A Deep Dive into the Pillar Glitch 🏛️ Fallout 4 No Mods Shop Class 

Right I wish I found him when fallout 4 came out

2024, still here

Same lol

Me too! 👍

Same here too!

Yup, every playthrough I forget this stuff and have to come back to learn it again!

@@NannyOggins same

Your comment made my day! 😊

Ohhh i just finished watching gopher's fallout 4 series and i am now building wooooo

By definition they are not people since they're not human. So that's a bit of a an odd philosophy since that's also not really a philosophy, just really an opinion at best? And so long as mammals, amphibians, reptiles and insects do all of the same messed up stuff(Rape, abuse, war, familial abandonment, murder, familicide, genocide, invasion and eradication, some/any of which are on par/above that of humans when it comes to numbers/cruelty of reasoning) as humans I wouldn't be so fast to say better. Especially when we're the only ones that end up feeling bad for the victims or believe that we can do better. Not saying to just go off killing other living things for no reason, just that more thought should be put into modern "philosophies"

@@anthonylongoria2638 my big ol' dog is sorry when she accidentally gives me a good one during play, so contrary to what you said, animals Can feel bad for inflicting pain. that was my only little criticism. you're right: animals are not human. but humans are of course animals

@@anthonylongoria2638 Animals do what they do because of their instincts and because they need to survive and protect themselves. It's nature. Humans, as they are able to think and making decisions however, do decide to do bad things and it's not necessarily even for reasons to survive. So animals are better creatures than humans most of the time.

Spencer Carr you and me both. We're "fashion late"

probally because of fallout 76 beta being out

RIGHT!, These guides are awesome and I'm itching to get them right(tried the rug with campfire didnt seem to wanna work), to make my settlements look great and well be fort knox to be raided(whether it be actual raiders or mutants or robots gotta be all inclusive you know lol)

Ya I'm even later ha lol but I love this and I played 76 farst and it SUCKS compared to this lol but that's my opinion

Shit I’m really late lol just started playing a week ago. You’re absolutely right though, his videos are a god send!

In addition to that, selecting the pillar tool as far above ground as you can, can help minimize the jumping effect.

Good tip, also getting close to the item and looking down when you select it can help too.

Really appreciate it guys. All those tips worked! #nomoreheadaches ;)

Hey Paul, you have a good understanding of the mechanics of this game. So, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! You have a few of us that follow you , that are familiar with the settlement building constrictions. So if you have a query on how things works, reach out. I'm still working on a game save that I can submit for your contest. But, if you have questions, we are here to help. I know you've helped me a couple of times. On a side note. I'm just curious. Has anyone had a CTD (crash to desktop) bug when attempting wiring? Mainly concerning the contraptions workshop addition of logic switches. I ran into as crash the other day, when I was trying to reconstruct the vault 42 automated rad cleaner setup. I haven't retried yet to see what happened, due to having a wiring bug while I had mods running. I hope that this isn't related. Another side note. . . . Paul, how is the best way to contact you. I would love to submit a build for your contest, but, I'm afraid that my situation may compromise my entry. Either way, I'd still like to submit something, just for show and tell.

Court, thanks for adding your value to the channel! I consider myself a master builder but there's _always_ more to learn. I'll be the first to admit that. I love learning new things from viewers as much as they might learn new things from me. That's what makes the Fallout 4 building community so cool. And I've met a lot of those cool people just in the last month alone. I haven't experienced any crash issues with the logic gates but the logic gates as well as the auto-arch are both videos coming up in my black diamond lessons. As for the NMSC challenge, I'm looking forward to seeing what you and others in the community come up with! There's no limitation on expertise. There's no rush either. At the midpoint of the deadline, I'll put up a dedicated contest rules video. In that video, I'll explain the best ways to submit links, such as through the Skooled Zone website.

Welcome to the Skooled Zone! I have way to many hours playing Fallout 4...lol Even so, I often find myself back in the Skooled Zone, either to freshen up on settlement build tips or gather creative inspiration ideas... His content is as relevant now as in the beginning... Lots of appreciation and love to the Skooled Zone channel and to its creator...💜

👍 Welcome to the Zone!

Right on, Mia. Yeah, my lessons should still help even if you use mods. :)

Hey thanks! Don't worry, I haven't abandoned my trivia walkthroughs. The No Mods Shop Class is only a mini-series. Next month I'll start working my walkthroughs back into the mix. More explained in an upcoming announcements video!

Awesome! And if you want to be able to open the door from either side, this video might be useful: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-syC2ACXvwm0.html

@@SkooledZone Thanks I'll be sure to check it out, I think from the description I already ended up using the xor gate setup

@@SkooledZone Pinned comment I mean, just about to start watching the video you recommended

Sorry for the typos did proof read it :(

Hey cool, David. Welcome aboard!

