[@oxhorn]

Thanks for the shout-out! I love what you do :)

[@RoshiGaming]

Explain?

[@jacksonelh]

El Kudos I feel like he was trying to explain something different, he just didn't explain as well as he could've. I think that what ox was saying is that we shouldn't let standards set by other (admittedly better) games ruin our experience of fallout 4, because when you take fallout 4 at face value, it's pretty damn great. It's ok to criticize, just don't let it ruin your and other people's experience with this great (though not a good fallout) game

[@PaladinMthe13th]

Oxhorn, love you videos!

[@emrfish6]

It is amazing what modders are capable of.

[@DreddPirateRoberts]

1:05 - FYI, Transfer Settlements just works fine without HUD Framework. You just won't have that little widget that shows your import/export progress.

[@simple-commentator-not-rea7345]

"It just works" This disease is spreading to the Fallout modding community, because I did EVERYTHING as told, and the mod still won't work

[@Bauhauskiddo]

There's this mod called Sim Settlements that's like an overhaul of the settlement system that looks really interesting, you can choose a place for your settlers to build something (houses, shops, etc) and they'll do it on their own. If you keep them in a good mood they'll upgrade the buildings, I think. It looks really cool and just the sort of thing you'd take a look at, Gopher.

[@Sleepy.Time.]

nice shoutout for Oxhorn, he really does have a great channel

[@elezraita]

Settlements aren't my thing, but the technical aspects of this mod are staggering. Incredible mod. What would be cool is if this could be scripted to import and then have the settlement appear over the course of several days or weeks to make it seem like the settlers were building things instead of being useless. The more settlers, the faster the imported settlement gets built.

[@TheCrazer666]

I've literally been waiting for this since FO4's launch. I'll finally be able to enjoy the game!

[@cpfs936]

This... is...PERFECT! I Want to go back & replay a good portion of the game, but not lose any of the work I've done on my settlements. I

[@bverji]

I can't get the mod to recognize blurprints

[@raverdeath100]

nice shout out to Oxhorn.

[@RealSancez]

This will sure be useful if and when I manage to bring myself to play FO4 again.

[@somerandom7672]

I love this mod! I was quite impressed by how simple it is to use and how well it works.

[@nighthawk8412]

Gopher, Thank you for showcasing Oxhorn's blueprints. It's great to see settlements not made by the most well known authors.

[@brennenhorton2493]

OMG YES! This is the #1 thing I thought this game needed

[@straatman12345]

Thank you so much for this video! I followed all the steps here and it didn't work so I was puzzled for about 3 hours. Then I found your mod preparation videos and there was 1 line missing in my prefs.ini file. Weirdly, half the line was there so I must've done half of it some time, then closed it or something! As soon as I added that line in, the transfer settlements worked! Thank you very much!

[@seraphlord]

very cool, had no idea that was possible. That guys a genius for figuring it all out!

[@ICULooking]

I don't care much for this mod but I'm still watching this. The Gopher effect.

[@xavierleroux2079]

je suis français et comprend un peu l’anglais, avec ta bonne prononciation, je comprend parfaitement ce que tu dis, good talk !

[@t.pistole1318]

Thanks for highlighting and showing how to install the mod. I just wish that this mod was done earlier. I have already done everything I wanted to do in fallout 4 and have gone back to playing borderlands 2 for now.

[@claespetersson1812]

Thank you Gopher! Sincerely for going in depth on "how to". This is very appreciated!

[@Caliburnius]

When I saw this on Oxhorn's channel I started thinking it might be fun to post tours of settlements on KZbin then upload the blueprints to Nexus for any of them that generated significant interest. However, as cool as this mod is for self-use if you have multiple characters (so far I do not), the more plugins needed to replicate the build the less desirable the blueprints will be to others (it seems to me). Probably vanilla settlements (game and DLCs only) will be more useful/popular, yes? In any case it's a great new toy to play with.

[@WizardOfAtlantis]

Will you upload your settlements, Gopher? I would very much like that crossover in the multiverse.

[@johnshirayuki]

now..here's a question, will you be making your settlements into blueprints for others to use?

[@spicydeath82]

there's always the scrapall command to scrap the entire settlement at once. just be careful when you have a couple of settlements in sight of each other such as red rocket and sanctuary hills. apparently it'll scrap stuff in any loaded settlements.

