You should be doing commentary for sporting events, I'd love to be watching a match and hear you saying "Okay he managed to get the ball, that's fine, that's grand!"

[@epicman-er6do]

lmao. you just made my day

[@norespawns]

+Poppy Branton haha that would be some wonderfully British commentary.

[@Jess-it8bp]

+norespawns that'd be reminiscent of Terry Wogan's Eurovision commentaries!

[@GProsperity]

@@norespawns I think dude has his accents mixed up lol

[@alec7568]

I made what I think is a really cool bar in sanctuary by placing a bus on the backside of one of the empty foundations, decorating the inside of the bus as if was the behind the bar area and sinking the bar shop itself into the bus doorway. I surrounded the outside of the foundation with outer wall caps and made a doorway by glitching in two destroyed doors to make what looks like western saloon style double doors.

[@jzargo7443]

My goal for my survival play-through is a small concrete military bunker with artillery, and a bar/saloon at every single settlement. Needless to say, your timing is impeccable!

[@wavy6775]

That would look badass

[@FallOut-zm6rd]

Watch Real-Time Commanders if that's what you want. He is AMAZING at building military stuff

[@noodlepotreal]

I see "your timings impeccable" and think FUCC OFF PRESTO, YOUR NOT MY BESTO

[@altvertue347]

Can't believe I found you only 5 days ago! You're so helpful

[@AncaV]

Isn't he though? And likewise for me. Really glad I found him.

[@pandathebeautifulbastard5769]

I found him when started on his yourtube channel

[@jessicarabbi5216]

I could listen to you talk all day. I turn your single shops into a two story small one person home for the shop owner.. sometimes the shop keeper doesn’t sleep there though 🤷🏼‍♀️.

[@Creator_of_sexl1]

It also depends what they're good at, like if you see someone that look like a shooter type, he may not enjoy it as much but willing to do it, because the happiness keep things on track because you might have to change someone into doing that job and I understand it may not seem like it but it was something anyone pass and the game doesn't tell u because u pretty much have to listen what they're

[@samanthawolden291]

This video is genius! I haven't done many bars yet and never really knew how to get the rug glitch working with shops. Having the visual nailed it for me -- you're awesome. Keep it up.

[@mrthewubbie]

If you haven't done it yet, you can increase the luminance of neon by stacking the letters, and change the hue by adding letters of a different color. You can subtley change letters to be more realistic.

[@InsertaNombreAqui]

Those are really cool designs, I'm TOTALLY rippin' you off!

[@louisdellalucca4166]

Once again, your videos always help me when I'm feeling stuck. Thanks norespawn!

[@danniclark]

This format is really easy to watch. Thank you!

[@Cag93]

Always with the epic (and lore friendly) build tips! Very glad to be subbed to your channel :)

[@falloutshemasterp5276]

That is really cool. I love the idea of using the rug glitch with stores. Keep up the awesome work. I really enjoy your videos.

[@Captianmex1C0]

I recently downloaded a shitton of mods to make the wasteland actually feel like a wasteland with no hope of life. And it's made each settlement feel more and more Wholesome, Like a Growing community Is flourishing. And with the recent Bar I Made, It actually feels like it's a Hangout for people to forget their struggles, Especially with how everyone gathers there at night before going to bed

[@Anakin_0YT]

Okay

[@youreveningcoat]

Mate, you're the best console settlement making youtuber that i've found and that first bar you built was top class.

[@FiveSolasMap]

I love this! It's the exact layout I use for shops after ton of experimentation. The difference is that I place an apartment on top to condense living space.

[@kambennett2487]

Dude, you're a genius. I build settlements all the time, and that tip with the rug made my day.

[@ColinSnell]

Firstly, congrats on the new job, sir 👍 Secondly, fantastic use of the concrete windows! Thirdly, for lining up the prefabs on top of the foundations, I've seen a video (can't remember who it was by) that saves some mucking about with trying to get the prefabs lined up by eye. Basically, build a foundation, snap the shack stairwell to the foundation, snap your prefab to the top of the stairwell so that it is directly above the foundation, go up the stairs & stand in the middle of the prefab, remove the stairwell, look straight down at the floor of the prefab, select it and you should drop straight down along with the prefab. Voila! No funky snapping problems with prefabs. I've used this method a few times and it is a bit more accurate than trying to line everything up by hand.

[@tilarium2]

Love watching building ideas! I'm going to incorporate this into my next game!