Hey really appreciate it. And welcome aboard! =)

👍

Definitely. I talk a lot about that during my trivia walkthroughs. And if you're a baseball fan, you'll like this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8A29WKefmVA.html

Thanks Amanda. We figured it out in a separate video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-D76HR039mDI.html

@@SkooledZone yay! Thank you for linking the video, I’ll definitely go watch it today!!!

😁

You bet Brian. Thanks for watching!

@@SkooledZone I tried rebuilding the Castle walls myself by just doing it and it looked ok but nothing I'd submit for a prize. Then i did it like you did in the video and it looks amaze-balls! Thanks again! Do you have a skilled zone Facebook page? I'm always talking you up on the 'Fallout 4 Settlement building' page.

@@briandamrath4912 Thanks Brian. I don't have a FB page but I'm on Twitter and Instagram. =)

Right on 👍

Great explanation!

Skooled Zone Thanks! I haven't seen any videos on the subject, but it fits with my experimentation. I'm sure others have figured it out also.

It is annoying if you don't know what's going on. If, for instance you are trying to move a row of concrete foundations, you might need to select the last placed foundation and either cancel the move or replace it. After that, the group select should function as it's supposed to. Sometimes, however, you will need to select your "pillar" and either delete it or replace it. This seems to be connected to a group of items that were "snapped" too close to an object that was placed in a "red zone". For instance, if I place a foundation at Starlight drive-in, next to the screen, and then snapped another foundation next to it. The second foundation may not have been able to be placed normally, due to being too close to the screen, or too much ground interfering. That's when you want to try and select the upper-most portion of your grouping, to keep it from "jumping", or turning "red" when you try and move it. Keep in mind that uneven ground, in certain circumstances, is just another "object, and not ground. Small hills with trees are an example of this. They are not part of the ground. Rather they were place onto of the "ground". This is where having certain mods like "scrap everything" comes in handy. It let's you see what is actually considered "ground". This is also the case with certain decals, such as leaf or debris piles. I know this is a "no mods" tutorial, but having an understanding of how the game mechanics work, helps indefinitely. I gamed unmodded until just recently, and the mods I did/do use, showed me a little bit about how the game handles certain things. And there is no harm in knowing how the system works, to enable you to work around the limitations. This is how the rug/pillar glitch and settlement limit glitches were found, after all.

😄👉 🥟🐦🐦

Cheers back! 😊

Isn't that a contradiction? How can you grab something 'as high as you can' while looking 'straight down'?

Thanks man. Really appreciate that! 👊

Right on Ronell. Glad you finally found the Skooled Zone. ;)

Skooled Zone mann i got some classes to catch up on i hope you dont test us too soon

👊

Much appreciated and will do!

Haha, here ya go: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iauUrvDUToA.htmlm32s

👷👍

Thanks Gayle. Yeah I gave the solution as tip #8 in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-D76HR039mDI.html

I've tried that before and you can't seem to make it go down any further than a single pillar.

Tip #5 of this video might help you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sDza5oblD1g.html

Skooled Zone I know how to bypass it, I’m just saying it’ll require a lot of that. Because the build limit gets met ridiculously quickly at the castle.

Very cool. And you know, a lot of these lessons still work with mods so...

Turns out selecting it, deselecting it and then selecting again solves the problem, hehe...

Right on 😉

I covered that for consoles in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sDza5oblD1g.html However, for PC's I'm not so sure since I play on console. It's whatever the equivalent of the A button and the bumpers are on an Xbox One. Feel free to ask over on the subreddit, they're good about helping fellow travelers: AfterSkooled.club

@@SkooledZone Thanks for getting back to me. Your answer pushed me in the right direction and I found that, on a PC, you select an item with "E" (that's normal) but you hold it and then use the mouse wheel to move it forward and back....voila! Now, if I could only move it up and down, right and left....back to GOOGLE.

Totally. I'm not sure those were out yet when I first made the video. But those are all I use now. ;-)

Cool, Lora. Glad to help. As for removing bodies, most can be dragged outside of settlement boundaries and will stay out there. There are some that respawn, and for those, I do like you said and build things over them when I can. They usually don't clip through in my games. But otherwise, it just comes with the territory. Mods will do it. But for non-modders like me, I usually don't build at the more annoying settlements. LOL. There's so many locations. So instead, I focus my attention on the better locations since I'll never have time to build at every settlement anyway. ;-)

A used copy of the _Game of the Year_ edition is really cheap at your local game store and it has all the DLC. =)

Really appreciate that Belinda! 😊

Do you have the DLCs?

Should work on any platform.

Actually, that turned out not to be solution. The solution is to tap on the item you're about to select and deselect it. Then select it again. It's called _refocusing_ and it works every time to solve the problem.

🤓

Yeah, I sort of talk about the issues with group selecting starting at 22:49. As for how you push things forward and up with the controller, I cover all that in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sDza5oblD1g.html :)

Yup, see my original tips video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sDza5oblD1g.html

Skooled Zone. Awesome! Thank you!

I actually have a video on elevator tips: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FpXVAMmo2WM.html