[@jogon1052]

Thanks Gopher. Your Mod clinics are always informative. It is a pity that, going on some of the comments, that there are some who want everything handed to them on a plate which completely negates the background lore behind the game. The settlers have had two hundred years to build settlements but no one who could actually put in the overall infrastructure to keep them in a somewhat safe environment.

[@paulpowell1194]

Love the deck on on the billboard, can't believe I never thought of that! May have to get FO4 on PC at some point, looks like some fun PC exclusive mods are picking up again.

[@ValkyrieLightwing]

Wow. I saw this on the Nexus but didn't fully look into it. That is a really cool mod. Def gonna have to download that one when I play Fallout again

[@Ko700el]

i've been waiting for this since the FO4 launch day ...OHH MY GOD Thank you cdante and Oxhornmovies..now i will NEVER have to fix the damn sanctuary or any other settlement EVER again...specially since almost everyone can make a better settlement than me...GOPHER...are you planning to upload your settlements at the Nexus ???

[@Ko700el]

IF this was the frist playthrought (or the first few months of the game i would agree with you...but after rebuilding the sanctuary for the trillion time this becomes annoying...one would say do playthroughs without settlements ..and i have done many...but that eliminated 80% of the loot...so im at the point of searching for ready made stuff...plus many of my settlements aren't as elaborated as stuff i''ve seen online.. P.S and i find BS that someone hasn't made an "architecture" mod (give to someone the items so HE/SHE can make the settlement) like we have in FNV ..where the X npc sends you to a place to find XX and you bring it back to and in X amount of time the building is complete (Byson Steve Casino).....have you ever played AC2 ? ..were you have an architect in monterigioni that fixes the city for you when you give him money...

[@Ko700el]

what made me replay it over and over...lets players...i played it for few months and the got bored of it after finishing it and deleted it...then i see someone elses playthrough of stuff/places i haven't seen or the perk build looks interesting and i boot up again the game with a different character...rinse and repeat

[@KalEl7802]

+GiRayne Building a settlement can take hundreds of hours in the game. I spent the last two weeks just improving the houses in Sanctuary.

[@drunkredninja]

This dropped and Sim Settlements dropped. 2 big game changers for FO4 imo.

[@lonnieolafson3965]

This is very cool but I never do things the same way on each play through, I learn new things as I build and add this to the new buildings.Also building in settlements is half my fun and I like to try different things each time.But this mod is great for people who don't like to mess around with building in Fallout 4.

[@Vercalos]

Funny how this mod took the NExus by storm

[@darcyw156]

Thanks, Gopher. Very informative, and I am now eager to give it a try!

[@Red52729]

This mod is AMAZING! I don't know why you would turn the nuke explotions off that was great.

[@Rhadagar]

This is beautiful.

[@TMWrath]

ooooohhh shit he knows ox exist... one step closer for a collaboration on ox's lore videos!!

You need to check this 'Sim Settlements' mod.

[@TheAlexagius]

I just hope robbaz does this with some of his crime against humanity settlements.

[@Kevin_Eder]

I'd be amazed if this could actually export his stuff.

[@themaskofdude]

OMG OXHORN WOOT!!!

[@nstorm2415]

really nice redrocket gas station, im proud of my sanctuary small city, it include bars and a los of other entertaiments.

[@danedwards8317]

You know what this means Gopher. Now you have to start a new series where you download and tour all of our settlement builds much like you tour the Minecraft server to see our builds there. I've seen some FO4 builds that are as fantastic as some of the Minecraft builds and some that are soo realistic and detailed they will blow your mind.

[@dog_on_chair]

the importing isn't working, I even turned on animation to see if it was just a bug or whatever and nothing is happening

[@RXTRUX1]

This is great! I can't stand the building interface or pointless building in the first place; but with this hopefully moders will make some cool looking places available. Is there a way to preinstall the blueprints to a new game?

[@zynix3698]

You'd still have to reconnect power lines. Also could you import to settlements that you have not unlocked yet? I'd like to start a new game with settlements already built as well so I could play a raider without having to build the settlements myself.

[@yes1sir1no1sir]

So you want to roleplay in fallout 4? Lol...that's a real knee-slapper!

[@RXTRUX1]

What does RP have to do with this?

[@RXTRUX1]

Is there an issue with the various file paths if you use ModOrganizer? I can't find the files it exports even though I can import them back.