[@sarahbaldwin626]

yea I love those doors too :) they're the best especially for shops & the first bar really is genius! glad I got to see it, will use for sure

[@speedomrecords]

These have been so helpful. Thankyou.

[@evadeus72]

You're a marvel, Davey. Nice, simple and elegant designs. Thanks for the tips. Cheers.

[@somanyraquazas3167]

I've found that using the busses added in the wasteland workshop dlc in the structures section make great pre-existing structures to base bars and shops off if you build off the top of them and use the coach as a house for the vendor :)

[@rpetercrockett]

Yet another to add to my "how-to" collection.

[@WaltBTB]

This is excellent, my man! I just stumbled across this video and I'm very impressed and plan to do this myself :)

[@Snuggybugger]

Another great video, thanks for the tips!

[@EvanSchatz]

Fantastic stuff

[@RaptuneHiDef]

Can't wait for the next video

[@Imedge6]

Thank you now I have to make this for all my shop !

[@kazski6576]

Awesome job love your builds

[@12xu27]

Dude. This is pretty sweet.

[@MrTehPuppy]

Love your build techniques. Usually I'm a quiet lurker just learning from your tips but I thought I'd mention. at 3:20 you talk about not being able to put railings next to door walls. I've found iif you put the railing in before the door wall though you can indeed get them next to each other. I found this while doing a peice by piece recreation of the largest wooden house prefab (did the recreation pace by piece so that I could use different wall and floor options. When I got to the second floor segment I found if I added a floor section on top of the roofing bit, put down the railings and then removed the floor from off of the roof I could indeed put the door wall in there. It's a minor thing and I'm sure my words are a bit muddied, it'd be easiest if you just set down the big wooden prefab house and tried to duplicate it yourself to see what I mean exactly. Anyway, cheers on this video, quite like it.

[@potemadunne1350]

Those look awesome. I'm going to build one after I get home tomorrow. Enjoy working, make lots of quiche.

[@minemenice6530]

always find it annoying, you spend so much time building but their is no real interactions with the shops from external npcs

[@seadelirious9838]

Settlers will sit at chairs near your bar and enjoy a drink

Ah the bit about flipping the door around so it opens the opposite way just blew my mind. I've been frustrated with doors opening the wrong for the last day or so haha

[@Creator_of_sexl1]

How differnt was the game in the early update and hope you have a wonderful day

[@itsjuststeve2551]

Good luck at your New Job Bro

[@vynxie]

I wish we could have those square wall ends that Bethesda has access to and places on shacks in the wasteland. Those, the 2x long rickety fence (like the ones in Bunker Hill that line a walkway), single prefab poles and raised floor blocks would add so much more character to these dinky little structures.

[@Sir_Panicaim]

I'm going to studie Fallout 4 Settlement builds for the next 5 months to make the best Settlement in Fallout76

[@yabbolabbo9913]

Its so different

[@FelipeLeonRandom]

hahaha Davey has the best intro ever!!!! love that!

[@michellep.4837]

Nice job! I made my little "shopping plaza", and now I wish I would've watched this sooner!😟 Yours look a lot cooler :D

[@SarDeliac]

I'm still using the first model of your shops. I really like that you're using more prefabs now because I never think to use those; thank you for the motivation to explore that tab. Once I figure out how to make higher-quality videos of my builds than the crap I've got up now, I'll send you a link. ;)

[@jude6414]

Wait a minute...

[@alexcameron_]

great ideas cheers

[@melissarogers301]

Love your work and creative sense. Your builds posses the realism I aim for in my builds! #1bestdavey

[@Anakin_0YT]

Won’t let me out the roof for the shop

[@joshuamartin2934]

hey mate keep yah cool your work is good. pointer for being to the point as they say, and props on your props buddy everything is clean but has that catchy fallout 4 vibe. question.. how do you mix concrete wood and steel together cleanly? do i see a crazy elaborate power armor workshop that has a tall ceiling? or maybe a one stop shop and diner strip mall who knows?! anyhow keep the good work coming!

[@tenatopps]

good luck tomorrow !!

[@Ross74h]

Oh I like the concrete one Davey. become a bit obsessed with it since it came out. I will have to use it in my little shopping centre / market area in Jamaica Plain. not and never will be a twitter user though!

[@LiamBrown-db1js]

I copied the build but I extended it some more for the bar mans bedroom and a backyard chill spot when he’s on breaktime 😂❤ it’s looking really good

[@thebsworth]

I use the mesh concrete window for my stores, it works too.

