Fallout 76 Camp Tutorial | Custom Stairpost Stairs | Guide // Building // Staircase

Here is a new way to look at stairs. This technique is especially handy for those who want custom stairs in the form of half stairs or L-Shape stairs. I hope you find this tutorial useful!

[@veronikawilson29]

Oh em gee! I spent about an hour trying to do this and I absolutely love the results! These are brilliant moonlight! Thank you!

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Fantastic news! I personally love the look myself. I was worried that no one would try it because it's tedious, but comments and DMs are rolling in from people who have tried it and love it! Thank you so much!!

Great idea! Wish I had those column ones for this.

[@Wolfnstone]

Awesome work as always man. Great technique ❤

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Much appreciated Wolf! I hope people can find it useful!

[@dazzmead007]

Fantastic Moonlight! Seems so simple and you explain it really well. Also, I really need to get into blueprints they seem to be a fantastic tool!

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Yes, blueprints are one of the best tools in the game! If you ever need any, just let me know. Bunny has a ton of good ones too!

[@KanataSkye]

Love the tutorial. Must try this for custom stairs looks so much easier to do that merging countless tables together.

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

It is easier and cleaner. If anyone can put this info to good use, it's you Kanata! Your builds are awesome!

[@KanataSkye]

Thank you, but I always feel like an amateur besides you guys. Might provide me with a little push to build something from scratch been lacking inspiration recently.

[@lisap9592]

Very nice, so simple but creative! It looks like something even I can do! (It will just take me 3x as long :) Thanks so much Moonlight, appreciate you’re sharing this!👍

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Thank you for taking a look. Lining it up perfectly for the blueprint takes a while, and some patience. However, once it's done, you won't need to do it again, and you can have cool custon stairs in virtually any build. I really appreciate the warm feedback!

[@lisap9592]

@@MoonlightCowboyGaming Can’t wait to try this! I’ve been ‘collecting’ items and ideas I see builders use, but have yet to put them to together and build my ‘masterpiece’😂 Thanks again!☺👍

If this doesnt proof that we just need half stairs then idk what does lol, shouldnt have to spend half my budget on stairs

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

The stairs in the image costs 3.2% budget.

[@sarap9828]

Thanks Moonlight! Great idea. I'm definitely trying this in the ca p I'm working on right now.

absolutely fire! Thank you for this tutorial it's fantastic.

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Absolutely! Glad you found it helpful!

[@greengrass28g]

Sweet! The Winding Path posts look the best. That is much easier and faster than using Wavy Willard walls for steps. Now do a spiral.

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Haha!! I think my budget would spiral lol!! Thank you for the shout! You're the best builder I know, and that's real talk.

[@darkforest03]

Wow, you are a genius👍 But isn't this method taking a lot of camp budget? Appreciate your effort. Good job❤

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Yes, it is a bit of a budget drain. But for smaller builds or builds with lots of open space, it is a feasible blueprint. It's always nice to have options when building, especially for half wall heights. Thank you for checking it out!

[@KentuckyRanger]

Another awesome tutorial! I'll definitely be using this in the future!

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Thank you KR!! 💖

[@Nympoo1]

I love this, and I have also never seen this done before and im a right camp hopper too. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us how to do this and thank you too for being so very generous sharing your hacks ♥♥♥

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

My favorite part of Fallout 76 is visiting someone's camp who had put in the work to learn the tricks and build a Camp that not only looks amazing, but one that builders are proud of. Being a small part of that journey is my end game. Thank you for all of the wonderful feedback you give me on my content!

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Thank you PH! I plan on doing most of my tutorials this way going forward. It's actually faster than typing it all out. I uses to use text every time, because I'm sensitive to the hearing impared. But one of my best friends (who is very hearing impaired) told me that he can just turn on subtitles. So yeah, I learned something new!

[@cydex580]

Thanks for this, looking forward to trying it! Any tips on precision placement with mouse + keyboard? I find it's nearly impossible to line up large items.

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

I wish I could say I've used a mouse/keyboard setup, so this advice is based on theory. One thing is for certain, try doing it without the mouse, it's way too unstable. In freecam, I would get the bottom of your screen lined up perfectly with a line in the roof, so that is perfectly even. I would then stop using the mouse once in position. From there, I would switch to your movement keys on the keyboard. If possible, lower the movement speed on then. This means you can only go left/right/forward/backward, which is what you want. For context, when I'm doing this with a controller, I don't use the right joystick. Place the first pillar, then use your keyboard to put it down right next to it. If you lined it up well enough in the beginning, it should go perfectly next to it. As soon as you place the next one, then go directly behind it using only forward or backward. Keep repeating this in a snake pattern until you place all of the posts.

