Fallout 4 Jamaica Plains Expanded Settlement Tour

[@InnercityHillbilly]

I really enjoy watching your videos. I absolutely love what you did with Jamaica Plains.

[@AoxyFngel]

Thank you, I really appreciate you taking the time to view some of my older builds. I like to think I've improved in my coming videos but I'm still pretty smitten with this build, as it still fits into my current style perfectly. So much so that I blueprinted it and still bring it into my current saves 😛

Great work, again. I've just been working on Jamaica Plains. What a pity the game developers didn't think about the need to cut the grass sometimes.

[@BionicleJackson]

Love the bar you put together here as well as the garage. You managed a nice pre-war comfy aesthetic to Jamaica Plains. I seldom bother with this settlement myself, as it's not somewhere I often visit during playthroughs, and it's soo much effort. It does look nice when repaired though 🤔 Curses. Now I need to reevaluate my life choices 😞

[@DJ_Bonebraker]

This looks really amazing! I have a similar mod, or at least one that appears to incorporate this one, namely the Commonwealth Responders. Unfortunately, everything past certain cells to the north of the town hall & east of the statue next to the church are completely unmodifiable, even with console commands: Anytime I try to select stuff in those cells to disable or whatever, it returns the "Picked Non Ref AV Object:" message, meaning that everything in those cells is part of a hard-coded precombine that can't be edited in-game (need to get the creation kit to mess with those, once I figure out how to use the darn thing). So I'm a bit jealous of the fact that you can actually fully utilize the entire expanded build area properly. Still, even with what I can work with, it at least doubles the amount of workable area, and I plan on using some of the construction equipment from the Homemaker mod & construction signs from Gruffydd's Signs & Posters to indicate that the rest of the town is still under construction/renovation.... Also thanks for pointing out about the underground water edge being where the cell boundary between what is safe to build in & what's still considered part of Hyde Park is. I toggled the cell boundary visualization to confirm, and it is right about where I suspected it would be. EDIT: Also wanted to thank you for pointing out that the two boarded up houses near the church used the same exterior model as two of the Covenent house prefabs in the Homemaker mod. That should save me some time (and settlement budget) when I get around to replacing those two.

Wow that's quite a detailed response and I really appreciate it. I'm sorry I'm 8 months late to this and I'm a bit bummed I don't remember seeing the notification of your comment. I wish I'd have responded then but I'll try now. I also peeked at that mod and that's really neat they brought elements of Fo76 in. I played a little of that when it came out but ultimately didn't stick around. Nice to see this mod though. I may have just learned from your experience and didn't realize just how much of the heavy lifting the All settlements extended mod might doing. I always thought it was scrap everything that let me select/disable those outskirt buildings/precombines but I don't always understand the mods the mods I'm using. Working on that though 😛 But yeah it's kind of a bummer you can't dig into those other buildings though. I was so happy when I found that mod because the entirety of Jamaica plains is so fun to build in. I've recently seen other creators make use of construction zones/signs to allude to content to come and it's quite clever. I like it. I'm glad that my scoping out that waters edge cell boundary and pointing it out helped you and others out. I know I didn't (and still don't) fully understand how cells work in terms of building but a lot of trial and error helped me find that one. One of the biggest cues was the notable audio/music change too so that's how I discovered it aligned with that water table each time I crossed it. If you use the Homemaker Covenant buildings, the windows are unfortunately opaque but I've made use of the Settlements Objects Expanded pack to use Institute light walls in some of my more recent builds to create the Illusion of a sunlit window. There's an example in my recent Home Plate build that I uploaded for reference. I got the idea from the creator Cordless VII. His builds definitely influenced mine a lot over time. So again, sorry if this is too late and thank you. I hope you've had good luck building and an enjoyable Fo4 experience!

[@AoxyFngel]

Woah, I was trying to figure out why I recognize your name. I found you while randomly browsing for inspiration and started following you on Twitch a little while back watching you build at Abernathy. Props to you for streaming your builds, so few people do, and I'm sorry I never interacted during your streams. I have a habit lately of keeping to myself. Either way I'll be subscribing and checking out more of your builds. It's nice to see you upload your tours to YT.

[@DJ_Bonebraker]

@AoxyFngel Thanks for watching my streams & subbing to my channel. As for the opaque windows in the Covenant houses, I actually deliberately used it in my Jamaica Plain build by placing Snappy Housekit interior walls to add a bathroom. That way the "frosted" windows on that side made sense.

[@TimothyMorigeau]

Wow. I don't have the patience for this. So congrats.

[@aldunlop4622]

This is really nice. Nice video too, I gave you an upvote for your calm pleasant voice, lack of annoying music, and of the build:) I love clean, tidy builds, I don’t know why people would suddenly turn into animals. Rebuilding the world nicely would be great for people’s mental health. You deserve more views! I’ll send some traffic this way if I can.

[@AoxyFngel]

I really appreciate your kindness here. I've been really frustrated with my upcoming builds but I keep what you guys say in the back of my mind as inspiration to keep going. So it really does help and yours definitely cheered me up :)

[@jasonrussell5265]

Very nice. Previously played F4 on PS4, just grabbed it on PC and looking around for mods to install. This settlement always bugged me being too small. Now I know what to install. Thanks.

[@AoxyFngel]

Thank you, I've updated all my videos to include the Nexus modlist now if that helps more. I hope you have fun, mods are amazing.