[@Ubermicropwned]

Am i the only one who misses gopher's videos on bethesda games? he rarely makes fallout 4 videos.

[@memorandom7484]

See now, why couldn't Bethesda have done something like this in the first place?

[@MrEditsCinema]

holy shit!! these fallout mods are very complicated.. if people can do this anything is possible ;p

[@ChildofEden96]

will you be uploading some of your settlements gopher ?

[@OtsukisamaNeko]

I believe the tutorial might be outdated as the transfer settlement page is already different, the installation process too, and we are now forced to use vortex

[@sproy1]

I have one question about this mod: Does importing settlements grant my character the same XP that I would have gotten by building that settlement from scratch? See, for those of us who take our settlement building seriously, that's actually one of the biggest rewards. The settlements themselves offer very little of real value, aside from a regular recurring supply of adhesive in the form of vegetable starch. But other than that, settlements are mostly independent of the rest of the game. The primary reward we get from building large, elaborate settlements is the ability to get lots of levels without putting yourself in mortal peril. This mod definitely looks like it would take that reward away ... unless the mod specifically makes a note of how much experience was gained by making that mod from scratch and included that data in the blueprint file. That's something the mod developer MIGHT have done, but it's not something I would necessarily EXPECT him to do!

[@CammyWammy1227]

I installed a blueprint but it wont recognize it...

[@user-ob1kh6hp1y]

Hey Gopher! Any chance of you uploading your settlements? i quite like your building style!

[@clone10123]

I'm unsure if this mod has came across your radar but Sim settlements released the other day and it looks like it has a lot of promise

[@SwedudeEPIC]

Cool mod!

[@nvsnake1489]

I can't figure out how to import a blueprint. If I try to nuke my settlement to start fresh, it says no workshops nearby. If I try to import, it says there are no blueprints even though I download several from the nexus. any help?

[@daxterisawesome]

same here did you find a solution?

[@nvsnake1489]

I did actually. You have to go into your data folder following this path: Data\F4SE\Plugins\TransferSettlements\blueprints\ and create a folder named "1". This apparently creates the "slot 1" spot. If you want to import a blueprint, make sure you have a .json file in that folder. These are actually steps for a exporting but it works the same way. I was pretty disappointed that the instructions werent so detailed or that no one provided a solution anywhere I asked. Hope this helps.

[@leszybushcraft160]

Tactical dot .

[@Dudbun]

Thank you so much, it was so frustrating trying to find out a way to import from the Nexus

[@nvsnake1489]

I have to warn you tho, I imported a castle blueprint, made some additions and tried to export it to another save game. I couldn't export and the file wouldn't overwrite my version of the settlement. This is probably a incorrect method but it's what I figured out on my own when nobody would tell how to do it the correct way (even after reading the installation instructions). It works but you probably can't export your settlement.

[@wingingitwithbleep8934]

ty gopher

[@SpaceCoastDragon]

You said the Red Rocket settlement you exported was from your character Barry. Wasn't he your XB1 character? How'd you manage that?

[@SpaceCoastDragon]

That makes sense. Thanks! :)

[@kitkat12326]

So fancy Will it work with custom settlements like Fiddler's Green settlement mod?

[@michaelhitchcock9255]

The edit for Fallout4Custom.ini has changed in version 1.3b of this mod. The entire section under Papyrus seems to be no longer required. The author has removed those instructions from the description and now it only requires the little change bInvalidateOlderFiles=1 and sResourceDataDirsFinal= that many other mods also require.

[@blackandwhitesolus9489]

Fantastic video as always.. but there is a pressing question I have. Why is Macready in a dress?

[@gracieannpinker1492]

This a a COOL Mod. WOW. Modders just amaze me on what they can do. Just curious, would this work from another players saved game? Oxhorn has a wonderful working factory he made at the Mechanist Vault.

[@bbenjoe]

For some reason, export is not working for me. Seemingly it does its thing, but in the end it says it exported 0 items...

[@PaladinMthe13th]

Great video, very informative!

[@Mosiak1897]

Does Transfer Settlements also remove items/objects that were removed by your other character? I use scrap everything in my settlements and it would be amazing if this mod fully replicates everything you've added as well as delete removed items/objects.

[@automaticnostatic2148]

Not sure if you read all of your comments but I followed the instructions to a T and still cannot import blueprints from nexus mods. The blueprints are in the correct folder but nothing is in the pip boy when I load them up.