[@cydex580]

@@MoonlightCowboyGaming Thank you! I hadn't even considered using the directional keys. Been building for years with the mouse and doing a lot of cursing! :D

Thanks buddy

[@FalloutKurier6]

Awesome tutorial. What are those brown stair posts called?

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Palace of the Winding Path set

[@TheRealBoomslice]

Only downside is the Camp budget. Looks amazing though! I never understood why they gave us such ugly stairs in the game (for the most part). Not only that but what on earth is the snapping with staircases in this game lol

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

The stairs in the thumbnail took about 18 flamingos, or 3.6% of the total camp budget. It is a little pricey, but not terrible. And to your point, I would love some half stairs in the game! Thanks for checking it out!

[@mattdigenova4339]

This is awesome thank you! How did you get the slanted wall on the end result?!

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

I used catwalks off of one of the foundations to place it.

[@MrParadigmshift]

I want to love the housing of fallout . But, it makes no logical sense . So, problem . LoL 🤣 amazing video . Thanks for the design ideas as well. 8 yr vet of ESO . Crazy how different the housing in the 2 . ESO super refined and no problems merging anything . Fallout you need a duck ? ❤ Respect .

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

I did ESO for about 5 years. I pretty much quit when FO76 came out. I have respect for the amazing housing in ESO. The way you can rotate pieces is something I'm very jealous of. I think the reason I prefer the building in Fallout is simply because it's not instanced. Anyone can just walk up to your camp, and that is huge to me. We deal with all of the nuances because there's nothing like a random player walking up to your camp in awe.

[@whytheseaisboilinghot]

Man it sucks like everything says that it's intersecting issues when I try to place posts underneath the ones to form this actual stairs and I'm not able to change one style of post to another style which I was sure that that used to be an option that was available but I guess not. I tried removing the floor and to get them to snap just directly to the post above it into the ground but it says it's intersecting with an existing object and I don't know what to do

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

In the tutorial, it states that some posts might give you issues. When this happens, use a flametosser to destroy the posts. Then the foundation will then snap through them to other foundations. Also keep in mind that they may struggle to penatrate hard rocks or roads. Also, if you're on PS, I can show you in game.

[@visualsiren89x]

I'm confused so to start with u do the first one with the duck Not right up against the posts ? Becos u don't actually explain that , then it clips to the part where the posts have the duck in the middle against the posts ????

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Sorry for the confusion. The duck... well any small camp floor decor item for that matter... can be placed anywhere for the blueprint to work. The small camp item is the anchor point for the blueprint, so if it's farther away, it may give you more reach for your blueprint, but it will be harder to line it up. If you blueprint the item closer to the posts, you will have more control, but less range.

[@tigerheartproductions8917]

This is fantastic! I made lastnight walk up easy. But I can't get it to snap to a foundation or into it. Any suggestions?

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

Try destroying the stairs, then placing your foundation, then repairing the stairs. That should work just about every time. I tested it with all three Atom Shop stairposts.

[@tigerheartproductions8917]

@MoonlightCowboyGaming I did but now that I think back. I might have still had the small black poles on top hanging in mud air. If that doesn't work, I will start from scratch. I did go one step higher. You mentioned you could but wasn't for the current video. So I may go back and not add the one extra tier if the other suggestion doesn't work.

[@tigerheartproductions8917]

*mid air

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

@@tigerheartproductions8917 Let me know if that works!

[@tinaj9038]

What are those brown stairs at the end of the video and can u do a tutorial on a curved staircase

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

I have tutorials on spiral staircases using catwalks. As for the brown pillars, those came with the Winding Path Bundle.

[@tinaj9038]

@MoonlightCowboyGaming I should have been more specific,can u do one with the pillars 👍

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

I likely will at some point!

[@ThatsCrazyBroAnyways]

How much build space does this take up?

[@MoonlightCowboyGaming]

That all depends on how wide you want the stairs to be, and how tall. In the stairs that I made in the thumbnail, they took a combined 16 flamingos. Each post takes 1 flamingo, and there are 16. That staircase was 3.2% of the total camp budget.

[@choppersghost5439]

Ok. Firstly, AWESOME video. Thank you. Now, my autistic gemini twin, needs to ask: HOW do we get those nice 'timber' look stair treads you have ? ( but didn't show ) Peace 😌🤌🙏🙌

That came with the Wind Path bundle. I'm glad you like the tutorial!!
