Fallout 4 - Rebuilding and Fixing the Castle Walls - 4K Ultra HD

[@Saltboi1823]

I wish there was a mission that allowed you to completely rebuild the fort

[@bradgameslive9597]

They need to add that to the creation club

[@BotoMunchah808]

@giizisogaabo I don’t know who will finish building first that building in gta or the settlers hammering that one house

[@matthewmacdermid455]

theeere is

@@BotoMunchah808 that’s wild 😭🤣

[@Beuwen_The_Dragon]

That would be great. The quest could involve gathering enough settlers in the castle, and they ‘shovel” at the debris piles. After several in game days the piles will be flattened. Then you are sent to one of the quarries in the Commonwealth , clear out raiders, and turn it into a settlement. Then gather quest specific settlers across the commonwealth to agree to ‘work the quarry” to gather stone and cement. After that the walls can be rebuilt. Oh but to dream…

Real

[@Halauris]

If you’re on PC, there’s literally a mod that does it for you. The way it works says there’s like a symbol to repair the wall. If you have the materials you can go ahead and just hit repairing it build it back for you right in front of your eyes.

[@ashleeaustin358]

If you're on a console did you know you could group select the whole wall. Place a fence post as close as you can to it first. (The fence post allows you to raise or sink the wall and if you don't have add ons or DLCs then the white picket fence post works best.) after placing the post then group select by holding down the select button. Just make sure your walls are not too close to other items you have placed or you will grab everything. It doesn't just work of floors but most everything. You can sink items into walls or the ground. There are some amazing videos on this and I just found out about it a couple weeks ago.

[@YurLackin23]

5 years ago and this video is still helping people, good job thanks for the video was struggling and frustrating trying to do it myself😂

Has this guy realized how much anxiety he has cured

[@icy2037]

Right

[@heythatsprettycool3991]

*Vietnam flashback*

[@justincooper5189]

Probably because he went through it himself, and didn't want anyone else to suffer.

[@scottmartin6135]

Preach!

[@Hwyjunkie326]

He likely has no idea and I've been wanting to rebuild the walls for awhile just couldn't figure out how or where to look for the foundation. Now I find this guy and he's helped in more ways than one

[@CH3NO2Semonious]

I just built my walls at the fort last night, and now I plan to tear them all out and rebuild it right! Thank you from a fellow OCD sufferer.

[@ryan___ryan2711]

I used concrete walls, with doors, for the NPCs who path through the broken castle walls, but this looks way smoother and probably has much more defense.

[@phillip0003]

did it a few times myself...lol

[@scottmartin6135]

Here I am, nearly ten years later, and JUST finding this? I gave up on fixing The Castle years ago! Hot damn, this great!

[@Chris54981]

good luck building your walls now

[@1FIVE1GAMING]

lol ur not the only one

[@DeadlyWinter]

Vault-Tec DLC just dropped and I got back into playing the game. Funny enough this is my first time taking Castle and I needed a step by step guide on how to fix the walls and yours was the easiest (and shortest) to follow, thanks man!

[@MrCodeslinger]

I'm glad to hear that you found it to be helpful. Thanks for watching!

[@jimpeck3340]

I thought I knew all the building tricks, but your "magic staircase" is brilliant! My castle walls, and I, thank you!

[@cipherzero1115]

I'm glad that I'm not the only OCD'd player that spent A LOT of time tediously rebuilding the Castle's wall. Awesome vid. I can appreciate another OCD builder's work. That was pretty much exactly what I figured out after a long night or two of trying to fortify my favorite settlement

[@orthodox-mp6hv]

And here I spent an entire afternoon frustrating myself with those damn walls.

[@spikelot567]

Outta the 2 hours of watching settlement buildings on the castle I found yours the simplest, yet the coolest. Thank you for the tips and tutorial sir, you just got yourself another subscriber for all the good content on the games I play!

[@MrCodeslinger]

Glad it was helpful, and I sure do appreciate the sub. Thanks for watching!

[@MdLanguage]

Beautiful. A video that will continue helping generations of players for eons.

[@LeTon75]

I love gamers like this that work on all this stuff and share it, well done m8 you’re a nice guy big thxs 👍

[@6stringshredder]

Definitely a huge help, I feel like an idiot now lol, such a simple fix. Getting ready to murder the institute and prepare for the attack, tried this before I fixed up the castle and died by my fusion core ejecting on me mid fight😅, so I was like, yeah... better fix up the castle first and try this again😅

[@travishutchins6149]

Posted 5 years ago still a huge help. All of my years of playing the game could not figure the castle build out, thanks!!

[@richardplatt4361]

I usually start at the bottom, in the middle. You can use a shack wall to stack the foundations perfectly. You actually can adjust both horizontally and vertically by group-selecting the wall after you've built it. Then I can place my gate, and I don't have gaps on the ends. I also play around with the wall placement until I get a relatively continuous wall all the way around that the Minutemen can patrol. Note: Make sure that you've completed "Big guns" before you start burying foundations because they can block the passages that you need to walk for that quest.