[@ps2gamer295]

Great video; love your Mod Vault and Mod Clinic. In your Pip-boy, how do you get the colour instead of b&w? Not just the display colour, but how do you change the actual icon and text colours? Thanks!

[@cengizhanceviker9639]

I wonder if we can travel from the settlement anywhere on the map while exporting/importing? I have quite large settlements with over 2-3000 items to be exported/imported.

Gopher! Will you by any chance play The Frontier when it's finished?

[@123456gordon]

Are you gonna try Mod Organizer with FO4 any time soon? Most mods do work, a few mods can't be unpacked and crash the manager, but the majority of them work. With the exception of DEF_UI, the mod itself works, but customizing the HUD seems to be impossible with MO. So I wanted to know myself if there's any way to make it work.

[@winterworld1958]

Gopher. I may need your help because I have installtion problem for the transfer settlement mod and required mods that I have already have it, but when loading on F4SE, and ingame, the transfer settlement mod is either have a wrong .dll or not load at all. Can you find out what did I do wrong?

[@keeskaas9578]

Awesome, I have a question though. What about load orders? If someone exports a blueprint with items from OCDecorator does the person importing the blueprint need to have OCDecorator in the same load order?

[@Lilithabyss]

Thank you very much for this! This helped me A lot! lol

[@DiabeticNecromancer]

Gopher check out Sim Settlements, its pretty awesome!

[@carson79]

I have the holotape but when I’m in a settlement it says no settlement can be detected what did I do wrong please help

[@Str8UpBustasGem]

quick question, do you need the supplies to build the settlment before importing it, or does it all magically appear?

[@RiffyDevine]

Do you plan to do any videos on merging mods?

[@johncameron1349]

hi gopher any chance you can post the .ini stuff here cheers.

Amazing mod and great video. I would pay money to be able to transfer my PS4 settlements to PC...

Can you explain where to put the settlement blueprints for importing

[@alansmith19890]

Hey Gopher, can you suggest the best way to organise your mod order? I just downloaded Darker Nights and True Storms but neither seems to be working.

Hi there.. I don't know what goepher use. But this thing is pretty much what.. atleast 4/5 of us are using. loot.github.io/

[@respiratoryfailure3780]

Can you import the settlement then leave and do other stuff while importing? Cause I'm importing a settlement that has 10 thousand items.

[@sproy1]

Does this mod allow me to obtain higher-level items (e.g. fusion generators and missile turrets) even if I don't have the perks or required levels to make them myself?

[@Keloot]

gopher watches oxhorns? :O

[@7Naruto8]

No matter what I do I always get "There are no blueprints to import", can someone please help me

[@mishea13]

Probably a dumb question but can BluePring Settlements be used anywhere? Example...can I use Sanctuary Blueprint at Sunshine Trading Post for instance?

[@GophersVids]

No, sorry.

[@CaudilloSilovik]

Great mod, but I'm still having trouble getting my system to recognize the current version of F4SE. Never did quite work for me, but very few mods required it, so...

[@ZeroEx131]

Is there a reason why when you use nexus manager with other mods, it doesn't open the load order for your blueprints? Your's is the only one that works for me like that and it freezes my game after it transfers

[@miazuki916]

Hey guys i've added a few different sanctuary blueprints with this mod but they aren't showing up in the import menu, anyone got some idea what i've might have done wrong? kinda ran out of ideas after searching for a solution for a few hours now

[@sparky663]

why wasnt there downloadable settlements in the beginning -_-

[@Qmodi]

because that would be a potential DLC, we cant allow them to have mustard with their hotdog now that they also bought the bun.

[@TomBombadilTheEldest]

because bethesda was more worried about those 11 fuckign pages of character dialog nobody asked for.

Because that's just not what game companies have in mind when creating games. I would've never expected Beth to implement Downloadable settlements on launch. Don't see why would they. Of all the things I've seen people wondering why they weren't already in the game, this one makes the least sense.

[@jogon1052]

You could say the same about all of the mods that have been made, "Why did Bethesda not do this for the original game"? They would never have released the game if they had even thought about that. But they have given mod makers the availability to do so and probably saved themselves having to employ another hundred extra staff. I think giving mod makers the ability to make mods according to the way they see the game is a far superior alternative.

[@lop90ful1]

Because they let modders do their work for them

[@ectogambit]

i doesn't look like this mod is working with the Latest version of Fallout4
