want, how you want it. I connected all of the Vault 88 areas ONCE ... and never again. ROFL Too many other characters failed to repeat the feat.

[@Smile_good68]

that is an amazing take on The Castle! I love it!

[@edvardnielsen6089]

19:39 - You can fill in this gap if you use the regular concrete floor (found under wood structures). If it won’t snap directly, try adding a shack stairwell to the any of the floors closest to the ground :) It also looks pretty okay because that concrete floor has almost the same colour as the castle walls :)

[@ThePinco]

In my steam version, to avoid a multyselection goes up to the sky, it is enough to select first the lone metal pillar and replaceing in the same position one time. after this operation, the multyselection taken by holding the selection button will stay in its place. maybe the same for the other versions.

[@mmoney9362]

Amazing. This helps to create more depth and immersion in the game.

[@MrCallMeNick]

I still love your barrack castle setup 8 years ago

[@connorfitton4294]

I use concrete to rebuild my walls, give the castle a bit of a run down look but a little spin to make it look interesting. I am working on a bar and other ideas I never thought of doing in my other gameplays.

[@DarkDoz]

Wow that’s a castle. Nice job building. I am playing on PS5 at level 18 and seem to run out of material all the time. I will have to link up Sanctuary with the Castle .

[@FuriousMaximum]

Ad Victoriam. I never posted a build of The Castle, since after I fix the walls I'm good. I don't edit or build much (which makes for a dull post) since I like it how it is.

[@Cb9611]

I like to keep The Castle simple. I've seen the over-the-top builds but they never really intrigue me.

[@Jake-Jake]

very interesting build, have seen a ton of doors/gates on the north wall, but not a warehouse, that looked good...

Honestly I never settled into the castle, I claimed it via the MM quest line but I didn’t like it. I stationed at Sanctuary til I was ready for the Island. I’ll have to give the castle a try. I like how you did the entrance. Make a nice kill chamber to lock enemies in

Finally got far enough in the game to do this. It looks great, the only issue I'm having is I only use the conduits for power and that's been a huge fight. Trying to get them close enough to the walls to look like there touching yet getting power to the whole settlement. I got the courtyard set up and am working on the internal areas. I just need to reset the build limit to continue.

Just a heads up. You can definitely move pieces on both the x and y axis. On PS4, it's left bumper and X to move objects vertically. I'm not sure what the button combination is on X box or PC, but they all have it.

There's one thing that always bothered me about using Concrete Blocks to fix the Castle's exterior walls: sometimes, the blocks intrude on the useable space inside the walls, including the access to the "inside" portion of the walls. Does your build suffer from this same problem? You never check to see.

How do you get to build with concrete? My foundation only comes from hardwood.

[@tarah5589]

I cant do this on PC. I can't place the floors into the ground using pillar trick. It's only allowing me to place the foundations on top of the ground. Do you know why? I know you used Xbox but any tips for PC gamers?

[@Cb9611]

I'm actually on PC, I just use an Xbox controller. I believe I stated in the video, but the build is very tedious. If placement is even only slightly off, the build will not work right. Make sure you've also scrapped everything in the general area that you're trying to build; that way nothing is in your way. I tend to use the "scrapall" command when I start a fresh build. However, DO NOT use that command until you've completed the Old Guns quest from Ronnie Shaw.

[@tarah5589]

Nvm, I got it by going one tier higher on first section of wall then filling in the foundations below it.

[@toohaziee.9060]

I honestly went straight into this game, thinking like I was on Skyrim. Just killing and doing mission and discovering new areas. Not knowing anything, I just restarted the whole game over at level 31 and so many hours invested, lol damn...

The only thing going against the castle is it's non-central location. For me, it's too far east. So I still turn Sanctuary Hills into my western base of operations. I know fast travel is a game mechanic, but if you're utilizing artillery, you'll want to place your cannons in well fortified settlements.

[@heartattackjack9349]

The only thing I do not like about the Castle is that you can't clean it up and remove all the debris, or replace the damaged walls. I think you should be able to demolish the damaged portions, use settlers (human power) to dig down and replace the foundations so that the walls can be rebuilt properly. Do not forget that humans built the old forts without machines. They did it by hand, with hand tools, and good planning. No excavators, no tractors or cutting machines to make it easier. All done with hammers, chisels, shovels, picks, blood, sweat and tears.

[@Cb9611]

That's the main thing that's always irked me about The Castle. I may end up using "Scrap Everything" to clean it up more but I prefer to play mostly Vanilla.

[@heartattackjack9349]

@@Cb9611 It is a decent mod, but you have to be careful with the older versions. I've deleted the walls completely once. Also, it doesn't remove all the debris, just most of it. It also doesn't cut the damaged walls straight. Those ugly portions with half built bricks and the slope is still there. I guess the devs only built the castle with damaged portions, and didn't add the two or three sections as removable skins. Short sighted, but the entire game is that way. Medieval Europe had massive castles built by hand, and human powered cranes. I would like to see those elements built into the game. Individual brick blocks, gravel blocks for the filling to absorb the punishment, and the outer layer meant to take the punishment of siege weapons.