[@Neo_Psy]

Thanks for the video, very clear and easy to understand. Glad I looked this up before even trying. Pretty sure I saved myself hours of frustration. Took me 5 minutes to finish all the walls and it looks great. The workshop mode really takes some getting used to in this game lol

[@arislewis355]

such a huge help man. I've put countless hours into this game. Over 5 play-throughs and could NEVER figure out how to do this.

the amount of raider attacks I've had on castle because of this was crazy. thanks for the help

[@Bethgael]

Just as a heads up, as I discovered today, if you're repairing the walls with the barn or warehouse foundations (released since this vid was made, of course), this still works; with 1 thing better, 1 thing different and one thing not as good. The different; When doing the bottom layer, the wood stairs won't work, (different heights), so you need to snap a barn or warehouse stairs, then a quarter sized square to the back of the stairs, then a half floor in between the 1/4 square and the block. Then you can snap the warehouse/barn foundation as shown. The badder: the bottom row of warehouse/barn foundations won't snap to each other, so you'll need to move the stairs and repeat for each block. The gooder: the warehouse/barn foundations _will_ sink into those little holes, so if you muck up the first wood floor, it's not as dire. :D Thank you for the vid, MrC, still helpful all these years later!

[@talorw8930]

Absolute life saver 🙏 i wanted to use warehouse and noticed the height problem then i ssw this comment, thank you very much. Though how on earth did you figure that out lol?

[@Bethgael]

@@talorw8930 Part of it by accident? I wanted to use the warehouse/barn foundations over the originals because the "block" worked better for me on the sides with the walls (just a preference) over the smooth concrete. Had placed all the top row before going "duh, the stairs are a different height, you silly [Bethgael], that won't work." So I tried the different stairs out until I found what would work. The "oh, these _will_ go into the teeny holes!" was pure accident. :D

[@PerfectionessTresses]

I went straight to KZbin to figure this out! Got it on the first video.... now let’s see if I can master my build

[@CesarMelo17]

So much thank you for the tips. ❤

Can't get the first shack floor to line up like yours at all! Can tell already im in for the long haul with this build! Haha. Appreciate the video! I fully expect lots of new viewers in the coming days! 😊

[@FrogRaider1]

Awesome work as always. You make the best informational video's. Professionally done. Thank you.

[@MrCodeslinger]

+FrogRaider1 You bet Frog, thanks for sticking with me during the change over. I know I was spamming all of the subscribers with a shit ton of new FO4 videos there for a while so I appreciate you staying with me. I wound up losing about 300 subscribers while I was posting new FO4 vids, which really sucked. Thanks for watching!

[@FrogRaider1]

MrCodeslinger Sorry to hear that you deserve better you make quality product.

This makes me want to start the game again.

[@likesc]

That was fantastic, thanks for sharing this. I am working on it right now! :)

[@MrCodeslinger]

+likesc Excellent. That's great to hear. I hope it all lines up for ya. Also, in case you haven't played around with it much, something I didn't mention in the video, if you hold down your interact key/confirm key, on the PC it is E, and point at a group of things you can move them all together. So if you get a wall build that isn't quite straight you can straighten the whole thing out as one object with that. Thanks for watching!

[@ArrbzFX]

+MrCodeslinger I wish I had known you could move multiple things like that earlier, but better late than never. Thanks for all your videos, they're all super useful and straight to the point.

[@ETHRON1]

I use the far harbor tab... I put the building walls on the outside of the existing walls then use the foundations to rebuild the castle walls...it takes a bit more concrete but is well worth it.

[@VikinglordGamer]

Thank you so much this helped me alot and caused me less anxiety I had to change up the first wall a little cuz there were some gaps I saw under the founders the ground

[@susanrossouw847]

Thanks I've had great trouble in fixing stuff in general. This video helped a lot.

[@viktortoth8211]

[@RandomGuy-su7bi]

All praise the magic stairwells, for they allow us to do stuff

[@the_ultra_elite4812]

Tip : If you have the contraptions DLC use concrete walls on the top floors. It’ll will then allow you to snap concrete walls bellow the ones you place. Add some scaffolding and construction signs and you’ve made your self a newly constructed wasteland wall.

[@foxtrondemonprotector4051]

No joke this helped me so much for the hell of it I even dobbel the thickness of the walls by adding a nother layer

[@MrCodeslinger]

That's very kind of you to say. I'm glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!

[@nobodyimportant4778]

If you're wondering why you can't fix the fort normally, it's because the rubble is connected to a precombine. Removing it or tampering with it causes countless things to rendee as individual objects instead of one big one globally, meaning even as far as downdown boston by greentech genetics you're going to be getting like 10fps

[@ManBat420]

There is a really great mod that repairs the Castle, it's called something like that "Castle Rapaired" I think. It fixes the walls and takes away that massive heap of ruble. It Also opens up one new room by the kitchen and like 5 more rooms by the armory. There should have been a Minute Man mission where we could have restored it to that state.

[@DarkPhoenix203Ct]

this was a huge help, great job bro

[@andrewerwin9326]

[@bradhudson4111]

I followed this to a tee and it looks great just a follow up question I have, on that corner where you repair the 2 walls that are close together what’s the best way to make those 2 walls kinda connect on top without a weird gap?

[@TheRadicalPriest]

MrCodeslinger. your calm and clear description was a treat to behold and you weren't the slightest bit annoying with any part of your expert presentation.

I figured that out a long time ago when I was playing the game, only difference was I didn't use the floor with stairs so I could put the bottom blocks in, and I never used a wooden floor as a guideline to start from. pretty darn easy.

I used cement blocks for that messed up wall so far its sturdy and sound 😊