[@joeyvarvarigos2985]

oh boy, I need help with bars and me clinics and "relaxing areas" thanks!!

[@miguelrodriguez7074]

Noice job

[@peesopol]

very good tks for technique and vidéos

[@FroscoToppings]

Good job. Hancock and Cait would approve. Oh, and Preston. From his comments, he seems to like his booze (which he probably drinks while he sends you off to help settlements).

[@brianthegreat5994]

he drinks to forget

[@JamesKPolkIII]

Dom Elfkicker lmao so accurate

[@Trappindotcom]

some of the rug glitch do still work but, not the one displayed @ 11:35 You cant place the "outdoor version" of a shop onto a rug at all. It will only turn green on bare ground or foundation blocks. the build still works fine with indoor version of shop. (on pc version). Also he doesn't use any modded items in this video, the neon letters are from wasteland workshop dlc.

[@norespawns]

All of the rug glitches 100% still work

[@Altair6306]

For things like this is why I hate bethesda so much, intstead of fixing actual game breaking bugs, they try fixing the rug glitch, its like they want players to be pissed at them...

[@yohkodevilhunter8292]

Nice work Dave. So I noticed you only have two people in the settlement. Will more settlers come after you build shops and homes or do you still have to setup a beacon or use send function?

[@norespawns]

+I Felici beacon - but I won't do that until after its finished so they don't get in the way.

[@vilotarian]

Good luck tomorrow :) Also, are you gonna be using mods once they're out? I'd love to see what you could do with everything in the game at your disposal.

[@jeremysharp3555]

This doesn't have anything to do with your vid but I'd call it a pro tip. If you liked the Sat antenna from the mission to get into the Institute, I recommend building them or a few at all the settlements before you teleport. I wish I did. I built 1 at Sanctuary & spectacle island. The 1 at spectacle still exists. Oh, the 1st bar you built in your vid was nice. Gunna use that 1. Have you tried using the shack flr stairs to place a floor piece on top of your flr. I use it to place 2 small flr pieces so I can line up the prefabs & wood windows. I give credit to Jug for that. Check his 50 tips video! Enough from my blabbering mouth. I learned a lot about settlements watching your vids. Thanks

[@norespawns]

+Jeremy Sharp I actually build those antennas myself; the extra ones don't get destroyed. It's worth noting that you cannot scrap any of them - so maybe sure you're happy with them in the settlement (I say this because that massive teleporter was so annoying I ended up reloading an earlier save)

[@TheAciddragon069]

so last night i discovered you can snap wood walls to the face of concrete walls to hide them a bit

[@emmerichsanur]

thanks that great

[@xyzabc4754]

Have you seen the small shops around the church in Salem? Itd be cool to see you recreate some of them (if you wanted) theyre all small, simple and junky as well :D

[@evansheehan9258]

Nice bar,but I need like a big model,or at least two different ones. Right when the sun goes down,all my settlers kinda cram into a single bar and it's a full house,but kinda too full.

[@SarDeliac]

+Evan Sheehan Put plenty of chairs and couches around the bar and your settlers will use them. Some will stand (reading a paper, having a cup of coffee) but most will sit down or wander around the seats.

[@antimonycup7066]

You're a veritable Bob Ross.

[@joshuamartin2934]

omg this is awesome. we just gona put a happy little patio right here yasss and we will give him some patio chair friends..

Excuse me, are the screen doors and custom neon lights a mod, or an update because I haven't played fallout 4 in a while and definitely don't remember them

[@MrChrispy360]

so with shops, bars built like that do the settlers actually use them?

[@rejest05]

+MrChrispy360 I made a two storey bar/restaurant in the barn in Sunshine Tidings Co-Op and settlers indeed chill in there from time to time! :D

+norespawns you are by far my favorite you tuber I spend so much time watching your videos it is crazy and when u respond to my comments I feel very honored because you probably have so many fans and I was just wondering if maybe you could do a spectacle island storage container build and a coastal cottage build

[@norespawns]

+Emmett Larmon I'm going to get back to to spectacle island eventually - as there's so much to do there. I was thinking of turning those containers into a scrappy motel.

[@drewweber9287]

He didn't to make it look more beat up and match the other buildings

[@OiDeath]

+Drew Weber I mean he put the exact same railing right next to each other. He usually varies them up if he wants that scrappy look. Two of the same fence never get put side by side unless it's like his guest posts on the castle walls.
